Hi, I am Akanka, a web designer from Sri Lanka and also the founder of UX Alchemy. I created this class to make blogging easier, faster and more accessible, even if you are just starting out. If you have ever felt overwhelmed by WordPress or didn't know where to start, this class will give you the clarity and confidence you need. If you're ready to build a professional blog, the smart way using modern tools like WordPress and elemento pro, let's start building your blog together, see you inside the class. 2. Pros and cons of Elementor and WordPress: This class, we will mainly use two tools, WordPress and elemental pro. Let's take a look at what each tool does, their pros and cons. Also a few alternatives. You know exactly what you are working it. First up, we will use WordPress. WordPress is our website platform, the foundation that powers your site. It is one of the most popular platform in the world. Used by over 40% of websites. Let's talk about prose. It's open source and free. You get full control of your website from design to SO to performance. You can install plug ins to add almost any features you can think of. And it's beginner friendly, especially when you paired with a visual builder like elemento. Now, here are some cons. You will need to buy a domain and hosting to make you a site live. It requires regular updates and backups to keep things running smoothly. While it's flexible, setting it up can feel technical at first. Alternative to Wordpress, weeks and square space Earl in one website builders that are easier to start with, but they offer less control. Webflow give you more design freedom. Also, for simple website, framer is another best choice. The finally element element of pro is our page builder. The tool that lets you turn this Pt voluFgma design into a fully functional word website. Let's talk about pros. It's extremely beginner friendly no code needed, dragon room. You will get full design control over every part of your site, including mobile view. Elementp includes advanced widget like forms, sliders, prize interval, testimonios, and more. With the theme builder, you can design your site's entire structure, headers, footers, block templates, visual. Element of P is a paid plug in, so it's not free. Also, if you decide to swip to another builder later, your design won't transfer over, you will need to rebuild and even though it easy to use, you will still need to spend some time learning the interface and basic practices. Now let's talk about some alternatives. There are builders like Prix builder, Brave builder, DV oxygen. Not only that, we have Wordpress default Editor Gutenberg. In the next lesson, let's jump into design 3. Buy Hosting and a Domain Name: Hello, everyone. Now it's time to buy a domain and host in because we need the domain and host in to host our WordPress website. So first less pick domain. There is a website called taldls.com. In this website, you will see all the promotions and deals of the domain providers, and from here, you can buy a domain that select best Hostin and get cheaper domain. Here, you will see a filter. In here, I will search our domain name as web design custom, and here I have to click on verify you are not robot. Okay, here we have the available domains, and from this price filter, I will put it like $1 and let's see what type of domain that we have for $1. In here, we have web design custom dot S domain 4099. Name Jeep. So I will pick this one in the spaceship we can got dot XYC domain for dollar 0.98. So here I just click on Name Jeep and it will redirect to the name jib. And here I can search the domain name. So let's copy it from here and paste it. Then click on search. We don't need the.com. We need dots. So here we can see dot s, actually, we can add dot S. Okay. Now here we have it for dollar 2.98. I just click on add to card and it added to the card. Now I click on Checkout and here I can add the promo code. So I will go here and let's find out the promo code. This 99 special is the promo code. So I just copy it and paste it here, click on apply. Okay, now I have to log into Name Jeep account, actually I already have a name Jeep account. If you don't have one, you can click on Create free account and follow the step. In my case, I will click on login, and here I will add my username and password. Okay, I just logged into the Namechp account and here, I will add the promo code, copy it from here and paste it like this. Click on apply, and now we have the subtotal as 0.99, and I will unticke all of this stuff, so remove it. We don't need any of those stuff. So now I can click on Confirm order. Before I confirm the order, I will go namjb.com, and let's refresh it. Then we can select host by clicking this host and click on shared Hostin. And in Name GP, we can get this IstllA and I Stellar plus package to design and develop our WordPress website. In the IstllAPackage, we will have email feature and we will have GB, SSD, and three website. In the ItllarPlus we will have unlimited domain. However, there is a limit, even though it's a unlimited, it's never unlimited. I think it's just a marketing gimmick. However, in here, we have unlimited mailbox and we have this autobup feature. This autobup feature is very powerful, and my recommendation is pick this ItellarPlus account if you are going to use the name cheap server for you website. So currently there is a Black Friday deal. That's why the amount is this much low. However, still, Namecheap is the cheapest and affordable hosting provider out there. And here we can set the billing as monthly or yearly. If we set it as monthly, it will be cost this much. However, I set it yearly, and now we can get it for 22.80 $0.08 and we can renew it after year for $44.88. So now I click on Get start and here we set it as new domain and click on already in the card and our total cost will be 23.80 $0.07. Now I can click on. Add to Cart and here I can click on confirm order. However, I already have tears hosting, so I don't need this hosting, so I just click this clause icon and I only need domain. Also, you can get domain from those other providers. And if we go to this XYZ domain on spaceship, we can search the domain name here and continue the work. But for this, I will choose the name GIP, and now I click on Confirm Order and continue the purchasing also very important thing before you purchase the domain, always check the text of the domain. If you purchase domain with wrong text or wrong characters, it will not represent your brand. So always recheck the text of your domain. If you search domain like custom web design, you will see that this domain is already taken, which means we can get this domain and instead of getting that domain, we can get this type of domain. So when we get a domain, we always have to check the domain is top level domain or to do that, you can just search on Google like if we are going to B dot XYZ domain, we can search is XYZ domain top level domain. Then it say XYZ is a top level domain name, and in that way, you can find out west domain name, but most familiar domain names are.com dot. Dot org. If it's, it's dot co dot k, like this. Getting top level domain is really important because Google and other search engine will rank top level domains easier than just ranking some low level domains. So I will see you after I complete the domain purchase process. Okay. Now here we have the domain name, and now we have to change the DNS to change the DNS, I will click on Manage hanging DNS means we have to configure the domain with the server. And here we have name chief basic DNS. I will change it to name chief web hosting DNS. Then I will click on this savy and it changes. Okay. Now what we have to do is go to the C panel. I go to host in list, and in the hosting list here is our host in. So here we go to C panel, can I just click on it and it will redirect to the C panel. So it doesn't matter what type of domain or hosting provider that you choose. A C panels have the same functionality. So I will scroll down and here we have domain section, so I just click on it and now from here, I click on, create a new domain. Here we have is domain set, just click on, create a new domain, and here let's add the domain name, copy the domain name and paste it like this. Then in the hosting server, it will create new fold call custom website design dot. Okay, so we will have a subdomain. So now I click on submit button. Okay, the domain is successfully created. So if I click here and go to the website, it will look like this. In name G, we have presl certificate for one near. So when we click here, we can see connection Cece, which means SSL certificate is configured correctly and also our URL is TTPs Okay. So now, Earl wood, if you didn't get this page, just wait for five to 10 minutes and this page will appear. Okay. Now what we have to do is install WordPress in the domain. 4. How to Install WordPress from Scratch: Hello, everyone. It's time to install WordPress. I go to the C panel and in C panel, we have soft tacular app installer. I just click on it and here we have Wordpress and from here, I just click on Install. And now here I have to select the details. First, I will select TTPs and without this www dot part, so just TTPs as the protocol, then I will select the domain name. So here is our domain name and here I will choose the latest version of the Wordpress and I will not add any directories. I will just install WordPress in the root folder, and here we can change the sit name and site description. But let's change those tu while we design the website. For now, let's keep those stuff as it is. And here we have to add admin username and admin password. I will add those details also will add a password. Make sure to remember your user name and password because you should have to use this username and password to log in to the Wordpress and from here, I will change this admin email to working email because currently this email is not working. Okay, scroll down and here I don't need this any extra plugins. Remove the extra plugins and now click on this Install button and it will start to install the wordpress on website. Okay, Wordpress successfully installed and from here, I can click this URL and go to the WordPress website in the administrative URL, I can go to Wordpress like this. From here, I just click on No, I don't want to try to try an ET setup process, and here is our WordPress dashboard. To access WordPress dashboard, we can just at our website URL and then add WP Admin at end of website URL. Now here is our website look like. In the next lesson, we will clear up the Wordpress and remove unnecessary stuff from our WordPress website. 5. Installing and Activating Elementor Pro: Hello, everyone. We are going to use Elementor Pro to design our custom website because Elementor is best WordPress website builder out there. Elementor has a pre version, but it has limited features. Let's check Elementor plans. To come to this page, click the ink on resources section or description, and you will redirect to this page. Then here we have a pricing plans. The recommended pricing plan is Advanced solo website builder. With this pricing plan, we can get 118 pre and pro budget, and it has 86 projets, but with the essential plan, we only have 57 projets. As if we go to market in ecommerce section with Advanced solo we will get pop up Builder. This is a feature that we are going to use, and in the essential brand, we don't get much features. However, if you are going to design more than one website, you can go to Advanced plan. Or if you are a freelancer who build website for your clients, you can purchase the expert version. By choosing this type of plan, we will able replace lot of plug ins and add ons and it will help to increase the page load in speed and optimize overall website. So let's start to install Elementor. To do that, I will go to the dashboard of our website, and here I will go to plugins and click on AdneU. First, we have to install the element pre plugin. So from here, I will search Elementor. Then here we have elemento website builder plugin. It's developed by elemento.com, and it's compatible with our Wordpress version. So I click on Install Now. Okay. Then I click on Activate. All right. Now I click on Escape and I will skip those step or I will click on this Close button because we are going set up Elementor Pro using the Elementor website. Again, click on the URL of the resources section and you will redirect to this page, and from here, I will click on By now button on Advance solo website, Builder plan. And here I will have to fill the details. Then I will click on pay now and make the payment. After you successfully registered, you can download it from here by clicking this Download button, or you can go to Elementor dashboard by add ind elemento.com. And when you do that, you will see this type of download icon, and then you will see element plug into Download, click on then you download will start and now you have the element of plugin. Now let's set up with our website to do that. I will go to the WordPress dashboard and go to plugins and click on Install Plugin. Then I click on add new plugin. Then I click on this upload plug in button. Then I click on to pile, and here we have the downloaded element pro plug in. So it's a C file. So I just select it and click on Open. Then I click on Install now. It will take a few minutes to install. Okay. Then you will see this window. So from here, just click on this activate plug in button. And it will successfully install. So here is the install plug in. Now I click on connect and activate. Then I will come to this type of page. So here I click on activate my license. Okay, elemento pro successfully activated, and now we can use the features of the elemento pro. 6. Cleaning Up the WordPress Dashboard: Hello, everyone. On your WordPress dashboard, you will see this type of item. To remove all of them, you can just click on these Estren options and here you can untick the Istab that you don't like to see. Like this, when you untick them, you will no longer see those tab. A on plugins, I will go to Install Plugin. It automatically install light speed cache on website. Here is a light speed cache plugin that installed in my server. I will click on Deactivate because for now we don't need any cache plugin. I will delete it. Okay, perfect. Let's start to design the website in next lesson. 7. Elementor Editor Walkthrough: Hello, everyone. Let's be familiar with elemento editor. So let's create a page. Now I am on our WordPress website dashboard, and from here, I will hover over the pages and click on Add New page. And here I will add title as Taste page. So here we got a pop up of templates. I will close it, and here I will add taste page. Then what I'm going to do is click this edit with elemento button. When I click it, I will redirect to the elemento editor. I will skip this for now, and here is our elemento editor, and first, I will click on page set in, and from the page set in, I will change page layout to elemento canvas. Like this, when we do that, it will give us a blank page that we can use to design our custom website. In our left hand side, we can see the widgets that we can use with elemento pro. If you have a element of pre version, you will not able to access all of those widgets. You can just drag and drop any of those elements into the canvas. Canvas is this blank area. For now, I will close this structure tab and if we check on this top bar, we can see in the left side, we have side set in icon, so let's click on I click on it, we will go to the side setting. In this side setting, we can change or set up our core website options as an example, if I click on layout and currently the content width of desktop size is 1140. If we change this to 101,060, it will affect the whole website, but I will keep it as default. And if we want to add padding to the top of the website, we can just unlink this value by clicking this chain icon, and here we can set it like 60 and then let's click on save and now I click on back to Editor and then let's just drag and drop a headline like this and the headline will drop like here because we have 60 of top padding. So if we again go to sit setting and go to layouts and make this as zero, the heading will be zero. Now I will click on Save changes and go back to the editor. Then by clicking here, we can see the structure of the website. Currently, we have only one headline. Then here we can add nodes, just click on nodes and then if you want to add the node or thought about a section, you can just select the section. In this case, I will select this headline and here I can type node lie. This is for testing. Then I can click on leave a node and that node will appear here. Think if you work with the team and you have few designers who work on pages. By adding this type of nodes and when your co designers will log into the website and check the page and they can read those nodes and understand the design very well. Let's close this one. Now here we have the page name. The page name is test page and currently it's in draft. If we click on this published button, it will available on website, but currently it's draft mode. Then we have this icon, this G icon for access this page setting. If you click here and change the details, it will affect the entire site. But if you click here and change those details, it will only affect the page setting like I did before by changing the page layout. Then we have three views. First one is desktop, second one is tablet and third one is mobile. As an example, if we want to change this text size on mobile, we can just click on the text and go to Etyle then change the font size. Actually, I have to click this text like this and go to Etyle and now I can change its size like this. When we do that, it will only affect on the mobile. If we go to desktop version, the text will be same and it's same on the tablet version. Mobile version, it changes to the size that we already set. Now I go back to the desktop version. Now the most important part is this weird section. As I told before, we can use these pro features on the element of pro and on the pre version, this stuff will be low let's remove this text and let's create the section. The first is thee, we have to add the container. That's the proper way to create the website. I will click on the container and it will add like this from this container, we can adjust in details. For now, let's keep it as default and then I will add other items to do that, I will click here and then let's add the headline and also click this plus icon and let's add text editor like this. Now I click on the container and currently it direction is vertical. It has a column, but if we click on horizontal, it will change to the horizontal. There are lot of options that we can use to design a perfect website. And let's see if we want to change this text. We can click on this pencil icon or click here and click on Edit, and then we can change the text from here. I will change it like yellow Word. And then I click on style and I will change this text color to for now, let's change it to black, and I will change this type for Grappy pins. Pins is my favorite font, and let's change its size to 60. Let's make it like 60. Then I will change it to medium. Maybe normal will look better like this, and we can change the line height like this and set alignment to lay. Okay. Now for now, let's remove this text editor. I just click here, and then I can just press Delete button or I can just right click and click on Delete, like this. Now again, I click on the container and let's add this Mint heights 600 and the container height become 600. Then I click on this text and let's make a line center so click here and let's make this justify content as center. And let's make this as middle to do that. I click on this center like this. And now here we have two lines. So let's fix it. To fix it, I will go to the Advance, and in advance, we have said this width as custom width, so we can click on default and it will make the full width. So there are a lot of stuff to do, and on future lessons, we will use all of those stuff and you will be able to create awesome sign. Okay. Now here our simple hello world takes and now if I click this height panel icon, we can see the real view and also we can click here to get it back. And if I click this arrow icon and click view pages, it didn't update. Let's click on publish and let's try to view it again. Okay, I view this. If we want another section, we can just click here and click at the container to here like this or we can click this plus icon and click on Plex Box and select the structure. If I want to add two column grid, we can just click here and now we have column. So we can do it by manually. As an example, let's get this container, and I click here. Then let's go to Estyle and let me add the background type. So click this classic and let's change color to this blue color and click on Layout. From Layout, I will set Mint heights let's make it like 300. Okay. And this structure is a bit of headache, so to fix it, I will just put it like this and I just drag it to left site and it will become a section so we can easily check the structure of our website. And from here, we need to add this type of two columns to do that. I will click this plus icon and just add a container like this. Now we have the container inside container so we right click and click on Dublgate then what I can do is I can click on the main container and change it direction to or horizontal and it just become two container. And here we have a gap to fix this gap, I will change this gap to zero, and now we don't have gap. So now I click here to select this container. Go to tyle, click Classic and change the color. Let's change it to screen color and let's change this totyle clicks. Let's change to this text color. Elemental Editor is a really simple editor to use. So I just click on publish or we can just click on this preview icon to preview changes. We can click this icon or preview icon and check Elger changes on the real and in future lessons, we will go deep in the elemental editor and learn much more. 8. Theme Installation and Blog Post Setup: Now let's install the theme. I will go to here appearance and click on Team. On Tens, click on at them. Here, I will search Hello Elementor. We got the theme. We can click on Install and click on Activate right now we have elemento pro and Halo element. Theme. Now what we have to do is we have to create few blog post. On post, click on all posts and here currently I have three blog posts, but I need more blog post because if I don't have any blog post, we will not able to get the quality preview of our website, which means we will have a lot of Ipaces. Let's create a few dummy posts and after we completed the design, we can let all of them and click here and click on models and trash those posts and delete them permanently. I will go to ChaGPT and at Dover prompt, here I will say you are a finance advisor and I want you to generate 12 log posts and I will remove. Here is more information part and here I will say they should have title 500 to 600 words category should be personal finance, tax, debt management. Investments. I will remove this, give me three choices part and here I will say also give me small desscrption for each categories for each category and press Enter, here we have category descriptions, and here we have blogposts. The block posts are really small, which means is not good, I have to say you should Generals and E host should have at least 700 plus words. Let's see. Yes, please. Here I generate the log post.

