 * okay, this might be a not very smart question – but after looking at all these
   php files, where does the content actually come from? Is the only way to add 
   the actually content say of the body section -thru the dashboard/admin area? 
   or can I add this into it’s own separate file-html/php – too?
 * I saw that bloginfo() for example can pull stylesheets-in a header – but it’s
   grabbing one of the css files…
    But what about the bloginfo() for the title –
   where does it grab this title from? Or the content area – how do/where do you
   pull the info for the the_content or the wp_link_pages for example?? I’d rather
   do it all through code than logging into as admin and updating through the dashboard.
   is thsi possible?? does this make sense? thanks

 * I think you’re missing a basic point of the advantages of WordPress. Content 
   is created in the Dashboard, Pages or Posts and is stored in the database associated
   to your installation.
 * This allows you to concentrate on content rather than code.
 * The purpose of the dashboard is to allow regular people (not coders) to create
   amazing, professional looking websites without having to know code.
 * Embrace the dashboard. It’s your friend 🙂

 * Hi Ron
 * I understand that but my question is there a way to do it without the dashboard.
 * That is what I am trying to figure out…

 * I suppose anything is possible, but the simple answer is: No

 * Things are generally customisable as you want. I think most of what you wish 
   to achieve would be done by [modifying your theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Themes).
 * I’m not entirely sure what it is that you’re wanting to do “in the code”, though.
 * You don’t have to use the dashboard to create posts, you can enter posts programmatically
   or alter their behaviour using the [API](http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API).
