Lesson
As mentioned frequently on this site, WordPress is a powerful content management system (CMS), publishing tool, and website-building platform.
One of the many things that make WordPress so powerful is the number of features available that users have complete control over.
All of these features and their options, settings, etc. can be accessed from the main WordPress menu (note: your website developer may have hidden from view some of the menu items to help declutter your admin area or prevent accidentally changing essential settings. Consult with your website developer if this is the case).
