You cannot secure a solid wood panel to a frame. They expand and contract with humidity changes, which could crack the panel or frame. They need to be set in a slot with no glue or fasteners. For the kind of construction you are using, you need to use a sub-straight like plywood or MDF etc. something that would be painted. See if you can find a good example on YouTube.
Kreg the rails together to each other, not the panel. the panel must be able to move
or it will wreck like DaglaRumad said. That is the purpose of a 5-pc door (4 rails+1panel) The panel should slide in a groove in the rail and small pices of foam can keep it from shifting around.
Wouldn't it be better to let the panel float in the grooves of the rails and stiles rather than screwing the panel into them? Seasonal swelling and shrinking of the wood across the grain is likely going to mess up the cabinet door otherwise. The panel might even crack.

new at making doors,last 2 sets sucked big time.after seeing your video with Kreg Jig I now have a set of doors that look good and really works.looking forward to more of your how to videos with Kreg Jig.
Great use for pocketholes, but you should be using a faster drill. I find it is best to use a corded drill with a speed of over 2000 rmp. Nice apron too!!

I applaud you for the video and your woodworking skills. Most people don't do; they just criticize. I encourage you to continue doing!
