Great tutorial. No fancy graphics, no irritating background music, clear sound, not too fast, not too slow. Measured, balanced and precise delivery. You clearly know your stuff. Why can't all UA-cam vids be like this?
Clifton...what a great ULTIMATE GUIDE this is. If those people running Kadence were smart, they would pay you to do a series of videos for them...there are no other tutorials that match yours.
Clifton - I have been struggling with understanding WP and Kadence in particular. Your tutorials and teaching style are among the best I have come across on UA-cam, thank you very much!
I have been learning WP for the last 4 months as I am planning to work on some blogs to share my life's learnings with the world. I am nearly 60 now, and not new or teaching to learning as I am a professional coach/trainer for the last 38 years or so. Computers have been my friends since 1984, which means I am not scared of them. I have seen scores and scores of tutorial videos, but you are the first teacher Mr. Clifton, who has made me understand things much-much better than many of them put together. You are the best in my eyes. Please keep up the great work you are doing. PS: I have also done some VO in advertisements over the years. And I love your voice.
Just want to say that I was very discourage to try and figure out all this techie stuff, until I landed on your video. Congratulations on a superb video and a clear way of communicating to your audience. You are a very good teacher and have mastered the art of putting yourself into the seat of a newbie designer, May God bless you in helping thousands of newbies building their very first website.👍👍
Thank you for an absolutely AWESOME tutorial! I am new to Kadence, and while attempting to use it, I found other videos did not explain it in such detail as you have. It was extremely easy to follow along with you step-by-step. While watching the video and seeing how well you presented yourself and the information, I subscribed! I'm looking forward to more videos that you have produced. Keep up the excellent teachings!
Amazing. You are a gifted teacher. I who has little patience for videos, have watched this almost in its entirety. I am an old Drupal hack and now want to move over to WP.. go figure. This is what I needed.
Bro! Thank you again for covering KadenceWP. This is the ultimate guide for real! I think you should break it down into multiple bitesize (10 - 20 min) videos to gain even more viewership and help the UA-cam algorithm. You really covered the header and footer in detail and that needs to be highlighted. Thanks, again, for a very necessary and timely tutorial.
@@CliftonWP My Elementor Subscription just expired but now that I have learned the "Row Layout," I feel confident that I will have no need to renew m subscription. BTW what are your thoughts on Oxygen?
someone who understands meaning of the word "ultimate" at last. I hope that whole lot of people will fully appreciate the amount of work and knowledge shared over here...
Hello Clifton I would like to thank you for this fantastic tutorial on the Kadence Theme and Blocks - I am a beginner with Wordpress and your tutorial has helped me a great deal - you're a great teacher, with a great attitude - Keep up the good work !
It has taken me a very long time to figure all of this out - Kadence wasn't even released when I started and I didn't like any of the themes. Once I got Kadence there wasn't really anyone doing deep dive training until Clifton - I'm so grateful! I'm finally getting it :)
Been working with WordPress for a long time. New to Kadence, there are so many features it can get confusing. Really appreciate your organized approach. Now if I can just remember it. LOL
Well done. Thank you. I've been using the Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks for a couple years now but I picked up a few things I didn't know by watching this. Just subscribed to your channel. Thanks again.
Thank you for such a fantastic walk through! I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out certain bits and pieces in an ad hoc manner, but I needed to just sit down and get a good overall training like this. Yes, it's a long video, but I now feel like I understand important concepts and how things work together. You explained things conceptually and gave good examples, including important details, without getting into the weeds or being long-winded. I'm super excited to finish building out my blog now! HUGE thank you.
You are a VERY good instructor. Thank you for using a yellow highlighter for your mouse, and showing other comparisons as you instruct, especially between the free version and paid ones. Well done.
Thanks for putting this tutorial together, you have a great teaching style. I've tried using Kadence in the past and got overwhelmed but after watching this walkthru, I feel confident about using the theme again.
Thank you, Clifton, for this awesome video tutorial on Kadence! It's a long content but very informative and comprehensible. I know that I wouldn't be able to get it in one go, yet you make it sound so simple. You are an inspiration and a great teacher! Keep your tutorials coming. 💖
Excellent Tutorial! Calm voice. Easy to follow along and digest. A 5/5 star instructor. I am sure this took a lot of time and effort on your part. Well done! I have purchased the Kadence Full Bundle through your link - thank you for your time and I hope the small commission you earn from my purchase will inspire you to keep making Kadence tutorials. I have also subscribed.
