A Note on Course Currency
This course was last updated in 2017. WordPress, its administration interface, and popular directory/listing themes and plugins have changed significantly since then. The concepts of setting up a directory site remain similar, but the specific screenshots, menus, and plugin details shown will be outdated. You can still learn the general process, but you should be prepared to adapt to the current versions of WordPress and its tools.