Then the text color will be text, normal color, and on HA actually, we don't need a divider. If you like the divider, you it like this. Then on edge over, the text color will be this green color. So when I over, it will look green and we don't need a pointer. So on active color, the text color will be secondary. And on content here as the pointer, check it as none. If you like pointer like this, you can keep it, but I don't like just click on none, and alignment will be start. Okay, now all look good and go to E style.

And on edge over, text color will be green color, and the background color will be. Let's make it primary color and let's see it work. Yeah, it works perfectly. And on active, let's make this. Okay. Now here we don't need a border. And here, let's add horizontal patterns, let's make it like 30, and let's see actually should be vertical pattern. Make vertical pattern as 30, 30 is too much. Maybe let's at 20 and the horizontal pattern will also 20. Now it looks like this, and here we can change the distance from menu. Let's make it 2020 is too much. Let's make it like nine is pretty good. Toggle button. This toggle but we need to adjust the toggle button details on the mobile view because currently the mobile wave look like this. But in future lessons, we will fix the mobile view, and for now, let's keep this like this and let's make it as center. Just click on this main container and align items will be center and also click here. Now I will sec this container and on line items, click on Center to make this center like this and it's looking pretty good. Also, let's fix the tablet and mobile versions too at the same time.

And the background color will be this primary color or the text color, and the Hamburger menu on color will be background color. Okay. Now we have an issue. When we open this menu, it opened with rest of the container. To fix it, I will click on the word Rsmo and on here on the content, I will make this as full width.

What we can do is we can click on the container and and container change direction to column vertical, and now if I check it, it will look like this, and now it look really good. Also here, we can make this site logo content to middle by adding to the hundred percent like this. And if you check these properties, you will see this tablet protrit icon. So it means when we make changes while we are on the tablet version, those changes will only affect the tablet version. If we go to the desktop version, the design is same, and here you can see the desktop icon. And if you click on mobile, you can here see the mobile. Okay, now let's work on the mobile version. Okay, let's go to mobile and here's look, I just click on the main container and let's set the direction to pro horizontal. Okay. Now, here we go. This menu item should be on the right side to do that. What I can do is go to sit logo.

Okay. Let's make it 270 Nice. Now, we had this issue before, which is the side by is not showing correctly and I found the reason for that issue. If we go to the container on container, we add margin right and left as 15. But what we have to do is add it on the padding. Let's make margin left right as zero. When we do that, the issue was fixed and here I will add top six and padding will be 15. And also left padding will be 15. Again, we have to decrease this size to a little bit more like this. Actually, if we go to not here in container, let's go to layout. On layout, let's make gap as zero. And now on side logo, we can add it like this, not 25245. Okay. Now it look pretty good. And if we go to the tablet version, we can do the same thing on the tablet version. So just click here and make this as direction row horizontal. And let's go to advance, remove this margin right and margin left. Then let's add it right here. Actually, we have to click on Link value together to check it 615615. All right. We didn't add the margin right and left on desktop version, so we can put it like this and here we go, here is our menu and logo, and this is the header. Now click on Publish and then here we have At condition. So I will click on at Condition, and I will make it include entire site. Then I click on Save and clause Ar now let's go to our homepage. Let's go back Wagers page. And here we go. Here is the homepage. Let's check Okay, now it's look like this, and this is the footer part.

