your area could possibly want so without further ado I'm going to show you exactly how to get started exactly how you can create something this spectacular in just one afternoon so let's do this so the first thing we're going to do is buy our hosting now there's lots of different hosting platforms out there but I really recommend then you go with in motion hosting and we're going to tell you why I the first thing is this their speed they are awful lot quicker than anything else like them this means that whatever you're editing your website you're going to be able to do it a lot faster than if you use another hosting program so the price that you pay for in motion you're going to be able to get some great speeds their second plan their power plan has twice the speed of any of their original server which is still faster than other servers out there also with in motion you'll be able to get yourself a free domain name if you haven't got one already if you have it but if you're starting out again can just have a free domain name with them so with emotion as well there's 99.9% upkeep this is incredible for the price that you paid no other sort of this guy's has this kind of level of support this basic list upkeep means that whenever your website's up there any server crash or anything that might just bring your website off like for a point of time is going to be extremely rare with emotion with other hosting platforms it becomes an issue within motion I certainly find absolutely no problems with Myra whatsoever and finally with us here at website book by you you'll be able to see of 25 percent of the park so this is the second price tag which have been showing you in a second but you'll be able to save 25% dark with them so what I want you to do is click this problem here you can click any of the links here and to go purchase in motion hosting so we'll kick this I'm here we are so what we want to do is we want to go into WordPress hosting and as you can see here we've got three different packages now there's three different packages here that will relate to different businesses with here we've got this large package which this is great for small blogs everything with unlimited disk space unlimited bandwidth and unlimited email is it is all across the board for all three packages where it differences is where you have two websites six websites or unlimited websites and the performance goes up goes up as well from 2% two times faster two forks four times faster and the cool comes with a pro level of support as well I find a motion as well as with the best support you can have especially even with these two packages there's online chat 24/7 there yes peers they'll be able to help you out of any point with whatever you've got so I highly recommend that you go with either much of part the only difference is is having slightly more websites T assigned to the hosting platform but also the two types of performance so I'm currently with power I find it works really well for me it helps me get my work done a lot quicker but if launch is where your budget is and we started off that's more than okay so for this order we're going to go through the launch and we're just going to go for one year as you can see that it's it's an extra dollar just two for one year two years it could be five thank you very much this is still an absolutely tremendous price so we want to go here click this link and here we are ready to go so I just came back out here from before we just want to go back in there okay so here we go the first thing that you it's going to happen is it's going to ask would you like to purchase a domain name now when I go with this offered you get a free domain tip so if you don't have a domain name already a dominium is just what you were what's your website to be cold so I'm going to call this website and website for fun times let's see what website sometimes comes up with it's available so we can add it to your account and have our fun times and as you'll see here even though we've got a freedom in them it has added to be in privacy as well to our basket now the main privacy is just basically it's keeping your details protected and I sort of find that there's not really much difference you're really just paying $10 just to avoid a couple of cold calls from different website companies so I'm just going to go ahead and remove that I continue on with my basket as you'll see here it's going to ask for protection again and I'm going to say no sake so with in motion hosting they're going to ask you if you were to upgrade to the power plug and this is one of the this is the earlier package that we saw which has the two times the performance of the six separate websites again I'm going to send those funky two that I'm quite happy with what we've picked so here we go the two things here you've got your data server and there's really not much of a difference between which one you pick for me I just go for whichever one closest to you in the world so at the moment I've got a nice little house in Ireland so Washington DC is gonna be closer for me so I go select that but the really important thing is here we want to make sure that we install WordPress it's completely free and it's just an add-on to what we want to have when it comes to our website so make sure you click that button and continue and this is where we're going to enter our email address and if you as a new customer you're going to want to update this here you're not gonna be asked for a password yet that's going to come in an email later on but what I want you to do is just go ahead type it your email address and follow the on-screen instructions I'll be - just on the other side okay so now we're just going to put in there are details so this is very simple I just need you to follow the on-screen instructions your first name your last name if you have a company meal for your website and for your business a register company name go ahead and put that in if not just leave it like your country this is all information but you should do make sure you get your confirmation email correct and then just admit a failed by what I want you to do is just put website built by you calm this is just to help them understand where you're coming from and then you've just got your billing information down here your card number you expiring your signature code once again I've already done this I'm not going to put my card details in four years old I see so I'm just going to bombed a meteor the other side works again so here we go now we've come to the next stage of our checkup with put on code details and we'll put our email addresses I've just schooled on this page a little so when you come see my details and what we want to do next is just click this agree button that's the only thing but you'll need to do on this page and then just check out now once again I've already purchased my hosting so I'm not going to click this button but I'll show you exactly what happens next okay so now it's time to install WordPress so as you can if you want to go back to the website we've got the text instructions of how to install WordPress here you'll notice here that the first step is from the email you'll receive from in motion click get started and reset your password there so all that's going to do is set your password up and get you ready to go I've already done that so I'm just going to take you straight down to step 3 once you've got your password set up what you want to be here is in there ANP which is the account management panel so what I want you to do is scroll down here go to install popular software and then what we want to do is install WordPress so we've got a password and we want to just go in there okay so now what we want to do is get started so here it will ask whether you want to have a WWE for your website I prefer not to nowadays and so I'm just going to keep that there and what you need to do is just select the domain that you wish to use so we've got so this little bit I'm going to use to set up and we don't need to have anything in the directory we just leave this blank and then we kind of site me in on our site description now this will automatically say my blog or my WordPress press blog so what I want you to do is just give it a site title so for me and web site OOP ie and then just a