How Do I Edit the HTML of My WordPress Site?

If you want to make changes to the HTML of your WordPress site, you can use a variety of free and paid tools.

If you’re comfortable with basic HTML, you can use a text editor like Microsoft Word or a web browser like Chrome to make changes directly to your WordPress site’s HTML file.

If you don’t have a text editor or browser, some paid tools allow you to make changes to your WordPress site’s HTML file, then upload the modified file to your site. These tools include HTML-Editing Tools for WordPress and W3 Total Cache.

Once you have made your changes to the HTML, you will need to upload the new file to your site and refresh the page to see the changes.

Some WordPress users also use a plugin like Automatic HTML5 Updates to automatically upload new files with updated HTML to their site.

When making changes to your WordPress site’s HTML, be sure to test your changes before you upload them to your site. Sometimes small changes can have unintended consequences that you won’t notice until you try to actually use your site.
