We have explained this tutorial in Urdu and Hindi So that you can easily understand. What the heck is wp-content?! This may be your first response as a WordPress tenderfoot or in the event that you for the most part work with WordPress through the backend. All things considered, the normal site proprietor invests the majority of their energy in the dashboard. It bodes well. All things considered, you can play out exceedingly significant errands from here and can deal with your whole site without editing documents, move information around or perform different monotonous assignments. If you went above and beyond and introduced WordPress yourself, you may even know about its unmistakable parts: the database and WordPress establishment.
Be that as it may, except if you are a designer or somebody who likes to assume responsibility for each part of your site, you are presumably not personally acquainted with the WordPress record structure and every one of its documents and envelopes. One of its most focal pieces: the wp-content envelope. Therefore, in this article we need to investigate only that. We will discuss where wp-content is found, its motivation, what it contains and what it permits you to do.
Posts, Pages, Custom Post, Types, and Post Formats Explained
There are two essential types of content in WordPress: Posts and Pages. Every other sort of content are gotten from one of those two types (by and large Posts). So what are Posts and Pages (and for what reason do I continue promoting them!)?
Posts
When WordPress first came out, the main content sort was a Post. That was the manner in which a great deal of blogging apparatuses worked in 2003 when WordPress 0.75 came out. A post was, basically, a blog entry. It’s that feeling of connectedness that is basic to get posts. Posts are constantly associated with one another. All posts are associated with one another by time, and we can see this through the time sensitive chronicles inside WordPress (day, month, and year). You can return and page through all the posts you’ve composed (and distributed), in light of when they were distributed. Posts are likewise associated by creator, classification, and tag. Nonetheless, if more than one individual is composing on a site, each post could have various creators, classifications, or labels from some other post; you can’t state that all posts are associated with one another along these lines. Just to make things somewhat more befuddling, all posts must be in any event one classification. Recollect in Chapter 6, “Setting Up your WordPress Site Right the First Time,” that when we took a gander at the Writing settings, there was the Default Category, and it was set to Uncategorized. That is it. On the off chance that you don’t allot a post to a class when you distribute it, it will be doled out to the default classification. This is, coincidentally, why we’ll alter the name of the default classification to something (anything) other than Uncategorized. In the event that you neglect to dole out a post to a classification, the default classification ought to in any event be something significant.
Alright, we should recap. Posts are content that are associated with one another through time (all posts), classification, labels, and creator. That is the key. Posts are bits of content that have a relationship to different bits of content. You can generally take a gander at the “Document” page for a creator, class, tag, or date and see all the Posts that coordinate those conditions. “Chronicle” is in cites since it isn’t so much a “document” as capacity as it seems to be “file” as a rundown. Having the option to list all the posts of one specific sort is incredibly, ground-breaking and permits you to do some sharp things with your content. Later in the section, I’ll talk about these sharp approaches to sort out your content utilizing posts and pages (and other content types). This is critical to consider in case you’re utilizing WordPress to fabricate a site. Presently we should discuss pages.
Pages
Pages are what individuals will in general consider as “normal pages.” They are planned to be (moderately) static and can remain solitary and still have setting and significance. The best instances of pages are the About Me and Contact pages. On the off chance that you get to those pages on a site, they bode well completely all alone. They needn’t bother with some other bits of content for setting or to bode well. Pages can’t be doled out to a classification or tag, and despite the fact that pages do have distributed dates and creators; you can’t see all pages in a rundown (effectively) utilizing both of those. Pages aren’t simply exhausting old content, however. They have stunts of their own—page layouts. Page layouts are utilized to do things like have content without sidebars, have a Page that showcases Posts, and numerous other cool things we’ll see all through this part and book. The catch is that Page layouts are characterized by the theme you’re utilizing. A few themes have loads of Page formats; others just one (the default one). Pages were created as a reaction to WordPress clients who needed content that could remain solitary outside of the surge of blog entries and keep up a spot in the webpage. We as a whole needed Contact and “About pages” that we could keep outside of the progression of posts and be utilized for content that didn’t coordinate pleasantly with what a blog entry was or is. Pages were likewise the primary things to be maneuvered into the early ways we took care of menus.
Custom Post Types
