Hey Party People! The astra theme is a popular wordpress theme but what do you exactly get in the pro? In this video, ill show you how to make a wordpress website with astra and astra pro. I break down all the features step by step! PS: make sure to like this video!

Namaste from India. Thank you very much. I am a pharmacist, and 22 years in the healthcare and lifesciences industry. Now as a founder I needed to make website. Building an entire site on my own under your guidance as Master Yoda. Thank you Yoda Darrel.
Hi thanks for the tutorial - I wanted to add that /%category%/%postname%/ is the option I go for because this allows URLs to read nicely when categories in blogs come into play. Cheers from South Africa.
That's a great choice! Using /%category%/%postname%/ in your permalink structure can indeed create more descriptive and organized URLs, especially for blogs with multiple categories. Cheers from wherever you are!
Another awesome video!! I’m not a professional web developer, but I’m developing two of my own sites. The first site I developed was for my real estate business using Elementor Pro and the Houzez Theme. Your instruction for that site was priceless. Now I’m in the process of developing an e-commerce site for another business I have. I’m planning to use Elementor Pro, Astra Pro, and Woocommerce. This video was also Jedi Master quality. I have a question for you. I’m in process of developing my header and footer. With the tools I’m using for this site I have several options for building the header and footer. For my other website I used Houzez Theme Builder to develop my header and footer and they look great. For my new site what would you recommend I use for designing my Header and Footer? Astra Pro Customizer, Elementor Pro, Astra Pro Site Builder, Other?, etc.
Hey! Thanks for the awesome feedback! For your new site, I'd recommend using Elementor Pro for headers and footers since it offers unmatched design flexibility. However, Astra Pro's Customizer is great for speed and simplicity if you prefer lighter pages. Either way, both options are solid! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Have you done cons and pros for Astra vs Flatsome? Which would you recommend for a fashion ecommerce site? I don't develop websites for a living. I hate the Elementor Pro yearly fees to have woocomerece. Is woocommerce required? What is the con if I dont use it? I was considering Divi until I found your videos. Love how flatsome theme is a 1 time fee, though. Please, any insight would be greatly appreciated.
For a fashion e-commerce site, both Astra and Flatsome offer suitable features. Astra is lightweight and customizable, while Flatsome is specialized for e-commerce with extensive customization options. Regarding WooCommerce, it's essential for e-commerce functionality. Without it, you can't list products, accept payments, or manage orders on your site. Considering your preference for a one-time fee, Flatsome could be a suitable choice. However, the best choice depends on your specific requirements and familiarity with the themes.
@darrelwilson Thank you. Would you recommend any CRM or email marketing tool for flatsome / ecommerce to research? I am a branded new small fashion business, would you recommend doing this later? I fear a lot of the "free" options companies offers will lock me in to paying for upgrades once I get more subscribers/clients. If I dislike their service, is it easy to transfer into a new company?
Hello Darrel. Thank you for all you. Pardon me if I sound like Oliver Twist asking for more, but, please when will you release your 2024 Elementor Tutorial. I am about to start a major project in Elementor and I need the latest guidance on building an essential website covering all the highlights. Thanks.
Hey! Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate your enthusiasm for the upcoming 2024 Elementor tutorial! While I don't have a specific release date just yet, I’m working on it and will cover all the latest features to help with your project. Stay tuned to the channel for updates! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I've multiple categories, and I'd like to know if it's possible to have multiple "blog" pages under different names, and have blog posts directed there automatically? Or would I have to do that manually?
Hey! Yes, it’s possible! You can create multiple blog pages by using categories. Assign posts to specific categories, then use category archive pages or plugins like Elementor Pro to display them under different names automatically. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Question: At 26:20, when you get “this page does not exist”, how do you fix it? I watched entire video but must have passed the answer. Can you post time line where you explain it. Thanks so much! 🙏
The "page does not exist" issue at 26:20 is usually a permalink problem. You can fix it by going to Settings > Permalinks in your WordPress dashboard, selecting a structure (e.g., "Post Name"), and clicking Save Changes. This should refresh your links. If I missed addressing it in the video, let me know!
Hey, i am a beginners, i want to learn webiste creation and designing, i literally dont know anything about this, starting from scratch, can i do this ?? And frim where? Which platform is suitable for me ?? Plz help me
Hey! Thanks for your comment! If you need any help, feel free to drop your questions in the comments. Also, check out our latest resources here🔥: darrelwilson.com
Hey! I’m glad the video helped! To make your Astra theme full width, go to the Page Settings in the WordPress editor, look for the Sidebar option, and set it to No Sidebar or Full Width. Also, check your Custom Layout settings under Astra Options. If you're still having issues, let me know! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
How do I specify the dimensions for the banner image? Currently, I have it set for "custom" with a padding of 30 for top and bottom, but the image still takes up a lot of screen on a desktop. The original image is about 900x1500 and it is being stretched across the screen and degrading the image quality. It looks ok on an iPad or smartphone but excessively large on a big screen. I am used to using software like Dreamweaver where I have precise control of things like image size. Any tips you can share would be appreciated. (I am using "Home Page Banner for Astra Theme" plugin)
Hey! To control the banner image size, you can adjust the max-width in the customizer or the theme's additional CSS. Try setting a specific width for desktop view, like max-width: 1200px;, and set the height to auto to maintain aspect ratio. Also, use a responsive image size that adapts to different screen sizes. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I think my main question at this point is this: How much should I do in Astra Pro (header and footer for sure?) before turning to my page builder? i.e.- What's the right 'mix'? Note: I'm not a coder or developer but have been working with WP for quite a few years and... The Bane of my existence is developers that are not oriented to mobile first when creating sites (mostly in Divi), and create sites that score horribly in Page Speed Insights AND often look like crap on mobile. I've decided to turn to the Astra Pro theme and the Divi AI Builder (we already have an Elegant Themes account) and do as much of the building as I can before turning to a dev for design tweaks - only if necessary. Some of the sites will be rebuilds and some will be built from scratch.
