  6. Managing and Administering • Locally Install  • WordPress is designed in a manner to enable you to install it on your own web server/ shared hosting account that renders weblog completey under your control. If required, you are allowed to access/modify everything concerning weblog. • Portable Core  • The wordpress related files and their placements are highly configurable.For example, if you want your weblog at http://example.com (public_html - the public "root" of your webserver or hosting account) and you want to store the wordpress related files and directory tree in http://example.com/wordpress (public_html/wordpress), you can! • UTC-friendly  • WordPress lets you define time as an offset from UTC (Universal Coordinated Time), so all the elements related to time are stored in the database as GMT values- a universal standard. Furthermore, this lets you display correct time on your weblog, irrespective of the location of host server.

  7. User management  • WordPress makes use of user-levels for controlling user-access to various key features, thereby enabling you to restrict the individual user’s ability to create/modify content in your weblog, by changing their user-level. • User profiles  • Users on your weblog can create a profile detailing their email address, IM aliases etc, if required. Users can also control the manner their details are displayed on their weblog in. • Easy installation and upgrade  • The famous 5 minute install of WordPress is simply unmatched when it comes to ease of use and simplicity. It’s quite simple to upgrade WordPress to newer versions. Furthermore, it doesn’t take much time for installation! • Dynamic page generation  • You don’t need to rebuild the pages every time your weblog needs to be updated. It’s quite easy and fast to update your weblog or its design. Furthermore, minimal storage space is required on the server for this. • Internationalization and Localization  • Creating a weblog localized as per your choice, and delivering in a language you like is easy. For translating and localizing the WordPress to its full extend, the gettext method is used.

  8. Publicizing Your Work • Feeds  • WordPress fully supports the RSS 1.0 (aka RDF), RSS 2.0 and ATOM specifications. Moreover, just any page on your weblog has an associated feed that your readers can subscribe to - there's a feed for the latest posts, for categories, comments, well, like we said earlier, for anything you want. The easier your readers find it to view and check the various sections of your weblog, the simpler it will be for you to convey your message. WordPress also fully supports RSS 2.0 with enclosures, so adding mp3 files (such as podcasts) to your RSS feeds is a snap. • Cruft-free Permalinks  • You can ensure that the URLs for all pages in your weblog conform to a standard, cruft-free system, and all the links are structured, sensible, and understandable to human and machines including search engines. Clean URLs are essential for SEO and a better user-experience. • Inter-blog Communication  • In an increasingly vast and connected world, WordPress comes ready for TrackBack and PingBack - two great ways of connecting to other weblogs, and allow them to do the same.

  9. Customizing the Design Template Driven Design  WordPress uses templates to generate the pages dynamically enabling you to control the presentation of content by editing the templates using the Template Tags and Template Editor tool. You can also edit your templates and other related files with the help of the file editor in your browser without downloading and uploading the files.

The PHP and HTML code in themes can also be edited for more advanced customizations. You can also create and share your own themes.

  11. Customizing the Design Plugins  WordPress richplugin architecture allows users and developers to extend its functionality beyond the features that come as part of the base install.

Users can rearrange widgets without editing PHP or HTML code.

Creating Content • Password protection  • If you want to share any article with some of the people only, you can make it password protected. • Post Slug  • It is used to clean the PermaLinks to create more search engine and user friendly URLs. • Post to the future  • You can write a post today and have it appear on the weblog at a future date, automatically. • Multi paged posts  • If your post is too long than you can cut it up into pages, so your readers don't have to scroll to the end. • File/picture uploading  • You can upload pictures or files, and link to them or display them in your articles. You can also create thumbnails of pictures when you upload them.

  13. Creating Content • Categories  • Organize your posts into categories, and sub-categories, and sub-sub categories... • Emoticons  • WordPress is smart enough to convert character smileys, like ":)" into the graphical image counterparts. • Save Drafts  • Save your unfinished articles, improve them later, publish when you're done. • Previewing Posts  • Before you "Publish" your post, you can look at the preview for the article to check if everything is the way you want it. • Desktop Tools  • You can also use desktop blogging tools instead of browser to update your weblog.

  15. Archives and Search Archiving  After a long period of blogging, it extremely matters how well you organize your blog posts. WordPress offers various options to display the archives of your blog, containing all the old posts. You can easily link your archive posts to any of the post or page in your blog and alos you can opt from yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, category-wise or author-wise archives. Searching  WordPress has a functional built-in search tool, which allows visitors to your blog to search for terms they are interested in, and the search-hilite plugin that ships with WordPress can highlight their search terms, so it is even easier for them to find what they were searching for. In addition to this, the plugin also does the same for someone who arrives at your blog by clicking at a search result in a search engine, such as google. All in all, searching is fun, with WordPress.

Notification  WordPress can keep you in the loop by sending you an email each time there is a new comment or a comment awaiting moderation.