In next lesson, we have to design the home page. 11. Designing the Hero Section: Everyone. Now let's design the homepage. Currently, if we go to the homepage, it will look like this, and I want to set the homepage page. In our case, let's go to the dashboard and pages 0 page, and we need to set up this page. So to do that, what I can do is go to press dashboard, and let's go to set in and Tding. I will open it in new window, and here on your homepage displays, click on a static page and set this homepage as our well twice homepage that we created. Now I click on Save changes. Now if I visit the website, it will look like this because our homepage is empty. Now I click on it with elemento all right. Now it's time to design the home page. Okay, let's start the design. First of all, we have to create the hero section. So my plan is to create a post slider. So this slider will have around three post, probably most recent three posts. Let's do it. First, I click on this plus icon Xbox and direction will be column. Okay, now here I will go to Advance and remove all the padding and margins all right. Now I will click on this ad element. So I element of Pro, we have loop carousel. Using this loop carousel, we can create sliders with dynamic content. So post is a dynamic content, which means we can add post using our dashboard in other term. In other term, WordPress is a CMS content management system. So let's use this feature to create our post grid. To do that, I will just rag and rob this loop carousel inside the container. Okay. Now here, I can select the template type. In our case, it should be posts. If you create different force types using plug in advanced custom fields, all of those items will be load here. In our case, we have post, and then here we can set the query before we set the query. Let's create a template. So I click on Create Template and click Save here to save this design. Okay. Now here, what I'm going to do is I click on this plus icon and Plex box, the direction will be column. Okay, then as I did before, I remove all the unnecessary E stuff and click on add element. And here we have pose title, post excerpt, feature Dimag, post content, post info. What we need to add is background. To add the background, I will add forced feature Dimage. What I can do is I select this container and go to Estyle click on Classic and here, I can use this dynamic tags feature, click on it, and here we have dynamic tags. In our case, I need feature Dimage. Just click on feature Dimage. The feature Dimage shows like this. Before we go further, I will click on this loop item set in and here I will change this title to pause slider template. Then I will publish this. Now I click on Save and back and we are back to our homepage, and here what we have to do is select the loop garsel and now here we have to add the number of slides. I need three slides. Sit on display will be one and sit on Scroll will be also one. Now I click on it template, and here we go, our template changes like this. Now what I can do is I can click on the container and let's add Might. Let's add the height as 700 like this. Now let's go to Es tiles on E diles. The position will be center center, and attachment will be default, repeat no repeat, display size, let's make it cover like this. Then we can add scroll effect, but I will not add it, and here we can add mouse effect. I'm not doing it. What I'm going to do is add in a background overlay, click here, click normal, and the background type will be classic and the color will be our primary color. Or it. Let's make it background color, and let's increase the opacity like five surely I will not add any background color. Now what I want to do is add pose title and little bit description or little bit info about the post like excerpt and here a button called Read Me. Let's do it. To do that, what we can do is click on add element and first, let's add post title. Okay, I not allow me to dit. So what I can do is I can publish this and click on Edit page. Okay. Now again, click on Edit template. All right. Now I can add it's like a glitch. So just add the post title and the post title is here. I want to put it here. Before we do that, let's just create the design. Then I want post excerpt. Let's add like this. Then what I want is a button. Let's at the button like this. Okay. Now this text is not showing correctly. So what we can do is we can add the background color to this text. So to do that, I have to create a new container. Let's dragon rope a container like this. And again, let's remove all the unnecessary stuff, and on daction let's make it column vertical, and I will put it right here, then I add all of the pause title and the post excerpt and the button inside this container. Actually, let's make it like this. Okay. Now I will select the container and go to Estyle, click on background type, and let's change the background color. Primary color like this. Okay, pretty good. Now, let's edit with the title. Select the post title, go to East tile. Alignment will be left, and typography will be header like this. Then the text color will be background text color. Nice. Now we have to add the excerpt. So here I will set the length as ten. Let's check. What about let's click on apply to post content. Okay, now it's here ten is not good. Let's make it like 225. Okay, 25 is much better. And let's go to Etyle alignment, alignment left, and typography will be text. Then text color will be background color. And now it's look like this, and now what I want to do is make this button better. I will click on the button and the button text will be read more. So we read more like this. And if you want, you can add dynamic tags, but I'm not going to do it. And for the link, we can add dynamic tag. Click on dynamic tag, and here we can add the post URL. If you have no idea about dynamic tags and uv garausel or if you want to go in depth, I already have a full course about elemento pro and you can check it or just add your comment on the Q&A section, I will create separate lesson about dynamic tags, lobe carser and grade about those stuff. Okay. Now let's go to Estes on Es dies position will be left, time for gap will be button. Did you remember that we set all of those stuff on the side setting and text color will be let's make background color, and the color will be secondary color. Did you see what I did? Here the text color, global color code there's background and the background color is this green color. Border radius, it'll be zero and let's make padding as. Let's make top 22, right, 30, bottom, 22, left 30 like this, it's a bit bigger though. Let's make this as 20 to 20 now it is much better, maybe 25. Yeah. 25 looks much better. And in here, let's the edge over design, so click on it and click on takes color to primary color, and the background type will be or the background color will be changed to white color like this. See? Also, you can add transaction like how animation, like this. Let's grow, see? Yep. And now next, what I want to do is I want to add this below here and make this much make this smaller. To do that, I select the subcontainer that we created, and let's go to advance and but let's add padding. So click here and let's add padding as 20 to all of those sides and alignment start. And here I can change the let's change the width to 60. No 60 is not good. Maybe 90 will work. Yeah, 90 is pretty good. Then I have to go to main container on main container. I also have to add the pad. Let's said it as 20. And now let's go to layout. And here I can set the justify content as end and align item will be start. Okay, did you see now it's much better. And also what we can do is we can click on this second container or the background container, and on here, if I click here and we can just decrease it opacity, let's make it like this. Okay, now it's looking pretty good and also on our excerpt, we can add text after the end of this paragraph. What we can do is we can go to Advance and on after. Let's add three dot like this. And on button, this three dot is not looking good, so I will just remove it. So when someone clicks on this button, that person will redirect to this page or this post. Also, let's click on Link option and change it in change it to open in New Window. Okay, now it's looking pretty good. Okay, now what I can do is click on publish and click on Save and B. And let's see here we go. Here is the design. And now let's just the design. First of all, let's set up the query. So click on the Loop carousel and go to Query. The query source will be pause. And here, if we want, we can add terms of author, include or exclude, but I'm not going to do it any. So date will be all an order by here, this should be DESC descending, which means latest post will be show first and oldest post will be show last. Okay. Now, on setting, we can change the EPL speed. And when we edge over, the sider will be push and we can change the direction, or if we have more than one sider, we can add of set slides, and in our case, we don't need any of them, and I will remove the navigation because we don't need it. And also, I will remove the pagination. Okay. Now the main thing that I am concerned of this design is not fully cover the layout and it's pretty ugly. It looked like old, so what we can do is we can click on the container, and here the content width will be full with like this. Now it's look good. Okay? Okay, now it look much better, and also what I need is, increase the Min night. Let's try to do it here. No, it's not going from here. So I will click on Edit template, seven leave and here, click on the container, and let's change this Min Night to like VH and pH 200. Means this will show on the entire home page. But the issue is, I forget we already have this header. So what I can do is I can make this Min heights 80. Yeah, it will work and click on Save. Then click on here to edit the header. And now I'm on the header, just click on the header container and set Mnhight to VH to 20. OMG is big, but let's see it should be perfect. Let's click on here to edit the page. Yeah, it's bigger than I expected. So surely this should be 80, not pixel VH ET, publish, let's see. Here, let's make it like ten. Ten will be work, save it. Let's go here, actually select this container and add this as 90 and save it. Actually, I added it for rome place, so I have to edit in the homepage section, not inside this template, so I will go to Edit templates and here, here, I select the container and change this to. Let's change it like this and click change it to Hundren and click on Publish. Let's see. Then let's go back to our homepage, click here. Click like this. Okay, now it's LF 12. Designing the Featured Posts Section: Okay. Now let's create featured post section. To do that, I will go here and click on plus icon, then Flexbox and the Pex Box direction will be column. Then on Advance, I will remove all the margins and patins. Then I click on an element, and here I will search posts. Here we get post elements, so I will just put it like this nine. Now from here, we can change the skin. I select this cardkin and three columns will be work and the post per page will be six, which means six or post will show like this. Now the image resolution is looking good and image ratio is also good on this number, then we have to check about the title. Here, we need to show the title and the title tag will be H three. Then on exerp I will add exert length as they added like 15. I think it didn't update. Yes, it's not updating. Maybe let's remove EAP, click on this show button to hide it. Now it's like this and also I will remove the read more button and we don't need date or comments count, and I will make open new window. Then this badge will be okay we don't need to show the Avatar two. Now it will look like this. But if you really need exerpt, you can show it and make exp length like five and let's see it on the real views on real view, it show correctly, so we have to make this exp length like 50. Now if we check it, here we go, we have it size as 50. Now let's go to query on query. The source is posts and date will be all, then order B will be random, which means it will randomly at posts for this section or we can order them by command counts or last modified or using menu order, but I will make it random. Then on pagination, we don't need a pagination. What we can do is we can go to the style tab on Style tab, let's make this column gap as 20. The row gap also will be 20 alignment left, and the card background color will be this background color, and let's not change the border color. I will make border radius as zero and here we have box shadow, make it open, and we will have this box shadow. And on image, I will keep the default image. Then let's go to content. On content, the title color will be primary and the typography will be subheader, but we have to change the details. Here, I will make it like 21, then the bolt will be medium. Medium, no, not medium. Maybe semibold will work. Yeah, Semibold is good, and also here, let's make it 25. Letter spacing, let's make it as default. Maybe let's make this line height as 30. Now, 28 will be work. Okay. Now we can adjust the spacing, so I will add six and we don't have any meta details here. So what we can do is we can go to Except on excerpt, the color will be text color and also here we can make this text color as the color of the title, but let's keep it as primary and then the typography will be text. This typography is too close, as I remember, I already change it, but let's see before we do that, let's add some space into bottom line 20. And for typographic click context, click on this manage global font and click Context and let's make this line as. Let's add it like 26 and save changes back to editor Okay, now it's pretty good, but still it's too close. So again, let's go here and click here, click on Set and text, let's make this as 30. Now it's much better. Now, if we want, we can add the read more. Actually, let's add the read. Click here, and here we go. And let's go to Estyle on Etyle content under Content, here we have read more. I will make color as secondary color and set the button typography, but here we have to reduce it font size. Let's make it like 16. And here's change this space into like six. And here, there's add space in like 20. Okay, now it's looking pretty good. Okay, now all looking good. So what I can do is just click on publish, see the changes. Okay, now it will look like this. Also, we have to here at the title. So let's do that. Also here, we don't have a featured image, and the space between the title and this image is too big, so let's fix it. Let's go here, and we can change this space into, like, let's make it like three. And here we can change the badge details. Here we can change ground color like this and text color will be actually the background text color will work like this. Okay, now publish it. And here we go. Now here is the design and it's looking pretty good. So let's add the title to add the title, I will click here and let's add the header. So the header, M tag will be H two. Let's add it like our lats insights and go to set in, make it a line lay typography will be header and also I will duplicate this, then the ML tag will be P and's at this don't miss a thing. Read