Dale you are with out question the best instructor for Wordpress and Elementor on TH-cam. I have been trying to learn this for months, and with in 27 min. I understand more than ever. Thank You. Now Back to work, I got to get my stuff out there.
I created a wordpress website 4 months ago using your previous video and since then I liked how you taught every step in a simple way. Today I was going to create another website and was again looking for video to revise some steps, and damn you got a new video with different design and this is latest too, I can't be more happier to see your video again dude. Thanks for it and I wish you success.
Dale your TH-cam Chanel rocks! I have watched almost all your videos in less than 3 days and cant get enough! I have watched TH-cam videos for a few years now as a way of learning new skills and this is the FIRST review I ever wrote. You should feel special! I would like to ask you to explain how to manage the website once it has been posted, exemple, as I m learning more and I want to change the website template, or add new pages etc If you can make a tutorial about that it would be awesome. Thanks for your work and I am cheering for your business. Sincerely Paula Dorca.
Sans aucun doute, vous êtes le meilleur instructeur que j'ai observé pour apprendre à créer des sites Web à l'aide de WordPress! Continuez ce bon travail!
You don't need to open the youtube video in order to get its link, just right click on the thumbnail and choose "copy link location". Thanks for the tutorial.
@Create a Pro Website Hello. Quick question. You've talked about how Google takes into consideration website load times for their website ranking. Does a video background for your webpage have detrimental effects to the average website? Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer. Have an awesome day/weekend 😀
Thank you so much, Dale, you share your knowledge in a good manner from scratch I was looking for an instructor's video before I launch my info product online via my personal branded website as I have rich experience in Lead capturing and Business Development on automation for (B2B, B2C) industries that's why I decided to share my knowledge and experience via Digital information product but I was stuck due to my personal website and your tutorial solved my issue.
With Hostgator, would you recommend using their SEO Tools service? My bill is coming up again and I thought I had canceled it last time but can't remember. Do you think its worth the $71.40 they're about to charge for it?
Great tutorial Dale But when I tried to change the colour of the button in the contact form I did not have the option within the menu list. Where did I go wrong?
Greeting from India,Your video is really awesome ,Exactly such this type of tutorial I was searching on youtube past 1 month,You fulfill my needs and my target website to build.Thanks a ton .......I have also subscribe your channel......One again thanks a lot.....Good work !
hmm, I did buy a domain name and expect to pay monthly but instead, I need to pay all at once. did I do something wrong? Sorry get excited from your video hahaha lol and too new to Hostgator.
Yes, correct. HostGator will tell you what the monthly payments will average out to, but you pay for the domain registration and hosting yearly. So for the first year you pay up front.
Seriously such a great tutorial video! I had to create a website for my online class and this answered so many questions! So I cant thank you enough! Also, I am a video creator as well and your work really is truly inspiring!
Dale, can I do all the creative work designing my WordPress website before I sign up with a host company ? I want to take a month or so getting everything set up just right before I publish it so at the beginning I don’t want to feel rushed or pressured to get it on line.
Having trouble. i bought the domain and signed up to Wordpress and bought the basic version. I cannot install the theme? it says to upgrade to business?
Awesome video, helped me a lot. Thx for the work. // Just a quick info: The theme "astra" was suspended by wordpress in august last year. I dunno if there are still new viewers since the comments are mostly older. But if someone cannot find the mentioned theme it is because it is not active at the moment.
hallo there..enjoying your tutorial until I came across the Astra theme....But Astra theme is only able to be used in the Business Wordpress as are all plugins..I already have a website business acount for another project ( have had for 11 years -but just getting to grip with changes on wordpress ..easy to just keep using it the way you use it and not watch any of the developments like block editor) and wanted a simpler website for another creative project that I did not have to Pay so much for ..so this training is really another level and not training for a free or 'personal' wordpress package..I am trying to find a site which will help me with either the free or personal wordpress package ..do you have one?
Dale, Firstly I hope you and your family are well in this difficult time. Thank you immensely and sincerely for all of your channel and for creating all the videos. You are a true teacher and master of tutorials for website building. I have a request to make I am having difficulties in creating a website for my art work. The website I want to use to showcase my work but also as a ecommerce platform to sell my work. Could I make a request if you could do a tutorial to create a website for artists. It would most definitely help me who is struggling as a artist to create a site. I want to use WordPress but facing hurdles as to design and layout. Also I believe it would most definitely help others like me who are struggling. Many Thanks, Regards Rahul.
You are amazing bro.......You full fill my thought ....This is the portfolio site which i want to make ....I was searching in you tube and finally got it........Your teaching style is awesome ........ i question I want to ask you that can I use your json file for my website....Please reply💗💗
your Wordpress tutorial series looks great bro, just start watching some of the videos already impressed. Kindly guide us which latest & trending features best for our website like live chat(crisp) vs email popup
Nice one Dale! I had no idea how to build a site, but thanks to watching, and working alongside your tutorial, I managed to build one and enjoyed every minute of it.
That's an interesting question. This video proves that Wordpress + the right plugins can make an incredible looking website and that can be used to display who you are what you have to offer the company. That being said, do your skills expand beyond using wordpress? For example custom coding etc.? If not that's totally cool but from my perspective, it would be important to at least relay those facts too(?).
