โ About the video: The objective of this video is to give you the foundation on WordPress so that you can build any web pages you see on the internet without using any page builders, like Elementor or Beaver Builder. Page builders are the main cause of site speed, so we want to avoid them as much as possible.

Extremely helpful! I have used WordPress for years but hadn't yet used the new Gutenberg block editing. Feel much more confident now.

Thanks
Mountain Man
Great video, thanks! I guess the hardest part is finding all the images and color schemes

The more I try Gutenberg the more I love Elementor. Plus this video is strictly amateur hour, you barely knew what you were doing. You should practice your tutorials before you record them.

What do you think is the best CTA Video pluging for WordPress?

How can I create a Back to Top Button with Gutemberg?
Andreas Valsamis
Excellent guide. I'd suggest lowering the background music just a little bit.

Make a video on travel website from scratch.

Thanks for the great video.
I'm using kadence theme, but I couldn't figured out how enable sidebar of pages and posts. Also, why you need custom link in menu?
Jerome Valeska
Hi jack, my woocomerce website currently uses themify themes and themify builder, it feels a bit heavy, and I want to change to Kadence themes and use Kadence block, but I don't know how and I'm afraid the website will be messy, can you help me make a video tutorial please? ๐
postino1996
Jack, this is awesome, thank you so much!! I cannot figure out how to increase the spacing between the menu items with the Kadence customizer. Does that need to be done thru custom CSS classes? Also, you show how you can duplicate the row layout, but can you duplicate a section in the row layout?
RG Web Design
Thanks. Just what I have been looking for. I have been with Elementor almost from the start, and running a very small web agency (around 60 clients).
I'm not 'jumping ship' from Elementor. It's good to have Elementor as another skill. But I feel it will quickly become a secondary skill to this.
Hailey Khoo
I wish I found your video a lot earlier. So that, I could have build my website using kadence block instead of elementor. Are you from Malaysia by the way?
Sarah Prince
The best WordPress tutorial I have seen so far. I love the way you show us 2 windows side by side for the before and after. I was thinking about building a website with Elementor, but you have certainly changed my mind about using the FREE Kadence block instead. Definitely subscribing to your channel for more great videos like this one. Please make an updated tutorial for the WordPress 5.8 version. Thanks.
Andy Puempel
Great tutorial. Great Enthusiasm! Nicely done, Jack. Your tutorials have motivated me to move away from Page builders. Thanks for your tips.

Whereโs the mobile version? Thereโs the weakness of Gutenberg
Tom M
Wow, I'm glad I found your channel and this video as I am moving sites from Elementor and BB to Gutenberg. My question, yes you get better sites speeds but is building sites slow in GB then say Elementor? If you were an expert in both are they equally efficient? Thanks!
shrotkatewa
Thanks Jack for the awesome video as usual! I know this is one of your earlier videos but it is still so amazing!
Quick question – I purchased the Kadence theme after watching several of your videos (based on your recommendation and the link). I now wanted to add a hero image just the way you've done it in this video but I want to make it scrolling image (3-4 images) with some text on it that also scrolls along with the image. Any idea how to do that? Seems like it is not currently possible to do this in Kadence.
Any help will be very much appreciated! Thanks!
SaQiib
Great Jack, Kindly tell us that how we can Download all the images png and icons etc from other websites, Thanks.
Ed Dock
Nice tutorial. I'm going into it.
Natalie Day
Thank you
Cindy Brewty
Thanks so much for your amazing videos Jack. I had zero knowledge of WordPress before I started watching your videos. Love them – especially the Kadence related ones. I have watched this particular video maybe 5 or 6 times and built & rebuilt the same tasters club site 3 times now & feel like I have learned a ton of stuff. Would really appreciate if you could do a video on optimising for mobile because with this tasters club site the accordion section & 2nd last section the text does not wrap around in the mobile view. I plan on getting the Kadence pro so, maybe there is some plugin I can use for that. Thank you again.
Matthias Klein
I'm impressed Jack! Tomorrow I'll try that LIVE with my #AIOP #WP Site to get rid of my current (free) CMS provider…