our most recent and popular articles, and let's make it as text. And then I will click on this post section, and let's at margin drops two. Now it has more spacing. Publish and here we go. Now it will look like this and I will click this Read Me button on the depth Snowball was depth Avalanche. Click on the Edit post and click Concept featured image. Let's add this featured image like this and click concept. Okay. Now let's move on to the next step. 13. Designing the Category Section: Okay, now let's create a section to show all the categories. So first, I will click on this plus icon and let's add flexbox, direction column type, container, then on advance remove all the margin and padding. Then here I will add margin as one to 20. The space like this, then let's add header and heada text will be explore your financial journey and also I will duplicate it and add the subheadline like this, then make it paragraph. Now I will put this center. Click on the headline, style, click on typography and select subheader type here, make it center and also let's make this center and the text like this. Now here we have to add categories. So let's go to our website and on posts, here we have categories, and here we have four categories. What we can do is we can use icon box. So first of all, let's add element and let's add the container inside this main container. Then let's remove all the paddings and margins, and then let's go to layout and the layout direction should be row. Next I will click on Add element and search icon Box, here we go, here we have the icon box, and let's add the category details first I copy the category name and paste it on title, and then let's copy the category description, past the description like this. Then I will also click on the view and click on copy address and add the link address there and click on opening New Window. Now we have to change the design to do that. Let's go to EstilsOEts if we want, we can put the icon like this and make this left and right to do that, I will click here and vertical alignment like this alignment will be left and the icon spacing, let's make it as 15 and also for the content spacing, let's make it like 15 15 is too much, but it's okay. Now, let's change the icon. Let's go to icon and actually on content, I have to change the icon from here. Actually, what I can do is I can copy all the categories like this and then let's go to hag BT and let's paste this and let's remove those items like this. Then I will say, give me one awesome icon for each let's see, here we go. Let's copy this one, paste it. You have to remove this lines. Actually, there is no icon called handhold in dollars. Give me free phone so icons. Let's see. Let's say there is more. Yeah, let's copy the university and paste it. Okay, insert it. And now let's go to E style on E style, Let's change icon color to secondary color. And the size is okay. Then on content, let's change typography to button. Title typography is button, and the normal color is text color. Go color will be this green color like this. Then description tiroF will be text and the color will be text color. Okay. Now why we write and click onto bligate and it will duplicate like this. Then what I have to do is change those content. Let's go categories, copy investments, let's not select investments, investment. Like this, then let's copy this text. There's the text, right click copy link address, paste it and chart. Icon chart. Here we go, then I can just click on the container and right click, then duplicate. It will duplicate like this. Then let's add the details again, add it like this. Let's add the wallet. Always get the help of AI when you design a website. Let's copy in noise part and let's put it here noise and come here tax. Tanks. Copy it, paste it here. And also, I have to paste the URL. I think I forget to paste the URL on personal finance. It's right click copy link address, paste it like this. Okay. Now here we go. Here we have all four items, but we have a lot of issues. Let's fix them one by one first. I want to make this size as 50%, so let's go to Advance and on me click on custom and 50. Then also click here and go to Advance and custom 50 like this. Then I will we click copy, then we click paste style, paste the style. Now also we got an issue, which is we don't have enough spacing. So what we can do is we can create a separate container. Put that container here, then let's remove those stuff and I will put this container inside that container. And also, this one will be inside this main container that we created, and on layout here, I can set the row and column. Let's make it like 40 and 40 so I don't need to add 40 to column. And now here will look like this and let's make it 60. And then I will click on one of these icon box and let's go to Itis and let's go to advance on Advance, let's go to border and make it solid. Actually, we don't need a border, but what we need is box shadow. Let's add a box shadow like this, and I'm not going to change the box shadow details, and on layout, let's change padding to six, maybe yeah, 15 will be work and then now rightly copy, paste this style, paste this style, also here, paste style. Actually, what we can use is grid, not this container, and if we use the grid, it will automatically adjust according to the grid. Let's go to here and let's add the grid. Let's add the grid like this and the grid will be two columns and those will be also to the gap is 40 is too much. Let's make Gaps 20. Then I will add those box to the grid. We can just add it and put it here and also from here, make it default size and add it here, right click copy, press the style. When we do this, we can get the design that has same size of the background. Let's go here and kill the fault. Stated like this. And yes, then let's remove this whole container. And now it has exactly same size in each item. Also, for this box shadow, let's go to border. And here I will change this to, like, no, let's keep like this and spread will be three and blur will be 22. Let's make it blur as ten and p will be one. We click copy Patty, ft style, pastyle. All right. Now we have this section fully developed. Also, if we want, we can add margin of as 60 like this. 60 is too much. Maybe 30 will be the size. Now, let's check it on the design. So if someone click on this category, it will go to the category page and actually we have to edit the category page, which we will do it in future lessons. 14. How to Create a Subscriber Form Section: Now let's create a subscriber form. To do that first, let's create the container. Like this, then we have to go to advance link the values, then here one, 20 will be top margin. Then I will have to add the header to do that, let's go to elements on elements, drag and drop the headline, and I will add this as the headline text. Let's go to style on Etyle alignment will be center the typography will be subheader. Now I will just duplicate this subheader, main header and make a subheader. Let's go to Estyle on Estyle change it to text, and then I will add the text as this and you can find all of this content on the resources section. Now I have to add the subscriber form. What we can use is elemental form. I will form here. Here we have the form. I will just drag and drop it like this. Then let's go to advance and let's add top margins to entry. Now we have space. We also did it here, if you remember, see what? Now let's see what type of fields that we need. On subscriber form, we need email and we don't need message field, we need email field. Also, if you want, you can keep the name, but I will remove the name and only keep the email and button. Also here as the form name, I will set it as subscribe. Okay. Now on label, I will hide the label. Then, we have the button for the button text, I will set subscribe like this. Okay. Now I want to make this in line, which means text area or the text field and the button will be in the same line. To do that, I will click on the email field, and here as the column width, I will make it as 75. Okay, now you see with this change and also I go to buttons on buttons, the column width will be 25. Okay. The text field is 75% and the button is 25%. That's how we can create the online form. Okay, let's make this design better. First, I will go to Estyle on Etyle as the column gap. Let's make it as 15, and we don't need to worry about row gap. Let's add it as 15 for now, and we don't need to worry about label HDML field, and then let's go to field. In field, we can add the text color, so I will add the text color as text, and let's add typography as text, then the background color is white and let's make the border color as bit gray like this, let's make the border radius as zero because we have to follow the buttons and other card designs, we have to keep the uniqueness of the website. Then all good here and on button position will be esh and alignment center. Then the typography, let's make it as button and border type. None, then the background color will be this secondary color, and the text color will be white color, and we don't need a border color, and we don't have any previous or next button, and the board radius will be zero and text padding will be like 14 14 will work because we have to match the text field and button height like this. Then here I will go to background color will be primary color, and it will like this. Then I will keep the text color as white color. And if you want, we can add animation like this, but it's not necessary. When you make those changes, always apply the design and style that you use here because it will keep the uniqueness of the website. Now we have the subscribe form and if we want, we can go to Let's go advance and so we can add right patina 60 and the left padding 60 is too small, maybe 90 90 by 90 will be good, maybe one to 212120 by 120 will be good. So now it has smaller size, also, I will go to the main container. On main container, I will add the mint height as 350, maybe 400 and justify content will be center. Then one style, we can add the background color. Let's add this green color and let's reduce the green color opacity like this and let's make this as 600. Yeah, 600 will great and next let's go to the form on form, we have to set the action after submission. Here, I will remove this we need to do is we need to collect the submission, which means when user sent this email form, that email address will be regret to our email collection, and I will show you how it looks within a few minutes and also here if you want, we can add email marketing tool like mail Jim. If we select this mail him, you can see here we got the Mailchimp tab, and here we can add the Mailchimp ABI. In that way, you can connect your subscribe form to Mailchimp. In this lesson, I am not going to do it, so I will remove this mail chimp and also here we have this mail action, which means if we go here, if someone subscribe to this email list, we will get an notification, and we have to set up the two email also from email and stuff that we want to get the fields mean fields that has this form. Also, if you click on this plus icon, we have a lot of options here if we select this mail, we can also send a mail to our visitor or the person who fill this form and click the subscribe button, so we can notify him that we got their email. I will remove both of them, and if you like to add it, you can write yourself or if you have any issues while trying it, just let me know. I will create a laser. And on collect submission, we can collect the user IP and user agent of the sender. If someone send that form, we can collect the email also UIP user agent. On additional option, I will keep default promulgation as browser default and let's go back to form field and on Form field, here we can the page order, so we can say, let's say enter you email to subscribe on advance, if you want, you can set a default value, and if you want, you can change the ID. So in form creation lessons or the contact page design lessons, we will go deep into these fields, and for now, it's all looking good, and now I will publish this and let's test this subscriber form, so I will click on preview changes and let's go here. I will enter my email here, then I click on subscribe and here we got the success message. Also, we can change the message design. So if we go to style, here we have the message and let's change message typography to text and color will be this color. Error message color will be red like this, publish it. Now the message color will be different. So I will go to dashboard and on dashboard, under Elementor, you can see the submission section. If you click here, you can find out all the email or all the form submissions that you have on the website. So here under subscribe form, we got this email. What we can do is we can select the form here. If you have more than one form and if you want to get only subscribers, you can select the form and you can click on Export filter CSV and get the CSV file also in future or if you plan to use email marketing tool, you can use this CSV file to add those emails to your email marketing tool. Now it's looking good. 15. Designing the Footer: Now we have to create the Potter. So let's do that. To do it, I will go to the WordPress dashboard. On Wordpress dashboard, I will go to templates them Builder. On them Builder, here we have Footer. Just click this plus icon. Actually, I think we already created a Footer. Try to edit it. Here is the footer. I will remove this unnecessary footer, and here we have the footer and click on Edit. Here we go. I will go to set in on set in. I will just remove this text and let's keep only footer apart. Okay, now I will create a flex box like this. Then in mean height, let's make it as 300. Yes, then let's swing the margin and paddings. Then let's add 20 as margin top. Then on his style, let's add around. Let's add background like this. Let's make this as 350 pixel. Yeah, that's much better. Then from here, I will add a element. First, I will add the side logo, and also again on the container, let's select the direction as crow horizontal. And without just adding solely the side logo, I will add container, remove the stuff, then I will put this logo inside the container like this on container, it will be column vertical, and a line item start justify content will be start too. Now I need the ad text. Add the headline here, exchange this two paragraph and it will be text actually, this logo is not working here because this logo text is same as the background color. That's why that part is not showing, so we have to change the logo before we change it. Let's change this text color. And what I can do is without just adding the side logo, I will remove the side logo and I will add the image. And just like this, let's put it here. Then I have to change the image, make it here I will add the logo, choose this image and here on the resources section, you can see this is white logo. Let's add it like this. Then let's face the ALD tag. Now we have this logo without the white background. It's good. Now here we have to add a small paragraph. I will add text like this and now I will luplgate this container and I will do it for three times like this. Then I will remove this text and the logo, and I will do it for here too. Nice.