Hey Clifton, Thank you so much for what you are doing. Can you please make an in-depth video on WordPress speed optimization? Please create a video if you have enough time. Thanks again.
Fantastic video. Learned bits about Kadence from other videos but this one gives a great overall - almost like a birds eye view of everything. I understood why & where things worked that I didn’t know before. Thanks so much.
This is an absolutely fantastic deep dive into Kadence. Absolutely fantastic tutoring, so much knowledge delivered in a way which is accessible. Thank you so much. This guide has showed me a great way to start to learn Kadence instead of fumbling around in the dark clicking on things and breaking my ideas! Sincerest thanks from London UK for sharing your invaluable information.
Absolutely fantastic! Won me over to use the Kadence theme after almost losing hope on how I'd build my website. You are a great teacher. Your focus on detail is precisely what helped me. I needed this length of video. ION, are the wireframes and starter pack options no longer provided? I was in step with what you were demonstrating and couldn't see those two on my end.
Thank you Edith! I appreciate you watching! The Wireframes have been updated to the Pattern library. You'll see it now in place of the Wireframes and Starter Packs.
Really love your style of describing (what you chose to explain, how you explained it, and the pace of explaining every option). Your voice is so soothing to listen to! Calms me and takes away a lot of my tech anxiety. I have been struggling with understanding what all the options mean, and how Kadence fits with Gutenberg and elementor and wordpress as a whole.
Absolutely fantastic deep dive into tutoring, I already learned so much knowledge just this awesome video tutorial Thank you so much. you got my subscribed.
@@CliftonWP Hello, how to get the pictures like the model images for a jewellery website if not making a website using template webpages and making it following your from scratch video? Please reply, also it would be great if you could share your tutorial link for making a jewellery ecommerce website using free kadence theme. Just a newbie here and also please share a link of video for tea, coffee, packed healthy snacks like an ecommerce one with kadence theme please🙏
Hello dear Hogn - Brilliant introduction - thanks. your videos are a great resource for any one just starting out in all things Kadence Theming and WordPress: You provide an in-depth and crystal clear walkthrough of very important topics. Would you do some vids about the new Version 6.1 That would be awesome!
Hey Clifton, When I saw 2 hours an 5 minutes of play time, reality struck me...your a serious dud...But gonna love the content because it's something I need to learn! Thanks for the vid!
Really enjoy your videos Clifton I love Kadence but it can feel overwhelming from the off as there is so much it can do ..for eg. never knew what a modal was for instance. A deeper dive into the advanced PRO features would be really good. Your teaching is great thank you so much x
Thank you so much Natalie! I completely understand what you mean. Kadence is very powerful and indeed has a lot of awesomeness to it. Thank you for your suggestion on a deep dive into Kadence Pro. I've added it to the queue and can assure you more Kadence and Kadence Pro videos are on the way!🙂
After WP 5.9 & 6, and Gutenberg becoming ever more powerful, do we need Kadence Blocks Pro? As we have more and more block-based themes available, can inbuilt WP FSE and Gutenberg’s ever increasing functions do the job of Kadence Blocks/Theme Pro bundle? Btw, awesome tutorial Clifton! Happily subscribed!
Thank you, Aladeen! I appreciate you watching and I appreciate the sub! You have a fantastic question. Yes with WP 5.9 and Gutenberg improving it is becoming more viable as a website builder, however it is nowhere near comparable in capability to the functionality of Kadence Blocks and the Kadence Theme. The customization capabilities of the default Gutenberg blocks are still quite limited and the variety of blocks in Kadence Blocks Free and Pro gives it an edge over the default Gutenberg. WP 5.9 is a massive improvement, however, there are still basic parts of it that are still in the works. Kadence WP allows you to do far more with what WordPress has created in Gutenberg and is currently far in the lead. 🙂
Thanks - This truly brilliant and taught me so much and saved me so much time. KadenceWP should adopt /promote this - it's so much better than anything from them! 😀
I'm a third of the way thru but I'm a subscriber now... By far the most comprehensive Kadence tut out there. I've been waiting for someone to cover every option/button/toggle/etc... This seems to be it. Well done Clifton, really appreciate you taking the time to do this.
