Gutenberg WordPress Tutorial – Beginners Guide

wonderful tutorial

Your tutorial was kind of incredibly useful. Thanks.😅

Except for the Kadence theme that looks fine, sober, well designed, could you stop promoting paying third party extension? I can't focus only on GutenBerg result…

Keep it up sir love from pakistan

God bless you

Excellent tutorial. quick, organized and super informative. Thanks!

Nice intro. Total noob question here, but what is the "Gutenberg for Beginners" text? It doesn't show up in either the page settings or the block settings.

Brilliant introduction – thanks. your videos are a great resource for any one just starting out in all things Full Site Editing (FSE), Block-Theming, TT2. 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!

Simple, clear, and quick. Overall great video – I'm really excited for your WORDPRESS series.Please, please, please do upload them frequently

Great overview. DO you have any insights or recommendtaions on Digital Asset Management as it relates to the Media Library? Does Stackable Design offer such a function?

Very useful video. Thanks!

Subscribed because you're a genuine older guy that has a tonne of experience. I'm just a little younger than you, and I've just started using WP's new FSE feature. I've got to develop some plugins that integrate with Gutenburg … but I know very little about Gutenburg and this video has helped me understand what it's about. Thanks buddy. Subbed.

Thank you for the tutorial. But I find Gutenberg terrible. The interface is confusing and everything is lumped together as if they just took a bunch of features and dumped it all on us to figure out.

The UI is God awful and I find that I can't get work done like I can with all of the other page builders on WordPress.

I'm already getting complaints from customers. They find Gutenberg confusing and way harder than Wix or Weebly. In fact, they already are driven away from WordPress because of their experience with Gutenberg.

Not only is the UI pretty bad, making simple edits such as spacing and font sizes just doesn't work. The <BR> tag doesn't work. Simple hitting enter to create a space doesn't work. It's a total fircken mess.

If I could decide about Gutenberg, I would honestly just scrap it. It's that bad.

Great video and very helpful as I'm getting a bit fed up with standard theme installs etc. I cannot see however if these Gutenberg blocks are mobile friendly or a button where you can see on PC, mobile and tablet. I also cannot see where each page has it's SEO options or adding anchors which is something a use a lot. These things I will try and find. Thanks again for your time.

This video was perfect for me, all killer no filler! Thanks

great tutorial, big help 🙂 thank you so much

thanks Paul, i always enjoy watching your videos, thoughtful, direct to the point, and productive results .. appreciated !

Thank you

Thanks so much!! I was just about to leave WordPress for something else. Your video brought me back. Well done!

👉👉👉 Muchas gracias, excelente tutorial. Muy claro y bien explicado. Saludos desde Santiago de Chile. 😃👌👍

You were better than most others I watched but there is still few things missing ie not emphasizing what your mousing is doing than what you are trying to achieve. it is not a problem to mention and emphasize each thing you click and actually mention them.

So next time the student sees that they remember but when you dont say but just click them and we realize that oh that button does this and that. that is why I watch thousands of videos and go do and realze I couldn't do many of the stuffs. because they are just clicking and designing and that is where their mind is on than who is listening and watch to note where all the stuffs and what they do. even mentioning each time you use them again.

That is excellent and talented teachers teach.
I know a few on Youtube other niches. they would teach these things and even child of 8 would get it perfectly.
No assumption is the key of greater teachers.

I jsut wanted to share that no intention of hate or anything like that. Just mu frustration with learning anything online.
Yet I teach and people have become pros just from my Youtube teaching music. because i make super clear and I pretend I am talking to children.
When a person doesn't know something they are like children and if you teach like that. You quadrule the views and extra ordinary comments. comment like. YOU ARE GOD SENT……. I OWE YOU A DRINK…… GOD BLESS YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY…..THERE IS NONE LIKE YOU IN THE WHOLE INTERNET….. ETC
Anyways I hope my comment add value and not intending to bring anyone down. its just feedback….these things most people wont say even though that is how they feel…
Cheers

Wow as well as you try to explain. I find it funny why the layout and the way these things are made to work is kind of strange and weird. okay people have gotten used to them. Why can't there a straight forward web builder that is just like typing in word, or like a simple photo editor. these things need spacial box with weird names just to be able to write a title or something.

I could become billionaire if I could get to build one like am saying. Because just take they are given and refuse to complain and hence all these.

I am trying to build a wall of videos. something as simple as that. But the videos stretch till the extreme edge of the after I preview, And not a single soul even mention this with all the videos I have watched so far. Just for something that simple. wow.
Thanks. But you also like most people. I wish you would be saying what you are clicking than what you are trying to create.
You just speak without emphasizing where and which button.

Like. this button does this now I am going to change the color. this button I will click will do that.
But a bad teacher leaves these things out because they forget that the student might not know those things and they need be emphasized.
Wow good teachers are very few on Youtube. like one in 10 thousand. But no problem.
Thanks

Some nice Gutenberg tips here, thanks for sharing! As far as reusable blocks, I tested that feature in the past and experienced problems where the blocks were just disappearing – and as you can imagine, that can be a nightmare – especially if the reusable blocks were a pricing table or something and they all just went missing all at once for no apparent reason. And that's exactly what happened in my case! Not sure what the issue was, but I never really trusted reusable blocks after that. And I'm not the only one who's experienced this issue, others have reported the issue too. Have you ever experienced this?? If so, is there a fix to it?

You are an excellent teacher.!! Do not get me wrong and your work is much appreciated. The comment was not directed to you at all. it is a generic comment. IS incredible the amount of 'things' ( Plug-ins, themes, page builders, gutenberg, SEO , SSL, etc, etc ) that we need to go thru' and is NOT really worth it. These companies are all competing for a share of the market and we pay the brunt of it. Plug-ins that do not work , etc,etc due to the constant changes and the list goes on and on.
Thanks very much for work dedicated work to your audience , with your brillinat tutorials. Nothing to do with you is the "industry", i am afraid.

I wonder when are all these companies going to STOP changing and competing AT ANY COST against each other. They are confusing the H!*#! out of us. They can't stop changing things around … As if we had nothing else to do but sit around and wait to be bombarded with more changes !!!. IS really pathetic. ! they should learn from Microsoft ( the changes/improvements are organised and released in a sequence that can be digested ).

I hope "Sharepoint" (with its own web interface) takes over all of these 'Web page builders./themes/plug-ins" and all of this ridiculous nonsense. I'm sure I speak for million of us that are fed with all of this nonsense !!!

Shame on you !

Super useful video! Thanks, Paul.

So if you wanted to avoid using a bunch of plugins to minimize bloat and have more overall control can you DIY create blocks with settings like the kadenze blocks? I"m trying to learn gutenburg but I've just never been a huge fan of using a ton of plugins due to cost and bloat primarily.

The file I downloaded but "local" will not install. Even though I downlaoded the Ubuntu version.
