In this part of my case study on Designer Online Fashion Shopping I’m pretty much at the finish line.  The blog is pretty much a website at this present time.  The only features left to fix is removing any menu tabs, except for the home, tab at the top.   Once the menu tabs is gone you are finished.  You will have a website that is performs just like a website but has a back-end of a blog.  This last part is pretty easy and will probably take one more paragraph.  OK, lets get started. 

I want you to log back into your wordpress admin panel.  You should be at the Dashboard at this present time.  I want you click the Presentation link on the top menu.  This will put you into the theme admin area.  Click theme editor at the top.  This will bring up all of your theme files.  Now, the tab section should be in your header.php file.  I want you to look for a code that looks something like this “<?php wp_list_pages(’sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&title_li=&exclude=367,553′); ?>”.  The main part that you are looking for is the wp_list_pages.  You will need the comment out this line like so: <!– “<?php wp_list_pages(’sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&title_li=&exclude=367,553′); ?> –>.  Hit the save button at the bottom right and your done.  Look at the template again to see if all the tabs are gone except the home tab.  If so, you now have a fully functional website.

I would now start installing necessary plugins that will help you to improve you SEO, as well as, start monetizing your website.  Take a look at the related articles below for needed plugins answers.

In comparison with the lecture this tutorial did differ with regards to usability because it concerned usability when developing multimedia applications. I will keep to the wordpress theme.