Now let's go to Etyle. Here I will search. Here, I will change the menu name to important link. And on menu Icecream, we have to change this menu, but let's do it after we create all the content. For now, let's go to its die and here, let's change it text to button and text color will be background color like this and edge over color will be green color and the active color will be also green color. And we can change the vertical padding if you like. And here I will add the space between as 15. And here, let's remove these horizontal and vertical paddings and let's make this as 30. 30 will be work, and it will look like this. Then what I can do is I can copy text and paste it like this, then click on the container, make it a line item center, and here I will change this to reasoned post. Then I will click on add element and add a post element. I will track these posts and drop it like this.

To do that, I will make this column as one and post page will be three, not minus two, three, and the image position will be left like this. And the image resolution medium will be work and here on the image width, let's make it like 30%, like this. Maybe let's make it as 40. Okay we need to show the title and we don't need to show the exert and we don't need to show the metadata. And also, we don't need to read more button, and let's make open a new window, so when someone click on it, it will open in a new window. Okay. Now let's go to Query on Query, I will select posts, it will order by the date and order will be DESC. Then I will click on this ignore ItigiPose and pagination, we don't need pagination. Then let's go to EtyleOEtyle, let's make column gap. Actually we don't need a column gap here. Let's make this raw gap as two and also let's make this column gap plus two. Anyway an alignment will be left and here we don't need to worry about the box, and also we don't need to worry about the image. Let's go to content, and let's change content title color to white color like this. Also, the typography will be text like this. Let's make this text size to 16. Now it's much better and also here, let's make line height 20. Alright, it's looking pretty good. And if we want, we can make this skin as card. So the background will be in white color, but I will keep it as classic. Okay. Now I will click on this main container, and let's go to Adlace let's add bottom as 220 like this.