Start with Astra Pro for your header and footer to ensure a solid mobile-first foundation. Focus on layout and responsiveness first, then move to the Divi AI Builder for detailed customizations. Aim for a balance where Astra handles structural elements and Divi enhances design without sacrificing speed. Prioritize mobile optimization throughout the process. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Thanks for the run through. I've used Astra Pro for a while now and I still find the 'overlap' with the page builder functionality (Elementor Pro) confusing ....like should I use the Elementor footer and header builder or the Astra Footer and header builder, for example.....and which global controls in both affect what?!
Hey! Great question! For simplicity, I’d recommend choosing either Elementor or Astra’s builder for headers and footers to avoid overlap. If you prefer Elementor’s design flexibility, use its header/footer builder and turn off Astra’s headers/footers in Theme Customizer. Astra’s global settings control typography, colors, and spacing across the site, while Elementor’s global settings apply within Elementor layouts. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
I was stuck at 1:28:14. I'm using Astra theme and creating blog. However all my posts have been appearing close to the main menu. After editing the blog title, it appeared on top of the page like yours but the issue after that was I couldn't move the banner min height in deisgn or align that title at the middle or left or right. Please help me. Thank you
Hey! To adjust the banner height and align the title, go to the Customizer > Blog > Single Post. Look for the Design or Banner Settings to adjust the min height and alignment. If it doesn’t work, check if your theme layout overrides are active in the Page Settings while editing the post. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey Darrel I'm a video editor and was looking for website building tutorial to build my portfolio website. i really found your videos useful. Thank You. I can edit your videos and also make it to youtube shorts if you want. Let me know
Hey! Absolutely! The Astra theme is perfect for a DJ services website-you can showcase events, add booking options, and customize it for weddings, proms, or corporate gigs. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey , thanks! I prefer using Elementor for customizing websites due to its flexibility and ease of use. Astra is great for performance and works well with Elementor, so using both together can be very powerful. Feel free to drop your question.
NOT WORKING! I love this Guy for talent he has for teaching others how to! Unfortunately again new update on Wordpress, and everything changed, impossible to follow Darrel's guidance... i have stuck at the step where astra template should be installed and need to start at 25min section. It shows following"it looks like you have a website made with starter template. enable this to maintain your old data, including content and images." After this i need to press button (submit&build your website) but the theme on my website stays same basic template which was at the beginning. No Digital Marketing show up..
Hey! Sorry to hear you're having trouble. It sounds like the Starter Templates plugin might be keeping the old data. Try going to Appearance > Starter Templates, then reset any previous imports before starting fresh with the Digital Marketing template. This should clear out the old content and let the new template load properly. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi @Darrel, After installing the starter templates, my website is down, and I received this message: "There has been a critical error on this website." How can I resolve this? Thank you!
Hey! This often happens if there's a plugin conflict or a PHP issue. Try accessing your WordPress admin via recovery mode (check your email for recovery instructions from WordPress). Once inside, deactivate all plugins and reactivate them one by one to find the culprit. If it persists, update your PHP version in your hosting dashboard to at least PHP 8.0. Let me know how it goes or drop your questions in the comments below!
If the latest version of Astra doesn't show the Brizy page builder checkbox under the general settings, it might be due to compatibility updates or changes in Astra's interface. First, ensure that both Astra and Brizy are updated to their latest versions. If the option is still missing, try clearing your browser cache or checking in a different browser. Additionally, look for any theme or plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins to see if that resolves the issue. If none of these solutions work, consider reaching out to Astra's support for further assistance. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hi! I'm creating a website of my own using a template from starter templates, and I'm finding it difficult to update the footer. Like, the theme I imported has a 'subscribe to be in my mail list' something like that, but I don't want it and there doesn't seem to be a way to remove it using elementor(free) or the customizer.
Hey! To remove the subscription form from the footer in Astra, you'll likely need to edit the footer widget area. If you can't do it through Elementor or the Customizer, you can try these steps: 1 Go to Appearance > Widgets in your WordPress dashboard. 2 Look for the Footer widget area. 3 Find the widget that contains the subscription form and remove or edit it. If it's part of the theme settings, you might need to go to Astra Settings > Footer and disable or modify the footer content there. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
@@darrelwilson I have another question, if you don't mind. I'm finding it very difficult to delete any 'element' The right-click button doesn't work for me. There's no dropdown.
nice tutorial, but i am stuck when i create a new page like you did in your video, the header image does not appear and the logo desappears! because in white How do you add back an image under the menu to stay consistent with all the other pages of the site?
Hi! To resolve the issue with the header image and logo not appearing, first check Appearance > Customize > Header to ensure the header image is correctly set and visible. Also, verify the logo settings under Appearance > Customize > Site Identity to confirm it’s properly uploaded. If the problem persists, make sure there are no page-specific settings overriding the global header. Reapplying the header image in the customizer or adjusting the template settings might help maintain consistency across all pages. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! If the old template elements are still showing after changing the theme, it’s likely due to imported demo content. To remove it, go to Tools > Reset and use a plugin like "WP Reset" to clear out the demo content while keeping your WordPress installation intact. Be sure to back up your site first! Let me know if you need further help. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Astra used to allow importing images directly from the free Pixabay image bank. For some time now, I haven't seen this option. Has Astra definitively ended its collaboration with Pixabay, or am I doing something wrong?