Hi Clifton, nice to see your focus on Kadence and Gutenburg. I am new to the whole WordPress arena, but I have chosen to focus on this combination instead of going done the usual Elemenator path. I coach English for businesses here in Europe, so as a solopreneur I am sure these tools will be more than enough. Do you think you will ever do a Deep Dive on the above with LearnDash, that is one tutorial I would follow. Looking forward to going through the whole video, timing is perfect. Thank you in advance . . . Karl
Thank you Karl! I appreciate you watching the videos on the channel! Yes, there are plans for Learndash for the channel and it will be a deep dive. :-) Thanks again and stay tuned!
Really great video! This is a great help. You explain things very well and take the time to show what you are referring to. Youève also got a great voice for making video content! Thanks for creating this video.
Great video Clifton!!! My fault is I'm not sure to understand the difference between using the Kadence theme and Kadence Blocks in building a website, and which could be pros and cons of the two options
Thank you Fabio! You'd actually want to us both. The Kadence Theme handles the external structure and framework of your website, while Kadence Blocks contributed to the deign and layout of your pages.
hey great video, I just want to add that it will be good to show the final website at the beginning so that viewers will know and decided if they want to follow all the way to the end.
Well, I guess they don't have a choice if they want to understand Kadence to the full extent. It really doesn't matter, how the page looks, since it is just an example of how to use the theme, not how to design a page :)
Thank you!!! Your video is super! You helped me a lot to understand how to use the settings. I have a big like and constant subscription! You are great - you explain it very clearly and in detail.
Hi Clifton, been going through your wonderful videos. On the archive page of my blogposts, is there any way to change the color of the page numbers and highlight color? Really appreciate your expertise here.
Hi Matthew! yes, while on the archive page access the customizer from the admin toolbar. Select the Blog Posts tab, then select the Archive Layout and finally switch to the design tab. On the design tab you can make changes to the Archive Layout colors. I hope that helps!
@@CliftonWP Thank you very much for getting back to me. There is no option on there to change the color of the page numbers or highlighted color. Any other suggestions?
Hi Clifton, I subscribe to alot of people who teach but you are patient and slow for an old granny like me LOL. I appreciate the time you take to really explain things as I have the aptitude, desire and a big WHY but I can't keep up with people who go so fast!! :) That being said I want to ask you this - I can't seem to get the copy and paste of the affiliate links right. I'm using free Kadence, and for instance I'm trying to populate a link from my hosting co - they say copy this code and it'll populate the image w the link. I can't make it work. I've had to copy and paste the image then put the hyperlink behind it, but if they change the code behind it then my image could be incorrect if it has a sale price or something on it. What am I missing? Maybe I don't understand how the embedded code works? Thank you!! Hoping you have a video for that :)
Hi Granny D! Thank you very much! It sounds like you are talking about an embeddable affiliate link with an image. You can past this in your website using the HTML block. I'd be happy to hop on a quick Zoom call to get a better understanding of what you are trying to do if you are able. Just send me an email to clifton@cliftonwp.com and we can set something up!
@@CliftonWP Hi and thank you! I just ran into this tonight as well "Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response" - starting doing this after upgrading my security...someone mentioned it had something to do with the G blocks? I'm dead in the water on editing until I figure this out - I'll email you, ty!
@@CliftonWP Hey! Just wanted to say thank you so much for your personal attention to help me, I resolved both issues and my front page is done!! (fireworks :)) LOL. I really appreciate your help, we don't always get replies from people we leave comments for - I've even emailed people on the forms on their websites....crickets. I know it's probably hard to respond to so many people, not sure I could do that, but I just wanted to say I appreciate you!
Thank you Arena! I have given Blocksy a try and it is very robust and easy to use. I primarily use the Kadence theme because of the additional suite of tools it comes with and because they have their own blocks, Kadence Blocks for maximum compatibility.
A great and fantastic instructive tutorial. I'm only halfway through the course and I'm excited to see what happens next. Will definitely push Divi aside and go with Gutenberg and Kadence. Thanks for your time and effort.