site description and creating amazing sense so you don't need to put too much thought into this because you will be able to change this in the settings when it comes to building our website so if you're not quite sure of what you want your subscription to say that we can change that at any point all this is going to be it's just what's going to come up here so for example the site me for this page is in motion hosting site description will be the best part here so now what you need to do is create a username and a password so go ahead and create a username and a password this is what you were used to to log in to your WordPress so I'm just going to hide my password here so we have a head and then we're just going to have I'm an email address so we can just keep that at ethnical you can scroll that back to end whatever your name is for example select your language then if you would like to if you would like WordPress to lock out after a certain amount of time for example you forgot your password and you wanted to lock out after five times go ahead and check this button or if you prefer not to that's okay and I want you in what to do is just type in your email address and for the instructions to be sent to you of how you're going to install WordPress or how you can log into WordPress we've got a couple of advanced options here and they'll also do with Auto upgraded WordPress Auto upgrading the plugins you can check these I prefer just to leave them unchecked just because I like to have a little bit more control sometimes I don't want to update something until I maybe would actually sit down and read exactly what's going to change and if I have to do Eddy and gave up the spot so only those unchecked backup location this is another great thing about WordPress as I about in books it that the the backup hosting is completely free so if something does go wrong and you hit the delete button by mistake you need to get some things back a quick contact to them and they'll be able to help you out so what I want you to do is click install now I'm actually just going to change the website for the purpose of this to website install and so just after we've hit install you'll see that the data is starting to install there and we're all done so all you have to do is check your email to all your information will be something there and then if you were to login just click this and this here and there we go you'll either have to log in with your details for the first time map or might just come up like this so there we are and now we're ready to install WordPress and now we're ready to install our theme so now what we're going to do is we're going to purchase stack and if you come to the page on the website and the link is directly below just be about stack I'm going to tell you all about the information that stack has to offer everything a budget and lots of different information different testimonials real-life testimonials from real people saying just how grid stack is and this entire website is built with it so you can see it's just so clear it's so crisp and it could not be easier to use so what I want you to do is click the link of saying get stack nice and then what we want to do is just buy it from here so if we click the buy our products you see here the regular license says 59 there's a little bit of v80 and charged that so it goes up to $70 Eddie all you have to do is fill out your name your details your payment methods then what I want you to do is click Save and continue what you pay for it you go to your download section and never download all files and documents where it comes to stacks so the reason why I'm not showing you this is because I've already downloaded stacked a tidy order there's no need for me to pay for it again so so there we go so and straight to the website all the information there and download stock for you so there you go go so there you go go to the website there all the informations there to get this incredible product so now we've come to the dashboard of WordPress the first thing we want to do is install the theme that we bought so we want to go into your parents we want to go in the seeds and then whatever it is add a new theme so we will be installing stack which is obviously or we bought from a Novato so if we go here to upload a theme and then we want to choose the file now the files sometimes don't come up as v 1.0 it does in the file what I want you to do is actually if you're using a Mac especially unzip the file go in here and then click the stack WordPress theme zip this is the file that we actually want to upload so we click that I've install now it shouldn't take too long you can look at the bottom of your color and once it's done here I'm back in this file installing the theme I various themes installed successfully so what we want to do is now activate this thing so it's activated and then this is the theme that we are now using so as you can see stuck here is currently active see now the next thing that we want to do is install the plugins that come with stack now there's a couple of different plugins here and we can do this quite easily by just going to begin installation process now all these plugins are by highly recommended to house and and give the install and everything apart from visual composer this is actually one thing that we don't really need and this is because we're going to be using variant pH builders now you really get a choice of what are the truth that impede builder is look the demonstration is going to be and I'm going to be showing you how to use the internet so ferry and page builder so visual composer it's not really needed for this so you can sell if you like give you the option later on I'm just going to leave it so we've got to install several of those ear plugins will click never will is and click all the ones we want where we click install from the drop down beneath and apply so as this is going you'll start to see each installation will happen individually so first second third fourth fifth so just keep an eye on that again don't be clicking off the page you're going go into any other sites a lesson all our plugins are installed plugins are installed you get confirmation of this with this dial here always deletions and activations have been completed so what we will do is go to return to required plug-in installer now this is we in commerce and at the moment we don't really need to set this up just yet this is a milk we will be a little bit on later on and so forth I'm going to just say partner and we'll skip set up just for a moment until we're near the end and you'll have a bit more idea 15 okay so all our plugins installed once again visual composer will tell you and to install we're not going to do this and then if you work to updates I've extras coming straight away from in battle and this is a really good thing that I think you should actually do all you do is you login you they will be updated the API that you've been given and just going to focus to the devil not going to do this noise and it's it's definitely something I would recommend you do okay so now we go down to our plugins and we just want to make sure that all our plugins have been not only have a bidded it's successfully installed we will make sure they are currently active so the works that we need which are highlighted here these are all active especially very page builder so that's all good well and you'll have a couple of these ones here that are despairing Hello Dolly at the moment we don't that's wrong but we don't really need any of them and so it is really them deactivated for the moment and we're going to be getting the process okay so the next thing that we want to do is called input demo data so as we're in visual composer what your status is if you don't if you don't get a wink demo data none of your images will actually show while you're editing so what we want to do is install this poem and basically it's this one here we do have visual composer here but we're not going to be using it but stack with the variant demo data and we will input so yes we want to import this and so a little relief importing these with okay now that's all done so we've installed that and order things with the demo data it will basically give you a whole range of pages that weren't there before if you've