Hey! Astra has indeed removed the direct Pixabay integration for importing images. You’re not doing anything wrong-it was a feature that they decided to discontinue. However, you can still download images from Pixabay manually and upload them to your site. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hey! To create an anchor link in Astra, first, add an ID to the section you want to link to in the "Advanced" tab of the block settings. Then, use a custom link in your menu or a button with #your-id as the URL. Make sure smooth scrolling is enabled in Astra’s settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
i Darrel! How are you? I really liked the video, you explain everything very well. I'm using an Astra theme (free version) editing with elementor. I followed all the steps you did, but sometimes it didn't work, especially when I tried to edit the blog, I put text and image, again text and image, all the text and images are together. Do you have any idea why this happens?
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! If your text and images are sticking together in Elementor, try these steps: 1. Use Separate Widgets: Use separate Text and Image widgets instead of combining them. 2. Check Padding and Margin: Add padding or margin to create space between elements. 3. Column Structure: Place text and images in different columns or sections for better alignment. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hi, I am starting a small news website about traditional events, traditional food, customs and the likewise. One of the most important thing is to have a calendar with all local/traditional events in country, and news about upcoming events etc... Is Astra free version good for that. Thank you very much
Hey! The Astra free version is a solid choice for starting your news website focused on traditional events, food, and customs. It’s lightweight and customizable, making it a great fit for your needs. Also, take a look at the GloriaFood plugin-it’s an excellent tool for showcasing traditional food, and it might add some cool features to your site. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
hey welcome ! You can set your homepage directly from the WordPress Customizer. Here's how: 1. Go to your WordPress dashboard. 2. Go to "Appearance" > "Customize". 3. Find the "Homepage Settings" or "Homepage" option in the Customizer menu. 4. Depending on your theme, you'll see an option to select a static page as your homepage. 5. Choose the page you want to set as your homepage from the drop-down menu. 6. Save your changes. After you set your homepage in the Customizer, whenever you visit your website's main URL, it will automatically display the page you set as your homepage. You won't need to manually add a link to it on other pages or posts.
Hey! If you don't see the option for Elementor in the Astra theme, it's possible that Elementor is not installed or activated. First, ensure Elementor is installed and active by going to the "Plugins" section in your WordPress dashboard. If it's already installed, check if the Astra template you're using is compatible with Elementor. You may need to switch to an Elementor-ready starter template or enable Elementor editing in the template settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
I am so confused. I am using Astra for the first time and I honestly cannot get the primary navigation on any of the interior pages. Was this featured discontinued in the free version or am i missing a setting?
Hey! It sounds like you might be missing a setting. The primary navigation should still be available in the free version of Astra. Go to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Appearance > Customize > Header > Primary Menu, and ensure that the primary navigation is enabled. Also, check that the menu is set to display on all pages. If that doesn’t work, try resetting your customizer settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Great info. The hostinger business package seems interesting.I have 10 websites all under 600 mb. For SEO purposes, is it better to have a VPS or I can have the same results with shared hosting?
Shared hosting can be suitable for smaller websites like yours, especially if they are well-optimized and don't require extensive resources. However, if you're looking for better performance and more control over your hosting environment, a VPS might be a better option. VPS hosting typically offers more dedicated resources and allows for greater customization, which can positively impact SEO by improving website speed and reliability. Ultimately, the choice between shared hosting and VPS depends on your specific needs and budget.
Guys, I'm trying to make a simple site on WP but no theme works for me. I tried to install a few simple themes and they just look messed up when installed (I did import the sample data). Now I tried Astra but the Astra dashboard and all other of its boards are just blank with no errors to be found anywhere. My guess is that my computer is restricting needed permissions somewhere as I had to run xampp as admin in order for it to work (I'm doing this on local). Not sure what to do...
Hey! Sounds like a local setup issue. Try updating PHP, increasing memory_limit in php.ini, and enabling curl, mbstring, and zip extensions. If Astra’s dashboard is still blank, consider a fresh install or use a different local server like Local by Flywheel. That should help!
Hi Darrel, thanks for your tutorial! A problem: with last versions of WP and Astra (I use free version) in the menus are disappeared all the submenu voices. Is this a bug or in the free version there's only the main level? Thanks again and greetings from Italy
Hey! Submenus should work even in the free Astra version. It’s likely a bug or a menu setup issue. Double-check your menu structure under Appearance > Menus and ensure submenus are correctly nested. Also, try clearing your browser cache and disabling any caching plugins. If it persists, update WordPress, Astra, and your PHP version. Let me know if this helps! Greetings to Italy! 😊
@@darrelwilson thanks for your reply. Menu structure is ok (with Twenty Twenty-five theme the submenu voices are visible), browser cache deleted (and I don't use any cache plugin). Both WP and Astra are updated to the last available version (WP 6.7 and Astra 4.8.6). Any further advice will be appreciated. Thanks again and have a nice Sunday.
The tutorial covers both free and pro features of Elementor. You can follow along with the free version of Elementor, but some advanced features may require the pro version.
Hello Darrel I have a question for you if selling services like logos, video explainers, web design etc is it best to create a website for each service or have all services under the one website?
hey , It depends on your business model and branding strategy. Having all services under one website can provide a centralized platform for potential clients to explore your full range of offerings. However, creating separate websites for each service can allow you to tailor the branding and messaging more specifically to each service niche, potentially targeting different customer segments more effectively. Consider your target audience, marketing efforts, and overall branding goals when making this decision.