Hi Dale, Thank you for the great tutorial! I`ve made my own portfolio website following every step of yours. I have just one issue: How to customize the main menu on the top in MOBILE MODE ? I would be gratefull if you help me.
When you are in the customizer, you can look at the bottom of the screen and click on the mobile phone Icon to change the screen to mobile mode. From here, go to the header builder and you can change the "Off canvas" menu which is the mobile menu. You can set it to use the same primary menu as your regular header or you can create a second menu in the Menus tab specifically for the mobile menu and select that one instead. Hope this helps.
Hello, great video. I was wondering can you use elamentor with any theme such as like a WordPress theme or any other them you choose? Thanks in advance
Wow man awesome site you have created Tumbs up for you the real wordpress hero. One thing watching your video from pakistan and recommend it to my friends as well. Great work keep it up.
Dale hi! How are you? I have this doubt that I can not find anywhere and I don't really know what I'm doing wrong either. I'll quickly explain: I am using wordpress, and i've installed elementor to create the website. When I go to visit my site it always shows me a wordpress template (most of the times for blogs too) and when i want to edit it with elementor it never looks as the elementor template, it always responds to the wordpress template which I dont know how to deactivate! So when i visit the main page, usually shows me the wordpress template + blog entrance, when all i want is to build from a clean elementor canvas a portfolio. What am I missing?
Good job bro I leaned a lot, I have a question, if I write everything in French on my website if someone in USA go to my website it will be automatically change in English or not?
this is cool, I'm looking to upload digital prints, charcoal drawings, sculptures etc. I've only got an iPad tablet. do I need more computer power? I mean is installing WP an app or program?
Thank you for a great tutorial! I'm having a weird problem with elementor that I can't seem to track down online. When I want to select that blue "six dots" button at the top of the section, it disappears. As soon as my mouse isn't hovering over the background image, that little blue menu disappears and there is no way I can click on it, it's driving me mad, please help?
This happens quite often just FYI. It is a frustrating issue that happens when Elementor mixes with certain themes and settings. It is usually something you just have to fenagle. Remember you can right click anywhere on the background image and click on "Edit Section" and it is the equivalent of clicking on the six dots. I think elementor Included the right click capability for that reason but dont quote me on that. 😂 Hope this helps. If you cant right click and click edit section, another work around I have done is to duplicate the section and then you can click on the six dots on the lower section, make your edits, then delete the top section which is a duplicate. Hope one of these helps you cause that is exactly how I deal with it.
Great video Dale, have you ever tried to combine a Word Press photography website with JAlbum photo galleries? I'm looking for a great photo gallery tool since I do have hundreds of galleries with at least 150 photos each and with the standard plugin in WP it's so difficult to manage. Any suggestion on how to combine WP and JAlbum? Thanx
Dale, thanks for the great video! I was easily able to follow the guide and create my very first website. I have one finishing touch that I want to add - a menu item on my primary menu that either downloads my resume, or just shows a picture of my resume. Is there an easy way to do that with the plugins we used in this video?
Not sure if I missed it but it seems it doesn't show how to give more functionality to buttons other than assigning a URL link to them. What if I need a button to open an executable file or to display a text file in a pop up widget?
With the shape divider, in your template it works, like you can have the two slants seamlessly touching each other.... but when I do it I can't get rid of the gap even with a negative margin and bring to front
I know this is way after this video has been posted, but is there a reason the Astra theme wouldn't show up as an option for me? Is there a similar theme I could use that would still work with the video's instructions?
Hi, your tutorials are very good. I'm just starting to use WordPress and it's awesome. Are you using HTML , CSS and JS for your web design or only WordPress ?
Your videos are just great, straight forward and simple. Keep up the good work and good luck with the new studio! One question : I’ve been following this video to build a website for my son but he’d love the header background to be black. Is there anyway to change it? I’ve tried every nook and cranny and can’t find a way! Your help would be wonderful. 🤗
Great video again...I always enjoy your videos and the tools that you recommend for creating beautiful websites are awesome...I am looking forward to test your useful tips..keep up the great work! 😊
Can use all this, I mean building a website, for free? Instead of paying, can you just take in the disadvantages in exchange for not having to pay? Because for me, paying money would be a but over the top for my needs and the disadvantages you listed to concern me, so having a free alternative with the same website building tools would be great.
Your videos have been really helpful to me while building a website for my internet company. But, I'd like to suggest a topic for a video where you can explain how to use the WordPress free builder without purchasing the hosting and domain because sometimes it isn't entirely feasible to spend on the website domain and hosting right away while kickstarting an initiative and wishing to have a portfolio website on the side. Hope you consider this suggestion, thanks.
is it possible to add blog section on my portfolio website? i am thinking to create a portfolio website but i wanna make my main source of traffic the blog posts. plz reply
The "propagation" is taking way longer than the hour max that Dale predicted. Still waiting after 4 hours. Is the current higher internet use (COVID) causing the slow down or did I do something wrong?
hey dale, how do I make the MARGINS around TEXT smaller? when I switch to mobile + tablet viewing mode, there are HUGE margins around my text which make it hard to read on a phone. Any advice would be gratefully received, thank you so much!

