What is you first WordPress website made with Astra going to be about?
Hi sir wordpress not setup plz help
Ur wordpress setup video send link I request it
a plant store website
A storage based furniture consignment platform
@@purino1 wht ws u hv
An awesome school's website.
I agree with John Howlett, it is not as simply as it seems. And what I see on the page builder does not match up with what I see on the tutorial. It is taking me a long time to figure out some things. I will stay with it and move forward as best I can. I am a newbie and not a tech person. Thank you.
I just built my first website using this video as a base. It’s not as simple as it’s made out as not everything looks the same on the page editor as the website. Thanks for the video and all the help it’s given me.
Glad it helped John! Yes the products go through UI iteration but have you checked out our new Astra Masterclass? czcams.com/video/vNHS9Fz-_yc/video.html
@@BrainstormForce please how can i import my own starter website? I didn’t find it.
I at first was so overwhelmed but this video is amazing for several reasons. Kay is full of energy, yes he moves fast but you can always pause and rewind. The video is very helpful as to the steps to take to get started, to get familiar and if you pay attention and follow his steps, they are correct using word press. I can't speak for any other platform. Thank you so much for this awesome video Kay!!!
Thank you so much for your comment! Glad the video helped :)
I love this theme! And I have tried them ALL.
Thank you!
Great Video! We started using Astra and the Starter templates made by you are awesome and the easiest ones to edit. Thanks for your work man.
Glad you like them!
Wonderfull ! Thanks for a great work for all you team!
I love that this theme gives us so much control over fonts, headers, paragraph spacing, etc. Watching this video helped me change almost all the things I couldn't figure out on my own. Thank you! By the way, Loren looks much more relatable than Kyle. ;-)
Haha :) Glad it helped!
Thanks so much bro for this video. It is so amazing. You really know how to simplify it to viewers, a very good teacher 😊👍
Glad it was helpful :)
Thanks for a great video. If I have a few features on my website - coaching, a store, blog, access to my videos and books, do I go with a multipurpose theme? If so, the multipurpose themes I found don't have anything in the footer. Can I create the footer with the widget you showed in the video?
Also can I add a video on my home page to explain the different elements of my website? Lastly, if I want an online store, do I select an ecommerce starter template or a multi purpose and add the store?
Love it ~ thank you!
Glad you like it!
Thank you for giving me more important information.
Glad it was helpful!
bro thank u soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much.
u r great.
my blessings r with u ❤❤
Wow, thank you for the kind words!
Looked at the video and while everything. works perfect here for me in reality nothing did. Not only logo and writing was misplaced, everything else was almost imposible to move, and there is no clear explanation how to change images in themes and plugin templates. the worst after used a plug in on astra when i went to try and chose difrent themes expecting everything will look difrent with a difrent theme the plug-in template lingered around over a new theme. Three hours later still in a mess of themes and plugind and nothing is moving forward in adition to server is breaking down.
thanks for the help. god bless you!
Thanks for watching and for your comment!
I'm halfway thru, not a teckie AT ALL, but so far, it's taken lots of pauses & repeating, but I've made it to the Header builder, and for some reason, at the bottom where the gray space is to place the buttons, I only get a blue strip inviting me to upgrade - I've done this process several times, and that's all I get - the upgrade is distracting, and as a total newbie wanting only the simplest site at the present time, I don't need an upgrade, as I barely understand this. But it's a very helpful video, and I wouldn't have been able to build it at all if not for this video, so thank you very much.
This video was helpful for me to build my first website. Thank you for the instruction.
You are welcome and glad to hear that you found our video helpful.
Hello! Thank you for sharing. Is Astra Theme gives you the choice of picking rems instead of pixels? For the fonts, paddings etc?
*Thank you* so much from Bangladesh Take love
You're welcome! And thanks for watching!
thanx bro to save my time ✌✌
Glad it helped!
Very helpful tutorial. 👍
Thank you and much appreciated.
When I click on start customizing the different options do not display any help 😢
Thank you! Great video!
Question: if already have a website made with another theme and I want to change to Astra and to install a template, how can I preserve the links that already have traffic and I don't want to lose that traffic?
