    Default WordPress 2.7 User Guide

    As traditional, we bring these out not so long before the next version of WP

    But we'll be getting better, as we're doing more and more courses and we use these as part of the material. We update whenever bookings for the version come through.

    PDF can be downloaded, for free use, at http://spectacu.la/wordpress-27-user-guide/

    That's a nice file, I skimmed through it and it looks like anyone who reads it should be able to get the in's and out's of WordPress. The only problem is the image quality, I wish it was sharper.

    Good job on creating this resource for people. I wonder how it will compared with the WordPress user manual that was scheduled to be released with WordPress 2.8.

    I think the main difference is that mine is really designed for being printed and read offline. Some people just like paper!

    Planning to update for 2.8 very soon (which will be a smaller job, to be honest) and this time the plan is to create something worth publishing on actual paper and selling on.

    The re-brandable and final .doc file will be available

    ...

    Non-members can download the pdf file below, while members will be able to download the pdf and the final Word Document.
    Will we be allowed to resell it?

    I agree with the above comments about picture quality. The resolution on the currrent images is too low IMO.

    Great document otherwise though!

    Re-sell to clients, yes. You'll even be able to swap the logos out so long as a small credit is left somewhere.

    What we will ask is that you don't publish it elsewhere or offer it as a download.

    As for image quality - well it's as much to keep the download a sensible size as anything else. Members will have access to a much higher quality version, and the Word document has very very light compression so reproduces perfectly well.

    Awesome, I knew about this but keep forgetting to hand it out to clients.