kind of had a like I will talk you through how you go through those individually here we are let's start to build your installed I'm ready to start building this beautiful beautiful church website so what we're going to do first of all is just a few general settings just to make sure that we're getting things a little bit easier making things a little bit easier for ourselves so I want you to go into settings and click general now here this is where we have the option to Miam our site so when it comes to your church and this is the best the best thing to do here is just me and your church so so the all of this I'm going to name my church Life Church and with the tiger house I'm going to call this I'm going to call this M welcome a very just you can call this whatever you like and whatever whatever you feel like and whenever it comes to here and this is just which way you have the date for example I know you guys in America you love having your deity the other way around for the rest of the world so whatever your timezone is as well make sure that you hit that and okay so now what I want you to do is go down here to permalinks now the way web pages are set up now you can either be set up in many two different ways the best way to do it I find is just to have a post name so what happens is whatever you create a website for example I've called this entire page of the join us page and as you can see the hyperlink here is just website condo value so it's last join us and so basically any time you create a new page would press those and that's going to be the way it's going to create a page for you so keep everything else as default there and then we are all good to go so save those changes so now we're going to need to start building our website so to begin with our website we're actually going to start doing a bit of what we call backend work so we're going to do a little bit of behind the scenes were performing it into the lovely stocks and designs and we're going to start with actually creating our staff members page now as you can see here we've got just for the purpose of the demonstration we've got senior pastors with a bit of text about them and Technology our assistant pastors and these can be anybody who you want 10 evenly fancy and then everybody else here we've got as a a just a generic staff but once you click on one of them you know it's going to come up with with a text about them and so you can get all your staff members to do this if you want if you prefer not to have anything about them and still have their faces that's fine too and so I'm going to show you how to do this now so what I want you to do is go here to the team members so we go with the team members now as you can see because we've imported stuck we've inputted in although demo data there's going to be a lot of things that are already here you should be seeing all these people as well it should have been installed with the theme that you've uploaded so okay two different ways you can go about this you can edit the ones that are already there to be on Sophia I feel it just gets very messy over time it's much easier to be organized at the start so what I'm actually going to tell you today is delete all of these so if you select off by just clicking mystic here move the trash away with this and then we go here with the team categories and that's not gonna be some calories area that isn't so now what we want to do is create our own team categories now as you can see from the website we've got our genetic staff down here this is anybody who's connections pastor admit our youth pastor and then we've got a bit for our senior pastors and our system pastors now you can do this as well you can do this as many many people as you want if you would like to have a little bit about everybody you can do this but I'm going to show you how you break those things how you break those sets of people into three categories so first of all we're going to have our staff members as a hook and you'll see why I'm getting you to clear the staff members section because we're actually going to be using team members for something different later so what I want you to do is create staff members here so that's going to be what's called up here into category so we would need to create our three different categories so we have our senior pastors but we want to parent this to being a staff member just so it has a little bit we also need to have our assistant pastors and once again we create the parent to be a staff member and then we just have general staff now might seem a bit hostile obstacle and just general staff we know that your staff members are a lot more important from that because they're just for the purpose of this demo this is exactly what we're going to have if you want to have a little big section of your youth posture you can go ahead and create that as well for the purpose of the demo I'm just going to show you how to do this with three so now we want to go into your team members now as you can see there's no team members currently so we need to add a new team member so here we go so our first team member so this is going to be our senior pastors now just for the pose of this I'm just going to copy and paste everything over so we've got Tim and Sara and you feel free to go ahead copy and paste if it just helps you set up if not you know and you can remember exactly who your senior pastors are go ahead and start with no names in by so what I want to do is click Tim Sara here whatever we do is just select senior pastors and don't select staff members just senior pastors for the moment then for their job title we all could in your pastors this work you will others here so this here is where you select your file and upload it into WordPress for the demonstration of this actually just gonna show you of how to upload absolutely everything you can you can need so I've got all my pictures here and what I want to do is just select all of these and then seriously having to to jump in a night and while everything is loading so it just saves me a bit of time and I don't have to jump in and out and find each file absolutely every single time but they want to upload it so this is why I would say take a bit of time get your photographs uploaded so now all the images are loaded here so we can flick through and find the one that we were looking for and so this was our senior pastors now this is obviously just a generic image it doesn't have to be quite as Shutterstock looking as this but I'm sticker your picture of your senior pastors in here and then whatever you're looking to write as a bit of a blurb about them or maybe something that they've written I would highly recommend something that they've written I feel it just becomes a lot more personal to your views so so for the purpose of this devil I'm actually just going to put some some random text here just for the layout demonstration but by all means you type what you would like you know live it's there a little title there so with the titles for all our staff members let's keep them consistent going to make these headers links these are all just going to be paragraphs so there's little certain shortcuts that you can do if we get used to them for a Mac for example and I'm just going to click away so I can show you more clearly for the tablets tuition of how to do things like this so let's just go through the check we've got our title up here so this is who they are and I've been about them and what their job title is their featured image mixture they're clicked into senior pastors and that will become a lot clearer later on I just kept the social icons I'll say similar and like this here so let's go ahead and we want to publish that so now that's published you can see here you'll get a little notification and what we want to do is we were we were to add our next team above so let's go in and see who we've got next we've got and Tom I'm Jin so again for the purposes I'm just going to be copying piercing Bella text and once again we want to say some kind of a point about see this may have changed so we will actually make this a heading 3 and give it consistent sometimes it's good to just get a little note of everything that you've done so once again so this is Tom and Jill these are Gentiles our assistant pastors so we want