Thanks for this video Clifton. Probably the best video I have seen on a Wordpress plugin. Well done. Keep it up. Do you use elementor or just the kadence functionality for your page builder?
Thank you very much Marlon! Yes, I previously used elementor depending on the project. Had elementor since the beginning. Kadence has taken over though as the favorite for our usage.
@@CliftonWP Would you recommend to replace Elementor with Kadence? I know there are some advanced this you can't do with kadence, but when it comes to the average website, do you think it is good enough to use on all sites?
Soothing voice Clifton. Is there a way to create and design custom category pages with Kadence for my blog website? I have 3 categories with 4 subcategories for each, I want to use the category pages as a landing page to navigate to my subcategory archives...
Thank you Sounak, this is definitely possible using a combination of Kadence Pro and a custom post types plugin. Also perhaps the Query block in Gutenberg. I'll see if I can create a tutorial demonstrating this.
@@CliftonWP Thanks Clifton! I'm pretty new to this ... a video from your side incorporating this would be helpful... On the internet I find only elementor
Thank you for the amazing video! So much help! One question tho...If I already have some content on my website, can I still go for a new starter template or am I risking of losing everything? :(
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. Yes, a new starter template is meant for empty sites so you do run the risk of overwriting your content. Thanks again!
@@CliftonWP Thanks for such a fast answer. Im looking for help online because im getting error 503 when I import the template. I decided to go for it and readjust my content afterward, but.... Do you know why that happens? I found a great one and wouldnt mind starting again. Pls advise me :( :(
@@estrella2302 Thank you! Error 503 is a server related communication issue. I recommend clearing your cache and trying again or if it persists, reach out to your web host and let them know what you are experiencing.
Thank you for this tutorial. I just switched to kadence free and i like it a lot. But I want my post links to be bold letters, and in my previous theme, i added a css code to implement it. But I havent found any instructions with kadence. Can you please help me? Thank you so much.
You are very welcome. Kadence Blocks and Elementor are great tools. That being said I have a strong preference to Kadence Blocks and highly recommend it. There are some features in Elementor that people may find useful, however I have found that I can do all that I need to and more with Kadence without the extra bloat that comes with page builders.
Thank you Tom! I you mean for the Hero area, then you'll want it to be 1920px in width. For all other featured images, WordPress tends to resize those for you accordingly 150px thumbnails, 300px medium and 1024 Large.
@@CliftonWP I had one a couple more questions. 1) I am using the free Kadence theme and love it. However, will this theme get regular updates to make sure it is compatible with future version of wordpress? Does the update show in our wordpress admin so we can just click update and it does it automatically like all other themes I have used? 2) The same with the Kadence theme pro add-on. I am thinking about purchasing it through your link. Will this get notification with updates in the wordpress admin where I can just click update to get the update? 3) What is the Kadence support like? Do they answer quickly?
@@tomphelps3174 My experience has been very positive with both the free version of Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks and The Pro Versions as well. Both the free and Pro versions get regular updates and improvements. In my opinion, Kadence is leading the pack. The support is fantastic. They are very prompt, responsive and they resolve issues quickly, and have always provided regular updates on where they are with resolutions of issues. As a pro user you also get to open support tickets that are focused on any issue you may be having. They have promptly resolved any issues I've encountered. There is also a community forum for Kadence within their Support arm. From what I have experienced I have full confidence in KadenceWP and their products. They are excellent.
@@CliftonWP Ah, Clifton. My contribution is a pittance in comparison to the value you provide in your 'deep dive' videos. I'm a slow learner, and I'm very grateful for the methodical, in-depth way you teach. You're a class act. Thank you so much for your terrific work.
Hi👋 👋 👋 I have a question I just started with wordpress, one of the most preferred page builder to me is Kadence. Now I have a website built with Gutentor and I need to edit some pages. Can I use both Kadence and Gutentor on the same website altogether without breaking or slowing the website?
Hi Walaa! First congratulations and welcome to getting started with WordPress! Kadence is awesome and yes you can use gutentor and kadence on the same website. 🙂

Thank you so much Niharika! I am glad you found the video helpful. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support!🙏
Thanks my bro. This is the best tutorial, and you are pro when you describe things
Thank Haiab! I appreciate you watching!

Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Bravo Clifton! You explain things so clearly and concisely. I am a new subscriber and looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you very much Chad! I appreciate you watching and more are on the way! 🙂Thank you for the Sub!
Thanks - This truly brilliant and taught me so much and saved me so much time. KadenceWP should adopt /promote this - it's so much better than anything from them! 😀
Thank you so much Leigh!!!!! I appreciate you so much! Thank you! :-)
I'm a third of the way thru but I'm a subscriber now... By far the most comprehensive Kadence tut out there. I've been waiting for someone to cover every option/button/toggle/etc... This seems to be it. Well done Clifton, really appreciate you taking the time to do this.
Thank you! I appreciate that and thanks for the sub!
Very Useful Video. Thank You CliftonWP!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Great Video I leard alot and have recomended it to others. Do you have a video on WP Posts?
Hi Clifton, nice to see your focus on Kadence and Gutenburg. I am new to the whole WordPress arena, but I have chosen to focus on this combination instead of going done the usual Elemenator path. I coach English for businesses here in Europe, so as a solopreneur I am sure these tools will be more than enough. Do you think you will ever do a Deep Dive on the above with LearnDash, that is one tutorial I would follow. Looking forward to going through the whole video, timing is perfect. Thank you in advance . . . Karl
Thank you Karl! I appreciate you watching the videos on the channel! Yes, there are plans for Learndash for the channel and it will be a deep dive. :-) Thanks again and stay tuned!
Thank you for the wonderful video.
One question: can we use JetEngine with Kadence blocks and Kadence templates?
Thank you for this good work. Helped allot. Subscribed.
You are very welcome!
Awesome! Thank you. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
Really great video! This is a great help. You explain things very well and take the time to show what you are referring to. Youève also got a great voice for making video content! Thanks for creating this video.
Thank you so much, Julie! I appreciate that and I appreciate you watching!
I love your voice, man. Great tutorial!
Thank you so much!
Great video Clifton!!! My fault is I'm not sure to understand the difference between using the Kadence theme and Kadence Blocks in building a website, and which could be pros and cons of the two options
Thank you Fabio! You'd actually want to us both. The Kadence Theme handles the external structure and framework of your website, while Kadence Blocks contributed to the deign and layout of your pages.
Tutorial is totally awesome! Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much!
hey great video, I just want to add that it will be good to show the final website at the beginning so that viewers will know and decided if they want to follow all the way to the end.
Thank you, Alex, I appreciate your feedback!
Well, I guess they don't have a choice if they want to understand Kadence to the full extent. It really doesn't matter, how the page looks, since it is just an example of how to use the theme, not how to design a page :)
Thank you!!! Your video is super! You helped me a lot to understand how to use the settings. I have a big like and constant subscription! You are great - you explain it very clearly and in detail.
Thank you, Viktor! Appreciate you watching and thanks for the Sub!
Great work Clifton. Is that a bullet proof you're wearing?!
Hahaha! Thank you Jay Jay! It looks like it doesn't it? Just a normal hoodie. 🙂
Thank you Clifton, there is always more to learn and this video gave me yet a few things I was don aware of, stay safe.
Thank you Byron! I am glad to hear it and appreciate you watching!
Clifton, Another TOP video Tutorial! Loving them ❤️ 😍 Thanks a lot!
My pleasure Carmelo! Thank you and more to come!
Very clear and helpful explanation, thank you very much
You are welcome! and Thank you for watching!
Great Video. What theme would you recommend for a blogging website? The only theme that is relevant to blogging is on the pro version.
Thank you Temitope! Check this free starter template for a blog: www.kadencewp.com/kadence-theme/starters/recipe-blog01/
This is an amazing tutorial. Thanks for going to all the effort.
You are very welcome! I appreciate you watching!
Hi Clifton, been going through your wonderful videos. On the archive page of my blogposts, is there any way to change the color of the page numbers and highlight color? Really appreciate your expertise here.
Hi Matthew! yes, while on the archive page access the customizer from the admin toolbar. Select the Blog Posts tab, then select the Archive Layout and finally switch to the design tab. On the design tab you can make changes to the Archive Layout colors. I hope that helps!
