This is great Adam! You’re taking over the WP world with Kadence and Cartflows. 🔥
Good job Adam! I’ve been waiting for this 👌
Just brilliant! That's what I was looking for! Thank you.
Enjoy the theme. I just love it.
Thank you so much for all of your videos. It's now part of my daily routine to watch a few of your videos before bed. Kadence Theme it is from now on!!!
The theme looks awesome, simple and elegant yet powerful enough with good options to customize the appearance. Thanks for sharing.
How interesting! Just in time for a new project and all the decisions that normally brings! I love the way you demonstrate the features. Thank you!
Thanks Adam. Saw your video and installed it in a test environment. It looks and feels good with Elementor and an template I took from Astra. Next production website will have this theme. Thanks for your excellent help to the community. Greetingd from Crete in Greece.
This is just Great! I had searched about themes so much, but none of the other videos could explain each and every component so well.
Amazing and straight-forward overview! Thank you Adam!
Nice job! Thanks for tuning me into Kadence. It's a very interesting theme.
Thanks for this Adam. There's true potential with Kadence. Just came to know about this theme and you've made me want to use it more.
Wow, I can't believe all the options in the Customizer and the ease of using them. Fantastic. Thanks Adam.
Glad you like it. There is a Facebook group for the theme where you can ask for things or get help. facebook.com/groups/webcreatorcommunity/
I love your teaching style, so easy to follow, clear and in total control of the direction of the tutorial, your calm demeanor is reassuring and fills me with confidence. Thanks Adam for keeping our community up to date with all this knowledge, you're my hero!
Wow, what a great tutorial. You are very thorough, as usual. Thank you!
Thank you Sir! That was excellent and sealed my decision to move from Astra to Kadence. Kadence has features that I am presently achieving with plugins so I shall be able to reduce those too. Very well presented, nice and calm no gimmicks and allows concentration on your content. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for taking the time to show and explain all the options, all the way from the download and installation of the theme, to the configuration! Really nice tutorial! A good 5* rating! :)
Thanks.
thank you for another really helpful tut - I have watched this one a couple of times now, once before downloading Kadence and once after. So now I am going to have some fun and customize for a little while until my website is just so!
Hope it works out great for you.
You give amazing instructions. They are easy to follow, and the way your flow and deliver your words makes learning simple. Thank you!
Every tuitorial you made is so clear and thorough. Thanks again
Thanks so much for introducing me to this wonderful theme. I love your teaching style. And thanks for all the other tools you have taught me on your channel. I can build my entire business simply by following what you have taught me. I am very grateful to you.
What a stonker of a theme! I changed my site from X theme to this and its so much easier to work with. Thanks Adam!
Thank you this has saved a lot of time in exploring this theme, and as you say it looks and feels great. Thank you for bringing it to my attention
Hope you are enjoying it.
This is awesome!!! I love you videos. You are so precise and straight to the point. Stay safe!
Excellent tutorial. Really appreciate how much you taught me. I literally spent all day following along with the vid & pausing it and making changes to my site. Thank you Adam 👍
Really appreciate this thorough tutorial. So helpful in designing a free professional looking website for my start-up!
Thanks for directing me here from the comment section of the Astra tutorial. I immediately switched over and I am already gaining from it!
Awesome. I just love the power in this free theme.
Same here. But looking for a way of changing the Dropdown alignment.
This theme is absolutely incredible!! Thank you for sharing!😁
Your welcome, hope you enjoy it.
Adam, Brilliant Tutorial. I normally use Astra (free) but lately , i am getting fed up of lack of customisation particulary in font typography. I think i will love Kadence and am starting a new site right this minute. Again thanks so much and keep up your great work.
Excellent. This one video teaches more about WP than 10 other videos by other. Thank you.
Hi Adam, in my opinion without a doubt the Kadence theme is by far the best theme out there. I can't believe that this theme gives you so much customization for free. Fantastic video tutorial as always 👌👍😉
thanks adam i just inherited a site i have to redesign and they are using kadence and theres so many more options in this theme then i'm used to and this has definitely helped my understanding
Gave thumbs up because this is AMAZING! I'm a big fan.