to click that mixin that stick or a color title and there we'll have a system pastors and let's select our featured image for system pastors there and again I would have something quite as romantic as this I still hope that again use your own photo and there we go what do three four five we've got everything right there and we want to publish and what we want to do now is for our next category so this is our general stuff so here we've got jewelry who is going to be our connections pastor so once again I'm just going to use all the text that I've already done for the purpose of the demonstration there are text there let's make this I having three again now the thing is with your headings what your settle down is basically the larger the heading one that's going to be your site title your heading 2 that's going to be your pH title heading sleek that's your kind of your next title and so on and so forth so you'll start to see that they actually all pre indexed and font size so I'm going to show you how to change those are the ends but for the meantime this is we just want to just keep everything consistent so as from clear so heading so there we go and we want to have a featured image so this is Judy she is our connections pastor and then what we want to do is we just want to click general staff and so that we've got our title we've got everything there that we need and we want to publish that now as I said you can do these for as many as you want and you have as very staff members you as you want you have as many of these if you would have to have their own blog section I recommend the new create your own category so we can just go ahead and add a new category asking how to change your heart and you want to have your video director and you want him to be a part of that then just select staff members add it to the team category and there he is so solid it is going to be listed under staff member just whenever it seems to be whatever you create in category the very first time it doesn't but that will just be a new section and so I want you to so if that's what you want to do and you want to create I've just edited Julie's for that so that's actually they have a mistake on my part but if you wanted to then create a new team member and then came your media director we've got a stick Julie back here in general staff did that but so for anybody that you want to have their own section you're going to need to make your phone cut away for for that and you'll see why in this next section everybody else just stick under general staff so for the purpose of this demonstration I'm going to actually leave you and to do that by yourself as I said just keep added a new member and just make sure that they'll click under general staff so where you go enjoy so here we go here are all our staff members and so we've got our four general staff assistant pastors and our senior pastors all listed in team categories so what we want to do now is we want to but we want to actually create our pH 9 so what I want you to do is go to all pages now once again as we saw earlier stack inputs all this information and all these pages here that to off idea we don't really need so you can go ahead and edit them individually if you want but I think the best option really is just a select all and move to trash and we're just going to start from scratch so I want you just to click through everything just move absolutely everything to trash until you've got no pages left whatsoever so I'm just gonna read so I just got a pause this video until and we've got no pages left so there we go no pages left it talks us to create a new page so we'll what we want to do here is go up to new and books and so we want to call this staff members here so since we've already good in a category we may as well get head members now will collect your text is for example in the habits this is what's going to show up on the menu so make sure your spelling and grammar is correct things being capitals where the legal capitals it's a good good time to get into that is don't get into that with them so what you want to do here is just click publish so all we need is the title so the page is published remember what we're going to do is large variant page builder so we want to click that and this is going to be the start of us starting to create what's called the front down this is going to be what people actually start to see and in our websites so this is the exciting stuff this is where it gets lots of lots of fun so you'll come up with this appear this page will come up here and I just want you to you can either click talk to again or click to the side and that will get rid of that so here we have our compass as you can see nothing there just yet we have our title we have our mehndi we have images logos which are going to go here for the meantime I actually use what you just really scared or look like that and we can do this really easily by just clicking this X are going up here to the navigation if it just click new navigation that will just start to clear everything away and just it just means that it's not distracting for the moment will clear all this off at the end but for the meantime we just want to get there will happen to love what we're doing down first so what I want you to do is add new block now as you can see there are lots and lots and lots of different new blocks that you can stick it so and whatever we want to do we could stick in mesm easily so if you ever need to get rid of a block by accidentally ticking the wrong thing just either school up here or click this button here I'm just getting rid so all these here will be the blocks that you've added or if you want to add a new one you just scroll down here now there are about a hundred and twenty thousand on box here well maybe a bit minute exaggeration so we actually need a way of just filtering through so it sport released a custom rest rest measly force so if we go in here and just see actually what page is going to look like so here we've got just a lovely hello here a background image staff members get to know our incredible team so what we were here are we just click this drop-down we click covers your sub see lots and lots of different covers that we can start to use for our website now for this one I'm going to use cover one with text so I want to click that in there and I shall see it just instantly goes onto the board and what we do here is by just clicking here we have a of different options which allows us to to play a log so we can align the text to a different side if we the ferry would that way that way you know if you're left-handed or right-handed discriminate there we go we can do what's called a parallax which is where the image basically stays stationary but your text will will target I have AB actually new stick for anything in this website as so as you can see the the text stays with the image as well if you win a parallax it the text would move up but the image would just stay the same so you can turn up studying arm power player like with it and you'll see exactly what it's like and here you can use inverted colors so with our image we've actually got what's called an image overlay so it's just a bit of a darker and cover over the original image so we can change that to whatever we want if we want it to be quite dark we can't we want it to be completely off but if you want to have instead of white text on a black background you want to have black text on a white black black background we can do that based on easily so quite easy to do there and so for this we're going to choose our image now as we saw earlier I've already updated all our images into the library so what I want you to do is click the image that you would like to use and there there's our convention and I want to make it a little bit darker just so that we can see our text and then we can adjust the section height so if we want to be quite slim we can and just you can always score up and down here even though we've got the one Morgan so and when it comes to appears is a little design tip is you never want your your first box to go past the point of the window so once this goes down here and there's not actually something for you users to see it doesn't really make it very clear that easy to school I'm show you another the second so it's