Do I need to learn PHP? Other questions...

Hi Envato Authors,

I have read all the WP requirements and I had a few questions:

  1. How much PHP do I need to know to get started developing WP templates.
  2. How is PHP used in WP templates.
  3. Good resources for learning how to develop WP themes and templates (YouTube, etc…)?
  4. Where do I start? UI/UX? Any tips and techniques or workflow would be very helpful.

Thanks,

Shoaib Kamal Khan

WordPress uses its own PHP functions. So, it’ll be better looking other theme codes instead of trying to learn PHP-MySQL.

Where can I find a list of all the PHP WP theme codes?

@Kamhan

From another website:

And after you have read through that lot:

Which starts to explain the requirements from Envato to submit a Wordpress Theme.

There are many free sites on Google where you can learn PHP. And you can also check youtube to know more about it. But you have to do a deep research to get the right materials. And be persistent to know more about it.
