 * Hi,
    Ive inherited a website buit in wordpress. Its pretty good (but really out
   of date) but I want to refresh the look and feel of it by applying a new theme
   and adding some new items. – can you recommend a template for a Village Traders
   website. It will be used as by users as an information source for address, phone
   numbers, articles on traders, upcoming events and promotions? – can i add social
   media to the website, fb, instagram? – can i add a contact management system 
   to the website? – do i need to do any coding to make changes? I assume not but
   want to make sure – what/how can I add the ability for people to leave comments
   about the shopping strip? Many thanks Maryanne

 * Hi Mezcof,
 * You are asked a very broad question that’s not easy to answer.
 * Templates are very subjective as to what’s go and what will work for you. You
   can browse themes here on wordpress.org [http://wordpress.org/themes/](http://wordpress.org/themes/)
   
   or there are many independ providers of themes and theme market places you can
   look for an appropriate theme.
 * If you want to add social media icons to your site, these is generally provided
   but the theme. If you are looking at adding social sharing buttons, you’ll need
   to find a plugin. Jetpack might be a good option: [http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/)
 * I don’t think you’ll need to make code changes, but that depends on how things
   are currently setup.
 * Comments are built into wordpress, and you should be able to “allow comments”
   where you need it to allow people to comment.
 * Hope that will get you on your way. In the future you’d benefit in these support
   forums but asking specific questions, and telling us what you’ve already tried.
