How to Set Up a Free Email Popup on Your Website
Oh my God, I swear you're really amazing. You explained it very, very well. I did watch many videos on CZcams, but no one explained them as you did. Thank you a lot.
I found this really helpful - thank you.
I am HostUpon which is by far the better I’ve had them for 1112 years are used to have Go Daddy why does everybody have a different Hoston company?
I have a website through google. Do you know how to do this with google?
What if I don't have access to the cpanel....can it still get fixed?
Great for beginner theme folder missing, doesn't help if the theme folder is properly populated and the error is still thrown :(
Can you share the domain for your site?
Thank you Anthony! I have been away from Wordpress and Divi for a few years and have been feeling a little anxious about getting back into them. Your clear, calm way of working through Divi Theme Builder is very encouraging and comforting. I have never associated those words with web development before, but there we are. :)
I'm so glad that you found this helpful! Incidentally, I've been considering jumping back into making video tutorials (been focused more on the blog side lately). If you have any questions or areas where you need help, let me know!
Hey, Im also having the same problem my website does not exist. hope you can help me thanks
Can you tell me what steps you've followed to resolve the problem so far?
@@courageandgrow Well as of now, I got the guy from fiver that created my website to get my website back, but he needs my Cpanel login. GoDaddy is trying to help me because I forgot my cpanel log in
I think i lost some codes in my theme and now it's showing this and errors fatal errors what should i dod
Hm, there are a lot of possibilities. But, without additional details, I'd say take a backup and then reinstall your theme. You might need to upload the theme via FTP if you can't access the Dashboard.
If I want to rank sites in different cities but didn't wanna build a new site for each city would this be a viable answer and later just go in edit and change the name of the city and continue this process for any location I wanna rank ?
Hm, I'm not quite sure what you're asking. Sounds like you're looking for SEO advice?
I wanna build one site then clone it and use the same website design in all the locations. I'm assuming this plugin will do the job and for each city I can just change the text
@@trancecanada7590 Oh! Yep, it'll definitely work for that.
I have created a default template for all post layouts in Divi theme but when I create new post and made some changes to it, those changes are also reflected in the main all post-template, it's like whenever I'm creating a new post whatever changes I do in this post this changes will also happen in the other old posts too, it like I'm making changes or editing the global all post-template...please help me in handling this issue
So, to confirm what you're saying: 1. You created a template in the Theme Builder 2. But, when you edit an individual post, changes reflect globally Is that right?
@@courageandgrow yes exactly this
@@049harshrathore8 Hm, what kinds of changes are you making to the individual post? Also, can you send the URL to one of your posts so I can take a look?
@@courageandgrow except title whatever changes I made to new post like change in image or change in post content affect the other older posts as well as the global all posts template
@@049harshrathore8 Right now, I'm wondering if you've got the template in the Theme Builder set to Global. Also, a link would definitely help me!
hello sir first of all, thank you sir for making this video my problem is same but I don't know how to solve it. When was I am going in my website section the Wordpress say that Error: The theme directory "oceanwp" does not exist. can you help me sir please
Hi Shivam - Can you provide a bit more information? Also, did you work through the steps in the video?
@@courageandgrow yes sir I follow all the steps but I did not find any solution.
Nice
Thank you very much. This I have found solve on this video. love it
Great video, thank you! Would you happen to be able to point me out into the direction where I can find a tutorial of how to set up WP so contributing staff can easily add their content (blog posts), which then gets styled the way you helped me do it in the divi template? Thanks for thinking along with me in advance!
Hey Dennis - If you set up your Theme Builder template to target all posts, it should style every post on your site, regardless of who submitted it. Then, if the contributing staff members don't have accounts already, you'll want to create them (Dashboard > Settings > Users). Be sure to watch out for which Role you assign each user; you'll likely want to select either Editor or Author. (Editors can create posts and edit posts from any user; Authors can create posts, but cannot edit anyone's but their own.) Does this answer your question? (If you still have questions, definitely let me know! I might be able to create a tutorial video for you.)
@@courageandgrow Yes it does, thank you! Its basically the way you set up the Divi template, right? It overrides the settings users allocate to the blog posts. And is there any plugin that makes it easy for editors/authors to write blog posts? The users in mind are around 70 (!) yrs old and as I didn't use WP in a couple of years, I was surprised by the amount of options the regular editor, as well as the divi creator have in regards to creating a blog post. I think something along the lines of basic text formatting, a picture, MAYBE a table or link (embedded) youtube video? I will be checking out your other video's in the near future, I like the way you explain things. Not too short but certainly not too long/windy! Thanks!
@@dennisvideosvoorinholland792 So, I think what you're talking about, in terms of the options in the editor, is WordPress' shift from the Classic Editor to the Gutenberg Editor. I can definitely understand how the new editor might be a bit of a shock to folks who were used to Classic. Also, if there's a possibility of those folks learning the new editor, I'd recommend that from a long-term standpoint. Do you think a video explaining Gutenberg for folks who need just the absolute basics would be helpful?
@@dennisvideosvoorinholland792 Also, yep, your first sentence was right. The Theme Builder template (if set up the way I outlined in the video, which it sounds like you did) automatically overrides the styling for every blog post that's published.
