 * Does anybody know of an online resource that explains what all of the different
   documents are within your WordPress folder? I have a basic understanding of how
   to code, but am unsure of why there are so many different PHP files within my
   WordPress folder. I am looking to learn the difference between them and what 
   each of them do.

 * The [WordPress Codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page) is about the best
   resource that you can get. You don’t need to know what all of the files do, you
   just need to know what functions are available when you need them.
