If this original theme editor could make a website, why do we use the Elementor?

Thanks bro.✍

Very well explained Ray,.. Not sure what the developers of wordpress themes were thinking.. Guess this is the future of coding or tinkering with free themes.. No likey at all.. but thanks for pointing me in the right direction.. bookmarketing in case I forget and need to come back here!

Is it a free site to install in WordPress.

Hello, thank you for the video ! please can we remove the title bloc from the pages ?

your explained really amazing

Very informative and enough to handle the new theam

Hello, thanks for your video. When I click "add new page" I am NOT presented with the pattern picker view. Yes I am on the 2024 theme.

Man oh man, was this a refreshing video (haven't seen the whole video yet), but I'm surprised it has so few likes. I've been managing almost all of the Digital Marketing in a small-medium business for over ten years now, with some gap years (75% Google, 15% Mailchimp, 8% Bing Ads/Microsoft Ads, and the a little Facebook, and LinkedIn work), but the last 2 years has been nightmarish, not withholding the impact of all new GDPR-rules (not a developer, or lawyer, but only self trained). I've seen so many changes since early days of Google Adwords, until now, and coped with them all (many not so liked, some very nice). Although our Google Ads account, is very large, and complex (due to our vast amount of durable products), it has, for the majority of these years, for the most part of the time been a bliss, and just positively challenging, to work with it. I known I've been on the right path, and statistics have supported that view (even though Google reps, Google accountants managers, etc) have been trying to make me give up all control (i.e. just give them the keys, and never look back "trust us, we got this")... but again, these last 2 years has been insane. So many changes, so many new bugs, so little (feels like zero) help for customer service, and I mean there is literally NO time for hours on end just to try to figure out simple stuff (there simply is not time for that in my shoes). Colleagues, who have done some work with me on Google before, just say, man I'm out, to much has change, I'm of no help. On top of that I'm unfortunately also struggling to get back to full time from an stress-related burnout some years ago (I actually attributed all my problems with Google on that, until last months, when it dawned on me that many do seem to have the same issues). Also, I think our competition isn't managing their Google accounts at all, but just threw the keys to Google, closed their eyes and hoped for the best, bc the click prizes has sky rocketed over the last year (much due to new commonly used, massively problematic bid strategies, employed). Then on top of that the economic crisis. So yea, we've/I've been forced to put the breaks on Google, on a whole new level, and put more resources into other channels (I'm less knowledgeable in), cause Google seem to be "broken", or something! Thanks for the video, and Greatest of Luck on your ventures, and the same to me! ;D Google is still a key player, so I sure hope they will come to there senses and be great again, or something. Otherwise they're screwed, and many companies with them, I think.

Hi Ray, great vid but I have a question. Why did it automatically instal WordPress when you clicked the hatchling plan set up button. How does it know you want a Wordpress installation and not say Joomla or Drupal or whatever other website software could be installed. Thanks

Thanks for the guide!

Thank you SO much!

necessary for everyone

I started as just a hobby site builder, I do it for fun and my own sites, went from Front Page in the olden days to struggling with early WordPress, to Avada, to Thrive Themes, and I am dumping all my previous knowledge into Core Block building from now on. I want simplicity, I don't want to be married to the Themes anymore, I will be married to Core Blocks and will evolve with them. It's not perfect but it sure is getting there. One example of a frustrating experience was today, when I was trying to make a nice blog layout on a page using Query Loop and it would not appear on the dang page, until I figured out the little checkbox for "inherit query from template" was checked. Little things like that can burn a whole day for me sometimes, but in the end I am learning much better without all that crap on top of WordPress and enjoying the process MUCH MUCH more. I'm really looking forward to evolving with WordPress now, instead of it working against me.

I know how to develop both classic and block themes. And honestly I prefer block themes because for me it is very easy to develop🤣 Also easy to teach to non-tech person on how to update any content they needed. I agree with your cons tho. The update release is quite slow and not many customization can be done. It is more suitable for simple site. Sometimes I still use Gutenberg page builder, such as Greenshift, or Kadence.

Siteground Migrator does not work if the site you want to transfer is in a staging folder. The migrator has no way to specify a path within the source domain. They don't tell you that.