always good to go for just where there's a little bit of a space between here and here because it just shows that there's another window and your users will just get used to the schooling as to walk instead of clicking through all the time so I quite like that to be there and so I want to go and just close this I have to change the text really simple you just click so as you can see there just come click over text that you want to change so here we want to let's call this staff members now as you can see my Fox is quickly just changed into your paragraph which means that the text is going to be quite small so we want to change this to a pH header so as I said this is the one that you want to use for site header header so this is going to be the very front page so for other people starts we want to use section two you can use a section too or you can go Lea section what if you really foxy I'm just going to keep it nice and consistent Cooper section two and for this but then because that's not quite as big as the first really amounted at school that died ever so slightly so as you can see this button here now I don't have this button here I'm the original website so it's quite easy to be able to remove that easy to remove this so just by we like to click it on it we can just right click remove I've actually it's completely gone and as you can see a little bit of a subheading for this one so let's just click here again and if you thought you could add as much text here as you like and so what we have get to amazing EP so you can obviously change the caps where you put three caps and everything for the sort of what I'm just going to keep it like this so get to do our bidding team let's just make this a lead paragraph and whatever use first longer you might just see that your box looks a little bit like this if you want a few more options just click this box here and lead paragraph is just your paragraph setting but it just gives you a little bit of a slightly bigger font to use so there we go so there's our first Docs there so now what we want to do is start to add our different team members so as you can see we've got all our covers all our sections here so you want to scroll down into team we've got three options here we've got team one with his circles and squares here and we've got teams single so what we want to do is we want to add that now as you can see that GM's a creative director is the first to show up but remember that's not actually what we want to show up we wanted see your pastors to themself so easily done so this button here is going to become your best friend after a while so whatever to do is just click here and I want you to go down to all categories and what I want you to do is click senior pastor so this is going to be where I've seen your pastor's mouth come in so we can choose and this is why I said if you wanted to make a different category floor like are really a director for example with the Fluxus I really won't do that but this is where if you want to choose if you want an individual this is a really good way of doing it so senior pastors let's click that there are this is where and we get to play about the color and we're so snuggly and again I will show you at the very end of how we can change the colors to be slightly more so a different color but I actually really recommend keeping with a black and the black the gray of the white I think it's just it just makes everything so clear so simple actually it's a really really beautiful style so the fact that we want to show and we just want to keep that there's one because we've got one of the categories you can flip this either way if you fancy but there's a senior of pastors and there will be order doing is we want to add our next ones so we want to click keep single again so now it's loaded up we'll forget James is there we don't really want seems to be there with what our system pastors again as I said if you have more categories just and replicate this or as many as you want now from the original we had Timothy over here and as you can see the colors a little bit different and we filtered around let's just mix them so so much easier just by using stuck just flip around change to the color Bob's you're good there it is and so we pulled up there and now we just want to add the rest of our team so if we click into our team this will load here's the rest of our team now notice that Tom and Jim and Tim Sarah they've been included in this but actually we don't really want them there this is why we have the category of general staff so if we click general staff that means booking them ones that we've selected and that will be there so we've now got all our staff members that we've created obviously you can create as many as you would like if you do have more than six just choose list as memories you've got that it's like Tim it's 19 go for it obviously we've already created four so we're going to show forth but it's expecting if it's 20 that it's 20,000 if you're getting really into this just go ahead and create whatever you would like so there's our first page completely done graphic that was only 1012 minutes maybe absolutely no time at all so if you want to just continue to do this for any of you the rescue church pastors go ahead and replicate it but that's our staff members page completely done so the main thing is that we see if this so we just go here and we click see if and really get into the habit of time and because whenever you you can go into the settings and turn over audio see aesthetics and it will only see if every minute I really recommend but you just get did a habit of any time you first appearance regardless of the Odyssey of just click Save straightaway and get back into that old-school habit so now what we want to do we were first of all just view the PHP and I just want to show you just that you're clickable links will will work quite nicely so this is exactly how your new website is started to the Collodi so that we have everything if we want to collect gems there he is now these will change a little bit later on from a fee to accept we're going to do but there you go so there's only other information but you've put in there about her buddy alone so good so the next thing that we'll actually going to do it is we're going to go in make our church teams so if we go into our home page what we have are well I'm Carl injections this is basely our church week so we've got information about the church weekly support groups like life groups or connect clips whatever you call them are now fun for all the edges now the way walks are going to do this is we're going to go back into our website vision save this pH you'll forget about that we will go into the backend of WordPress again you'll start here we refer to this side as the front-end if it looks a bit like this this is going to be what's called the backend now just a little whatever you do create a page and you've used variant it's really important that you anytime you'd edit something you just go straight and launch variant what do you press this button everything that you've already created will be deleted so this so variant is pretty much a bit of a subside override so what we want to do now is create a new set of team members now chemically speaking what were by the grid aren't members of our team but we're going to use the exact same format that we used earlier so I want you to go back into team galleries and this time we're going to call this church week now I just found it so this was just the easiest way I could remember having this sort of hole and category you can call us whatever you want so basically it's all going to be something within the church week and then into staff members so what we have for church week well we have our church we have life grips we have some for all ages so I want you to go ahead and create those three categories so we have fun for ages and we want to pair it to the church week and then what we want to have is our church again parent church week our final one was live scripts again church week there's a new category so these are going to be what we work this is going to be what we want to create I'm going to go back into team members and once again we want to start creating some new teams so then we would forget all s there are staff members