Hello if I purchase Astra Pro through your link, do I still need elementor Pro to create custom headers, footers and custom product pages? Or can Astra Pro do it alone with Spectra Pro builder Thanks so much
hey, yes you can create custom headers, footers, and product pages using Astra Pro's features along with the Spectra Pro builder. However, Elementor Pro offers additional functionality and flexibility for customizing your website's design. Depending on your specific requirements and preferences, you may find Elementor Pro beneficial in enhancing your website's customization capabilities.
@@darrelwilson OK thank you for the quick response. I’ll do a little more research and then will be purchasing Astro pro through your affiliate link. Thank you again have a great day.
Hey! If the sidebar appears above your header, it could be due to a CSS or layout issue. Check your theme's settings under Appearance > Customize, and ensure the layout settings for the sidebar are correct. Also, inspect any custom CSS that might be affecting the layout. If the issue persists, try disabling plugins to identify any conflicts. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Hello ! Darrel, I cant edit the homepage in Elementor ...It just comes as one big block in “text editor” mode, and I can’t edit individual sections, I saw other people in this comment had the same problem and i tired the solution you gave but it didn't work(change page to full width ect..) Do you have any idea why this happens?
Hey! If your homepage shows as one big block in Elementor's "text editor" mode, it's likely because it was created using a different page builder or editor, like the WordPress default editor or Gutenberg. To fix this, try recreating the page entirely in Elementor or switching the page template to "Elementor Full Width" again, then edit each section separately in Elementor. Sometimes plugins can also cause conflicts, so deactivating any non-essential plugins might help too. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
If you have a backup of your website before installing the template, you can restore it to revert the changes. If not, you may need to contact Astra Theme support for assistance in resolving the issue. They might be able to provide guidance on how to remove the template or help you restore your website to its previous state.
hello my starter templates didnt appear on page ? theres an error msg :This page doesn't seem to exist. It looks like the link pointing here was faulty. Maybe try searching?
Hey! This issue might be due to a broken link or a misconfiguration. Try refreshing the page, re-importing the starter template, or checking your permalinks settings in WordPress. If the issue persists, feel free to ask for more help!
Hi @darrelwilson . I’ve just installed the Astra theme and installed the starter template for e-commerce store along with installing elementor. The moment I edit the home page with elementor, the sides of the page are getting cut off. Any idea how I can fix this as Ive contacted Astra and none of their suggestions have seemed to work for me?
Hey ! When using Elementor with the Astra theme, make sure your page layout is set to "Elementor Full Width." You can do this by going to the WordPress dashboard, opening the page you want to edit, and selecting "Elementor Full Width" under the "Page Attributes" or "Astra Settings" on the right side. This should fix the issue of the sides getting cut off. If the problem persists, try clearing your cache and ensuring all your plugins and themes are up to date.
I paid someone to hake me an Astra theme website, the main & shop page are identical, only have 8 products 1 column they scroll verticaly. Can I change the theme to Brand DNK which shows 3 columns accross without having to start from scratch.?
Yes, you can switch to the Brand DNK theme without starting from scratch. However, some adjustments might be needed to ensure the new theme displays your content correctly. It's always a good idea to backup your website before making major changes to themes.
@@darrelwilson Thanks for the reply, I ended up using the navigation editor to edit the columns (it's well hidden). I'm semi satisfied now. Please consider making a detailed video specific for ecommerce and where to find the most important settings.
Hey bro I am creating a website with starter template on WordPress through elementor but the issue is i can't see all sections in the navigator i just see in which i can only edit text also i also can't change the home layout image present in template earlier i thought it might be atemplate issue but i instal twot different template with also watching there tutorial in which they have all sections
Hey! It sounds like you might be encountering an issue with Elementor's navigator or the template setup. Ensure that you are in the correct editing mode in Elementor and that all sections are unlocked and visible. Sometimes, sections can be hidden or collapsed in the navigator. Also, check if any plugin conflicts might be affecting Elementor's functionality. If the problem persists, try reinstalling Elementor or switching to a different template to see if the issue resolves. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hey! You can store the data collected from forms using plugins like WPForms or Contact Form 7, which allow you to save form entries directly in your WordPress dashboard. Alternatively, you can connect your forms to a database or external services like Google Sheets for more advanced data management. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.
Can one have elementor pro and astra pro working on their site at the same time? I ask because I already have elementor pro with the hello theme and that theme doesn’t offer much
Yes, you can absolutely use Elementor Pro and Astra Pro together on your website. Astra Pro is a highly customizable theme that integrates seamlessly with Elementor Pro .
Hey! The Astra theme is super versatile and can create an Amazon-like layout when paired with WooCommerce and the right plugins. While it doesn’t come pre-designed exactly like Amazon, you can customize it to have a similar marketplace feel. For a true Amazon-like experience, you might also want to explore multi-vendor plugins like Dokan. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I don't have this template on my end. I'm so frustrated. I thought after 4 months of trying to put a website together that I finally found a tutorial I could follow along with and screwed all over again
Hey bro, it sounds like an issue with the theme or Elementor settings. Make sure your Elementor page layout is set to "Elementor Full Width" or "Canvas" under Page Settings. Also, check your theme settings to ensure no conflicts. If the issue persists, try re-importing the starter template or updating both Elementor and Astra theme.
Hello, Derrel Wilson The Flatsome theme "SLIDER" on my website has stopped working Please, how can I resolve this issue? I tried and tested it with different browsers but still not working. I also uninstalled all plugins and still not working. Please, tell me how to fix this issue?
Hey! If the Flatsome theme slider isn't working, first, check if your theme and WordPress are updated to the latest versions. Clear your site cache and browser cache, then try reactivating the Flatsome theme. If the issue persists, check the console for any JavaScript errors and consider reaching out to Flatsome support.