Please need a help mentoship im new into programming please help me out

I sure hope so. So many huge negatives with Google: NEG: huge privacy concerns that they couldn't care less about NEG: constantly aborting projects (rumor: Flutter is the latest one) that they ONLY start in order to harvest data. When they feel they've gotten as much useful data as they have from usage of said project, they just cancel it. NEG: they try to monopolize everything, and as a result all they've done is reduce the quality of everything they get their hands on. CZcams S U C K S compared to what it was like years and years ago. Google has even tried preventing people from "downvoting" videos NEG: Google price gouges whenever possible. No way their "CZcams Premium" is worth that kind of price when they still allow ads anyway on videos. NEG: their Chrome browsers are awful, shoving ads in your face whenever possible, and top results are always for people who pay Google for the priorities.

thanks

Love this. I hope they go down, not sure what could replace them although I spend more time talking to CoPilot than searching Google that's for sure! I noticed something at the beginning of your video that I have had a very personal experience with. I made the huge mistake of getting myself listed on Yelp because I thought it might help point people in my business's direction. Shortly after getting listed with them, I began receiving phone calls from their sales teams and I honestly didn't have time to talk to these people and didn't want to talk to them, but they just kept calling. This led me to proactively cancel my Yelp account. Well after that I discovered that not only am I still listed with Yelp but they have taken my place in the search results on both Bing and Google. On Bing I am no longer listed at all not even when you type in my web site address directly into the search box. I am currently trying to figure this mess out as I have noticed a lot less calls coming in. Anyway, I love your videos Turned into a core WordPress Gutenberg block guy now the simplicity is fantastic and I'm starting over.

The template didn't automatically show up when i try to make a new page, can someone help me pleaseee😭😭😭😭😭😭

perfect video/delivery ... bravo

Great video. I have an issue with the footer logo. Why does my header logo change when I change the logo in the footer?

Thanks for the info. I use TextPad. It also is similar. One thing that it has that you didn't demonstrate with Notepad++, is a section on the left panel that you can set up with your own stuff. You click on a line and it will insert some code you use frequently. This way you don't have to find it somewhere else and retype it. You can also set it up so if you select some text, then click on the entree on the left, it can put in an open and close tag on each side of your selection. I don't know if TextPad can automaticallly put Tabs in for you (Pretty Print). It has a lot and I have been using it for a about 20 years. Even so, I don't know everything about TextPad. You should learn Regular Expressions. It is awesome for Searching and replacing. TextPad has that feature also. , \t, are Regular Expressions. But there is a lot more to it than that.

Thank you for the video, do you have a pdf of the flow chart by chance to download?

This is great! thank you so much. I have a question regarding making a website that uses this theme multilingual. I'm trying to use Polylang but since this theme hides the menu options I'm confused on how to do it. Do you have any workaround or plugin that works with it?

I am using a local host and the option to expand the picture in a new window is not available. Just so you know. Thanks for this wonderful tutorial.

Helpful, thanks

excellent walk through thank you!

How to make Wordpress Database work with write and read-only ?

This isn't working for me, but the only difference I can see is my style.css file has two things your example doesnt: 1) Text Domain: Brainstorm 2) Template: Brainstorming. So when I change these parts, my site breaks with a critical error. What can I do in this case?

This video is exactly what I was looking for to get started! Very well explained and just using the default WP features without any additional plugins. Big thumbs up 👍👍

Can you tell how I can edit my category layout page As it is showing posts in column and I want them in list format

Thank you. The video was very helpful.

Love your accent

Thank you for this brilliant tutorial! I'm just starting with the WordPress Twenty Twenty-Four theme and I'm looking for where to set the background image instead of the background color (like you showed in "Set your custom styles 06:39") but I can't find where I can set this. Do you know where or how to set the background image instead of the background color ?

what does the red/sometimes green vertical line on the left side of the screen mean?

Thanks for all the info. I'll use what you've offered and I enjoyed your presentation

Very interesting topic

Thanks for this informative tutorial. It is very well structured and shows how to work with an fse theme very well. It is also very commendable that you enable the assets to be downloaded.

Hi! Thanks for the video! I wanted to ask if you know how to change the website logo, I could put it at first... but now I'm trying to change it and I cannot find where to edit the logo. Thanks again!

Where do you add custom CSS site-wide? Where do you add header & footer scripts?

You talked about everything except the navigation menu. WordPress has changed all of this part, which used to be in Appearance and Menus; today, it's no longer there, and it's very difficult to find the section for adding new menus.

tnx

I'm just starting. I need to pick a domain name but im not sure if i can buy that anywhere online and be able to use that domain name on Etsy, Shopify, google. Its kindof confusing to me. I dont know if when i chose like google cloud for example to get my domain name, if i can use it to host my website once i get it finished.

I do not like Windows notepad. I love Notepad++. I use it every day. One of the main things I use it for is to mark-up what I am or should do during the day and for reminders.

Thank you! This is one of the most practical "non-clickbaity" videos I've seen in a while, and it's very refreshing.

Can we change the GPS coordinates system to UTM in photo properties itself?

Always happy to see you upload Ray! Hope everything is fine with you!
