วีดีโอ

Hi Taylor, many thanks for this valuable video. I consider my self a beginner, even I have good knowledge in HTML and CSS. I had always that idea fixed in my head, that I must learn every thing to mastery and then start to freelance. But considering what you say, that is totally right. But, can you please explain to me what do you mean to use WordPress for design or to build websites. How can I use my knowledge in HTML and CSS on WordPress? I want to ask you if you can give me some suggestion about learning and understanding ins and outs of WordPress to be sure that I can solve any issue with the client website, because this is my nightmare in this field, I always have fear of just thinking that the client website get broken. Many thanks to you.

Hi Sir thanks for video. I have important question about the returned json/wp api; about custom querying such as: if you need to get information about orders such as which items were bought by customer Taylor (3 tables involvement; items + customer + purchases), how to return such a query with wordpress json please?? or what workaround do we have?

I have been a developer since 2008. In most cases, I use Laravel or Symfony Framework. One time I tried WordPress. It is easy to start with WordPress. But as for me, it is hard to maintain projects on WordPress, and it is not as flexible as sites written on a framework. WordPress is good for startups and simple sites. I also tried to work on UpWork - but it is extremely hard to get the first order and as a result first good feedback. I am stuck at this stage ))

is this still applicable in 2024? im just starting in wordpress dev :)

Yeah as an introverted developer myself, learning how to build relationships with people has been the most challenging thing for me. But as I've spent more time focusing on self-growth, searching for clarity, and trying to know myself, it has made it a bit easier to improve those soft skills. I definitely find beauty in and enjoy the challenge though!

I watched your very first video on how to run Wordpress on your local computer it was was very helpful. I’ve just started working with Wordpress again and I have some programming knowledge with PHP. Wondering if you have any tips on the limits of customization on Wordpress and woo commerce and any learning resources for a beginner that wants to do some customization on woo commerce and Wordpress generally.

Good to see you're making videos again, I always enjoyed your content. This video had some really great advice for all developers, not just web. It is vitally important to concentrate on people skills, they will help to smooth out some of the rough spots we face on the job. And I know from experience, that when it's time to hand out promotions people skills will out weight your coding skills hands down.

Glad to see you back. I'm looking forward to your future videos.

I have currently used css, js, jquery, tailwind in many projects. I have am also learning php, can i just skip php for a while and jump to wordpress and try freelancing?

I'm a bit confused where to do the hosting/domain for freelance with clients. Could you offer some advice on that? That whole area is confusing me

Thank you so much for sharing the lessons you learned from the mistakes you made, of course it would be helpful for us. Can you please shear your What's Up, Telegram or any other contact, if it is possible.

3 years later to say loving the content for an inspiring freelancer.

Thank you for your videos Taylor. I've recently found your channel and I have been watching your videos on freelancing, Upwork, WordPress and web development. In fact, your videos have helped me recover the motivation to pursue a career on web development. I have been suffering strong impostor syndrome and one of your videos helped me quite a bit. I hope you are doing well. Kind regards from Venezuela.

heyy are u okay? we miss your videos

I Love you dude , you are a real life motivation!

I know I'm late to the party, but I just heard about this and it's just amazing. Over the years Worpress had become very code-unfriendly.Being able to get wp content and display it however you want without dealing with wp templates is almost a dream come true.

Hello, how do I email you

Hey man! Thanks for the video! I asked some people about how to become a Wordpress developer and they told me that I need to be expert in JavaScript and PHP also! Is it true? Or as you said I can land jobs with just my knowledge in HTML and CSS?

Hi, thank you so much for the video! You gave my confidence to get started with Upwork! I'm a housewife and the skill of Wordpress Setup & Designing is just newly gained. I'm struggle to get started with Upwork because I don't have any porfolio to be show to, and I was thinking what I don't have. And you're right, I should focus on what I can provide instead of what I'm lack of... Thank you!

Thank you a lot. I`m a polish WordPress web developer, trying to start making website`s for english language people. Your video about starting on UpWork, helped me a lot

How about HTML and JavaScript, isn't that needed to?

Hello there, I cannot understand How understrap theme add {style.css} file? I searched get_stylesheet_uri() in understrap but not found..

Did you say you were 13 when you started? Impressive poise and confidence. Bravo my man bravo.

Hi Taylor, Am learning wordpress, and hoping to do freelance- but at the moment it feels like sky high and that I dont know enough ( I learned html&css, a bit of js, learning wp now) Can I start freelance ? I struggle to believe in myself. But I really want make it, as this is the only option for me to bring some income for my family. I have a baby and cant go work - and working from home- would be ideal.

Are you alive or dead? Confused. Because I didn’t find any videos of yours in a year. 😕

Superb explanation..looks very useful ..thanks
