Getting support from other users
The online WordPress community asks questions and responds with solutions on the WordPress forum: http://wordpress.org/support/. That's an excellent place to go if you can't find the answer to a problem in the codex. If you have the question, probably someone else has had it as well, and WordPress experts spend time in the forum answering questions and giving solutions. There's also an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channel where you can get additional support.
