I need more basic video-instruction PHP code-writing tutorials

Hello, I am doing here the PHP introduction course. I nearing half a way of the course. I feel the need to practice more code and syntax writing. I already went to Google and wrote "PHP exercise" and did some quizes in different sites --- A thing that helped me improve my php logic even further and I could initiate knowledge I got here in Treehouse, but I feel I need more code-writing excersize to improve both logic, syntax, and comfortability navigating in Code.

Can you please tell me where (maybe here in Treehouse as well) I could get BASIC code-writing exercises for PHP? Thanks!

Hey,

I'm not sure I can be the best help, I've just learned HTML/CSS/WordPress and am planning to start on PHP in about a months time.

I've read this through a few times: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bfjn9u7ighunqpl/php_tutorial.pdf?dl=0

On Treehouse, I've found that if things don't make sense initially, I've just put my head down and followed the courses for 20-30 hours, then eventually I've seen all the stuff be used a heap of times and it starts to make sense. There was a few small bits of PHP in a WordPress course (on Treehouse) that I did last week, seeing it used in action made a few things click for me.

Good luck!

Randy Hoyt's Build a Simple PHP Application is great and the PHP Track will show a lot of good courses, as well.