Would deleting the page also fix the error since I no longer need the page, or do I have to fix the error before I want to delete the page? (sorry for google translate)
If I'm understanding what you're asking correctly, the error should just go away when the issue is resolved. Does that answer your question?
Thanks. Helpful. Problem solved!
Bro my website theme is not showing completed what's the matter ?
Can you give me a bit more information about what's going on?
Excellent video for beginners like me. I solved my trouble.
Glad it helped! 😊
Great video Anthony!.... I do have a question, though, about where the posts end up. So when I "View" the post from the Dashboard, my template is applied to the post and everything looks great. But when I am on my actual website in normal viewing mode, and go to my "Blog" page, the post comes up in the awful generic WordPress template look. I think I must be missing a step to bring that template in the Blog portion of my website. I hope I described that correctly. :)
Hey Erich - Can you give me an example of what you're talking about?
@@courageandgrow I think I figured out my problem. I think it was that I had a custom body template for my posts, and then my WordPress settings for my Posts page was set to "Blog". As soon as I unselected Blog, it works now lol. So I guess I am going to leave well enough alone.
Helpul post.
SOOOOOOO happy i found you! I wish i could see this with you using a pre made layout!
Can you tell me a little bit more about what you mean? Might be able to make a video for you 😊
Bad tutorial....
this is to risky i suffer my hole site down and try to hack -- you must delete after use it
Nice Video
Thanks very much!
This issues coming for my WordPress blog I also watched your video but I didn't get any solution from it, can u help Error: The theme directory "astra" does not exist
Hi Harendra - Apologies for the late reply! Did you get this sorted out?
@@courageandgrow Thank you very much for replying this problem is not solved yet
@@HarryPahadiuk Can you describe the problem/symptoms in a bit more detail? What's happening?
@@courageandgrow Whenever I install a new theme, the theme that is on my WordPress gets removed automatically, and the Astra theme comes, which I have not even downloaded.
But how do I upload music/video in my site which option do I filled in extra file types
I'll need some extra details, I think. What kinds of music / video files are you trying to upload? Incidentally, most image / video formats are allowed by default. So, you may not need to do this? Definitely need additional details!
@@courageandgrow tnx for your respond. But how do I add details
@@arewadecodertv Can you tell me more about the symptoms of the problem?
@@courageandgrow Mp3 music I have followed all the ways from your tutorial but can't upload...
@@arewadecodertv So, my understanding so far is that you're trying to upload an MP3 file to a WordPress site. Is that correct? If so, can you grab a screenshot of the error you're seeing?
Thanks a lot, man. It worked.
Glad to hear it! 😊
Thank you Anthony! I have watched about 10 videos on how to do this and none have been as easy or helpful as yours. Thanks again!!
So glad it was helpful 😊
Nice tutorial
Glad you found it helpful 😊
I kept looking for a platform that lets me view all my e-mail accounts conveniently and I just couldn't find any, so I decided to just make one. Lol. It's still under construction but if you think I should continue it and it would be helpful to any of you, please let me know. Here is a sample UI look but it's still far from my final plan: imgur.com/a/AG34Xzw
Hey Cyrill - I'm curious what the benefit of signing up for this would be, versus setting it up with Gmail?
@@courageandgrow Currently with the Gmail website, not the mobile app, one would have to open multiple tabs to open multiple accounts. Although there's a way to be able to see everything by adjusting the settings, the process can seem complicated and time consuming for people like me who isn't very techy. Also, on a personal basis, this feature of Gmail isn't really giving me what I want. This platform I'm thinking of will just be a website though and not a desktop app, so it would work for people who don't want to go through an installation process. I just wonder if other people actually need something like this. What do you think?
@@cyde1647 Hm, well, for me, I'd go with a solution I don't need another account / other software for. Also, I already use and like Gmail, so it makes more sense for me. There may be a market for it though. I'd 100% ask around and see if there's interest.
After renaming it back to normal im getting the white screen
Hey Hamza - Apologies for taking a bit to reply. Did you ever get it sorted out?
@@courageandgrow issue resolved
Thanks a lot Anthony
Sure thing 😊
Thanks Anthony! It will be fun to play around with this :)
Hope you enjoy it!
very helpful! Thanks!
I'm glad! You're welcome 😊
This is sooooo helpful, thank you.
Thrilled that this helped you! 😊
Courage & Grow I have to tell you that I haven’t finished the video yet and that’s because it’s made me so much more confident about changing settings in Divi. I do plan to finish it this weekend so I can update the post text layout too. Your teaching is great! Thanks again.
@@esalenchik I'm _so_ excited to hear that! If you have any other Divi or WordPress questions, please let me know! Happy to make tutorials whenever I can 😊
@@courageandgrow Be careful what you wish for 🤣🤣🤣 I've been struggling with buttons - changing default settings/use custom settings and I can't seem to get it to use the global defaults I set... Are there glitches there that I don't know about or am I just not understanding it. PS. I found this via the FB Divi Theme Users group, and I could go ask there since I haven't found any posts about it.
@@esalenchik Hm, interesting. You're welcome to email me if you want with a description of the problem: anthony@courageandgrow.com
Anthony, very nice! I'm just new to Divi, and this helps me in planning nicer looking posts. Thank you.
I'm so glad this is helpful to you 😊
