Hi Steve. Interesting video. I learned a lot thanks.
Liked this video a lot, going to watch it again later
I have themify, but when I try to install a theme, it says "413 Request Entity Too Large"
Enjoyed this – very useful! I would love to see more! Thank you!!!
Great video but i was looking to see how you incorporated the theme packages and other packages you used into WordPress. I'm a 63 year old baby in WordPress. eg download wordpress, then what do you do to add themify and what do you do in wordpress to add the other program.
You are good. The World Needs all the good that you do!
Yes, please do share with us more of your WP know-how. I would especially appreciate an introduction for someone who has just purchased a domain + hosting package and wants to know how to get started.
What an un-geekly way to do it…
Steve, I appreciate hearing about your experiences learning and setting up your WordPress site and would watch more. We do not come to knowledge by one means alone and I think we can add your experiences to our knowledge base.
Excellent video as usual. Yes indeed, Steve, please share more on WP. I'm just starting to get into it.
Steve, I love your videos but I do have a comment on this one. You have a large following and many will follow your advice on WP, even though you state you are not an expert. (I see one fan already asking for more WP videos). Please caution everyone about selecting themes and plugins that are not approved by wordpress.org. There a lot of themes that look pretty but are badly coded or even contain malicious code.
I know of small business owner that used a purchased theme and left all of her digital products open to freely download simply because the upload folders were missing an index.php file. She even paid a company to install and set up this theme. It wasn't fixed until I contacted them and pointed the problem.
There are plugins provided by WordPress.org that will verify the themes follow their standards.
Great info Steve. Much appreciated. Keeping it simple for newbies and love it. Now you say you "host" your site on your own. So show us how to do that sometime. Thanks
Great video. More WP please.