@@CliftonWP Thank you very much for getting back to me. There is no option on there to change the color of the page numbers or highlighted color. Any other suggestions?
Hi Clifton, I subscribe to alot of people who teach but you are patient and slow for an old granny like me LOL. I appreciate the time you take to really explain things as I have the aptitude, desire and a big WHY but I can't keep up with people who go so fast!! :) That being said I want to ask you this - I can't seem to get the copy and paste of the affiliate links right. I'm using free Kadence, and for instance I'm trying to populate a link from my hosting co - they say copy this code and it'll populate the image w the link. I can't make it work. I've had to copy and paste the image then put the hyperlink behind it, but if they change the code behind it then my image could be incorrect if it has a sale price or something on it. What am I missing? Maybe I don't understand how the embedded code works? Thank you!! Hoping you have a video for that :)
Hi Granny D! Thank you very much! It sounds like you are talking about an embeddable affiliate link with an image. You can past this in your website using the HTML block. I'd be happy to hop on a quick Zoom call to get a better understanding of what you are trying to do if you are able. Just send me an email to clifton@cliftonwp.com and we can set something up!
@@CliftonWP Hi and thank you! I just ran into this tonight as well "Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response" - starting doing this after upgrading my security...someone mentioned it had something to do with the G blocks? I'm dead in the water on editing until I figure this out - I'll email you, ty!
@@CliftonWP Hey! Just wanted to say thank you so much for your personal attention to help me, I resolved both issues and my front page is done!! (fireworks :)) LOL. I really appreciate your help, we don't always get replies from people we leave comments for - I've even emailed people on the forms on their websites....crickets. I know it's probably hard to respond to so many people, not sure I could do that, but I just wanted to say I appreciate you!
Hey @CliftonWP! Thanks for the video! Just a q. Have you tried Blocksy as well? What's your opinion comparing Kandence to Blocksy? keep it up!
Thank you Arena! I have given Blocksy a try and it is very robust and easy to use. I primarily use the Kadence theme because of the additional suite of tools it comes with and because they have their own blocks, Kadence Blocks for maximum compatibility.
A great and fantastic instructive tutorial. I'm only halfway through the course and I'm excited to see what happens next. Will definitely push Divi aside and go with Gutenberg and Kadence. Thanks for your time and effort.
Thank you very much!!! I appreciate you watching and more to come!
Sam here, only half way and looking forward to the rest.
Awesome Tutorial!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this video Clifton. Probably the best video I have seen on a Wordpress plugin. Well done. Keep it up. Do you use elementor or just the kadence functionality for your page builder?
Thank you very much Marlon! Yes, I previously used elementor depending on the project. Had elementor since the beginning. Kadence has taken over though as the favorite for our usage.
@@CliftonWP Would you recommend to replace Elementor with Kadence? I know there are some advanced this you can't do with kadence, but when it comes to the average website, do you think it is good enough to use on all sites?
This is a superb tutorial, thank you Clifton!
Thank you Rhealyn! I appreciate you watching!
Great video... thank you for this. Found it very helpful.
You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful!
learned a lot of things, great tutorial :)
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Thank you very much for the tutorial
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Thanks a lot. Really helpful
Thank you and you are very welcome!
Soothing voice Clifton.
Is there a way to create and design custom category pages with Kadence for my blog website? I have 3 categories with 4 subcategories for each, I want to use the category pages as a landing page to navigate to my subcategory archives...
Thank you Sounak, this is definitely possible using a combination of Kadence Pro and a custom post types plugin. Also perhaps the Query block in Gutenberg. I'll see if I can create a tutorial demonstrating this.
@@CliftonWP Thanks Clifton!
I'm pretty new to this ... a video from your side incorporating this would be helpful... On the internet I find only elementor
Thank you for the amazing video! So much help! One question tho...If I already have some content on my website, can I still go for a new starter template or am I risking of losing everything? :(
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. Yes, a new starter template is meant for empty sites so you do run the risk of overwriting your content. Thanks again!