That's an interesting question.

That being said, do your skills expand beyond using wordpress? For example custom coding etc.?

What am I missing?
Love your video but the template link doesn't work. How can I download it? Is there another way?
Thanks!
A friend of mine told me not to use professional photos on my portfolio website, instead, I should use stock photos. What do you think about that?
Good job bro I leaned a lot, I have a question, if I write everything in French on my website if someone in USA go to my website it will be automatically change in English or not?
no if u write in french it will be french
this is cool, I'm looking to upload digital prints, charcoal drawings, sculptures etc. I've only got an iPad tablet. do I need more computer power? I mean is installing WP an app or program?
Love this Video, Dale. And your voice is music! ♥︎
Great content Dale. How do you buy your domain name for longer than a year?
Do you have a video for what should be in the privacy policies that we linked in the footer?
Thank you for a great tutorial! I'm having a weird problem with elementor that I can't seem to track down online.

Is there an easy way to do that with the plugins we used in this video?
did you ever figure it out? Cause I cant get a menu. I can normally get one but with this setup i cant get the menu in there
Not sure if I missed it but it seems it doesn't show how to give more functionality to buttons other than assigning a URL link to them. What if I need a button to open an executable file or to display a text file in a pop up widget?

Thanks for this! Excellent tutorial for setting up a portfolio page.
Yes this tutorial is great. I have also made a complete tutorial on portfolio website. I hope you would love it
This was such a best Wordpress tutorials I learnt so far and I made my draft website as well. Thanks for your hardwork
I know this is way after this video has been posted, but is there a reason the Astra theme wouldn't show up as an option for me? Is there a similar theme I could use that would still work with the video's instructions?
I'm saving this video on my bookmark :). I always watch this to review some of the pointers. Great Video!
Well done Dale..Looks awesome
Thank you so much Dale! You're the best! I love it! So great!!! ❤️❤️❤️

very nice video dale, very educational
You are really the best i've ever watched! thanks a lot again!
Can use all this, I mean building a website, for free? Instead of paying, can you just take in the disadvantages in exchange for not having to pay? Because for me, paying money would be a but over the top for my needs and the disadvantages you listed to concern me, so having a free alternative with the same website building tools would be great.
Can you do the portafolio website just by using the code ?Because i want to see how is the code, only the front-end i mean.
Your videos have been really helpful to me while building a website for my internet company. But, I'd like to suggest a topic for a video where you can explain how to use the WordPress free builder without purchasing the hosting and domain because sometimes it isn't entirely feasible to spend on the website domain and hosting right away while kickstarting an initiative and wishing to have a portfolio website on the side.
Hope you consider this suggestion, thanks.
I would use a local host
is it possible to add blog section on my portfolio website? i am thinking to create a portfolio website but i wanna make my main source of traffic the blog posts. plz reply
The "propagation" is taking way longer than the hour max that Dale predicted. Still waiting after 4 hours. Is the current higher internet use (COVID) causing the slow down or did I do something wrong?
Thank you for video but can you make video for web loading speed have to get bether loading speed becouse for this sample is too long web loading time
Wow, you make it simple
What an amazing job! just wow! For sure you are on of the top of the best! We cant thank you enough!Total agree With the fellow underneath