Fantastic video, love all the video's you made. Keep on the good work. 👏👊👍
Thank you.
Thank you Adam for sharing your tutorials. You are an amazing breath of fresh air, for those of us who are doing our best to adapt.
Great review Adam!
OMG - I am a complete newbie to website design - literally designing/building (I don't even know the correct term) my first website. The learning curve is immense - I have watched so many of your videos and taken your advice. I am going to switch from Twenty-twenty to Kadence.... hopefully it will be painless to switch themes.....Kadence looks like it will do all the things I have been trying to do....
So helpful - very much appreciated!
Impressive theme. And you did a great job explaining its main features. Just when I think I've found my "go-to" WordPress theme (including premium ones I've purchased over the years), another great one like this comes along. But I'm not complaining. :)
And its come a long way just since this video. So many improvements.
Great infomation!!! Thanks
Awesome tutorial! Keep it up Adam, STAY SAFE
Thanks, you too!
Great content Adam , Saved mfantastic, Your Tricks and tips are appreciated, Subbed
A huuuge thanks from Brazil!
Amazing video !!!!
Great helpful stuff... Thanks a lot!
Adam, your are a terrific teacher ! Zillions thanks !
Thank you.
In LIFE, we need CLARITY in our lives. I have seen a number of Kadence videos but just watching this, I already know, I need to move all my sites. Amazing ... you also introduced Envato and how to incorporate it. You have my utmost thanks. Your videos are greatly appreciated. Cheers and Stay Safe.
Nice video! Keep it up!
Thank you.
I use GeneratePress day in day out, but the level of control in Kadence is awesome! @WPCrafter I love your videos. Thanks
your doing great job. thank you very much.
Fantastic presentation Adam. I've already started using the Kadence theme after your presentation on several sites. I just wanted to know if it's possible to import a theme demo template from a previous theme that I was using such as OceanWP?
This seems to have everything that I have ever wanted in a theme. I mostly pay for premium versions, but I always have to sacrifice something. When it comes out, I will be happy to pay for the pro version you mentioned in another comment here.
don't bee foulish the theme is new and risky to stand out for a long time I prefer stay with astra
nice! very thanks
Awesome video, I'm using Elementor with Kadence 👍
This theme looks very nice and interesting
Too many pro options for free
Very easy, simple but rich interfacd
Would like to thank you much for your tutorials
Helped us a lot
Keep it up
Thanksss
Hi Adam, Thanks so much. You're videos are fantastic. Like having a WP coach right at my desk! Tx Jeff
Happy to be that guy for you and the many others that get some value out of these tutorials.
For these 4 Years of Using WordPress, This is First Time, I am Love in With a Theme, Not Even a Premium themes have such options...
Thanks Man, You are Just Brilliant ,
Really You need, Zillions Thanks :-)
Yeah ! Your are Right ! Its such an amazing theme. Thanks to WpCrafter.com to introduce it to us...!
Is this better than generatepress
Fantastic theme. Love it.
Me too, its my new favorite theme.
@@WPCrafter i am switching from astra to kadence... But a little speed issue with kadence since I have installed it before...
Hey Adam,
Love your content!
I'm starting my first WP site and have been doing lots of reading (and watched hours of your videos). About to break ground and move from wire-framing to WP.
2 Questions I wanted to get your thoughts on:
1) How does Kadence compare to GeneratePress? I'm looking for something light-weight, and have watched other videos of yours recommending Tom's GP theme. Have your thoughts about GP changed since Kadence?
2) My current plan was to leverage GP and Elementor Pro to design my site. But after seeing your videos on Gutenberg and messing around with it for a few moments, it seems that Gutenberg would offer better performance due to its "native" characteristic. I have extensive HTML/CSS knowledge, but elementary JS experience, and 0 React knowledge.
Do you have recommendations for individuals w/ different levels of coding experience on which avenue to take to build their website? I think this would make a very neat video idea :).
Thanks again for all your content. Loving it.
Kadence theme is just as lightweight as GeneratePress, near-identical. Yes, the Kadence Theme is more feature-rich.
