In reference to the comments you received about mixed signals... regardless of whether you like block themes or not, that's the way WP is going, so I greatly appreciate you taking the time to teach it. We don't have to like block themes. But if we're going to work in WP and build themes for our clients, it would behoove us to know block themes -- and again I thank you.

Coding a theme in vs code is a bit more involved than a tutorial can cover. I recommend checking out Brad Schiff’s Udemy course, Become a WordPress Developer Unlock the Power of Code. You can usually get it on sale pretty cheap and it’s worth every penny. www.udemy.com/share/1013mw3@_V-xaQh8S16knZgXN7Ww-bSAT2ab14_OYSiV9IXdLyx8G7FpiJmn7LswtwRg3pCd/

Not a complaint, but just an FYI. Second video in and you have lost me already. Perhaps I am not the target audience for your course but there are a few simple additions that would allow less experienced people such as myself to be able to follow along. And I may not be extremely knowledgeable, but I once took some design and development programs in school so I have an understanding of some things, and experience with html and css. But those courses were so fast paced and so long ago that I forget much of it. Generally I just build websites for myself so I always just work on a live site which I know is not the professional way. This means I am just buying a domain, and putting it up and then editing live. Because I have been doing that for so long, I have already completely forgotten about working locally. I don't know where to begin or how to link visual studio to a local WP. Having a separate video showing how to get started would have been very helpful.

I just found your page randomly and you seem very knowledgeable so I'm going to subscribe and watch some more videos. I grew tired of trying to learn how to make certain functions in wordpress themes, or putting time into building a site to find out that a feature isn't available and not knowing how to create it. I started using elementor, just for the ease of it. But I hate subsciption products. Therefor I am wanting to try again to learn how to customize wordpress themes. From first glance, it appears as though you are making quality tutorials. I'd like to ask upfront if you are affiliated with any of the websites or programs that you are suggesting for use in your videos. I am so tired of spending my time watching tutorials, just to find out that the person is forcing you to use specific programs in order to complete the tutorial. And it is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is bad when people suggest things because they may profit from them, rather than them being the best option. Are you suggesting things because they are the best option? Or for personal growth? Thanks in advance for your honesty and for taking the time to make thorough videos. I know how time consuming it is, and it is appreciated!

Are you having this issue with the desktop version of Pinegrow or the WP Plugin version? Remember, WordPress doesn't know how to read template files that aren't saved, so you'll only see the changes you make inside the Pinegrow interface. Once you save them in Pinegrow, it'll generate the theme files and you should be able to see your changes inside WordPress.

Hi Adam, Thank you for all the well-presented, informative videos. I enjoyed watching and learning from them. While searching for videos about WordPress Block Themes, I came across your "Block Themes From Scratch: Part 1 - Block Theme Essentials" video, and in that video, you mentioned Pinegrow. I had never heard of the program before. I am fluent in CSS3 and HTML5 and accustomed to building web pages/sites using Adobe Dreamweaver, which, unfortunately, is no longer under development. I use several Dreamweaver-specific widgets, so I'm stuck with it. With that said, I've always found it easy and practical. Pinegrow shares many of the same features, e.g., templates, editable areas, classes, media queries, etc., though the interface and process are different. Regarding Pinegrow, I don't know what to think of it. Honestly, I'm not sure what it is. Is it a replacement for Dreamweaver or Visual Code? You were able to replicate what you did in VS with Pinegrow, but for what purpose? VS is free and designed from the ground up to build websites. The Dreamweaver interface looks simpler. I am looking for a way to integrate my knowledge of CSS with WordPress to develop themes and blocks. I installed the Astra theme and purchased CSSHERO, hoping that would do it, but the program left me disappointed. Furthermore, it's not possible to resell any part of an existing theme. So, I started to research Block themes, and here I am. I'm not sure Pinegrow will deliver, but I'll look into it. Thanks again. Mark

@AdamLoweIO 2 ай бұрын
This can be a little tricky since the WP hierarchy (developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/) only has template files for category archives, not page/post templates. To show a different layout in pages/posts you want to create a partial with the category's content section, then stick it in a conditional inside your template. For example, take a look at the single page template from the _s theme (github.com/Automattic/_s/blob/master/page.php). Inside the main loop, they call a partial to show the page content. It would be easy enough to wrap that in a conditional so that a different content template is called if the category matches your category name or ID. Take a look at this stack exchange answer for the easy way (wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/169937) or the one above it for a slightly more complete method.

Thanks, James. If you are using Pinegrow with WordPress, I recommend using Pinegrow to build the theme and blocks, then managing the content using the WP editor (either the block editor or go old-school with the classic editor with ACF repeater fields). If you are doing a very basic site and don’t need WordPress, then Pinegrow has some great CMS-like features to let you build vanilla HTML/CSS/JS sites. I actually find myself doing these a lot for smaller informational sites these days.

I get it. Life was a lot simpler with php themes, and in most cases there still isn’t a compelling reason to go the block theme route. More and more though, new WP features like the font manager are only being enabled for block themes so they are pushing us that way kicking and screaming. (Unless of course you go the page builder route) As for complex themes, you are right that custom blocks are the key to making them work. If you aren’t a react developer, there are some great tools like Pinegrow, ACF, MetaBox, and block studio that makes creating them fairly simple. I personally use Pinegrow and make a metric crap-ton of custom blocks since I hate wrestling with the limitations of the Core WP blocks.

I think I'm officially an "old man shouts at clouds" now. When I see the HTML that the WP editor produces, I see tons and tons of css classes on each tag, and I think "what an unreadable, unmaintainable mess". If I handcoded the same page, it would be one tenth the size, load faster, and more developer friendly (= code is more readable). With fast internet speeds nowadays, perhaps the bigger page weight doesn't make much of a difference. Also, why the hell do we have to type CSS like declaration into a JSON file? You'd think CSS code goes into, you know, a CSS file. We have CSS! And while it's nice to create a page design and styling with just a mouse, I think and experienced front end developer can create the same layouts quicker just by typing code. OK I'll shut up now. I'm just ranting, I know. I will be dragged into this new way of doing kicking and screaming, that's for sure.

Not sure if it's too much car for my needs but we'll see. I'm old and started into dev work back when the web was the wild west and there were only a few of us online. Seriously. It was great.

Ahh, I think that’s your issue. The PG plugin doesn’t support custom tailwind configurations or build processes. It only supports their built-in tailwind compiler.

Connecting to a separate TW build process could get tricky since the theme files aren’t written in real-time and your compiler won’t know which TW classes to add.

Adam, thanks for this fine series of videos on block themes. I'm curious, though--why do you make your inner container a Row block when there are not side-by-side elements, and not just a Group? Is it because the Row gives you the option for side-by-side elements, when you might not know how a design is going to evolve, or is there another reason?

@@AdamLoweIO No worries, Adam...I appreciate the response. I can see using the Row block as the "go to" container if there's a possibility that Flexbox properties will be needed in the design.

The only exception that comes to mind is if the container includes child elements that have to float, such as paragraphs wrapping around images.