So I made this video about three weeks ago but if they change it to 1000 websites I really don’t think that’s much a big difference. I mean are you really going to host more than 1000 websites?

However, for more advanced features and customization options, the paid versions of both themes will provide a better experience. If you're just starting out, Astra Free with Elementor Pro is a great combo! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
This is badly in need of an update. I'm in the Elementor section now, and the controls are very different. I have to hunt down the things you talk about. Not a good look.

Another awesome video!! I’m not a professional web developer, but I’m developing two of my own sites. The first site I developed was for my real estate business using Elementor Pro and the Houzez Theme. Your instruction for that site was priceless. Now I’m in the process of developing an e-commerce site for another business I have. I’m planning to use Elementor Pro, Astra Pro, and Woocommerce. This video was also Jedi Master quality. I have a question for you. I’m in process of developing my header and footer. With the tools I’m using for this site I have several options for building the header and footer. For my other website I used Houzez Theme Builder to develop my header and footer and they look great. For my new site what would you recommend I use for designing my Header and Footer? Astra Pro Customizer, Elementor Pro, Astra Pro Site Builder, Other?, etc.
Hey! Thanks for the awesome feedback! For your new site, I'd recommend using Elementor Pro for headers and footers since it offers unmatched design flexibility. However, Astra Pro's Customizer is great for speed and simplicity if you prefer lighter pages. Either way, both options are solid! Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Have you done cons and pros for Astra vs Flatsome? Which would you recommend for a fashion ecommerce site?
I don't develop websites for a living. I hate the Elementor Pro yearly fees to have woocomerece. Is woocommerce required? What is the con if I dont use it?
I was considering Divi until I found your videos. Love how flatsome theme is a 1 time fee, though.
Please, any insight would be greatly appreciated.
For a fashion e-commerce site, both Astra and Flatsome offer suitable features. Astra is lightweight and customizable, while Flatsome is specialized for e-commerce with extensive customization options.
Regarding WooCommerce, it's essential for e-commerce functionality. Without it, you can't list products, accept payments, or manage orders on your site.
Considering your preference for a one-time fee, Flatsome could be a suitable choice. However, the best choice depends on your specific requirements and familiarity with the themes.
@darrelwilson Thank you. Would you recommend any CRM or email marketing tool for flatsome / ecommerce to research?
I am a branded new small fashion business, would you recommend doing this later? I fear a lot of the "free" options companies offers will lock me in to paying for upgrades once I get more subscribers/clients. If I dislike their service, is it easy to transfer into a new company?
Hello Darrel. Thank you for all you. Pardon me if I sound like Oliver Twist asking for more, but, please when will you release your 2024 Elementor Tutorial. I am about to start a major project in Elementor and I need the latest guidance on building an essential website covering all the highlights. Thanks.
Hey! Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate your enthusiasm for the upcoming 2024 Elementor tutorial!

I've multiple categories, and I'd like to know if it's possible to have multiple "blog" pages under different names, and have blog posts directed there automatically? Or would I have to do that manually?
Hey! Yes, it’s possible! You can create multiple blog pages by using categories. Assign posts to specific categories, then use category archive pages or plugins like Elementor Pro to display them under different names automatically.

Question: At 26:20, when you get “this page does not exist”, how do you fix it? I watched entire video but must have passed the answer. Can you post time line where you explain it. Thanks so much! 🙏
The "page does not exist" issue at 26:20 is usually a permalink problem. You can fix it by going to Settings > Permalinks in your WordPress dashboard, selecting a structure (e.g., "Post Name"), and clicking Save Changes. This should refresh your links. If I missed addressing it in the video, let me know!

How do I specify the dimensions for the banner image? Currently, I have it set for "custom" with a padding of 30 for top and bottom, but the image still takes up a lot of screen on a desktop. The original image is about 900x1500 and it is being stretched across the screen and degrading the image quality. It looks ok on an iPad or smartphone but excessively large on a big screen. I am used to using software like Dreamweaver where I have precise control of things like image size. Any tips you can share would be appreciated. (I am using "Home Page Banner for Astra Theme" plugin)
Hey! To control the banner image size, you can adjust the max-width in the customizer or the theme's additional CSS. Try setting a specific width for desktop view, like max-width: 1200px;, and set the height to auto to maintain aspect ratio. Also, use a responsive image size that adapts to different screen sizes.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
I think my main question at this point is this: How much should I do in Astra Pro (header and footer for sure?) before turning to my page builder? i.e.- What's the right 'mix'? Note: I'm not a coder or developer but have been working with WP for quite a few years and... The Bane of my existence is developers that are not oriented to mobile first when creating sites (mostly in Divi), and create sites that score horribly in Page Speed Insights AND often look like crap on mobile. I've decided to turn to the Astra Pro theme and the Divi AI Builder (we already have an Elegant Themes account) and do as much of the building as I can before turning to a dev for design tweaks - only if necessary. Some of the sites will be rebuilds and some will be built from scratch.
Start with Astra Pro for your header and footer to ensure a solid mobile-first foundation. Focus on layout and responsiveness first, then move to the Divi AI Builder for detailed customizations. Aim for a balance where Astra handles structural elements and Divi enhances design without sacrificing speed. Prioritize mobile optimization throughout the process.