WordPress 3.0 (Thelonious) didn’t simply get menus, new administrator interfaces, and different changes; WordPress 3.0 likewise acquainted Custom Post Types with the WordPress people group. Custom Post Types are bits of content that work and carry on like posts, yet they don’t show up in your “customary” stream of posts. For instance, you need to include tributes, glad customers spouting about you and your organization, to your site. However, you likewise have a blog, and on the off chance that you made every tribute as a Post—considerably under a solitary class like Testimonials that blog entries never utilized—guests (and web indexes) could see the tributes blended in with blog entries. Not awful, yet it makes for an untidy content posting. Likewise, you can’t simply guide guests toward a menu or connection to every one of your posts without accomplishing something like creation sure all posts are consistently in one specific classification (just as others) that you can use for route. In any case, this methodology, depending on individuals to make sure to constantly set a particular classification, is destined to fall flat sooner or later. Somebody will neglect to set the correct classification (regardless of whether it’s the default one) and will ask why their post isn’t recorded on the blog, and you’ll need to hope to see they missed the check box.
Right—untidy and irritating. By utilizing Custom Post Types, this isn’t an issue by any means. Blog entries are made as posts and you can utilize any of the ways—including the default ones—to list the posts for individuals to peruse. Tributes have their own, isolated method of being shown and recorded. Portion of the first clarifications of Custom Post Types spoke progressively about requiring explicit types of posts and how to compose them (with their own classification and label devices), yet in the a long time since WordPress 3.0 came out, the most well-known use to Custom Post Types I’ve seen is having the option to pull post like (content that is associated with one another) out of the standard blog stream. We’ll speak increasingly about setting up Custom Post Types and how to join them into your blog in Chapter 16, “Customizations Without (Much) coding.” You’ll discover themes and modules make Custom Post Types to do something amazing (like Testimonials and Slideshow modules), so you’re probably going to run over Custom Post Types and not know it!
Post Formats
WordPress 3.1 (Reinhardt) got another approach to style posts: Post Formats. Post Formats are intended to permit theme fashioners to give approaches to offer snappy, styled methods of introducing content. Formats, for example, asides, cites, images (where the whole Post is a solitary picture), and picture exhibitions are a portion of the default Post Formats. So in the event that you have a statement you’d prefer to share, it may have a huge statement mark picture at the top; perhaps the content is in a decent italic text style, and there is space at the base for who said the wise words. Photograph exhibitions, asides, style that reflects and shows that content in the most ideal manner conceivable. The significant thing to comprehend is that Post Formats are not a different sort of post, only an alternate method to style it. You can even have Post Formats for Custom Post Types! Recollect that Post Formats are simply and just that—arranging, style, and design for normal posts.
The Post and Page Editor Explained
When creating or editing a post or page on WordPress.com, you’ll see a space for entering your content, alongside an assortment of boxes with different settings and alternatives, known as modules. These modules assist you with customizing your post or page — you can plan it, include labels or a highlighted picture, conclude whether to permit remarks on the post, and then some. While the editorial manager for the two pages and posts is the equivalent, there is a distinction between creating posts and creating pages, so a few modules are explicit to posts or pages.
Posts are for creating new online journals, articles, or different news-type updates. Pages are for static content like about me, contact, or when you need a static landing page rather than a blog page when individuals visit your webpage. The Post and Page Screen is utilized to make new posts or alter existing posts. You can arrive by heading off to My Sites → Site → Posts/Pages, at that point choosing Add New Page or Add New Post.
The screen is separated into modules, each with their own motivation. The three most significant pieces of the post screen are the Title of your post, the Editor (where you type your content and include squares), and the choices module (on the correct hand side).
Status and Visibility: Tells you essential data about the post, including the creator, perceivability status, distribute date, and whether the post is clingy or not.

Included Image: Allows you to show extraordinary custom header images for explicit posts and pages or set thumbnails for exceptional features of your theme.

Page Attributes: Only shows up on pages. Permits you to set theme explicit formats for your page and dole out parent pages.
When editing a Page, certain modules accessible on the Posts screen could possibly be accessible, for example, the Categories module.
In the upper right over the alternatives module, you’ll see a toolbar that resembles this:
From left to right:
Switch to Draft: Allows you to transform a distributed post or page over into a draft. (In case you’re dealing with an unpublished draft, this will say Save as Draft)
Preview: See what your post or page will resemble on the live site.

Gear Icon: Use to flip the Document or Block settings module

Ovals Menu: (the three vertical dabs) Open more post or page editorial manager settings, including approaches to alter the whole page by means of HTML, oversee reusable squares, duplicate the whole content of the page, center around each square in turn, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg!