we've done that we don't want to touch it we want to start creating our church week so this is going to be our first kids is there going to be a fun for all ages so make sure you get your text right and this is going to be basically all what using is this for it's just so that we could use this navigation tool here so there are other wise doing this I find that this is actually the most the best organized way it might just seem a little bit obscure as a little bit long I just think it's the most aesthetically beautiful way you're going to be able to do this and it just makes everything a little bit late a lot if you ever go and edit any of these things all this information the start just gives you a little bit better better hand so fun for all ages we want to go and hit when I click fun for all ages and whatever job title is this is just going to be us subtitle so some of the fun for all ages only long I just had meet people of your sphere of life again you can call this whatever you fancy but even though it's not strictly a job title we're just going to use a start and then what we want to have is our featured image as well so our featured event we had just a lower teenagers that we and another young adults gathering there we go fun for all ages let's stick that in there so that's going to be a feature that which works again the social icons going to remain exactly the same as that we're just getting published that so fun for all ages is created I found the next one we have our life boots so we want to once again new life good and notice actually that we are just leaving this blank for the moment and I'll show you why later on and it's close we're going to design always at the front them so anything you put here is just giving it a little straightaway so our life grips and live life in weekly smell good so this is any connect tips you have anything that you have going on over create our left grips set a featured image we go I could set let's publish that and a final one is our church Shh are we like down here oh now just notice that I seem a little mistake I hit up to it and but I didn't actually hit add a new team member so make sure that if we do that so you go and change it so life clips this what we want to call this we probably we didn't click update so nothing will have changed but I just like a little bit of extra control and then we'll be able to create is ossified over here so this is going to be our church now I've only organized these in certain ways because this is kind of how I see this category be in church week I know a lot of churches have a lot of other different things that go on during the week such as courses heroes you've got all the courses and stuff or manage courses you know you can do your whole brother category and just have another courses button and then we just worked it comes to editing vests instead of having three we have four or if you've got other things you know sport teams you've got other things either the board you have this is this is a really great place to out so once again for the purpose of this I'm just doing three and but I recommend anything that goes on within the life of your church through the week you go ahead and you create a teen category fort and then you create the pH fort here so here we have is our church and we have this lovely image right here right church dumb published so once again believe it about that is everything stuff ready to go it's only time to just then start actually creating those pages now we're actually going to stick with team members and where things like where you here is fun fluently all the ages now I broke this down into different categories once again and I don't know how you do you're smuggling money through each page one by one so our church page is just going to be a single page I was just going to have everything that you have about your church or other one things so this is a what to expect you know is that there's a certain clothing style that you would prefer your guests your congregation to wear and this is a great place to buy the day and things you know what type of music you have just little little tiny paragraphs here just to be able to give people a little feel and I believe a picture speaks a thousand words which is why I absolutely love half imagery in all my websites and so the next part here is values and so I've separated it into this here where you've got your four different values that you would like to stick in I was a really good way for people to get a clearly clear idea of your church our plan and against details of where you started from where you are by I'm you know what is the future holes and so it's again it's a really really good way of doing and things like that here we have our life trips now I just put life groups again and the way my church with these life groups work is we were do it all via Sunday mornings so if you come and the church of a Sunday morning we have a connect with board and we have connect with pastors who are able to and get people planted we also do have a contact number this isn't it but this is just a way of just saying well life groups are high to get into life groups how you know if there's a contact number it's necessarily contact hours you can even add an image of who to look out for maybe there's a welcome team leader that you feel that you would like to show here or your connections pastor something that they can actually look out for whatever they turn up over Sunday and our final one is a fun for all ages so if we actually just go back into the home page and if somebody was to say click on fun for all ages it would bring them to this page here where once again we've got yet another breakdown of three different categories so if somebody was to go into younger dogs here then we've got all our information here of what what is that one of the different events that you have and that basically a hyperlink that will go straight here that's page I'm going to show you how to add that in a little bit later on so as I said when it comes to our fun for all ages we've actually got yet another dog that we would like to add so this actually means creating a whole nother set of team members you're going to be sickeness but that I swear this is the last one you have to do so what we will do is going back at the team calories okay we've got fun for all images as a parent category so fun for all ages now we're not actually going to make a weekend specific page so this is what you can actually just and put a P for parent or parents just so whatever you're adding whatever when it comes to later on and you're actually selecting something for a certain thing you're going to be selected this one or not this one this is just so that we grouping and I'll show you why you'd a lot because this is just giving so that you actually select this work for the page but this is just a regroup your you have adults your kids your yes any anything again for the demonstration I've already done three but if there's anything that you want to create just put under this subcategory and what are the things is as this is all other subcategory it's just it's really good way to sort of keep this menu depending on our homepage separate so far for all ages parent so we're going to make that as a team category it's not going to have a parent and then we're going to create our and different categories works again so kids this is going to be under some fold it is perfect so think that as a category there are geese footvolley just parrot and young adults from college code there we go so what we want to do is go back at the tea peppers and we want to start creating these three and these three pages here so what we want to do is once again are you and you're going to start it at the Haggadah specifically kids so we find our fun for ages parrot select kids photograph I've got the still photographs here I've am CRC kiss programs once again you're using job title just as your sub header a once again you've got your you've got this you've got this selected kids we've got your title we do PD anything in here so we're just going to go ahead and submit so it will add me yes from all we just parent youth is going to be five Fridays and are we just for select a cabbage once again so rich for this and three young people walking there we go