I looked that I don't have to use Elementor, Spectra is great!
You can check our documentation regarding this: wpastra.com/docs/how-to-switch-to-astra/
Have hit a major issue following this guide. After creating a template through astra and using elementor as the website builder i am completely unable to edit or delete the newsletter subscribe form that came with the template. Any ideas how to fix this?
Is there a way to change the layout and properties of the mobile evrsion only without affecting my desktop version?
Hi
On the product page, next to the product price, I see the inscription +free shipping.
I haven't set up any free shipping in the store I'm building.
How can I cancel the inscription + free shipping?
I checked all possible settings in the WordPress control panel and I can't find the problem, I think this message went down together with your template that I downloaded.
Thanks for the help.
Thank you for this very informative video. However, I have a strange but very important question for me.
Can you tell me how you do the zooms at 20:04 min., or what do you use to record your screen?
When I record something in 4K and zoom in, it never looks as sharp as yours.
I would be grateful if you could enlighten me on this.
Thank you very much.
In this video I was just zooming in with the trackpad. Using MacOS and Ecamm if that can help.
Can you use woocemerce with the general Astar Pro theme mentioned in video for a ecommerce store, or do I need to purchase a special ecommerce Astra Pro theme?
Yes, absolutely you can use Astra & Astra Pro for your e-commerce store.
If you want to speed this up, you can do a one-click install of an e-commerce demo using Astra from our Starter Template Library: wpastra.com/website-templates/ecommerce/
why is there no option in the customizer for a sticky image. i want that when i scroll down to the description the image stays sticky over the length of the summary
Hello, would it be possible to engage you or someone of your team to build our website?
How do I add links and such to the sidebar?
i can't apply changes on widgets in right or the left side of website there is an error message
You/Y'all are amazing. Thank you for sharing. As a newbie, please please be more clear, helpful with the plugins that are conflicting. There's so many helpful tutorials, but they tend to (actually) break the fonts and layouts.
Thank you for your feedback!
@Motherguz, are there any plugins we should be careful of? I try not to install too many, but somehow I end up with more anyway.
@@janetbeatrice9505 I end up needing all of the ones I have - so I'm really not sure how to stop them from breaking. I use a lot as well.
Hi, i like your teaching videos very much! i made my first wp-website with astra, but i got a problem where i found no solution (without changing the code), only a lot of questions of other user.: all pages exept the home page have a whiteisch border between the header and the page on the frontend. how can i remove that border? i had the same problem with different astra-websites, and when i chage the theme, this border diappears. what can i do in astra?
Hey Barbara, thank you for the kind comment! Glad You enjoy the videos :)
Regarding your issue, try this: in Appearance > Customizer > Header Builder, you will see at the bottom of the screen the header builder with 3 rows.
Click on the gear icon on the left of the Primary Header row (middle row), then in the left panel, click on the "Design" tab -> you will find the option to customise the border (size & color).
If you are using a transparent header, go to Appearance > Customizer > Header Builder, then still in the left panel, click on the "Design" tab -> you will find the option to customise the border (size).
Hope this helps!
@@BrainstormForce hi! thanks a lot for answering so soon! i found what you tell me, but it did not change the border. when i change the theme, it looks as intended (without border) but when i change back to astra, it reappears... but this does not matter, i can just take a different theme (and even get a sticky header). thanks a lot anyway!
Mine show a blank page with Edit with elementor in the middle (I own Elementor Pro)
I tried to add the page list widget but just a row of dots shows up
ecommerce, thx for great content
Would you please tell me why there's no response while I click "starter templates"?
Strange cannot find the Kyle Mills template...
Outdated. There is no "Starter Templates" in my Astra installation list. Had to manually find it, and wen installed it doesn't show any templates, zero results found for any category :(
How do i import my own starter website? I didn’t find that option after installing astra, and being able to import my own starter site was the main reason why i installed the astra theme.
Unfortunately, as of now it's not possible, however, we may add an option with the future update.
08:07 Changing the size of the logo doesn't work well on mobile. Small sizes are not reachable. (On desktop, they are)
10:13 Changing the site backgroung color (#FFEDE6), as you show it, doesn't work anymore. The palette with all the colors disappears when you scroll down.
