Being not a programmer it took me some time to understand how wordpress is working. Now with this video I made a big step forward. Thanks
Thanks Paul! It would have been incredibly hard to figure out custom fields, post types, taxonomies, archives and so on, all on my own. You've made it very simple!
An excellent introduction to dynamic content in WordPress - thanks a lot for your effort, Paul!
Super advanced topic explained very clearly. I've done some of this stuff before as a working web developer, but I barely understood it as I went along due to not working directly with code. WordPress is a very powerful framework with an abundant ecosystem of tools. The recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Explanation is so clear and straight to the point but still step-by-step. You are the best!
Paul, your video has changed my world! Cant thank you enough for this tutorial. Keep up the brilliant work.
Your explanations are so smooth, it's like you are reading what you are saying to make it really clear and simple to understand.
Thanks from France
Glad you enjoyed the video :)
This video is absolutely crazy useful. Thank you v much Paul 😍
Thanks Paul for this great effort!!! I Now have a full understanding and skill with dynamic content😉
Your work is really appreciable and the way of your teaching is amazing. Thanks for helping me to make my dream website.
Wow! You put a ton of work into this one Paul :) Thanks for the great breakdown (so we can build up :) )
Cheers Rob 😁👍
This one was a hell of a lot of work, but hopefully it will help cement the foundations to help people really get started with building their dynamic web sites. 🤘
hit the 👎🏽 button twice 😹 superb tut/rundown of the whole concept of custom posts/fields 👌🏽 thank you for creating/sharing 🙏🏽
Glad you liked it!
Excellent content. Very well organized and easy to find the info I need. Thank you.
Good work as always Paul!
So clear and well-structured. Thanks a lot!
Glad you found it useful Jairo :)
Best of best Paul videos!
Thanks a lot, Paul, you saved my time. I was watching a tutorial from another channel but could not understand how he did it. Now I got the point of taxonomy and other basic things
Glad it helped
The method of your explanation is very simple and understandable. Thanks, you keep it up.
Great one, thanks. How to go about if i want to add items from "draw attention" into custom fields and have it filtered hierachically on the frontend?
Thanks for this excellent tutorial. Can we add a filter in the archive page based on taxonomy?
Great video. Thanks.
Do you know how to create a custom calculated field in Toolset, which leverages the other custom field for calculation result, and show in front end single post or achieve views?
Thanks Paul, great video!
Do you have a video on how to create dynamic links, using more than one ACF field in Elementor (if that is possible)?
Though I've watched your videos related to ACF and CPT yet I still benefited from somethings you've mentioned in this video. Thanks to you, now I know have a good understanding of dynamic content🌹
Great to hear you found value in the video. 😁
@@WPTuts
Great value indeed. Not because I'm a non techie but because you are not letting any detail slip from mentioning, plus your wonderful way of teaching in accurate clear words.
Thank you! Helped alot :)
Thank you so much foe this great content, Sir! It was really of a great help to me.
Excellent overview. Thanks a million
You're very welcome Jim. 👍🏼
Hi Paul, I would first like to thank you for the content but also ask if you know of a way to create a master template, create several copies with employee bios, but be able to change all templates by changing the master, sort of like cascading template changes, is this possible?
Very good WP work!
LOL You started off Great - nicely aimed at people new to Dynamic Content that you was off with terminology that's not explained or demonstrated dozens and dozens of options that were not explained or glossed over or simply ignored. If you had started with the end product and then showed what it was you're creating it might have been easier. You obviously know your stuff but you could make a 5 or 10 video series going through all of the options and terminology step by step. That would explode your view count - but thanks for what you did
Thanks for the video, you really helped me out here, I have a big question though: how can you preserve a new line (/n) from a textarea / WYSIWYG ACF field in Elementor?
Once again a great informative video.
One thing I've haven't seen much of is dynamic content on a multisite. I'd like to see your approach to that type of wordpress configuration.
I've never actually looked into doing things with a multi-site setup. Maybe I'll have to set up a test environment and see how it all works.
Hi Paul. I love your videos. How did you make your channel trailer not autoplay? Thanks!
Is there an easy way to deal with location other then having people input it as text? I am looking at building a dynamic directory site listing food specials for venues in my area. I would like it to have both a region/area then a suburb attached to the venue. E.g. Area could be London and the suburb could be Croydon. Could I set this up as a parent taxonomy with London then a child taxonomy as the suburb (This may lead to lots of entries in the taxonomy though) or is there a better way to do it?