I will show you how to create them too, and then we have to add those links too. Let's publish it. Okay. Now in next step, we have to fix the mobile issues. We have to fix the mobile issues of this homepage. Then we can go to Designer Aus, the blog and the Contact page, and let's do them in next few video. 16. Fixing Mobile Responsiveness: Go forward, let's fix responsive issues. Click on edit this element to edit this main page. Then let's go to tablet Atriov I look like this. We already fix the menu and header apart. Now we have to fix from this hero slider. If we go to the mobile view, it will look like this. What I can do is I can click on Edit template to edit hero section. Then I am on the hero section. If you check here, you can see four slider template, and here is the container. Let's go to main container and on main container. I will add Mnhight as hundred. I mean the hero section will actually in min height, I will add it like 80, so it will be 80% of the tablet view. Then on the container, I will make this with 100%. As I have to change the font size to do that I select the pose title and let's go to Etyle on Etyle Here I click on this icon, then I click on Manage Global font, a icon. Then from here, we can see we are on mobile Portriot. So on mobile Potriot I will change this size to like 46. Then also, the line height will be let's make it as 1.2. No. Let's make it as one. And also on the subeter I will make it like 41.21 will be line high. Also on text, I will change this text font size to 18, and for the button, let's make it 18 like this. Then I will click on Save changes and click on back to Editor. And here we go. Now we have smaller size fonts and on mobile hero template, it shows two items, but I only need one item. Let's try to fix it. Actually, we have to make that change on Loop carousel setting, so I will click save and bag and here I can select the container inside the container. Here we have Loop carousel on Loop carousel. Here we have slide on displays two on the tablet, I will make it one. In that way, it will show like this. Okay. Now it's looking pretty good. Let's click on Edit template and click on Save and on here, the in between size is bit bigger. So what we can do is change the gap. Actually, if we go to side setting on site setting layout here, we can see the gap. So we can change this gap to 15 or ten. Yeah, ten will be works. So on tablet, it will be ten, and for the content padding, if we want, we can add zero. Then let's go to mobile view on mobile view, it's look like this and gap ten will work on there too. Now I will quick conceive change and I will go back here, then if I go to global fonts and here is the header font size on mobile. So let's change it to 36 and inet will be one. Actually, default lint is one, so no need to change it. And here, let's make this as 32, and the text size will be 18 and line height will be 1.2. Let's make it 1.4. So it will be easy to read also for the buttons, let's make it as 18. And now click conceive changes back to So when we use global fonts, we don't need to adjust them manually. When we adjust it on the global font, it will affect all the elements. Now our header is looking good. Now let's go to our latest inside section, and let's fix the tablet version first. So on the tablet version, we have to add the left and right padding. Let's add right padding as ten and also left padding as ten or maybe 15 15 is the size that we have to uh, yes, it's 15. Okay, and it's looking very good. Then let's go to the mobile view and see what we can do. On mobile view, we don't have to do anything. It's adjust accordingly. If we want, we can change the in between size, but I will keep the default 15. Then we have this section, so I will go to tablet version, and as we did before, we have to change the right to 15, also left to 15, and it will adjust also, it will adjust on the mobile. Then here we have to do the same two subscriber section, what advance here will be 15 and left will be 15. If you think this space is too much, you can remove it, but I think this space is better. Now our homepage is fully responsive and here we have a issue click on the subscriber form and we add the right and left padding, so I will make it zero and it will look like Okay, now I will publish it, then we have to edit the footer, click on footer and on footer, let's go to tablet version. And here, what we have to do is add left and right. Top will be 20, will be 15, bottom to 20. And then here the reason pose, we have to make it one column and it will look like this. Then on mobile, the top part is okay, an important link is okay. For the reason post, it looks like this. And if we make the image position top, we can see the text like this and the issue is it will affect all the section, so I will make it as left like before. So in situation like this, what we can do is we can duplicate this section, and then I will hide this above section on the mobile view, so it will be only available for desktop and tablet, and it will not available for mobile view. So I will go to Advance and here Responsive on responsive, we can click on hide on Mobile Portal. And when we go to mobile, let's go down. It will not show. And then we don't want to show this on tab lat and desktop version. To do that, I will click here and go to Advance and responsive. Here, I can make it hid on tab and Hy on desktop. So it will be hid on those screens, and it will available only on the mobile version. Now here, what I can do is I can click on Content and make image position top. So our pose title will show like this also on the Is dies we can to image and we can change the spacing like this, make it as two maybe three will work. Now on desktop, this will be not show. I will show the image with left side, this one, and on mobile, this will be show. Now I click publish and let's check it in real design. Here, I will right click and click on Inspect. Then here I will click on this Toggle device tool bar. And here now we have the mobile version, and if I scroll down, here is the result that show. And on the desktop version, here is the result. I hope you got the idea. Okay, now we successfully design the header but also here, we have to add height and left readiness 15 and publish it nice. Now here we have the design. 17. Designing the About Page: We have to design the ATS page. Let's click on here. Currently we have the empty page. What I do is I click on Edit page. Then here, I click on Edit with elemento button. Now I am at elemento editor, so I can just click here and click Context blocks and click direction column to create a new container and let's make Margin and Padina zero here there's at Margin to pass 60 like this and here we have to add the details and first I will add the headline the headline text it will be center and the typograph will be header, and also I will duplicate it and make this as paragraph and at this typography text. Now what I have to do is I have to generate content. What I can do is I can get the help of AI. Okay, here I am at the AI chat that I used to generate blog post, and here I will say, give me about page headline and content, you need to have header sub header and description about us. In your case, you have to write it yourself or use help of AI according to your niche and it generated something that I don't want, so I have to tell this AI this is for the block website, it includes all the let's go up and check our categories. Just copy the category. It includes all three categories, three categories, and other three categories and give me about content for this block website. And let's see what will happen. Okay, this is good. Let's copy this part, and here I will just add it like this and in your case, don't do the same. You have to do it according to your niche and according to your website is tied. Then here, we can add what we cover so. Let's add that one after this session. So what I can do is I can lick here, click Context Box and direction as column. Then go to advance on Advance. Let's add margin to pass one, 220, and inside this, I will create another container and let's remove all the margins and paddings and on layout, I will say the direction as horizontal and Y content will be here, and then I will click here and add the image. Then I will add a headline right here. Did you remember this container is a direct horizontal container? That's why this headline added like this and let's go here. I will just copy the headline text here and add the headline text like this. Actually, we can use this container. I will add the image and headline to this main container and then let's make this main container as direction horizontal. Then I will add this headline, only this headline inside the container and this container, the subcontainer will be column vertical like this. In that way, we will not need to add lot of elements then let's go to STIs and STIs make this as subheader like this. Then I will duplicate this and let's make this as content H three. Also, this one will be H four and here at the person. Actually, we can add that grid that we already created. I will remove this one and let's go to the homepage and on homepage, I will click on Edit with Elementor. You see, I am not designed this website or call into a plan. I am just created real time. You know, I just copy this grid, just copy it and let's come here, then pace the grid like this. Then on the grid, actually we don't need the grid here, but let's grid the grid grid, the columns will be one and the rows will be one, two, three, four rows. Oh, like this. And here, let's make this image sizes 40%. Actually, we have to go to advance. Let's make the image size here as hundrn and on advance, the width will be astern, which means 40%. Like this. Nice. Actual range as 50, 60, 60% will work, and this one will be 40 per. No, this one should be 60% and this image should be 40% like this. Now here, I have to add a image. This image should be vertical image. When I create the image, I should consider about that. I will create the image. Come back here. I just created the image, so create image I use CNMAOuse website like fxs.com and use Figma to cut it and change the sizes. Here we have the image, this image ha use is 700 and the width is 600. Let's add it here and let's see what we have to do. I will just and drop it like this and here copy the ol tag, past the ol tag, and here it will look like this and it's not fully covered here. What we can do is we can increase the image height. I will go to Canva and do it and we'll come back. Just design the image, I will go here and at that image attack and let's see is still not perfectly aligned with our design. So what I can do is I can make this as aligned center, or I can increase this custom with live make it like 50, 50 will be worth. Or what you can do is you can find out the width and height of this section. So to do that, you can click on preview changes. And here we go on here. I will right click click on Inspec and click here. Then here you can see the image height and image with height. You can use this with height to create the image. Now let's move on to the next section and let's go here. Let's see the next section. Next section is why we do this and join our community. Let's create those two sections. I can easily duplicate this section and paste yes we have to paste it below this. What we cover section, we can just do it like this and here make this march in top pass one, two, 20, and let's change this text to why we do this like this, and then we can add this section. Now we have to add join our community section. What I can do is I can copy this text, just duplicate this text and put it below, then here, then copy this and ublgate this section and paste it below like this and add it like this. Then I have to add on here, add this form, so I will just copy it and paste it like this. In here, I will click on this headline and let's make it as H three also will do the same to be a H three. And when we add this as middle, it not very use apparently, what we can do is we can click here and make it a line left like this. Also, we have to do the same here and the subscribe session, let's make left and write patins like this. Now what I want to do is add image like this to this side to do that, we have to wrap these items in different container. Let's click here and add a container like this and all the stuff here I will just add all the item inside this container like this. Here we go. Now, let's have an space between those two section. We can easily add margin drop to here or we can use two different containers. I will just add a margin top here. Let's make it as 30 or maybe 60, 60 will work. And the other ways we can click here and add a container like this and again, remove those stuff and inside this container, we put this one and this one. Then I will duplicate that container and remove this one and this one, then I will put this one and this one inside that container. Now, actually, we have to add this one too. This is a little bit work, but just add in the margin top will be but I just want to show this for you now on this main container, I can go to layout and I can add the row gap as 60 like this. Then I want to add a image here. To do that, I will I will click on the main container and change it direction to row horizontal and just duplicate this. No, let's just copy this image and just click here and paste the image like this. It will be just according to the design and click here. Let's make this as 60. Then click here and make this align items center. Also we have to do the same here like this. Now I can change this image. Here is the newly created image and I click here, then go to Content and upload the image. Also we have to add the ALT text. When you add the ALT text, always add meaningful text and O friendly keywords like how to be wealthy or something like this. And here we go, we just design the a page. Also, if we want, we can add more section to this page, but let's keep this as minimalistic. Now white on published, and next lesson, we have to fix the mobile responsive issue. 18. Fixing Mobile Responsiveness on the About Page: Okay, now we have to fix the mobile responsive issues. Before we do that, in last video that we do the mobile responsiveness, we change this gap to ten, but we only want to do it in tablet and mobile versions, but the desktop version also changed. Let's go to side setting and on layout here, let's make this as two y because if we make it ten, it will always ten and let's click on changes, click on back to Editor Okay, perfect. Now let's go to tablet portrait version, and let's change them. Let's add adding right as 15 and left at as 50. Also here, let's change this. Let's make it direction column and then click on the image and go to advance and make this as hundred or we can just make it full and also we have to do the same here. It's actually on the layout, make it 100% like this. Then we can add the right patterns 15, left patinusfty nine. Now here also we can do the same make column vertical, then go to advance at right paddin as 15 and left pattern as 50. Then let's click here on advance. Make this full w. All right. Now it's looking pretty good. Then let's go to mobile patriot on mobile Port riot. It seems everything looking very good and we don't have to do anything. Okay, now click on publish, as like that, we just design the A page too. Now we have to set up the blog page and let's do it in the next lesson. 19. Blog Page Setup: Okay, now let's set up the block page to do that, we can use element or Them Builder. Under templates, here we have the Team Builder. Just click on it and now here, click on this at New. When you click on this, here we can see each and every section of our website that we can edit. We have to edit all of them. First, let's edit the block section. Here we have archive. If I click on this Info icon, here we can have the description. So here we can create the block list. Let's do that, click on this plus icon and here we can get the pre built templates. If you like, you can use one of them, but I'm just close it and let's build it from scratch. I will click on this plus icon, Tex Box here, then make this zero as the value and for the margin top, let's make it 60 on elements, here we have archive title. I will just add it and this will automatically adjust according to the page. Here I will make it center and let's change typography to header like this. Then again, I will click on add element and here we have arch force just rag and drop it. Did you remember the last time that we did the same on the homepage and here we can do the same? Now here we have to adjust the style to do that first, let's select the skin as part like this, then the column will be three and we should show the image. Let's make image resolution like medium large so we can get clear image and we have to show the title exerpt and except length will be, let's make it as two. Then if you want, you can show the date and commands. So in this case, I am not showing the data or commands, so I will just delete it like this and here we can keep the read more button, and here we have the batch. Then let's go pagination. We can set pagination like this or we can use this infinity Escod, which means when scroll the website, rest of the images will load. Also here, we can add no more post message. I will keep the default message. If you want custom message, you can use this. Okay. Now let's go to EtyleTap on ItyleTab, make column gap pass and a gap will also 20 alignment center alignment and card, we have the work shadow and I'm not going to change much on there. Also on the content, I need to hide the author. Here, let's swing this Atison because we don't need it. Now let's go to style on card. I will keep the default data for here. Let's go to image and let's change image spacing. Let's make it like C and the badge background color will be this color and the text color will be this color. Now on content, the title color will be primary color and the font color will be, let's make this subheading, then we have to change it to 21. Here it will be 28, we can make it semiv like this. Now on meta, we don't need to worry about meta because we didn't add any. Then on excerpt, let's add the text color. Also the typography will be text like this and also we can change the spacing and now we have to take care of the read more button. Let's make it green color. The typo will be button, but we have to reduce its size. Let's make it 16. You can check this design and follow that same design pattern because we have to keep the uniqueness of the page in each page. We don't have a pagination and here make this nothing pound message primary color and it's a bit like subheading. Okay. Now all good. However, just adding this archiv text is not a good idea. Let's create a headline and subeding using AI. Now I am at our JG BT chat, here I will say, give me header and header or blog page. Here, let's copy this sub. Actually, I will copy this one and let's change this. I will just remove this. I have to remove it. Then click here and add a headline like this, then style Men header. Actually, let's make it subhead head is two B. Here I need to show this in two lines. What I can do is I can add a RO break tag like this. Then I will duplicate this, then come here and change typographic to text and let's add this text right here like this. Okay. Now I need to add some spacing here so I can simply add bottom margin as 20 like this. Nice. Now it's looking good. Now what I can do is I can click on Publish and now I click on Add condition. On Add condition, I can include Earl archives, but this is not what we need. We need to add post archive. We need to show only posts, click on post archive and click save close. Now how to access this page? Actually, I will go to set in and change this to host gave. I think that word is correct, but I don't know. Now if we view this like this, it will show but that's not what we need. We need when we click on this block or when we go to the blog page that we already created, this block list should be appeared. To do that, I have to go to WordPress Dashboard. Let's go to WordPress Dashboard. And on Wordpress dashboard, here I will go to setting and undersetting, go to Reading. On reading, set post pages blog, then click on Save changes. Now if I check it here, it appeared like this. See, it's looking pretty good and it will automatically show the next set of post or the blog post. Actually, if I check this, the space in here is really small. We need to add bit space between those two sections. So to do that, I will go to Footer. Click on Then click here and let's go to Advance. On Advance, let's add top margin as 1220. In that way, we will have a better space. Maybe let's add it as 60 and click on Publish. And now, if I check it in the signs the home page, here we can see the spacing and also on the log page, we can see it clearly here. Okay, now it's looking pretty good and this is not it, we have to do more stuff. As an example, here on the homepage, we have categories. Here is our categories. Here is category. If I click on category, it show like this and this is not looking good at all. What we have to do is we have to go to the Team builder under them builder, click on forced gave, and here I will right click here and click on OpenNw window tower postcard. Then what I can do is I can click on at New and ignore this. What we are going to do is if we go to category page like this or search page as