I have to say that I miss your contents like a "build from scratch".

Thanks Brad ❤ .. waiting for next video 🤩

Hello Brad here is the challenge i completed .of your video at 20.20 min of placing 2 different headers without touching query loop. i find the document overview option then navigated to location of column and then added a just above the news letters column , and divided in to 2 column and then added headings over it and its done.

Thanks a lot Brad for this video!

Good video! :) Looking forward to the next one! I guess this approach only working for FSE themes like twenty twenty five where we got the "templates", and does not work on classic themes like Astra, Kadence, Blocksy etc? Is that correct?

Brad your teaching skills are amazing, I too have done the Wordpress course (a couple of years ago) and I now have a small design agency where I build out custom block based themes for events and local business. I also use Local by Flywheel (which is amazing) and I use their dedicated hosting platform too which makes the experience pushing and pulling sites (including their database) SO easy!! However discussing the direction of Wordpress in 2024, I don’t like the FSE. As I want our designers to UX design every component and I only want content editors to add blocks of content. With NO interaction with the designs on the front end. So currently I’m achieving this using PHP only and using ACF blocks. Would love to know your thoughts on this approach, I don’t yet know REACT and my vanilla JS skills probably aren’t good enough yet to move into REACT so for now this is a great way for me to continue personal developing whilst earning a living.

💚

Hey Brad, thanks for the video. But do you really need a plugin for displaying meta values in the template? Because as far as I know WP supports this feature natively.

Nice

24:00 "This in my opinion is the true power behind WordPress". That's not the power of wp that generally the power of dynamic web. In my opinion staying in wp limits you, why not go one extra step and learn how to do this in code and feel the real power and freedom? I guess there is a market for people who can only work with user interfaces...

Thank you so much for this video. Always my favorite teacher.

Hi Bro, Nice Tut and I want create event listing website, is that possible?

thank you

Cant wait for the coding videos to start?

A few years ago I was going through the code/no-code decision, and your "Learn JavaScript: Full-Stack from Scratch" course was one of the main reasons why I went down the all-code route. Thanks for that! Nothing in the world will get you from the happiest man alive to suicidal and back as fast as JavaScript, but being able to code your own blocks and do your own magic is priceless. This video sums up the no-code experience quite well: in order not to touch code, let's install a plugin and use someone else's code. It's still code, just not your code. :) Learning the basics of PHP and JS can take you to a whole new level when it comes to WordPress, making it a true CMS. Thanks for your videos. No matter how much I know about any subject, I can always learn something new from you. ;)

Awesome information...... Is learning WordPress still worthwhile in today's technological landscape?

Hi - I have got as far as trying to add the pattern for the Pet Listing page (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoiWZ3yYlqpgd9U) and all I get is the "Start Blank" option - no option to add the pattern. I am using "Local" and have tried different themes including 2025, Starter Block Theme v0.4 and Astra - there doesn't appear to be any patterns - have I missed an important step please? Thanks (great series BTW)

great.... which theme are you using?

I have seen a few of your videos and you seem like a hardcore WP core guy, but I hope you try Bricks Builder and see what you think, like to get your take on it......Have a good day!

I’ve not used WP with ACF for a long time. Last time I used it you needed to either code your own post type or use the custom post type plugin. I can’t believe how much of this you can now do without touching code. It’s great but also massively lowers the barrier of entry. In the old days you had to be quite experienced to knock out work like this. Great tutorial though mate.

Great way to support classic Wordpress.

I bought your custom theme course for the fictional university from udemy. Going well so far but as I started practicing with my own project, I faced a problem hard coding all the html and css. where can I get the templates of general web structures. JS and php is ok to hard code but the html and css are not my strength to be honest

Thank god you suggest ACF and not Secure Custom Fields.. MM

I've learned a lot of WP over the years, mostly from your Udemy course (which is excellent) and now your channel. Thanks Brad!

The best part about your videos is how genuine and honest you are.

Remember if you didn't make photos required, you have to check if the team member has photos or not. so img src tag will look like this src={member.image?.url ? `localhost:1337${member.image.url}` : '/placeholder.jpg'}

Nice video, man! Refreshing myself on node/express. Some things that ran through my mind (which may/may not pertain to beginners or you may have mentioned) - with JWTs, even though they’re encrypted and signed, never store data you wouldn’t mind being openly seen (as you correctly did) because a given token can still be brute force decrypted (though it would take a long time). - rate limiting in your routes is a necessity, with lower rate limits for something like login. This is readily implemented with a middleware. - for logging out, since JWT expirations are short, you can keep a set of invalidated JWT tokens and check against that on log-in (and disallow if the token is used). Then, periodically or on action remove expired entries from the set. It’s a small thing but makes log out definitive. You could also track user ids instead in case multiple tokens were issued if you allow multiple (device) login, and implement a “log me out everywhere” action. - With express, though it’s verbose, giving names to the route handlers eg app.post(myHandler) lets you reuse code and do “internal” redirects without having to send out a 300. - Additionally (and this would be out of scope for a beginner tutorial though it’s not difficult to do) for login and registration, especially on login failure, you’d include a CAPTCHA check. This goes hand in hand with rate limiting. - you could set a cookie no matter what page is visited or use some other method to detect requests weren’t sent from the command line or programmatically. Aside from captcha you can’t guarantee a bot isn’t operating (using things like puppeteer) but you can save computer and db lookups for suspicious requests - finally, you can use a proxy sever (aka “reverse proxy”) to handle a lot for you including making sure no error messages get out and for caching and serving static content. Sorry for the short novel but this is all that popped into my head while remembering working on backends of node web applications!

Brilliant video with a clear and concise explanation. Very helpful, thank you!

Good good

Hey man thank you very much. A have learned a lot.

thanks for the interesting and knowledge full video

Hi, I need to integrate my wordpress website into java spring boot application. please help me in this regard

Sir how do you search? Which resources do you use for web development? for frontend and backend both?

Great series man but for many Kadence lite will be all you need👍

If (you're ok with risking getting cooties) build with wp, else build from scratch you lazy bum!

Brad makes learning WordPress so much fun

I’d suggest starting by creating your own theme from scratch-there are plenty of KZbin tutorials to help you with that. Then, learn to code things like custom queries, hooks, plugins, and post types. Most of the code you learn will be reusable, so it’s a good idea to keep an archive for future projects (mine is inside notions). This will give you a solid understanding of the basics of development. Once you’ve got that down, you can work with almost any theme and customize it as needed. Personally, I recommend Kadence. It works great with the standard WP block and page builder, and I’ve built over 40 websites with it this year alone!

Good explanation of the core WP themes that are customizable using blocks. Looking forward to the custom posts lesson!

I am having problem using localWP,

Hi Brad, i like your videos very helpful. can you also create a video on "how to extend core wordpress blocks"

You're my wordpress and php teacher from udemy 👍

Hi Brad, Is wordpress a great career to pursue in 2025?

I'm confused, didn't you say in an earlier video that you were with A2 Hosting?

Please reupload the remaining parts of this course.

Hi @Brad @LearnWebCode First of all, thank you so much for this powerful and most useful setup. I wonder if somehow we can use this setup to make our website live on the server from our wp local? Just thinking around those lines.

Great guy. I've been following you for a few days and regret not finding you sooner
