Notes de l'éditeur
- With plugins, pages can do all these things too.
- Sky is green, up is down, and we have always been at war with Eurasia. Posts and pages share the same database table; they have all the same fields.
- So what are all the things you can store in the WordPress database?
- * - unless you are a traveling circus or a Kogi taco truck
- ... about which, more later.
- About ten new plugins are added every day.
- This is Register Plus.
- If you just want to change one or two capabilities, you can dig into the Codex list of capabilities and make the changes in your functions.php file -- but you&#x2019;ll have to remember to copy these lines if you change themes.
- Among other things, you can choose which roles can edit or read private posts and pages -- or you can create a whole new role for that purpose.