inside this I want to publish this and there are yeah metals as well so 501 yep adults the adults as I said make sure you get up into the parent and if you have any other so the demo I'm just showing you how to make three different categories just to get you in that rhythm you can make as many of these as you would like so we've got this lovely image here our limited after parties and networks so this is likely the last of these that will never actually made so we're actually now going to do very little back work now we're going to come back to these pages but for the meantime we're now gonna we've got all the backend information that we need for to create a fun for all ages all our categories alright each kids connects and AP edges so now what we what it is we're going to start creating them so we're going to create our homepage first so I want you to add a new page this is going to be home and just before with outside publish it first just before we launch very page builder I want you to come down here into settings I want to go into reading now basically WordPress will ask you for which is the pH you would like to be a front page it automatically selects the latest posts page so this will be your first blog or the last piece of beard but what we want is a static page so the very first it's going to be a home page and we don't that the move about post page will covered without ever we start to set up our blog but for the meantime hopefully it is going to be the one that we want and that's exactly what we want to do and so search engine visibility here and this is something words there's a checkbox here to discourage search engines from indexing this site we want to really make sure this is object unless you want to be off Google and you don't want to appear in search engines then click this box but if you do want to appear in search engines keep this i'm tip so i'd like they appear in search engines so we're going to see if this and our home page is going to be where our domain is going to go straight to so we want to go into home and typical you can if you've spelled everything wrong or you want to change it you can if you'd be the set parent page if needs be always just make sure this just says default template that's the only advice i'd give you there for any of this and it's already published so you can't just update that but to say 'pete going straight in the page we just want to edit with variant page builder so we're going to click this it's going to take a straight to our home page so now here we go we've got a blank page ready to go again as you can see we've stuck we've built a new page we still got all the headers and footers we can go back into here and just click pages go staff members page and our home page for the meantime we can just go in here click this X and let's just for a moment to get rid of navigation so you can get rid of others if you want just so that you don't have that and everything lying around there but you can keep it use the group option if you want we will change this later arm and you'll see how you know these buttons will change into looking like these so here we have our home page and once again I'm just going to talk you through it so and we will have our logos whenever you and have your church logo this is where you're going to put it but it's not be just yet and so here we have once again a big hero image and so what we want to do is add this it so so what we want to do is go into add blocks we want the tip covers once again and we're going to use the same cover as we did for the last page that we did which was cover text work so if we click that we go back here into this button here we were select our image so for this one I decided for the demo a sketch in New York so this is where you can choose a picture of the place that you are in and you can choose a picture of your church building if you've got one and you know whatever whatever whatever you business to choose and so I go back with this one here there we go it's usually I'm using quite big image files for this so it's going to be a wee bit slow and as I said to your logs use compressed images as well just make your website learn so much quicker especially on mobile and it'll help you and just be able to to do everything a little bit quicker so here we go so here we have our title so we want to so this is our site title this is the big one so what we want is life church you know what just for the purpose of this life church ever I see so there we have it knows that and as you can see from little here actually had welcome to read church again a little bit of a subcategory you can do this as you want so as I said just click the text go in here and yeah welcome to this did not be a heading one we want this to be a lead paragraph we can save that so we can do whatever we want there and and what we can't do is if we really really want to we've although for for the main page I decided not to use and a buck by decided to stick something else in there but if we really wanted to have this as a link to one of our pages we could do that really easily so just so the purpose of this demo I actually might show you how to just have this Jurgis button right here just so it's something that people see so we're going to wit and we will have to come back to look whatever we've actually created out join us and so join us I always like to put a little asterisk if I have a good period a hydrolic just yet just so I don't forget so what we will do is we want to make this a little bit darker just a step text stands out a little bit I cry like that there and if we really wanted to we can put the parallax back on they go well for this one we can choose inferred closer feel you want into and it doesn't really stand out too well so we're going to go back to the way things were then we haven't answered the first part of our page done and now we have this little text box here so we've got different civil ways of solar so you know these are for service times that we have X dearly well actively every Sunday is the for service tags that have some bit on some base so what we will do is add this in so you'll find this just under titles so a little bit misleading it's this very last word at the bottom so you'll come here try this tight text title so what we will do is just click you're seeing that if your screen worked always automatically scroll back to where you valid it but you can see that here just by using this here so what we were do is scroll down here and as you can see stack is already created some things for us now for the first part we can easily just type in it by this kick in here so what did we have we had during a serviceability we had a copy of this join us every Sunday slum actually lost go ahead boo don't do what I just did there is so and I would just recommend that you just type away so join us every Sunday long as you can see that it's pretty hard to type in here and anything actually this well it's impossible pretty so what we do here is we actually add up everything here everything is just done from having a call back in between something so you can have a level 30 comma 11:30 color for color and and six cover so that's how you do that so that basically anything that you can work done you can use this for so many different things you know if you wanted to talk about the different clips that you have commit or different worship you know come join us for worship anything you want you can use that form I'm going to use it for service times and what I want to do is I want to stick this in the sector and as you can see there's a quite a lot of gap in between and the text and the border and you can make this as big or small as you want if you want this to be really small you can make it as well if you want to make it overly large and you can do that if you'd like and I think I just otto's always seems to be a good option sometimes I think I did good for the awful and so that's just what it's set to which in this case is yep between small will be so there it is join us every Sunday if you would like to have something else you would rather have 9:00 I am 11:30 and 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. , go ahead after that it is already physical so what's next is our year forever welcome so this is just again it's just another