an example, let's search ABC. Actually, there is no ABC post, let's search tax. When we do the searchlight tax, it will show like this, but this is not what we want. We have to create each archi page for those sections. Let's do that. Doing it is really easy. First, I will fix the responsiveness issues on this blog archiv. After that, we can just copy this. To do that, I will click here and here we have to add the pad in let's right Paden 15, left padding 15. Also this text is too big to fix it, go to style on content. Let me go to the homepage and check it too. I think on homepage, we fixed it, but we have to check it and make sure on homepage, we fixed it correctly. Let's see content, the typography changed to 21. We did it. Let's do the same here. On here, content and title will be 21 like this here also 2.1 0.1 will be work and the rest of the text is okay. Actual 21 is too small, doesn't it? No, it's okay t's go to mobile and on mobile, it's looking pretty good. Nothing to do here. We are good to go. Now what we can do is we can just rightly copy. Then we can go to new archive page and can face this. Then here we have to add archive title, not the custom title, we have to add this archive title like this. Let's delete this one also delete this one and let's do it again. Just rag and drop the archive title like this. Then one d make it center and add subheader, then here, let's see the invit pin size here. It's 20. There's a margin bottom as 20. Now I can publish this. When I publish this, I have to add the condition, click on add condition and then here we can set this. If I set it all archives, it will set to the all of archiv pages, what I want to do is I want to add all archives and add another condition. Then in this condition, I have to exclude post archive because we have a different archive page for it and also we have to exclude search result Archiv and then I will click on Save and Close. Okay. Now here, if we check like this on search Archiv, it will not work because we exclude that search Archiv p type. I will go to the homepage and let's go to our category. In this category, it show like this and see. Now what I want to do is I want to add the search field. If we add the search field to block page, we can search the post. Let's do that. To do it, I will first remove all of them. Let's publish this and let's clear up the page like this and go to dashboard. On dashboard, I have to go to the Them Builder. On them Builder, again, we have to go to archive. Actually, we forgot to rename this archive page edit and here let's set the name as oh my god, and publish it. Okay, now let's go back. 20. How to Add a Search Bar: Okay, here on the post page, we have to add or we need to add the search field. Let's click on Edit and on here I will add search. Now let's add the search bar right here. Here we go. Here we have the search bar. In here, I can change this text if I want, so I will keep it like this. Now here we have results. In these results, we can show the live results and I will show you how it's set up in next lesson or after we completing this search functionality. Then we have query. On query, I will set this source as posts because if we set this as all, it will show post pages and other stuff that our website have, but we only need to search posts. Click on posts and on additional setting, we don't need to worry about this, and then let's go to EtyleOEtyle, I will set search field typography to text like this, then let's set the text color and we don't have a icon. Also on focus, we can change the text color like this. Then for the gap between input and button will be two like this. And then on clear, we don't have a icon so we don't have to set it up. Then for the submit button, text color will be background color, and the background type will be secondary this green color. Also, we have to set the typography to button like this. Then this search button board radius will be zero and we have to add the top and bottom padding. Actually top and bottom is okay. We have to add the right pattern. Let's at 30 and left also will be 30, maybe 60. Let's add a 60. It will be better because we need to shoulder here and on the button and on a showers change text color will be white and the background color is primary color like this. Also we can add the HA effect like this. Now it's looking pretty good. If we want, we can add instruction like search post, but I am not going to do that, so I will go to advance advance let's at bottom Patmus 20. We will have space to breathe like this. Now it's looking pretty good. Now I will click on Publish and we have a lot more to do, but let's try this up for try this, I will contribute changes and let's the blog page and here I will type tax and click Osearch. When I click CSearch it have all the details or all the post that related to tax, but we have to create the search Archiv field and let's do it. To do it, we have to go to the Team Builder Team Builder, let's go to Templates Team Builder and now we have to create search Archiv page. To do that, click on adn and click on Archive. And here, let's remove this and we can just get this section just copy and paste. Okay. Now what we have to do is let's add text, so I will duplicate this then put it down here. Here it should be here. Then let's change this alignment like this and make it paragraph and remove this text and click here and set this Archiv or Archiv tit. It will show the archive title here and let's go to E tyle on Es style. Let's change typography, let's 21 and here make this semble and here 26 will be here we go. This is a dynamic tag. Remember, we at the archive title. This archive title is similar to the page title. As an example, if we search tracks here, this will be the archive title or the title of the page. In this case, it will not here in this case, it will show Now I want to take here and set the title search archive. Did you remember that we didn't set search page when we publish it here at condition? Here we have search results. When we set up all archive page, we didn't set this. That's because we need a separate page like this to do it. Now I click on SavanClos and it published. Now if I check it, if I just repress this page, it will be like this. Let's try to copy this section. Now let's see it search perfectly. Now as the next step, actually I have to check the responsiveness. Here you can see the responsiveness is not looking great. On the tablet version, it's perfect and on mobile, let's click here and let's go to style on Etyle submit button, we have to mail this as 20 all 20. Surely, let's make it zero and will be 15 by 15 like this. And also, here we have the clear icon, and this is the clear icon. Actually, we can change its color like this. And if you want, we can change the icon size. So here is that icon. I just forgot it. Okay. Now it's looking pretty good. Now publish it. Actually, I will copy this part and on search Aga we have to pace the style like this. Okay. Now publish it and next we have to set up this. Let's click here results. To set up it, I will dig results and click on Show here we have to create a temp live result mean when I search like this, the result will show on here. It will show in real time. To do that, I will click on reattemplate, concept here, let's change this to live search results. Click here xbox and add the ex box like this, then remove your STA. For padding let's at Padins six. Now here we have to add the tap that we need to show. First, we need the featured image, I will make it 300 by 300 and then what we need to show is post title. If we want, we can show the post excerpt, but let's not show the post excerpt. If you want, you can just add it like this and I'm not going to do that, so I will delete it. Now I will click here and let's go to layout. The layout direction will be horizontal and this image should be here, then click here, then change the typography to text like this and this image look okay. Then what I have to do is I have to add border bottom because this will load item like this because the post will load like this horizontal. First row is here, second row is here. Let's click on main container one style we call border. The border is solid and bother with, let's make it to the border color will be this color and actually we only need bottom, we only need the bottom border like this and let's make this colorless little ash like this. This is it and this is not it. We have to add the link, which means when you click on this image or this text, it should be redirect to the particular post. To do that, click on. Let's do it for the image first, click on the image. Make this as custom URL and here at dynamic tag and here, click on postRLT is dynamic tag and post URL will there also, let's do the same for this text here, we can easily post okay and text color on primary, let's show the primary color on normal on edge over. Let's make it secondary like this. Okay, now I click on publish and let's go back here. Then I will click on publish, and here I will search here Live search result template that we just created, just select it and publish it. Then let's try it. Actually, we have to test it on Live that's right here. When we do it, here is the result, but it's not looking good at all. Let's change the design to change the design, here, I will go to EtyleOEtyle now we have results page. On result, let's add the background color. Let's add this color as the background color. Let's add small box shadow. A let's not add it. Let's search like tag here. Now we can change it on the design by checking the design. First I will make the distance from search field as zero and the bold radius will be zero padding, let's make padding as zero. If we want, we can change the width of it tax. With the result like this. But let's keep widths the time. Text field like this, that is the better way, and the gap between row will be zero and gap between column, we don't have a column, and this is it. The rest of the design, we can change using the live search result page so click here and first let's start with the image. Okay. Let's go to style alignment will be left, and let's add width as 100%. And for the container, let's justify items, align center. Let's make full width, and then let's see. Let's click on publish and let's test it again. Tax. It is still bigger and the images are not aligned correctly or they have different sizes. We have to fix it and change the size of the image. To do that, I will go to here and let's add a container right here. On the container, let's make margin and padding a zero, then let's add the image and on container, I will add container with a 40 and then I will duplicate the container, and here we have to not feature image. I have to duplicate the container like this, then remove the image from here and at the pose title. Also make this with as 60. And the in between size, let's make in between size as 50 maybe this size will be 30 will be work 30 will be work, and here, make this 70 and click CPablish and let's see the preview right now. Let's off this work. E search tag. Now images are aligned correctly, but still the image size is too big. To fix it, let's go to forced archive and I need to make this image smaller. Let's try to do it from here. Exchange it with 50% and here the container size will be also then let's go to container and on container, no, we have to go to container on container, make it center. Center like this. Let's make max with acid add Alignment center here. Water radius will be zero, and let's see if it works. Let's got post cave tanks. Finally, now it's looking much better. Now we have this space, so it's not going to work. What we can do is we can click on the container and remove the max like this. Actually, without changing it, let's change this container size. Maybe let's add it like 50 and let's try now. Let's hope it work. Finally it's working. What I did is I just keep the featured image size as 100% and here I change this container to 15% like this and this container will be let's make it like this. I will autofill and click on publish and now it's looking pretty good. C Tanks. And there you can add a lot of stuff. As example, you can add the EAP. So what we can do is we can go here and clcpas icon here at post exp and go to Style and first click on these settings and in setting, add Exap length as maybe 15 will work. And on advance if you want, you can add more stuff. Then on Etyle let's make it a line lave and change the typography to text. Let's make it like s 60. Let's make this spacing as 15 and let's add text color like ash color. Then we can publish and let's see the design right now is to where I just publish it, but nothing happens. Tax. I didn't appear, let's lickier and less good content. Let's make this apply to pose content and let's see if it connote text tax text. Now here we go. Here is the excerpt, and here is text, also, here we add a lot of spacing this as six not zero. Let's make it. Yeah, let's make it a zero and on this container, let's make this O as sixk Now publish it and let's click here in search. Oh. Here we go. Here is the final design. And if you want, you can test more ideas and make this better, but this is good for me. And now we have search page done, also live search result done. Now we have to add the same functionality to this search Archiv we just addit only to forced archiv copy and come past style. Also here, we have to go to result open and hear search search because we have to set up the template and click on Fablsh now if we go to search result page page, and let's test it. When we test it, it will like this. Pretty good. Next step, we have to edit the single post, and let's do it in the next lesson. Currently, if we go to personal finance, we will see it like this and text, we will see it like this. In next lesson, if we click on this single post, we need to change this design. Let's do it in 21. Single Blog Post Design: Okay, now let's design this single blog post template. To do that, I will go to WordPress dashboard, or WordPress dashboard. Then here let's go to Team Builder. Inside Team Builder, click on at New, and here we have single post. Click on it. Here we go. I will remove this one because we don't need it. Then first, I will click on here and create a Plex box like this. Actually, let's create two column one because we didn't create e two column structure, so let's click here and let's create this type of one. We can do it manually, though. But let's click here and let's remove all the margin and paddings and let's do it here, same also. Let's do the same here. Okay. Now on the top, let's add top margin as 60. Now first, we have to add the pose title. Add it and then we have to add post content. Actually, before post content, we have to add the feature image like this and then at the bottom, let's add post navigation, so it will navigate previous and next post after we add in all of this, we can make the design then before that, I need to add Share button. Here, we have share button set. Let's add it like this and then if you allow users to comment, you can add post command section like this and before that, I will add post section. In this post section, we will get added post. Now let's start design. Before we design, let's add all the content that we plan to add to the sidebar. For this side bar, I will add search. Actually, we can get the search bar from here, just rightly copy. Here is the post arch search bar. Then paste it like this. We have to change the design, and then I will add post set like this. Okay. What else? This is enough for now. If you have more stuff like author, if you want to add the author details, we can add orthobox like this. And yeah, let's add orthobox too. So in that way, you can clearly see even though we don't add it here, but if I add it, you can clearly see how to use it. Okay. Now we have to edit the design. So let's start from spacing issue. So here we need to have a spacing from those sections, click on the main container and go to layout at column mass 20. Then let's take care of this header go to style. Left typography will be subhead like this. Then the image, the image, we don't need to do anything. I will make it full and for this text, I will make alignment left and text color will be text, and typogram will be this text like this. Okay, now let's go here and on here, we can add Share button, so let's click on Share button and let's add Pinterest, duplicated, Twitter, not twitter egg let's add only those stuff. If you want, you can add other, and here you can change the design. I will say the gradient type is square, the column will be at alignment left target URLs, current page, and one style, we don't need to do anything. It's already looking good. Then on advance, I will add margin bottom as 60. Now it has more space also. The top is 30, 33 30, like this. Now we have to edit this previous and next button to do that, go here. And if you how the label, you can hide it, but I'm going to show it and let's show the arrow for tile and also this border. Then let's go to E style on E tyle. The label color will be this green color and the typography will be the button typography and let's make it 16. Or 18 will be work. Then, post title color will be also this color and text will be this, but we have to reduce it like 12 12 will work and arrow, the arrow color will also this green color or we can add light gray color like this and I will give the default size. The border will look like this. If we want, let's add some spacing like this. Okay. Now it's looking okay. Traday there was heavy rain, so I stopped recording. So let's continue. And what we did is we add the Her color or dgo color to this post navigation element. So we go through all of those items and add the edge of color. Okay, now let's go up and start from here. Okay, now then we have to take care of this section. Easily what we can do is we can go to dashboard of the word press. Then actually we have to visit the site and I will lick on edit with element or. We can easily copy This is a post element. So on homepage, here we have the same post element. What I'm going to do is I will right click copy, come here, right click and paste the style. Actually, let's make it card. When I make it card, the design changed. Okay, now what I do is I change the column count to two and we will have two column posted and post per page will be also two. Show images, and let's keep all info, and here I will remove metadata and comments and excerpt length will be, let's make it as 50 and show read more, which will be category, and important thing is query. On query, what we can do is set the source as ports and date will be all order will be random. So when someone visits this post, they will have a random two posts and pagination none, we don't need to worry about pagination, and this content is also completed. So what we can do is go to the command section. I'm not going to use command section for this blog, but I will show you how to make it better. So here, click on this pencil icon and on command here we have a skin, select the theme commands, and source will be current forced in advance. We don't have much stuff to do, but still the links and the button color is not same as our theme color. To fix it, I will click here and make this save draft and let's go to stsetting. On side setting, we have to style to this theme. So to do that, let's go to typography. Let's make body text color as text, and the typography will be text. See if when ID do it, it changed and typography spacing, I will just leave it as it is, and here link colors will be this color on HO let's make it primal like this and the typography will be also same and then we have this comment button here if you want, you can select the typography like this, but I'm not going to do it. I will save changes here and still we have to fix the button colors to do that, I will go back and here we have buttons. On buttons, I will say the type of gapio button and on normal text color will be background color and the background color will be secondary color and we don't have a border radius. Also we don't have a border type, and we have to add the paddings and margin. Let's make top pass 15, 22, 15, 22, like this. If you want more space, you can add it, but I will keep it like this and on edge over, the text color will be pack brown color, and the type will be primary color like this. Okay. This is how we can do it, and now we can click on Save changes and click on back to Edit Okay. As I told you before, I am going to remove this because I don't need it. I just show you it for. If you need to add that to your website, you can follow the steps. Now here we have the author profile on author profile. We can make the layout as we want, and here let's go to Etyle. I will keep the image. I will keep the setting as it is, and the name will be let's make the primal color and the typography will be button. Let's keep the text. Let's make it button size. As this biography takes typography with this text and button, currently, we don't see a button, so let's keep it as default. Actually, we have to add our user details to make this look better. So let's do it after we complete the rest of the design, and now here we have the search bar, click on it, and let's go to EtyleOEtyle submit button. We have this padding. Let's remove completely like this, then let's make it as six by six or 12 by 12 will be much better. Now this is pretty good also on tablet version, it will look like this and it's okay.

