Yes, quite happily. The developers keep adding new features and have a whitelist service recently added. It’s less than half the cost I paid at Cloudways for the same server configuration.

@@SuburbiaPress I was debating on the Life Time Offer, which is back for short period of time. Decided to purchase as I can control my own VPS. I have always preferred it just could not find a good developer or panel I liked. I am careful now what I say as there are some for what reason do not like these developers. I do and like some of there other plugins.

You're so welcome!

Glad it helped!

Then I'm glad I had the info for you. Take care.

It's actually not the theme you need, but the blocks. Kadence came out some time ago to say they would not enable the CSS Grid necessary for this, but you can do it with the free Spectra blocks.

same as mine

Tell me what error message you see and I’ll try to find the answer.

They are saying recovery mode not initialized

Actually, not much impact when I use on my VPS. I wouldn’t use it on a shares hosting plan with limited resources. That’s because the time to send bulk email depends on your server size.

Hi, Darin I enjoyed xC:loud enough that I backed up my Cloudways server and deleted it. That seemed a better method than deleting my Cloudways account. Without server usage, I won't get billed beyond what I used. OpenLiteSpeed on xCloud is definitely faster than Apache on Cloudways. The support is good, but sometimes slow to respond. Posting on their Facebook group to ask for help from other users seems to be a good way to figure things out, or to get awareness of my ticket by the support team there. Using OpenLiteSpeed has some quirks compared to Apache, so expect a bit of a learning curve. Nothing terrible, but worth checking out before you pull the plug on your existing server.

I’m glad you liked it. Be sure to test from the users perspective without the Allow rule for your IP address. Some plugins, like Fluent Forms, require access to the WP-admin and ajax-admin paths and won’t work without it. I’m trying to work with the vendor to find a rule that permits what those tools need without opening the whole thing.

@@SuburbiaPress Thank you, good recommendation, I will try to do just that. Although personally, I'm more of a fan of Contact Form 7

You're welcome!

Thanks. There are times when I add affiliate links in my videos and the descriptions.

Not only is it cheaper, but it’s faster. Cloudways uses the Apache server, which is old technology. xCloud has a choice of NGINX or LiteSpeed server technology. Both are faster and more modern than Apache. You can also use more server vendors with xCloud. Cloudways used to offer Vultr servers, but stopped that when Digital Ocean bought them. xCloud offers Vultr and more.

Thanks. I just finished the video and found out you told us why you switched from Cloudways to Xcloud. @@SuburbiaPress

You are most welcome.

I'm glad it helped. I'm now in my 60's and have been with technology my adult life. If you come across another concept that needs an explanation, let me know and I'll give it a shot.

The easiest way to do it is to Disable the title and then create a new H1 on your page. I like using the Advanced Text block from Kadence, but the default Header block in WordPress will also do it. Then you can style it as you please. Just make sure there's only one H1.

Thank you!

Thank you.

Hi, Anthony. I still need to create an overall video on Kadence Blocks, though I've shown some specific features in other videos. For example, I recently posted one about the Countdown timer in Kadence Blocks, which is one of several blocks in the package. Kadence Blocks are a type of Gutenberg Blocks. A basic set of blocks comes with WordPress, but there are 3rd party blocks from Kadence, or Spectra from Brainstorm Force, and several others. Elementor is a page builder. It's very capable, but its also very heavy and can slow down your website. Gutenberg blocks are integrated in WordPress. They're light and fast. Overall, I think that Elementor and other page builders can do more things, but at the expense of speed. Gutenberg blocks can do most of the things that page builders like Elementor can do. What they can't do is often compensated with other plugins. As a result, you can create a faster website without page builders and still have a beautiful design.

@@SuburbiaPress yeah I have thrive themes but it's bulk and slow. What's the difference between kadence blocks and Gutenberg then? I heard kadence theme is fast which is why I'm going to try it but what benefit do you get from kadence blocks instead of just using Gutenberg. Thx 4 your help BTW

The Kadence theme is definitely fast. Kadence Blocks are a type of Gutenberg blocks. There's a free version and you can upgrade to a paid version with more features. Several vendors sell 3rd party Gutenberg blocks. Beware of getting too many, though. I use Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks because they're fast, they work well together, they do most of what I need to do, and they are relatively simple to use compared to some of their competitors. No coding needed. If I were using the Astra theme, I'd likely look at Spectra for my primary Gutenberg blocks. They're made from the same vendor and work together well. Astra is a great theme, but I found that Kadence is just a bit easier to use. I have a course on how to build a business website using Kadence and other tools. I'm also planning on teaching some live workshops for solo entrepreneurs who are building their online business platform. Let me know if you're interested in knowing more about those things.

@@SuburbiaPress yes I'm interested. Do you have a link?

Hi, Anthony Here's the link to my Online Business Blueprint Workshop. sales.suburbialabs.com/online-business-blueprint-workshop/ This workshop isn't about Kadence or WordPress. It's about what you need to create and do in order to have an online business. A website can be part of it, but it's not a tutorial for WordPress development. My next offer after this one will be an 8-week workshop, which includes hands-on tutorials about the concepts in the Blueprint, including developing a WordPress website. I don't have a link for that one yet, but I wanted to make sure I explain what I'm offering so you can decide what's best for your business. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi, Anthony Kadence Theme controls the appearance of your WordPress website overall. Kadence Blocks, or other Gutenberg blocks, are how you can create a design for your pages and posts. They work well together.

I know that people have used Searchie for a summit before. The element it lacks is a community discussion area, but that’s coming 2nd quarter (roughly). You could have your speakers record a video and host it n Searchie, or you could do live Zoom sessions that automatically import to Searchie. Building the hub is pretty easy. Lots of potential here. Let me know what you require and I can be more specific with my answer.

Hi, Tom. I appreciate the idea, but I’m not the right person to help. I don’t use WooCommerce, never heard of Shop Kit 3, and I use MetaBox instead of ACF.

Thanks for the suggestion. That’s something to consider.

Glad you liked it. I really enjoyed working with FluentCRM and still use it on some sites. For others, I moved over to ConvertKit.

Thank you. I'm considering Kadence Cloud for a tutorial. Not sure if I want to do a comparison with Blocksy, since I don't have any experience with it.

Thanks.

That's pretty simple. Go to Appearance and then Themes. Click "Add New Theme." In the search box, type Kadence. You'll see it in the results. Click the Install button. When complete, click the Activate button.

I'd need to know how you added the store section of your website in order to help you.

You're right, it only has one. The result is that you have to be a bit generic with the confirmation message, and then you can follow-up with something more specific or deliver your lead magnet.

It has a Countdown block in Kadence Blocks. I’ll see if I can work up a tutorial on it.

No opinion because I never heard of it.

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Noted. Let me think about how I would like to see something like that.
