Any WordPress aficionados who can help with some site basics and bells & whistles?

I know there are a ton of tutorials out there but that's the problem...there's just too much stuff to wade through and I'm really pressed for time.

I have a site set up, self-hosting, but need help with things like RSS, social sharing (I know there are a ton of plugins..again, not sure the best way to go), setting up other users, etc.

If you have time and energy and wouldn't mind helping me, I'd really appreciate it. For someone who knows the ins and outs of WP, a few emails back and forth should probably do it.

Thanks much.

you can set up your feed here: https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=feedburner&continue=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedburner.google.com%2Ffb%2Fa%2Fmyfeeds

Once it is set up get the URL and paste it in the RSS feed widget in your admin panel.

For social networking I like Slick Social Share Buttons. It's a plugin you can get through your admin panel. It's a slide in that you can customize with just the social network sites you want on it.

What do you need to know about setting up other users? Most users you will probably want set up as a subscriber unless you want them to have access to the admin panel.

Feel free to private message me and we can exchange emails if you want.