As you do some excellent tutorials I am wondering if you have one that can be applied to this problem?. I want to set up a multi vendor site that allows for the buy sell of video games. I have most of the needs meet on the construction except for one problem. I need to have/create/import a list of video games with description and image. These will be used as a reference and addition to a user wanting to sell a game. The reason is so that we don't end up with a 100 entries same product but all slightly different. Have you covered this in any video or suggest a simple way to achieve it ? Cheers!
thank you very much for this, I haven't watched it yet, but I was bookmarking your beginner guide for the same subject with croco as I wanted to watch you build the listing website after i gained some knowledge. Now this showed up! :) should I start with this one or the older ones?
If you're new to the concept of dynamic content in WordPress and need a good foundation in the terminology and basics of the topic, I'd start with this, then the basics of your preferred dynamic content tool (ACF, JetEngine, etc.)
If you're already familiar with the above, hop straight into the dedicated tutorials. 👍
@@WPTuts brilliant thank you very much. Would be great one day if you can explain how to redesign a dynamic website for example. Trashing old plugins and using croco instead then linking the products, tags etc of the old website. ;) cheers and love your channel. The best!
hi dear peter.
i love to wort with CCT.
but CCT has many problem. if CCT act like CPT then it would great.
for example the repeater field doesn't work well with CCT and repeater Listing doesn't work with CCT.
is there any progress about CCT ?
thanks
Hi, I want to create a content site like a magazine .. I do not want to use the standard option of posting posts .. Is there a possibility through jet engine to create articles and template for articles. In general what do you recommend?
Paul, thank you for your tutorials! If you can help me: The default Archive does not page correctly. It always returns to the first page, is there any way to fix this. besides, it doesn't show all the posts... it stops doing it on the tenth
Do you always use a testside before you put it to live site? If soy what do you use?
hey, im building an ecomm store whre there's a CPT of promotions. which in the promotions tab, there are many different promotions like year end sale, new year sale etc. the problem here is how do i want to add products dynamically to each of the sales event? because each sale surely has different products on sale right? so im kinda stucked.
Just in time were for my project!!!. Thank you, your channel has taken my wordpress skills to the next level. Your series on ACF, elecustom skin , CPT UI are probably the reason I have a job now😂😂
I'm all about the timing 😉
great tutorial. How do I do this without Elementor Pro? Thanks
Why do I need a Elementor template to display the post content?
Cant just on any page link text or heading to a part of a post I created in WP?
Sir,
Your videos background music is awesome.
I'm planning on selling online courses on my website and creating a CZcams channel. On my website, I need to create a Blog that will include CZcams videos from my YB channel and their transcription, comments, etc. plus some other type of posts. I need a multi filter to search between different types of categories (main categories, secondary categories...), tags, etc. Most of the dynamic plugins offers lots of things I don't think I need. Can you recommend me the best solution for me. Thanks for your content.
@30:02 - Property Type was changed from Selection to Checkboxes. This just drove me nuts because I redid the entire thing but couldn't find where I set this up.
for some reason my feature image on the property type CPT is not showing, even though is checked on Post types. could this be a bug? lol
Hi Sr. Is this method useful to create private content pages per WP user?
How can I design the archive page using the wpbakery??
I have a problem. Please Help me. how is (else if) in dynamic content. form-->amount field
without the elementor pro , which means im not able to display custom post type, right ?
That’s correct, yes.
Couldnt add / properties/ to the menu for some reason
*Note for later*
Taxonomies : ex. Categories and tags
Used to group posts.

It would be great if you would integrate all this technical detail to why you want to use it in the first place as in a sample use case - not just in general terms. Such as - we have a site that does X but we want to do Y and this is why, when, how you would use these technical details to accomplish the task. At 21 minutes in - I have no idea how this is being used in context and none of it is sinking in as such. It's all just a bunch on abstract concretes that has no bearing on solving a particular problem. I am more or less a beginner to WP - so maybe with a better understanding of WP this might make more sense - but your explanations also seem targeted at the beginner - so it just isn't cohesive.
Very good tutorial, but honestly I had trouble following along because of the music. You had no music on any of the videos I've watched so far. And I think your videos are terrific. I dont't think, that music in the background of a technical video is necessary.
Thank you for the honest feedback Birgit, it's much appreciated.
Brilliant and I am only at minute 3:53

Hello Pauls,
Do you ever cover elementor dynamic content split 2 columns automatically?
Like for the REVIEW Widget. When Backend added 10reviews then front-end ELEMENTOR builder spilt into 2 columns and show those content 5+5.
Did you say beaver fema. 🤷🏾♂️
