    This is extremely helpful. However I am at the step where you go to appearance and click the option menu and that option isn't showing for me? Do you know why this may be happening?

    Hi,
    Do you have any video about wordpress . org?

    Is it possible to have one website that can serve two audience? For example English and Arabic?
    English visitors will only see English written posts, and Arabic visitors will see the Arabic posts only.

    Note: It seems that Arabic version of WordPress doesn't contain Menus.

    Is it possible to use Google Sites to create a small business website? To me it seems to be easier to handle but they don't have an e-commerce platform?

    Do you have any video explaining how to create an e-commerce website? Is there any free website that you can start till the website generate some revenue?

    #Theme name is Hever

    Ok I lied, I have one more question. On my contact page if someone messages me using the form where does it go to? I am using the free version as you made in this video. I tried using it and sent a message but I never got a notification anywhere. Again thank you for making this video and taking the time to help me and answer my questions. Have a great day.

    Hey Stewart, another question for you. Is there a way to have the menu links (Home & Contact) go to a certain place on the same page? I hope that makes sense. Say I have an "about" button in the menu on the top and I want it to go to the about block on my home page. Is that possible?

    Hey Stewart, How are you? I hope you and your family are doing well. I was wondering with the free version of WordPress is it possible to have the "Testimonials" section populate itself or do I have to put them in manually? Or is that something I need a "Plugin" for?  Thank you for your time and for making this video. Have a great day.

    g day dear Steward – howdy

    Thank you for this video, Well it would be awesome if you would deliver a presentation that covers the WP 5.9 topics,

    like FSE, Block-Theming etc. This presentation meets the needs of many many wordpress-users:

    5.9 is so awesome and outstanding new – and here the community needs some amazing, clear and concise educational videos.

    Keep up your channel – wordpress is the coolest cms beneath the sun 😉

    So there doesn't seem to be any need for Divi or Elemental? With this theme, you can add block, buttons etc the some as those paid ones mentioned?
    You are a brilliant teacher. I really have confidence to start now.