I noticed there's no "Select Option" for the size option, only showing text in sizes instead
Can you provide some additional details about your query as we are not clear about it?
I am trying to make a site and would like to know how can I re-install a fresh clean Wordpress on my hosting and start from scratch or should I just delete my website and start over? And how do I do both? A non-techy Thank you!
Robert
Hi Robert, every web hosting may have different procedures, but you could also use a plugin such as Wp Reset. Be aware it will wipe out all of the content of your current website, but as we understand, that is what you are trying to achieve.
@@BrainstormForce Thank you. II may just be figuring out how to tweak the site I have now, but since it is new - It's nice to know I have that option.
If spectra is for Gutenberg, what's for elementor?
How do I get the contact info to email me?? I have a ticket in but nothing yet. help
toop
when i click on activating starter templates it does not give the option "build your website now"
Sorry to hear you are having issues with it. Is it a fresh install?
When I click on start customizing (6:45) the different options do not display 😢 any help please?
Strange. Is this a fresh install? Don't hesitate to contact Support: wpastra.com/support/
Why is my Astra theme not loading perfectly? I have tried more than 5, but all are the same (not loaded completely). I can't see some colors, pictures, sliders, and UI. Any fix?
Strange. Is this a fresh install?
how do i save this website that i have built with this starter templates?
You can export your website with the WpVivid Plugin
hi can i earn using free hosting and free domain ?
I have a query. Whenever i open my website it shows " this page doesn't seem to exist. The link to here was faulty." I have tried reporting this to astra customer service but it still shows that! But when i click on home or any other section, it works but while opening site it always shows "
Hey, sorry to hear you're having trouble with your website.
Have you tried going in Wp Admin to Settings> Reading?
Then you will see the option "Your homepage displays".
There you have 2 options (radio buttons):
- either showing your blog on the homepage
- or showing a static page
If you want to show a static page, select this option, and in the dropdown, select the page that should be shown when opening your website.
Hoping this helps!
@@BrainstormForce Thanks! This worked. I am so much happy now. I really thank you for responding so fast and also for solving the issue!
@@imidiot2515 Nice one! Glad we could help :)
what is the link for the logo builder?
Here's the link: logo.com/
Hello Sir, How to download Astra themes , is it free ? , please reply me as soon as possible Thanks 😀
Sure, just scroll down on the following link and download the free version: wpastra.com/pricing/ or if you already have WordPress installed just go to Themes > Add New and you should see Astra on the first page (or just type Astra in the search field on that page), then click "Install" then "Activate".
I cannot import my website, there's always an error, what's the matter huhu
Very strange. Is this a fresh install?
it gets stuck at 19% and 38%, what's the problem guys
this theme dosent comes with revolution slider which is very bad
How do you go back to just Astra w/out a starter theme?
You can rest the site using the WP Reset plugin.
@@BrainstormForce thanks
how to buy arabic astra theme
WHERE to enter the licence key PLEASE!!!! Why is it so hidden. Oh, please help - the video did not!
hello, and thank you for your business. Once you've have downloaded the Astra Pro Addon:
1 - go to plugins > add new > then click on "Upload plugin" and select your Astra Pro Addon Zip file
2 - once installed click on "Activate"
3 - next, go to Astra > Dashboard and in the top right corner click on "Licence not activated, then paste your license and click "Activate"
@@BrainstormForce Thank you so much for replying!!! I did end up finding this info on another video (I wasn't expecting to need a plugin for the pro theme). Thank you again!
I need a tutorial for Astra Pro.
Have you checked out our Astra Masterclass? czcams.com/video/vNHS9Fz-_yc/video.html
I'm going to build a bath and kitchen remodeling site.
Sounds great!

The pace of this video is very frustrating. It’s much too repetitive and and excessively wordy. I wish you would just show us the steps without all the extra commentary. The video could be five minutes long
Five minutes? Maybe if you already have some familiarity, but put yourself in the place of someone who has never used this software.
Stop make site modifications without a permission, this is terrible, stop this!
