Wow man. Just...wow! I've been looking for exactly this. No messin around with silly animations or crazy loud music. Just clear concise tutorial. Excellent job. Many thanks!
This video is exactly what I was looking for to get started! Very well explained and just using the default WP features without any additional plugins. Big thumbs up 👍👍
That video was so helpful, thanks. I'm a complete beginner at WP and have chosen to use the Twenty Twenty-Four theme despite others saying it is too hard and I should use an older one. It has been very challenging but bit by bit it's all sinking in. Your tutorial has been part of that. 🙂
Thanks so much for posting this. I am a former WD who coded my own websites. These new themes make it "easier" buh sigh a little bit of a learning curve. I was trying to figure out the new updates to use on WP and you made it soooo easy. LOVED, LOVED your right-to-the-point approach, yet it was very well explained. Keep them videos like this one coming- you are doing a great job. I'd love to see more. Quick question. What do you think about builders like Kubio, Elemntor etc.. Do they really make a difference? I felt tied up when I tested some of them,. TIA. Keep up the good work Ray. Loved your style of explaining- immediate follow.
Excellent video! Thank you very much! I was a Wordpress developer 15 years ago and now it seems has a lot of changes and I feel like a beginner with it haha
Thanks for this informative tutorial. It is very well structured and shows how to work with an fse theme very well. It is also very commendable that you enable the assets to be downloaded.
Thank you for this brilliant tutorial! I'm just starting with the WordPress Twenty Twenty-Four theme and I'm looking for where to set the background image instead of the background color (like you showed in "Set your custom styles 06:39") but I can't find where I can set this. Do you know where or how to set the background image instead of the background color ?
Hi! Thanks for the video! I wanted to ask if you know how to change the website logo, I could put it at first... but now I'm trying to change it and I cannot find where to edit the logo. Thanks again!
You talked about everything except the navigation menu. WordPress has changed all of this part, which used to be in Appearance and Menus; today, it's no longer there, and it's very difficult to find the section for adding new menus.
Hi! Thanks for this video, is very helpful. I have a question about the site title, how can I eliminate the row of the title beside the logo without hide the title in the browser tab?
This is great! thank you so much. I have a question regarding making a website that uses this theme multilingual. I'm trying to use Polylang but since this theme hides the menu options I'm confused on how to do it. Do you have any workaround or plugin that works with it?
That is something I've never dealt with (multilingual site), but there may be a way to create a custom menu. It's tough to say without knowing how your specific theme and/or plugins are interacting.
Thanks for the video. I created a page, but not sure why I can only see the section "Posts" instead of the "Page" when trying to link a URL to another website (9:33) any idea?
I'm not quite sure what you mean... if you link to a 3rd-party website, just copy/paste since the search won't bring anything up. If you have published pages on your own site and want to link to those, they should show here when you search.
@@RayDelVecchio for some reason they don't show up. I need to create a post using the pages template, and that way I can copy and paste as you suggest. I manage to fix that anyway. Thanks for the guidance.
Thank for the video. I have question regarding page templates (maybe I'm using the wrong terminology here), but what I'm trying to create is a page template or layout using all of the blocks and/or patterns that I want to have on a page, and then save that page layout so that I can reuse it multiple times. For example, Let's say that I have 6 categories and would like to have a page for each, but still keep the layout of the page uniform across all 6 pages. In the end, I'd like to be able to create a new page, pull up this category template, and then add the items associated with that specific category. Every attempt that I've made always results in a blank page. Not sure if I'm supposed to populate the blocks with content (only to delete it and add the correct category content later), but when try to create the template by just adding the blocks and patterns that I want on that page, and the save it, I can never find it later. What am I doing wrong?
Yes, it sounds like something you can do. Look into creating a new template that applies to all categories. Within any blog-related template you can use the "Query Loop" block. So the template will apply across all 6 categories in your example, and the query loop block is what imports the specific blog posts for that category onto the page (I briefly went through the Query Loop block on one of my tutorial from the Twenty Twenty Three theme last year).
I think the pattern picker is only for adding templates, not individual pages. But if you click the add block button and choose "see more blocks" or whatever that option is, you should get the patterns tab in the left menu.
My backend looks different. A month or so ago I started seeing WonderBlocks in green on the top. If I click on a page to edit I don't see the editor or templates for 2024 theme, I see the WonderBlocks. I have to search for the editor
They are likely linked. It's designed that way so if you update your site logo, it'll update everywhere you've added it to your website. If you want to place a custom logo somewhere, you can use a plain image block.
Does anyone know how to change the width of the blocks that are automatically set to be centered and a 1/3 of the full width? it seems so simple but for some reason I can't figure out how to change the width. I saw how he changed the width of the columns but I haven't been able to alter the width of the blocks themselves. I feel so stupid lol
Is it possible to have different menus show up if a user is logged in or not? I have it for my Twenty-Twenty One theme but can't seem to get it for Twenty Twenty-Four
I know the site identify changed for me with the logo upload. It used the logo and you saw it was updating the site identity when I saved the template. This used to be in the Appearance > Customize menu, so I'm not sure off the top of my head if there's an alternative way to set that on a block theme.
With this 24 theme. Can you put a button on top of the hero image? And my hero image has bezels, but I can't seem to make it a hard corner. Do you happen to know where it is located?
You should be able to put a button block anywhere... or you might prefer the "Cover" block, which is an image with other content overlayed. Regarding the bezel question, I think you're just referring to the margin and/or padding. Go to the top level block for the hero section and see if you can set the margin & padding to zero to make it extend 100%.
Interesting, could be a mobile style overwriting the desktop one. Since I know CSS, I usually fix that way vs. struggling with a potential editor bug, haha.
I've found that certain fonts won't display correctly on Android phones. I used a font called Libre Baskerville. It worked fine on my desktop PC but on my phone it defaulted to a different font. I'd embedded the font in my web site. It wasn't a WordPress site, it was just an HTML / CSS site.
Hi Ray, thanks for the tutorial. When I tried to download the assets it recognized my email address from a previous download and wouldn't allow me to access it. Is there another way to access? Cheers - roy
Good call - I have to try and fix that... it's the standard response from my email provider if you're already signed up. If you reply to one of my emails I'll send it to you.
Thanks for your reply Ray. I used a different email address and was able to download the pdf. However, next time I'll have run out of options so if you can fix that it'd be great. Once again, thank you for your video. Cheers

The template didn't automatically show up when i try to make a new page, can someone help me pleaseee😭😭😭😭😭😭
I have the same problem. I just see the default text editor.
I'm trying to get the 15 tools and client questionnaire, but since I already signed up for your email list, your site won't allow me to get it.
Yes, this was a problem with my email system. I think I fixed it, please give it another try!
When you increase the text font size in the Twenty Twenty-Four theme, for example to 1.1 REM or 1.2 REM, the text on the phone becomes very small

If this original theme editor could make a website, why do we use the Elementor?
I just made a video on this subject... check it out - th-cam.com/video/idswAlJJssE/w-d-xo.html