Also you can totally build the entire website, lighter and faster, using Gutenberg. I would recommend adding the free Kadence Blocks plugins which adds some of the foundational items you will need like rows, columns, advanced headings, etc. It even has copy/paste styles on some of it's blocks.
Really thank you Sir, for bringing new updates. You are always nice. I want you to explain bit slowly. Yours from India.
Thank you Adam for introducing us to this theme, I got here straight from the Astra tutorial. Do you know if there is any support team we can contact ? I am struggling with a couple of features in this theme...
Yep you can get support on their contact form or really fast support in their Facebook Group facebook.com/groups/webcreatorcommunity/
You the man!
The Venn diagram of Gutenberg, Themes, and Pagebuilders is rapidly approaching the image of one circle. Amazing ability for a theme.
Hi, great tutorial video!. I'm having a problem getting the page title background to work, I've tried displaying image, gradient and colour and none of them seem to work. Any ideas?
I've been using Astra Pro and Elementor to build a blog/affiliate website but have been frustrated with the steep learning curve. I just watched your recent live stream where you discussed not needing to use a page builder for beginners and ecomm/blog websites. I've decided to try this new theme instead and use Gutenberg for building - I've already built one site with Gutenberg, and while it doesn't have all the fancy features, at least it's easier to use. I was excited to find this video tutorial on Kadence until I realized you're using Elementor. Will you be doing any tutorials with Gutenberg? I think your live stream might have people making the switch away from page builders. Thank you for all of the help you offer us non-techies!
So, this is THE BEST tutorial on how theme choice influences the appearance of your website, whichever builder you use.
I know that wasn’t your principle aim.
But, what about a video explaining how the type of choices this amazing theme gives you INTERACT with the choices the site builder provides (Elementor would be a good choice). I ask, because as theses free themes get more comprehensive, yet simple to use, there is the potential for overlap in functionality and, consequently, potential for confusion and extra useless code in the background.
Thanks!
Hello Adam and thanks for this new nugget. What's your advice for managing colors with Kadence theme combined to Elementor Pro ? I understand that if we use Kadence Color palettes and then want to use these color while building our pages, we should check 'Disable default colors' on Elementor settings and avoid using specific color with Elementor Widget. Am I right ? And if I am, I don't feel like it's the best way to go. Thanks for any feed back from you or any other people, include Kadence's.
wow this is really good theme
thank you
Adam! stay blessed all the time. I think you have already replied regarding an eCommerce tutorial to Mr. Joost Bosmans, but until it is getting as a full functioning theme, do you think it is time to leave Astra in this early stage?
Another excellent video Adam. In the process of setting up a staging site after watching your video on how to do that. I have a question regarding Kadance. Can you set up difference sidebar content for different category blog posts? I have looked on your previous videos but it seems that it is something you have not covered. Thanks
This was a wonderful tutorial! I am NOT new to WP, but I know only enough to be "dangerous" and to find things still a little daunting. I am currently planning to put a very OLD, HTML-based website into WordPress, and I have been finding it very difficult to find a theme that would accommodate the type of content that the old site has. When I say old, I mean REALLY old, early HTML. Most of the current themes present information in a completely different way, so I'm having to totally rethink the site architecture. Challenging! But this theme looks like it might just be very accommodating and "simple" to work through it all and create a much more modern version of the information. I saw here in the comments that you have a Facebook page, so I have asked to join that page. But I thought I might ask a question here in hopes I can get a basic reply from you.
With a previous WordPress site I created, I learned too late that I should have created a Child Theme of the theme I used, due to all the modifications that I had to make to get the design I wanted (adding widgets and other types of code modifications -- I had help with the coding). Then I discovered that when it was time to update the theme, the site "broke" and my layouts were blown apart. We didn't keep good records of the code changes we made, so it became very dangerous to update the theme. So the site has been plugging along just fine without the theme ever being updated.... for YEARS. It's okay, because the site and the community around it aren't very active anymore. So my question is: Am I correct in assuming that I can probably make just about any kind of modifications I might want to make in my new website with the Kadence theme without having to create a Child Theme? (I still haven't learned how to do that... I just know WHY it should sometimes be done.) It would be awesome to not have to deal with that. When I'm told that there is an update to the Kadence theme, will all my choices that you've demonstrated in this video that can be done stay INTACT so that I can safely make the update?
