The Pros & Cons of the Oshine WP Theme
Просмотров 2 тыс.4 года назад
Hi, I am Shauna. I have been a Wordpress Junkie (amongst many other things) for the past 10 years. And I have developed over 100 sites using Wordpress. Even though I have a love/hate relationship with Oshine, I still use it. If you need help and guidance with your Oshine template, email me at shaunagraham@gmail.com Preview Oshine Theme oshinewptheme.com Buy Oshine Theme themeforest.net/item/osh...

    I am still struggling with this theme for 3 years now... What theme do you recommend for a photography business website?

      @theshaunagraham Год назад

      I loved this theme years ago, but don't use it anymore. My absolute favorite now is Salient and I use is for almost every themed website.

    Have you ever had speed issues with the theme - I'm really struggling at the moment, have used it for several years and it's taking between 8 and 30 seconds to load a page, depending on location etc. I use Cloudflare CDN, tried all sorts... just getting to the stage where I feel I need to abandon OSHINE for something more lightweight to get some speed improvements

    • @theshaunagraham
      @theshaunagraham 2 года назад

      Sorry for you to experience this. Website speed is usually not always a theme issue. I would see if the hosting is quality, caching, weird external script clashes, viruses, and wacky plugins that could slow it down. GTmetrix.com may provide more insight. Moreover, I did abandon the theme a year ago. The newer themes are less hassle and easier to manage and upgrade. Good luck!

    • @theshaunagraham
      @theshaunagraham 2 года назад

      Congrats and Good Luck! 1. Read The Book 2. Keep organized notes in a Doc, with Date and Time, as organized as possible 3. Do the homework 4. Start final project earlier than later 5. Depending on the teacher, you can ask questions on demand. If not, write them down and ask after class or send in Slack 6. Extra: Find a buddy to work with off-hours Would love to hear about your experience after.

And yes, I know job guaratee isnt part of their offer but comparing it with a bunch of youtube or udacity/udemy courses, wasnt sure if the hefty $4500 ticket was worth what you get to learn at Product School. I noticed their access to the portal isnt lifetime, which is sad.

      I never heard of Product Gym until you brought it up. I think they are new. They seem to optimize interviewing based on what they say on their website, which is cool. I didn't take their course, so I am not in the position to provide thorough opinions.

    Hey Shauna, thanks for the video. Just a suggestion for Con #3: most rich text editors have that behavior. If you want to avoid it, paste your original text into any plain text editor (think Windows Notepad), and then copy and paste from there. That will remove all the special formatting and will solve your issue.

    • @theshaunagraham
      @theshaunagraham 3 года назад

      You are correct, but a slight hassle. I will try the Notepad as you suggested in the future. I usually use text editor or google docs. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I usually don't have issues when using other themes like my all time favorite Salient.