Okay, here, let's copy this one and paste it here, then we need to have a profile feature. Actually, we have to connect this website with Gravata to do it. I'm not going to do it, so I will click on Update Profile and then if I go here and let's go to post, Oh my God. Here we have all information about the author. But it's too long, what we can do is we can go to the dashboard and team build click on this element of single post. We actually have to change the name.

If we publish this and let's go to here here it still didn't update it, but for some reason, it's not updating. However, if we click on that button, we will go to this arch page. Now the single block post part is completed and most of work is completed. Now we have to create the contact page. Let's do. 22. Designing the Contact Page: Now let's create the contact page. To do that, I will go to the Contact page and click on Edit page. Then from here, click on Edit with elemento and I will go to ChaGBt and say, me content for contact page.

Actually, let's go to at page and click on Edit with Elementor and from here, we can copy this section. In that way we don't need to build it from scratch. And then let's copy this text, place it here, copy this text. Okay. Now we have to get in touch part and partnerships and guest collaboration. Let's add those info. First, let's create direction row column and let's remove all the margins and paddings and add margin top pass one to 20. Then I will click here and add the container. Also, let's remove margin and padding on that container. Then click here and add a headline. This headline will get in touch, copy, paste it like this, go to Estyle align until we left, typography will be subheader. Then we have to add this email phone and office hours. To do that, I will go here and search icon list. Here we go just drag and drop it like this. Then here change this icon to nlop. Let's get this actually. Let's get this one and then we have to add the email. Let's get this email. The email will be invoke at custom website design.us and also on the link if you want, you can add mail two and email address. I think this should be correct info search Mail two on Google. Mail to work like that. Se Nice. When someone click on this icon, it will open this email, it will open email box, and then we have to add the location, the location it's phone number. Let's add this phone number. This is a page one. I will just add as it is search phone and add the phone number right here, then we have to add the office hours.

And nice. Also, we want to show the required mark, and this message should be required like this and button is okay. So if we want, we can change this submit button text, but I'm not going to do that. On action after submit will be collection submission and email. So on collection submission, we can collect this form data into the collection submission form which located under Elementor and submissions and then on email, here we can set the two emails. So when someone asks a question, you can directly get it to your email box. And here as the message, if we add the all fields, we can get the all fields. Or if you want specifically one field, you can go to four fields. Let's think we need this name. So let's go to advance and we can copy the short code and come here. Then on email, we can just tach his name is the name, two will be our email and the prom will be the person who sent this email. I already created how to set up emails and SMDB. If you didn't check them, I will add it after this lesson and after we set up all of those informations, we can go to EstilsOtils, we can change the column gap. Let's make column gap as 15 and the row gap should be 15, not column gap. Let's make it as two. Then label is spacing. Let's make this space to label. Maybe six will work. Yeah.

Then on message, we can say success message in green, error message in red in line message color will be this color. This should be red. Okay. Now we don't need to worry about steps because we only have simple form. Now we can publish this and if it, here is the form, and now if I fill the form, then click consent, we will get the submit message. Also, we can change those messages if you want to change those messages, let's go to additional options and on custom message, you can add custom messages, and I'm not going to do that. Let's go to submission page and in submission page, here is the test message that I just sent. Now we do have the contact page and the fully working blog as the next step if you plan to get Google Adsens or plan to run ads, you have to have term and condition and privacy policy pages. I next lesson, I will show you how to generate them 23. Create an Email and Configure SMTP: Do it, I will go to my name chip account. You should go to the HSTMPvider and access the C panel. So here I just click on here and click on Go to C panel. Okay, I redirect to the C panel and on C panel, so if you didn't use Name JP, it doesn't matter. The C panel is same on every HosteM provider. It may have some changes, but it's pretty similar. And if you don't have email account or if you are service provider, email account, you have to contact them and get it from them. So on name Jif we already get the emails. So if I scroll down, we can here email account, or we can just search here email. Here we go. Okay. From here, I will just click on email account. Okay, here, I have my old emails. From here, I just click on Cre and here I just select our website URL, and for use Name, I will add info and let's generate a password.

Click on Install Now. All right. Now, click on Activate. I will just click on go back to dashboard. Okay. Now here we have the setting. Also, we can test if our email working correctly or not. If we go to tools on tools, here we have email test, and here we can add our email address and click on send email, then it's say there is an issuer detected. However, this site email work before. Let's see if we get email this time. Okay, I just log into my Gmail account and I am not seeing the email, which means this plugin break email functionality of my website. So let's fix it. So first, I will go to settings in setting here, I will have to set the prom email. So our prom email will be this one. Copy it and pace the pmmail here. The Prom mail mean email that we send emails from this website, and then here force Prom email, make it on, and here we can set the name. I will keep the default name, and I will keep the default data. Then in mail Iwa the SMTP. Okay, here we have to add the SMTP host. So let's get those information. To get those information, I can just go to C Panel and here is our email, and I just click on Connect Devices. Okay, here we have all the information. First, we need host as host, I will use this email address. Let's go here and add host as our current email address. Then for encryption, select SSL, and here SMTP pot is 465, SMTP host should be this outgoing server. Just copy it and paste it here, not the email address, and SMTP use name will be the email the username and here the password to the email account. Did you remember that when we create email account, we just create the password for it at that password, pace the password. Okay, authentication make on, then I click on Savesetting. So if you use Google Workspace or other email provider, just select the mailer that you use and set up the details. In this case, we are using SMTP of the server, so I set up that information. Okay, let's go to tools and here we got some issue, refresh it. Okay, here at the send to email and click on sendMil let's see what will happen. For some reason, the website is not loading, but let's hope this will work. Okay, it says success and here is warning message, and for now, let's ignore it. So now here we got the email. If you follow the same step that I use, you will successfully able to fix the email not sending issue. 24.

After we completed it, I can just publish this and if I view it, here is our privacy policy page. Yes. Now we have to add this Footer, also, we have to generate the term and condition. It's pretty easy. You can Google term and condition generator, and here you can get term and condition generator.com and you can follow the step as we did before and complete the form, then you will get the SDML code like this. I'm not going to do that. Now what I'm going to do is I will go to Mino on menus, here I will use important links, and on important links, I will add the privacy policy link like this. Now I will click Save. Then if I check the website, let's go down here. We have the privacy policy link. If I click on it, I will redirect to our privacy policy page.