One other quick question: For my new site, I am giving serious consideration to using the wpDataTables plugin, which needs to be purchased. Can you tell me if wpDataTables is compatible with the Kadence theme?
Thank you, I look forward to your reply!
I swear since i subsribed to this channel my web development skills increased by far. Thank you so much
Happy to help!
Very useful and easy since it is very nicely explained. It's like making rocket science into no brainer. Thanks a lot.
Thank u i found it and subscribed 👍👍👍😂😂😂amazing you are
I am about to build my first site following your videos. With Kadence being so customisable would I gain any benefits by using Elementor too, or how would the two work best together? I hope making a site is as easy as you make it look.
Could you please add Import Export Customization Settings if possible? I want to use this theme on multiple blogs and manually customising appearnce on every blog would be a bit too tedious :P Everything else about this theme is perfect :) This is just too good, i will definitely use it on every blog that i own :)
I tested this using the free customizer import/ export plugin and it worked great.
Based on this video, I started moving some of my sites from Astra Pro to Kadence. Unfortunately, a theme update yesterday deleted the Elementor posts module from my home page. When I tried to restore from a backup, the whole site crashed from a fatal error. Fortunately I was able to restore the site. Today there was a new Kadence version available and the theme update completed with no problem. Now I'm looking at using Kadence Blocks.
how did you recover it?
@@JamalAhmadMalik tracy wisely had a backup, restore it, waited a while and then make an upgrade. this is the reason why I've no rush to click and install updates, I prefer to wait a litle...
Some free themes can be really helpful.
Nice i used their Pinnacle theme many years ago.. What happened with Astra? Love your work!
I'm new to WP and am in the process of creating a food blog. Your channel seems really really good. Will Elementor Free and Kadence be a good place for me to start?
I mistakenly invested in "Soledad" theme which I found very confusing to utilise and customise so have abandoned that for now.
In the future - If I change my mind about Elementor and/or Kadence and want to use another page builder/ theme how easy will it be to transfer the site across? Any gotchas/ pitfalls I need to consider?
Hi Adam! I watch your videos a lot. You are a wealth of knowledge!
Question... Is there any way to add a second call to action button to the free Kadence theme header? Thanks!
Hi Adam, thx for this amazing video again ! 👍 I'd like your advice about a choice I am thinking about : For a e-commerce shop website, with kind of jewelry on sale, (200 products approx.) what theme would you choose between : Kadence / Astra / Customify / Flatsome or maybe another one I didn't think about ?
Thank you again for your incredible well done vidz, helped me a lot 😉
D. D. All would be good choices. But Astra for e-commerce is tremendous. Especially if you use one if their themes. They integrate beautifully with Woo and save so much time. Good luck.
Hello Adam,
First of all thank you so much for such a detailed video and the theme is awesome.
Is there any option I can change the layout of the blog page. Like can be posts be vertically arranged like lists?
Yes there was an option in there for the style of the list. Its in the post archive page settings.
Nice tutorial, Adam. I see you installed Elementor, but the only reason I saw for that was so you could import the templates from Envato for Elementor. Did I miss something, or is that the only reason for Elementor?
LOL What a great tip! The theme conflicts with Elementor Pro, doesn't let you edit pages in Elementor page builder. Tested with clean install in icognito window with latest version of Wordpress, latest version of Elementor Pro and latest version of Kadence
Same here it doesn't support elementor, unable to make transparent header made by elementor
Hey! Thanks for the Tutorial on Kadence theme!
One question:
When clicking on the SEARCH button, I am getting a big black screen with the search box.
Anyway to customize this? Maybe changing it into a search line instead of a full search screen?
Thanks in advance.
I agree with this. Also, the search function is pretty clunky when using it from the mobile menu. The search field opens up behind the mobile menu and you need to close mobile menu to get to the search field.
Hi Adam,
You know, I think, that I really like you a lot and often follow your advices... I even finally (few months ago) decided to jump on HappyThemes (that I had previously decided to put aside) because you told us that you would be working with them and that they had great things coming... I'm still waiting for those great things and so far this is one of my biggest regret: I can't believe how expensive it is for the few things it brings... It's biggest attribute is the copy/paste between sites... well there are at least two other Elementor addons that does that as well... Also, lately it seems you're either running after everything or constantly changing your mind...
