These block themes are truly very powerful😳... If I may suggest, always take a minute to show how the site looks on mobile, also because the further we go, the more websites are used, especially on smartphones compared to desktops😉
Wow, Jamie - this is so enlightening! I am determined to keep up with all the WordPress changes, and your videos are a big help. Love the bento grid idea and the gradient fade on the video. Thank you!
Hey Jamie, great video, I was wondering how do you work on the mobile version ? I mean how this site you made for example look on mobile ? Thanks a lot for your help 🙏
Great video thanks IS it possible just with gutenburg to insert image carroussel, or testimonials caroussel, or sliding logs (logos smoothly sliding in a horiental band)?
I've been looking for a good clean theme FOREVER. There's no navigation menu in the downloadable file? I love this website though. Thanks so much for offering it for free.
i found a way, i cant remember what i did. @@jamiewp ty. I think there is a bug in the button color though. It saves as red when i'm using outline with no background. strange? or have you run into this.
I've been at it for about a week now, trying to get accustomed to the block editor as I am trying to switch from Astra theme to core. So far, the issue I have with the block editor is customizing the site header. Making the header mobile responsive is a pain! I could be wrong but it seems like a minimal search cannot be used in the header, only the full classic search bar. I hope this gets addressed in the next wp update. Keep up the good work with the vids man; Your vids have been helping me with my site transition!
Hello, I have a question and sort of a challenge for you: how you make a website with a full width background image, each page with a different one? thank you very much for the content and videos.
I will try to make a tutorial- but the best way would be to use the cover block in the header template part, and set the background image as ‘featured image’ . That way each page can have a different background header image.
What block theme do you use for your actual development? I was going to use Spectra One, but it seems to be dependent on the Spectra Builder rather than core gutenberg blocks. I believe I would lose everything if I switched themes. I dont think that is the case for something like switching from Frost to twenty twenty-four
Hi, it depends a little on the project, but you should be able to use Spectra one without spectra add ons. - im a big fan of the new twenty twenty four theme as well
I wish you had shown a bit more of the process of putting rows, columns and the coverblocks together for this video. When recreating this it was a bit of a mess getting the sizes and alignments right.
@@jamiewp Thank you Jamie. I usually spend some time on these design videos you make to train my Gutenberg skills though. Anyway, I did manage to replicate it without too much trouble, mission accomplished.
Looks great. For some reason I'm no able to change text positions on cover blocks? Also, you skipped through the trickiest part for me which is to have the 2nd bento grid row. When I try it I have to parts on the left but these are the same height and there fore double the height of the one on the right?
Thank You for your video. The only thing i dont really enjoy is that we don’t have the time to understand everything you do on the site editor. I’m going to keep looking for a more in depth tutorial on your channel. It would be very helpful because I find this theme/full site editing feature very VERY frustrating to use. I can’t find anything I’m looking for, I feel like it’s overly complicated. It took me so long to figure out how to design a header in a slightly different way, and I’m still not sure how I managed to align my navigation links not to the right, as it is by default. It looks great, I can see from your videos that a lot of cool stuff can be made with it, but heck why did they complicate this so much 🤯 it’s so not user friendly. For instance : why does your header change between your two pages? Also the logo seems quite smaller and has a dark background. (Unless the background comes from the image of course.) How can you make sure that things will stay the same from one page to another ? Isn’t it supposed to be the default behavior of full site editing? Thanks for your answer 🎉❤
I do love these site re-creations :) Is there a way to create the video header page with video that plays sound? And I'd like the images in the bento grid to be clickable. Is that possible?

Great idea - will do 👍
@@jamiewp 🙏🏻
The only thing we need in Gutenberg for cover and group blocks is to make those whole cards clickable and to be able to edit the hover properties.
Great idea for a tutorial 👍
Do you mean it exits?
nope but you can tweak core blocks@@vivekkumar-qd3ev
Actually it existings in our Gutenberg Pro plugin , details here www.pootlepress.com/2023/10/gutenberg-pro-gets-fancy-post-grids/@@vivekkumar-qd3ev

Cool 😎 thank you 🙏
I'm trying this rebuild too. Thanks for the inspo!
Good luck!
Hey Jamie, great video, I was wondering how do you work on the mobile version ? I mean how this site you made for example look on mobile ? Thanks a lot for your help 🙏
Great video. I'm a beginner who is still using Elementor. Would you recommend switching?
Thanks in advance
Thanks Michael - it’s certainly a good idea to learn what’s possible with core WordPress before jumping straight to a page builder plugin.
Great tutorial and easy to follow. What are your opinion on Divi/Elementor vs Gutenberg?
Amazing! I love it thanks
thanks Nick
Great video thanks
IS it possible just with gutenburg to insert image carroussel, or testimonials caroussel, or sliding logs (logos smoothly sliding in a horiental band)?
Yup, there’s a few plugins out there that will do this
I've been looking for a good clean theme FOREVER. There's no navigation menu in the downloadable file? I love this website though. Thanks so much for offering it for free.
You should be able to just add the navigation block - did you try that?

Really good content! =D

If you download the free theme then you can just copy and paste mine 😉
@@jamiewp Thank you Jamie. I usually spend some time on these design videos you make to train my Gutenberg skills though. Anyway, I did manage to replicate it without too much trouble, mission accomplished.

You can set the height of each cover block (in settings) - if you download my free theme you can copy mine :)
what about mobile and responsivenss in the bento grid and the cover blocks? i found it a bit difficult to do a good responsive layout in gutenberg
Im using the columns block (which uses flexbox) so they will stack by default on mobile , or you can add a little css to change.

Hi - yup i have lots of slower step by step tutorials on the channel 👍
I do love these site re-creations :)
Is there a way to create the video header page with video that plays sound?
And I'd like the images in the bento grid to be clickable. Is that possible?
Thanks Helena, atm theres no way to do both these with the cover block
@@jamiewp is this something that’s coming in future releases of WordPress?
Is this 2024 theme?
Yup 👍