@@darrelwilson Thanks for your quick and very helpful reply.
@@darrelwilson What about sidebars and widgets - global and non-global? Thanks.
Thanks for the run through. I've used Astra Pro for a while now and I still find the 'overlap' with the page builder functionality (Elementor Pro) confusing ....like should I use the Elementor footer and header builder or the Astra Footer and header builder, for example.....and which global controls in both affect what?!
Hey! Great question! For simplicity, I’d recommend choosing either Elementor or Astra’s builder for headers and footers to avoid overlap. If you prefer Elementor’s design flexibility, use its header/footer builder and turn off Astra’s headers/footers in Theme Customizer. Astra’s global settings control typography, colors, and spacing across the site, while Elementor’s global settings apply within Elementor layouts.

I was stuck at 1:28:14. I'm using Astra theme and creating blog. However all my posts have been appearing close to the main menu. After editing the blog title, it appeared on top of the page like yours but the issue after that was I couldn't move the banner min height in deisgn or align that title at the middle or left or right. Please help me. Thank you
Hey! To adjust the banner height and align the title, go to the Customizer > Blog > Single Post. Look for the Design or Banner Settings to adjust the min height and alignment. If it doesn’t work, check if your theme layout overrides are active in the Page Settings while editing the post.

Hi, nice video. For you, what do you prefer to use when customizing a website, Elementor alone or Astra?
Hey , thanks!
I prefer using Elementor for customizing websites due to its flexibility and ease of use. Astra is great for performance and works well with Elementor, so using both together can be very powerful. Feel free to drop your question.
NOT WORKING! I love this Guy for talent he has for teaching others how to! Unfortunately again new update on Wordpress, and everything changed, impossible to follow Darrel's guidance...
i have stuck at the step where astra template should be installed and need to start at 25min section. It shows following"it looks like you have a website made with starter template. enable this to maintain your old data, including content and images." After this i need to press button (submit&build your website) but the theme on my website stays same basic template which was at the beginning. No Digital Marketing show up..
Hey! Sorry to hear you're having trouble. It sounds like the Starter Templates plugin might be keeping the old data. Try going to Appearance > Starter Templates, then reset any previous imports before starting fresh with the Digital Marketing template. This should clear out the old content and let the new template load properly.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
Hi @Darrel,
After installing the starter templates, my website is down, and I received this message:
"There has been a critical error on this website."
How can I resolve this?
Thank you!
Hey! This often happens if there's a plugin conflict or a PHP issue. Try accessing your WordPress admin via recovery mode (check your email for recovery instructions from WordPress). Once inside, deactivate all plugins and reactivate them one by one to find the culprit. If it persists, update your PHP version in your hosting dashboard to at least PHP 8.0. Let me know how it goes or drop your questions in the comments below!
Now the latest version of Astra doesn't show the Brizy page builder check box under general.
If the latest version of Astra doesn't show the Brizy page builder checkbox under the general settings, it might be due to compatibility updates or changes in Astra's interface. First, ensure that both Astra and Brizy are updated to their latest versions. If the option is still missing, try clearing your browser cache or checking in a different browser. Additionally, look for any theme or plugin conflicts by temporarily deactivating other plugins to see if that resolves the issue. If none of these solutions work, consider reaching out to Astra's support for further assistance.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!
Hi! I'm creating a website of my own using a template from starter templates, and I'm finding it difficult to update the footer. Like, the theme I imported has a 'subscribe to be in my mail list' something like that, but I don't want it and there doesn't seem to be a way to remove it using elementor(free) or the customizer.
Hey! To remove the subscription form from the footer in Astra, you'll likely need to edit the footer widget area. If you can't do it through Elementor or the Customizer, you can try these steps:
1 Go to Appearance > Widgets in your WordPress dashboard.
2 Look for the Footer widget area.
3 Find the widget that contains the subscription form and remove or edit it.
If it's part of the theme settings, you might need to go to Astra Settings > Footer and disable or modify the footer content there.

nice tutorial, but i am stuck when i create a new page like you did in your video, the header image does not appear and the logo desappears! because in white
How do you add back an image under the menu to stay consistent with all the other pages of the site?
Hi! To resolve the issue with the header image and logo not appearing, first check Appearance > Customize > Header to ensure the header image is correctly set and visible. Also, verify the logo settings under Appearance > Customize > Site Identity to confirm it’s properly uploaded. If the problem persists, make sure there are no page-specific settings overriding the global header. Reapplying the header image in the customizer or adjusting the template settings might help maintain consistency across all pages. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
How can you get rid of the template if you change your mind? Only theme, but no template. It seems to be stuck even after changing the theme.
Hey! If the old template elements are still showing after changing the theme, it’s likely due to imported demo content. To remove it, go to Tools > Reset and use a plugin like "WP Reset" to clear out the demo content while keeping your WordPress installation intact. Be sure to back up your site first! Let me know if you need further help. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!