That you find a better theme than Astra, well, it's possible (though you praised it for so long...), but not so long ago, you decided to rebuild your site with another theme that was supposedly better, at least for a training site... and now it seems that Kadence will be your goto theme for every site... Okay, I can accept that...
What I don't understand is that not long ago, you stated that themes were dead (based on what we can do with Elementor Pro), and now it seems that you encourage everyone to go to Kadence... Considering that there are some people that follow you religiously and follow all your advices, no wonder why they are confused and now wonder if they should change all their sites from Astra to Kadence...
Again, you know I like you and follow you, and I know you like to be challenged... hence why I speak aloud... but you might want to consider a little more the big titles you're using, considering some people religiously follow you, like I said...
I did a test and switched quickly from my old OceanWp to Kadence as of 29/04/2020 to see the speed on google insight and the result: no big difference!!
I think that since there is a commision behind this theme the level of honest reviews drops dramatically
@@chrisdove3377 As much as I admire Adam I agree on the commission question. No reply regarding lack of 'child theme' concerns so deleting Kadence and going back to Astra Pro/Elementor Pro combo.
It looks really good 👌👍
Yes it is. I have built 3 sites already using it.
@@WPCrafter that's great!!!
Fantastic, thank you! Do you still recommend a child theme or use elementor css to do the extra css if needed?
I don't use them any longer. I put the CSS in Elementor or in the customizer if I need it to be applied sitewide.
Thanks so much Adam. Your vids are great. Question - I am trying to set a different page title block image on each page. I have tried every combination of show/dont show featured image under both the General and Design tabs. Whatever image I use on any page automatically becomes a global background image on every page. Ive been over your video 3 times to see if I missed anything . Do you know if I can set a different page title background image different for each page?
You can have it show the featured image. Then in each page or post, set a featured image there.
Thanks, I like the functionality of the theme. My goal is to move away from page builder and use Gutenberg only.
This is the perfect theme for that because it closely integrates with the block builder.
Nice video, am struggling to wither use go daddy or Wordpress to build my website, please what do you advice and if using Wordpress what theme do you suggest as l am only using it for services, booking and client can book via payment
Hi Adam,
Thanks for the great tutorial, you are the best WP coach. Quick question, can you advice how we can build a mega menu in the header using this theme? Thanks for the help.
MegaMenu is going to come to their pro version.
Hello Sir. Thanks for sharing all this knowledge. I really appreciate. Your tutorial on " Direct checkout" was very helpful. Well! I have question, In my current project, I want to remove/hide "Product description page" in woo commerce. ( I am using Store Front Theme). I dint find any helpful tutorial as of now. Can you help me out ?
Great video, very insightful. Forgive me for asking, why Elementor? We currently use Elementor and wish to bin it, your video uses this why? Is it for all the other functions that come with this or just to access templates? We are trying to work out if Kadence on its own with Toolset will work well enough that we need no other themes, like Elementor :)
Adam, love this theme. One quick question. Can you use Elementor to override the global settings of the theme?
I'd love to know this as well!!!
Thanks for this theme sir. We can edit this website through Divi Builder?
Adam, WOW! on two counts, one the Kadence WP free theme and two on your run through of the options! Wow! Great video. Any chance on a run through of how to modify the "Shopping" starter template for an Amazon affiliate site? Thanks
Yes I am working on an avalanche of full length tutorials for Kadence.
Am planning to use Kadence + Elementor for my gaming daily news website. Advertisement flexibility, reviews and single post flexibility (like different post looks for each category). Is that recommend to use these two? Should I go pro for both or try put free first and upgrade later. Thanks for the great content btw, it really helpful! Subscribed!
Thanks for your presentation! I am experimenting with Gutenberg page editor in lieu of Elementor Pro. Are there any differences between the two when using the Kadence theme?
David.. did you ever get a reply?
@@CeeCeeJames No, I never did. I'm still interested in learning the differences.