@@CliftonWP Thanks for such a fast answer. Im looking for help online because im getting error 503 when I import the template. I decided to go for it and readjust my content afterward, but.... Do you know why that happens? I found a great one and wouldnt mind starting again. Pls advise me :( :(
@@estrella2302 Thank you! Error 503 is a server related communication issue. I recommend clearing your cache and trying again or if it persists, reach out to your web host and let them know what you are experiencing.
@@CliftonWP Thank you so much! 🙏
@@estrella2302 You are very welcome!!!
Great work, thank you
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Great video! please can you do a video how to make a woocomerce website from scratch with kadence blocks or other free gutenberg page builders?
Great video! Thank you! I'll be using your affiliate link :)
Thank you Alex!
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it! I appreciate you watching Chris!
Very informative Video
Thank you!
영상 잘봤습니다
혹시 디자인 라이브러리 이용 시 사이트 속도에 영향을 미치나요?
디자인 라이브러리 이용해서 블로그 포스트 작성 활용 후 미래에 테마 변경 + 엘리멘토 빌더로 변경한다면 문제가 생길 수도 있는지 궁금합니다.
Thank you for this tutorial. I just switched to kadence free and i like it a lot. But I want my post links to be bold letters, and in my previous theme, i added a css code to implement it. But I havent found any instructions with kadence. Can you please help me? Thank you so much.
Thank you Julai, you can add css in the Customizer under the Additional CSS tab.
Thank you very much for your tutorial i am very happy because i found your channel are think kadence blocks it is better than elmentor???
You are very welcome. Kadence Blocks and Elementor are great tools. That being said I have a strong preference to Kadence Blocks and highly recommend it. There are some features in Elementor that people may find useful, however I have found that I can do all that I need to and more with Kadence without the extra bloat that comes with page builders.
@@CliftonWP thank you soo much sır i am very happy because i found your channel
@@CR7-r2f2e You are very welcome!
Great video
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Great video and amazing instructions! Thank you. Can you tell me what the featured image size should be in Kadence? I cannot locate that anywhere.
Thank you Tom! I you mean for the Hero area, then you'll want it to be 1920px in width. For all other featured images, WordPress tends to resize those for you accordingly 150px thumbnails, 300px medium and 1024 Large.
@@CliftonWP I had one a couple more questions.
1) I am using the free Kadence theme and love it.
However, will this theme get regular updates to make sure it is compatible with future version of wordpress?
Does the update show in our wordpress admin so we can just click update and it does it automatically like all other themes I have used?
2) The same with the Kadence theme pro add-on. I am thinking about purchasing it through your link.
Will this get notification with updates in the wordpress admin where I can just click update to get the update?
3) What is the Kadence support like? Do they answer quickly?
@@tomphelps3174 My experience has been very positive with both the free version of Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks and The Pro Versions as well. Both the free and Pro versions get regular updates and improvements. In my opinion, Kadence is leading the pack. The support is fantastic. They are very prompt, responsive and they resolve issues quickly, and have always provided regular updates on where they are with resolutions of issues. As a pro user you also get to open support tickets that are focused on any issue you may be having. They have promptly resolved any issues I've encountered. There is also a community forum for Kadence within their Support arm. From what I have experienced I have full confidence in KadenceWP and their products. They are excellent.
@@CliftonWP Thank you for the help.
@@CliftonWP Thank you for the help!
Thanks!
Thank you so much Chris! I appreciate you!🙏
@@CliftonWP Ah, Clifton. My contribution is a pittance in comparison to the value you provide in your 'deep dive' videos. I'm a slow learner, and I'm very grateful for the methodical, in-depth way you teach. You're a class act. Thank you so much for your terrific work.
@@chrismcmorrow9738 Thank you so much Chris! I am very grateful for you. Thank you!
Hi👋 👋 👋
I have a question
I just started with wordpress, one of the most preferred page builder to me is Kadence. Now I have a website built with Gutentor and I need to edit some pages.
Can I use both Kadence and Gutentor on the same website altogether without breaking or slowing the website?
Hi Walaa! First congratulations and welcome to getting started with WordPress! Kadence is awesome and yes you can use gutentor and kadence on the same website. 🙂
@@CliftonWP Thanks a lot ❤️
Love your smile!
Thank you Akshay!🙂
Great tuto from the Barry White 2.0 of YT
LOL! Thank you so much! Love this comment! You are awesome!
