There are two things that really helped me.

Check out the default template first. Try changing some PHP files in your wp-content / folder.



Second, when you feel like you understand the basics of what's going on, skip to some of the Wordpress tutorials. They are informative and helpful.

Nice introduction.

I also recommend browsing the database. Log into PHPMyAdmin or something similar and see what happens where and what it's called. He clicked me when I saw the column names later in WP tags called "blog_description" or whatever, and I knew he was calling.

And outside of the codex, you can actually dig into "real" PHP, which runs the engine, not "pseudo" PHP, which contains WP tags, etc.

Start with a template hierarchy diagram: (Visual Overview Section) http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy

Then read the relevant PHP file to see what happens depending on which page is being displayed.
