Another reason for its popularity is the enormous plugin marketplace where most things are completely free. Everything from themes, blog modules, and online stores to smaller (but equally important) plugins like translation support and security plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can easily access the &#8220;Plugin Store&#8221; by clicking Plugins -&gt; Add New. If you click Installed Plugins, you can easily manage your existing plugins. You can also visit the store at <a href=\"https:\/\/sv.wordpress.org\/plugins\/\">https:\/\/sv.wordpress.org\/plugins\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Settings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress offers several ways to customize your site to meet your needs. Most of them are found under <strong>Settings<\/strong>. Especially worth looking at are <strong>Permalinks<\/strong>, which determine the structure of links to different pages on your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"783\" height=\"382\" src=\"https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-783x382.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-783x382.png 783w, https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-50x24.png 50w, https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-1536x750.png 1536w, https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-60x29.png 60w, https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0-100x49.png 100w, https:\/\/kunskap.websupport.se\/app\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/01\/chrome_724cmRFgx0.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 783px) 100vw, 783px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Instructions for beginners WordPress administration is your main workspace when you work with your website.
