[rymehawk]

where do I put the image folder? my static page is showing up as a template in wordpress but the images are not showing up.. like they are in the wrong folder

[parahumanoid]

I didn't quite catch how does an empty "placeholder" page cascade to a blog? Does it just skip over to index.php (unless page.php is present) to render it? If so, how does it know it should pull all of the posts? Shouldn't it give me a "nothing found" page?

Thanks for the video.

[MegF142857]

I'm just learning about WordPress, which why watching this video. As others... I was wondering about the directory too. I finally found it under the files "File Manager" on cpanel of my hosting site(Justhost). It isn't any extra cost.

I think the point of this video is that you can use something like Dreamweaver or whatever you want to make your own code to make custom templates for a customized WordPress website, then simple to FTP upload to be included in the file templates. Cool.

[michaelaforman]

for example Hostgator web hosting have a utility at the cpanel which installs Wordpress with 2 or 3 clicks. I love Wordpress, you can make wonders with that.

A little tip to save some money: in case you decide to order Hostgator webhosting, coupon code HGGREEN2011 gets you $9.95 discount from the first bill. I am on HG over a year with 10 websites and so far happy.

[LiquidNihilism]

this is stupid because ten seconds into it, its worthless... wordpress directory? thats not on mine, i dont wanna pay for directory, im already paying for my site and to link it to wordpress, how much more do i need to buy just to have an extremely basic html site on wordpress? im not the only one who thinks this way so dont tell me i should just shut up and pay more. thanks for nothing

[parahumanoid]

@LiquidNihilism

I think you've confused a couple of things here. He means the directory in your hosting control panel (you do have a file manager in your hosting account, don't you?) where wordpress is installed. It's likely to be your web root. Then you go to wp-content/themes/theme-name and do the rest of the stuff he shows. That part doesn't pertain to WP's dashboard, it's the web host control panel.

[LearnToBlog]

Great tutorial! This made it sound very simple! Wordpress is so powerful.

[MTHKITEBOARDS]

I understand what you are doing now after watching 30 videos, I will try it but my free wordpress does not have those options.

Any help would be great thanks

[SirYarquest]

Worthless! The options on his template are not in mine. Way too vague.

[parahumanoid]

@SirYarquest

Ukless you are using wordpress dott com, you should have these options. Look closer. It's a basic install.

[jobleads]

Thanks for the help I got first try

and I am not an advanced user

I have been trying to do this all day

thanks

[sfi145]

Only useful for advanced users

[sfi145]

Too fast and no good unless you know how to do this already - only useful for advanced users

[johnjohnson9961]

@sfi145 That's where the pause button comes in handy. Listen to him, pause it, do what he says, repeat. I'm not an advanced user and it worked great for me. The only thing he could do better would be to come over to your house and do it for you.

[gowebbaby]

you created a nice helpful video.I think one can create custom wordpress templates viewing this video.

[tpjava1]

Great video. Any way to create a custom template but be able to use the installed plugins?  I've got this bit working fine but plugins wont work?

[lucieanne12]

This just makes me really mad that you didn't explain a thing about how to get the HTML code from the Publisher or Front Page document. That is just so assumptive, and I hope you write back to me. I spent this entire night trying to figure it out from Publisher Help.

[lucieanne12]

Not a great tutorial. How do you get the HTML code from Publisher? You lost me in the beginning.

[iperezgenius]

great tutorial! thanks for the effort

[sonitekca]

This is so clear and helpful. I have been looking for this information for so long. thanks for the information.

[gilespittock]

Hi, does anyone know why I can't find the template option dropdown in Wordpress?. I'm using the latest version but it doesn't appear on the right hand side as it does in this video.

[iWebBuddy]

Thanks for the tutorial.

[svenasvena]

Thank you thank you. This is so clear and helpful. I have been looking for this information for so long. The only thing I would add to make it even simpler is to show people how to create the page with microsoft word instead of frontpage.

I hope you do more Jeff. What I would like to know is how to add the email opt in box form Aweber and get it aligned in the middle. Hope you can help.

[marckolius]

You have just helped me understand some fundamentals. Thank you senor!

[MoeBedard]

A lot of thing can be done on Wordpress. For any beginners out there looking how to customize your Wordpress check out my videos on my channel such as How To Create An Author Box In Wordpress, How to Add a New Theme to Wordpress and Wordpress: A Designer's First Step. I myself use Wordpress to market my web page every day. My videos are step by step tutorials that are pretty straightforward and easy to follow.

[BOBTHEBUTCHEROFBLISS]

This was a great tutorial, yes - But none of my images are uploading? What am I doing wrong?

[deanhome1]

does it matter what version of wordpress

i tried the tutorial like you showed but didnt work out good for me

[peace153]

Very good tutorial. I think WORDPRESS is the best solution for creating a website.

[mikelCold]

The wordpress website is not good for this kind of stuff. You helped me in ways the no one can understand!

[karlaidoscope]

I can't find this famous "Control Panel".....can someone please tell me where it is??

[WizardResale]

If you are using 2.8 or better you will find all the necessary links on the left side. You need Pages and Settings

[ByKerBill]

Hi Jeff - Terrific video - I'm a beginner, not advanced, and it filled in a lot of missing pieces for me. Thanks again. Bill McGuire

[blogx113]

WTF is that wordpress from the 80s thats not what my wordpress panel looks like~ or is that shitty Frontpage?

[onixya1969]

OMG, FrontPage, some software should be illegal LOL.

[Evandon1]

LMFAO

[wwwSEOWritersNet]

A blog that contains custom written articles is a great tool to offer fresh content to viewers of your niche or product market. You can help sway their opinions by offering your expert views and giving them the information to back them up. You then link your blog posts to your main web site to that once the person is convinced that buying your gizmo, gadget, service or potion is going to change their lives they can click on over and buy it from you.

[Tenochtitlan2012]

thank you for your video

[VegasRose17]

I'm new to Wordpress. I've heard it is flexible and one can do a lot with it. Your video made a believer out of me.

Thanks!!!

[mjt1517]

Hey genius, there are more people on a beginner level than there are advanced users. Basic information is appreciated by people who are just starting out.

[Yobarosancunotamare]

Sa imi bag pula in ajuotrul tau de cacat!

[1awesomenerdfighter]

Hey thanks a ton for this.

This made the process of learning the basics of creating a custom page super easy so I totally appreciate it.

[LaFemmeReel]

When I go to "Options" and the "Read" I don't have the same reading options to change it to a static page. I only have Read Options for Blog Pages and Syndications pages. The Blog pages only lets you change the number of post that are seen on your front page but no option to change that front page. Is this a templete issue?

[seek2amuse]

how do you go to the WP Directory,WEBePanel??

[yy4u2rel82]

Hi Houdy1020

I am just new to creating blogs and the info you have on your site is awesome. I found it very easy to understand and follow. When I get a bit more confident I will definitely give it ago. I have 1 questions as a newbie.... Where did you get the second code that was on your notepad from?