Great Suggestion !
Astra used to allow importing images directly from the free Pixabay image bank. For some time now, I haven't seen this option. Has Astra definitively ended its collaboration with Pixabay, or am I doing something wrong?
Hey! Astra has indeed removed the direct Pixabay integration for importing images. You’re not doing anything wrong-it was a feature that they decided to discontinue. However, you can still download images from Pixabay manually and upload them to your site.

How do you make an anchor link in Astra? this seems to be disabled.
Hey! To create an anchor link in Astra, first, add an ID to the section you want to link to in the "Advanced" tab of the block settings. Then, use a custom link in your menu or a button with #your-id as the URL. Make sure smooth scrolling is enabled in Astra’s settings.

How are you?
I really liked the video, you explain everything very well.
I'm using an Astra theme (free version) editing with elementor. I followed all the steps you did, but sometimes it didn't work, especially when I tried to edit the blog, I put text and image, again text and image, all the text and images are together. Do you have any idea why this happens?
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! If your text and images are sticking together in Elementor, try these steps:
1. Use Separate Widgets: Use separate Text and Image widgets instead of combining them.
2. Check Padding and Margin: Add padding or margin to create space between elements.
3. Column Structure: Place text and images in different columns or sections for better alignment.

Hi,
I am starting a small news website about traditional events, traditional food, customs and the likewise. One of the most important thing is to have a calendar with all local/traditional events in country, and news about upcoming events etc...
Is Astra free version good for that.
Thank you very much
Hey! The Astra free version is a solid choice for starting your news website focused on traditional events, food, and customs. It’s lightweight and customizable, making it a great fit for your needs. Also, take a look at the GloriaFood plugin-it’s an excellent tool for showcasing traditional food, and it might add some cool features to your site.

@@darrelwilson Is there for you a better theme for this kind a website.Thank you
Thanx Darren,
I am not quite sure how to give home page a link, can you remind me please?
hey welcome !
You can set your homepage directly from the WordPress Customizer. Here's how:
1. Go to your WordPress dashboard.
2. Go to "Appearance" > "Customize".
3. Find the "Homepage Settings" or "Homepage" option in the Customizer menu.
4. Depending on your theme, you'll see an option to select a static page as your homepage.
5. Choose the page you want to set as your homepage from the drop-down menu.
6. Save your changes.
After you set your homepage in the Customizer, whenever you visit your website's main URL, it will automatically display the page you set as your homepage. You won't need to manually add a link to it on other pages or posts.
When you select a domain, can you change it later on?
You can always make the website on a new domain, but you cannot change it
I don't see the option for Elementor builder. There was only beaver, and I am unable to edit the theme template with elementor. What should i do?
Hey! If you don't see the option for Elementor in the Astra theme, it's possible that Elementor is not installed or activated. First, ensure Elementor is installed and active by going to the "Plugins" section in your WordPress dashboard. If it's already installed, check if the Astra template you're using is compatible with Elementor. You may need to switch to an Elementor-ready starter template or enable Elementor editing in the template settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
I am so confused. I am using Astra for the first time and I honestly cannot get the primary navigation on any of the interior pages. Was this featured discontinued in the free version or am i missing a setting?
Hey! It sounds like you might be missing a setting. The primary navigation should still be available in the free version of Astra. Go to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Appearance > Customize > Header > Primary Menu, and ensure that the primary navigation is enabled. Also, check that the menu is set to display on all pages. If that doesn’t work, try resetting your customizer settings.

Great info. The hostinger business package seems interesting.I have 10 websites all under 600 mb. For SEO purposes, is it better to have a VPS or I can have the same results with shared hosting?
Shared hosting can be suitable for smaller websites like yours, especially if they are well-optimized and don't require extensive resources. However, if you're looking for better performance and more control over your hosting environment, a VPS might be a better option. VPS hosting typically offers more dedicated resources and allows for greater customization, which can positively impact SEO by improving website speed and reliability. Ultimately, the choice between shared hosting and VPS depends on your specific needs and budget.
Excellent brother.

Guys, I'm trying to make a simple site on WP but no theme works for me. I tried to install a few simple themes and they just look messed up when installed (I did import the sample data). Now I tried Astra but the Astra dashboard and all other of its boards are just blank with no errors to be found anywhere. My guess is that my computer is restricting needed permissions somewhere as I had to run xampp as admin in order for it to work (I'm doing this on local). Not sure what to do...
Hey! Sounds like a local setup issue. Try updating PHP, increasing memory_limit in php.ini, and enabling curl, mbstring, and zip extensions. If Astra’s dashboard is still blank, consider a fresh install or use a different local server like Local by Flywheel. That should help!
@@darrelwilson Thanks for the quick response, mate. I'll try that.
@@darrelwilson I'm not sure, but seams that disabling UAC did the trick.
Hi Darrel, thanks for your tutorial! A problem: with last versions of WP and Astra (I use free version) in the menus are disappeared all the submenu voices. Is this a bug or in the free version there's only the main level? Thanks again and greetings from Italy
Hey! Submenus should work even in the free Astra version. It’s likely a bug or a menu setup issue. Double-check your menu structure under Appearance > Menus and ensure submenus are correctly nested. Also, try clearing your browser cache and disabling any caching plugins. If it persists, update WordPress, Astra, and your PHP version. Let me know if this helps! Greetings to Italy! 😊
@@darrelwilson thanks for your reply. Menu structure is ok (with Twenty Twenty-five theme the submenu voices are visible), browser cache deleted (and I don't use any cache plugin). Both WP and Astra are updated to the last available version (WP 6.7 and Astra 4.8.6). Any further advice will be appreciated. Thanks again and have a nice Sunday.
are you using Elementor free for this tutorial or pro? is it possible to follow along if I use the free version of elementor?
The tutorial covers both free and pro features of Elementor. You can follow along with the free version of Elementor, but some advanced features may require the pro version.
Hello Darrel I have a question for you if selling services like logos, video explainers, web design etc is it best to create a website for each service or have all services under the one website?
hey , It depends on your business model and branding strategy. Having all services under one website can provide a centralized platform for potential clients to explore your full range of offerings. However, creating separate websites for each service can allow you to tailor the branding and messaging more specifically to each service niche, potentially targeting different customer segments more effectively. Consider your target audience, marketing efforts, and overall branding goals when making this decision.
Hello if I purchase Astra Pro through your link, do I still need elementor Pro to create custom headers, footers and custom product pages? Or can Astra Pro do it alone with Spectra Pro builder Thanks so much
hey, yes you can create custom headers, footers, and product pages using Astra Pro's features along with the Spectra Pro builder. However, Elementor Pro offers additional functionality and flexibility for customizing your website's design. Depending on your specific requirements and preferences, you may find Elementor Pro beneficial in enhancing your website's customization capabilities.

