It might be easier to say what this guide isn’t, rather than what it is. It isn’t an in depth look at every single function available within the WordPress dashboard. Nor is it a guide to help you develop or modify WordPress themes. It's an easy to follow WordPress manual that will help you to get an overall understanding of how you use the various features within the WordPress Dashboard to keep your website or blog updated. The official WordPress Codex is great if you want to get really involved in developing your own WordPress theme or modifying your site with plugins, but it can be a bit daunting for those users who just want a simple guide to using the Content Management side of WordPress or just need to update their site pages every so often. The Easy WP Guide will teach you how to add content to your website and keep it updated, simply and easily. This version has been completely updated for use with WordPress 4.2.
