i know this is going to sound like a complete noob topic and everything but i really need help. The only websites i have ever made have been simmple smf forums and i really want to code a website in PHP. Can anyone tell me how to start thanks max (cool forum btw)
I learned PHP by examples. If you find it useful and method suits you, find a site with step-by-step tutorials. Something like jobeet from Symfony.
http://www.w3schools.com/ i learned there pretty good tutorials, easy to understand but the real thing comes when you try to code your own web site i prefer Google a lot
its like you go and search for the BEST website out there then you start making its CLONE or copying the thing as it is this way you get off the HARD designing PART (that most of the web programmers lack ) and get in directly to the coding but dont't cheat (like using chrome developer tools ) just try to make everything b yourself from the CSS style to Jscript and when you find places to insert php use php this way you'll learn the progamming part easy and later you can make your own design
I would say cheat as much as you can but that will only help in html and not in PHP and so copy html and work on PHP. You can start cloning Go4Expert.com as well if you wish to.
@shabbir heyy this is a bit off topic but just to knw you guys made this forum? i mean is this a normal modified forum engine (like mybb) or you coded from top?