Hi Darrel, i need help, when i turn on the sidebar, its comes abover my header... Why? Please help!
Hey!
If the sidebar appears above your header, it could be due to a CSS or layout issue. Check your theme's settings under Appearance > Customize, and ensure the layout settings for the sidebar are correct. Also, inspect any custom CSS that might be affecting the layout. If the issue persists, try disabling plugins to identify any conflicts.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments.

Hello ! Darrel, I cant edit the homepage in Elementor ...It just comes as one big block in “text editor” mode, and I can’t edit individual sections, I saw other people in this comment had the same problem and i tired the solution you gave but it didn't work(change page to full width ect..) Do you have any idea why this happens?
Hey! If your homepage shows as one big block in Elementor's "text editor" mode, it's likely because it was created using a different page builder or editor, like the WordPress default editor or Gutenberg. To fix this, try recreating the page entirely in Elementor or switching the page template to "Elementor Full Width" again, then edit each section separately in Elementor. Sometimes plugins can also cause conflicts, so deactivating any non-essential plugins might help too.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.
@@darrelwilson Finally figured it out ! I recreated the page in elementor and it worked ! thank you so much!! ❤️

If you have a backup of your website before installing the template, you can restore it to revert the changes. If not, you may need to contact Astra Theme support for assistance in resolving the issue. They might be able to provide guidance on how to remove the template or help you restore your website to its previous state.

The moment I edit the home page with elementor, the sides of the page are getting cut off. Any idea how I can fix this as Ive contacted Astra and none of their suggestions have seemed to work for me?
Hey ! When using Elementor with the Astra theme, make sure your page layout is set to "Elementor Full Width." You can do this by going to the WordPress dashboard, opening the page you want to edit, and selecting "Elementor Full Width" under the "Page Attributes" or "Astra Settings" on the right side. This should fix the issue of the sides getting cut off. If the problem persists, try clearing your cache and ensuring all your plugins and themes are up to date.
Well done....thanks!

Hey! It sounds like you might be encountering an issue with Elementor's navigator or the template setup. Ensure that you are in the correct editing mode in Elementor and that all sections are unlocked and visible. Sometimes, sections can be hidden or collapsed in the navigator. Also, check if any plugin conflicts might be affecting Elementor's functionality. If the problem persists, try reinstalling Elementor or switching to a different template to see if the issue resolves. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll keep it in mind for future videos.
@@darrelwilson please... Don't take too much time
Sevgili Darrel sana bir tüyo: videolarına manuel olarak ingilizce altyazı ekleyebilir misiniz.Bu şekilde altyazıyi otomatik çeviri ile Türkçe (veya başka dilde) altyazılı olarak anlayarak izleyebiliriz
hey thanks for your comments , if you need help feel free to drop your questions in the comments .
where the search bar?😓
Hey! The search bar might not be enabled by default in Astra. To add it, go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Primary Menu and enable the search icon. If you’re using a custom header, you can add the search bar using the Astra Widgets option.

Merci Darrel, J’espère que ce tuto sera traduit en langue arabe prochainement

They don't do unlimited websites anymore. You must have made this video a long time ago. The number of websites you get now is 1, 10, or 1000
So I made this video about three weeks ago but if they change it to 1000 websites I really don’t think that’s much a big difference. I mean are you really going to host more than 1000 websites?
@@darrelwilsonthat's what I'm thinking

@darrelwilson what plans are ideal for this? Can I astra free with elementor pro or do i need paid plans for both?
Hey! You can definitely use Astra Free with Elementor Pro; they work well together. However, for more advanced features and customization options, the paid versions of both themes will provide a better experience. If you're just starting out, Astra Free with Elementor Pro is a great combo!

So Astra is now like Divi. 🤔
Nah I’ll have a video on divi soon when they release 5.0
Long time later we join again
Enjoy :)

@@darrelwilson i changed the Quality & fixed it. Thank you!
All I can hear is, "you guys" :) Great tutorial though thanks.
I’m working on that. Some viewer said I said it too much but thanks for letting me know.
This is badly in need of an update. I'm in the Elementor section now, and the controls are very different. I have to hunt down the things you talk about. Not a good look.
Hey! I appreciate the feedback! Elementor has definitely changed, and I'll make sure to update the tutorial soon to reflect the new controls and features. Thanks for your patience!
