    Hi all,
    Total newbie here, I have been recommended WordPress to build a main site to accompany a forum that I started a few years ago which is already established with 1200 members.

    My question is what book would you all recommend? I was about to purchase 'The dummies guide to WordPress' but I have seen a review on amazon that considers it out of date.

    Your recommendations are very much appreciated.

    The problem you have is that WordPress is upgraded pretty regularly, so just about any book is likely to become out of date quite quickly. The Codex really is the best place to learn about WordPress, in my opinion. If you're completely new to the application, start with:
