David, thanks for creating this! I've built wordpress websites using Beaver Builder before, but when I was creating another website for myself, I came across the 2020 theme and then that's how I found your video. I spent 4-5 hours implementing all of the above, exactly as you said. And I'm quite happy with how the website looks now. I always thought, you had to use Beaver Builder or Elementor, but just using a free theme and plugins, was quite awesome. Looking forward to browsing all the other videos on your channel. Thanks again brother!
This is the first time out of many times I've followed someone through creating my website that it actually looks like a website and is minimal as I like it. Thank you. From now on, you'll be my first go to.
Thank you very much. I have gotten my site up and going. It is basic. I am new at this. This tutorial was easy to follow and step by step. Perfect for a beginner like myself.
Thank you for watching. Would you use this theme? Let me know below and check the description for time stamps and resources. Have a great day everyone.
Thank you so much! This video was so so helpful and broke everything down for me perfectly. No trouble following along and I was able to apply a lot of the changes as I went along :)
This is simply awesome! I love the site architecture with the blog/post name permalink. But when I implemented it, my site's categories disappeared from the homepage. How do I use the "blog/post name" and still display my site categories on the homepage? Please, I'm just a beginner trying to do this on my own
Hi David! Great video -thank you for sharing your knowledge here. I do have a question, how can I reset the theme back to default or original settings? Is that possible? Please advise.
@David Utke | I am following your video to create my website on WP. SO far it is working but whenever I am typing to write any content in the post or creating any new post or page and it is not updating or publishing. I am getting this message "Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response." Can you please suggest me how to fix this error?
I have a problem setting the featured image as you did in the video. when I change to cover template and add featured image the image is not on all the screen. how can I fix this?
hello, thanks for video. I want to ask something. ??How can I edit my title's type size?? I mean, I want to write "Travel My World" in smaller letters. pls somene answer me...
Hi, I rebuilt my webpage with this tutorial, but am struggling to get the image set for the home page without it replicating on every single page on my site. I can't get it to just be a featured image and show up on the home page. Any tips?
Hey David, how do you make link posts in this theme? I don't see any options to hyperlink the header to an external URL, which used to be really easy and common in other Wordpress themes!
I have watched both of your Twenty Twenty videos, and I am learning a lot! I noticed in this one, you recommend Stakable instead of Themify for building, and WP Forms instead of Ninja Forms for a contact form. Could you please tell me the reason? Thanks!
I use Themify Ultra and Simple for my own websites. Stackable I use because it adds helpful blocks. I like WP form because it’s easy to set where the emails go.
@@DavidUtke Thanks, that helps. I was confused between a builder and a block editor. And thanks for the recommendation for WP form. Easy is good. BTW I've discovered that getting into a new website creation platform (after using Adobe Go Live a couple of decades ago) is not like riding a bicycle. It is like discovering that your bicycle has turned into a jetboat! Big learning curve and your videos are helping a LOT!
Coming this week, it's a feature of my channel where I always make a tutorial using the default WordPress theme. First I have to test it inside and out which takes me a few days to figure out it's pros and cons.
Great video - one question - how can you change the main page titles? Like the About, Hello World, etc. Or even delete them? The font is huge and horrible! Can you do it with css?
Hey is there any way you can help me out man? I tried to enter the breadcrumbs code and seem to have deleted the whole singular template code and I'm having a hard time getting it back. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance.
Hello David and Thanks for sharing! Question, but can a very well known hacker also hack any user account regardless of changing the user name?? I'm just trying to make sense of adding another user account and understand why having a second user is important - I couldn't find any resource to back it up as to security reasons. ???Please check your email.
Hey man, I'm trying to follow your video, but you've made it so hard. I'd love to see how to set a site up from scratch - ie homepage first etc. Also, I followed your advice for the email contact form for the contact page - when I did exactly the same as you every time someone clicks on the boxes it force opens their own email box on their device - this is not great at all. It also doesn't explain WHERE the emails people send go to? I've invested a lot of time in watching your content, but it's really all over the place - It would be super helpful if you revisited some of this stuff because it clearly doesn't work.
Sorry you're having trouble. Timestamps are in the description and it follows from all the backend setup setting to the homepage then other pages in order. It's not all over the place.

It does not open the email client of the user (which I hate btw too). The email it gets sent to is the admin email. To set a different email with WP Forms just go to the plugin, then settings, then notifications, then change "send to email address" to whatever you want. Hope that helps.
i love you its been 1 week trying to figure this complicated website this is my holy grail video now

Thanks for the video, how do I make it mobile-responsive? Thanks! :)
so so helpful, appreciate the insight. How often do you make changes to it? Any tips on staying fresh?

come on people, like this video up! lol. this was so incredibly helpful
Thanks for this tutorial! Is there a way to change the font in the body of the article?
thank you so much for the tutorial!
No worries, stay tuned for the twenty Twenty Two theme tutorial coming soon.
my breadcrumbs aren't appearing after entering code through pryc
Hi! Do you have something like this video but for twenty twenty two theme?
Coming this week, it's a feature of my channel where I always make a tutorial using the default WordPress theme. First I have to test it inside and out which takes me a few days to figure out it's pros and cons.
My ADD NEW PLUGINS option is missing. How to resolve this? Thanks
Are you on a shared web host or the .com version of WordPress?
Tried exactly what you did with the breadcrumbs, but it's not working. Is this tutorial outdated by chance?
My breadcrumb not showing 🙄
Great video - one question - how can you change the main page titles? Like the About, Hello World, etc. Or even delete them? The font is huge and horrible! Can you do it with css?
Why not register domain and hosting with blue host?
Hey is there any way you can help me out man? I tried to enter the breadcrumbs code and seem to have deleted the whole singular template code and I'm having a hard time getting it back. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance.
Follow the tutorial exactly. Breadcrumbs are annoying to setup which is why others who make videos tend to skip over it as it can be complicated.
Done, Thank you sooo much
Happy to help.
thanks it helped my site a lot!
Not working in my wordpress 😭
Excellent tutorial, thanks David. ... One question: Do we need a child theme? ... And if yes, what is the simplest and best way to make one?
Thanks a lot brother for giving your valuable content. It helps a lot
Thankyou so much!!!
thank you!

For the email plugin, I'm not sure what you mean as the short code makes an opt-in box. It does not open the email client of the user (which I hate btw too). The email it gets sent to is the admin email. To set a different email with WP Forms just go to the plugin, then settings, then notifications, then change "send to email address" to whatever you want. Hope that helps.
You don't have to reply David, I found it lol thanks.