title but the first way you can stick a few images for people to see a picture speaks a thousand words just a little invitation of you know why you're welcome and to to the church so let's go back in here this is going to be under covers till the school done it covers and it's this one here it's cover image for if you want to let die and as you can see it looks slightly different again those buttons there now we're just going to right click we're going to click the blue and this little one here we just were click on get rid of the text I'm not there so whatever we want to put in here as our title al-azhar text and as you can see here all here we just click with the text make sure this is hydraulics to be a heading to and so it's not overly the left side header so we've got our text I'm calling this to be lead text a lead paragraph Bob you're good you're forever welcome members like anything video once and then this is a great place to start putting a few pictures of your church so perhaps I thought it would be best to go for a worship one to begin with we also have somebody's preaching again a little bit of people and I'm talking a picture that has laughter people view actually from your church if the laughing that will just speak absolute volume to the kind of church the ER images really displaying exactly who you are as a church so there we go just another another image in there so now go that's does this part here and what we will do next is that add our church week so here we have our church week so once again you're a goal here now if you remember this is the team if you were to go into our team we will select a team one this time these are circles so as you can see everything once again was buttoned up we want to go here and we want to kill it want to select our church week category so there this church week since six we've only made three but just for the sake of this we want to create three and so there is that fully created ready to go and if we want to change anything sort of color wise or image once we can do that really easily so if we want to go in our way what I change just how big you know how much gap there is between different sections we can do quite easily going to keep this a lot oh we want to change this to be a different color you can do that easily at that's okay yes if we want to go on if they want to change the color we can't if we want to change the size that's more than okay so I'm going to go and I'm just going to keep taxonomic Scribus and we want all the text to contains the alone now just let you know what is up here is basically anything if it would like something not to be on a mobile tee or tablet fee you can just uncheck it I've kept everything tick for the meantime we can't go through things if you find that actually this doesn't really look too great of a globe I'll just log straight back end and then check it I like the way this looks particularly it actually comes with a vertical format on the mobile and saganaki perfect so then we have the next part is our testable so what we so now what we want to do is so now what we want to do is actually go to start creating some testimonials so what we can do is go in here and there is a section here called testimonials or if you select any of them so let's say we select this one here unfortunately we have to actually edit everything in the backend so if you want to be able to do that that's more than okay you just have to leave WordPress go instead of going into the team categories you click testimonials and you create a new one there I actually prefer just to do this slightly differently because we're actually have a got it in huge so what I want you to do is actually to just go over here into text and this is where you've got a lot of different categories there's choose from with text you can even go into here and features large is what I chosen for this one I've actually chosen features large for which just gives me an option to have a real good side profile picture so that's easily done by just clicking this button here so here so that's easily done by just clicking this button here to change the image it can also be done by discover here change the images once again and we go down we fiber for the W values so there's our photo moving away and we can change the background if you want you can change it to white we can change it to black if it's fancy now this is just it gives you a bit more freedom justice type exactly whatever you want because the way I would quite make this testimonial to go is by having a small paragraph here of just boobity of the Ted testimonial but ever link to go from here is a testimonial part and I'll show you how to add this hyperlink again later on so what we want to do is so I'll show you this here once we have this hyperlink or molarity is just go into our church and some stories oh here we go so it's a bit more you can go to a lot more depth and that's why I'll actually going to create our testimonial um so if we go back in here having clearly typed in whatever we worked it as our just as our text keyed up Eric I want to make this lead paragraph once again just give it a bit more structure so this is what you want something I guess just an overview of what somebody's going to be talking about a best story so for this I just written and I do in my church in July 2016 since then I've given my life to Jesus and been able to do incredible things so it's an incredible testimonies are incredible where they get people with you you're just seeing I've got a little bit of how the life-changing effects have happened you're going to have people who are researching for different parts of the life and stories are just fantastic way to do that there's other blogs that will tell you great great ways of how to write pocket Church doors for your websites and you'll you'll be able to find them no problem Church web blog great world before some day another really good one as well there so and book so I've actually yep so we've got that there and we'll have a title I'm just gonna call it my story at our character for this is Mickey so once again we go here click this bring it up let's format this to lead paragraph heading to there you go some by story changes if you would like to have a bit border there we go the world village and there it is so we would like to have a beside the sign which leads up to problems and time so then what we want to do so if we just highlight this and we click insert link now we haven't actually created the page yet so for every time we're just going to put in a hash tag so in the meantime we'll just stick in a hashtag and as I said I like to just have a little asterisk there just so that I know I have to add this link in little so whenever we do add that hyperlink in and we've created the page that's something where that can take us to I got a final part down here is our map so this is really lovely easy to do so we go down here and it's actually in the contacts section so we've got lots of different contact sections lots of different maps and I like to choose this map here which is called map API one just gives a little bit of a rush you can see yeah just slightly differently as you see this is currently the Melbourne Museum which is not her church but it can easily become our church so what we have here is our dress so for the big time we're just going to change the text clip in here so there's our address all over them and you'll have noticed that the map has not yet changed so the way we do this is first of all what we want to do is actually we want to go into Google Maps now if you're registered on Google this will make life so much easier that you can actually type in church so there's actually a thriving Life Church here if that was our church you know we could quite easily just select the address from here and copy of dissident so for the purpose of this demo I'm just going to using a completely made-up location and in the middle of New York somewhere just for at Google exactly where that is it is address yep so it is gonna event pinpoints here if you so if your church isn't actually on Google Maps you can just you know click the big box of a big make sure that you have actually have either the address all tied I just make sure that you actually just have the full address ready to go what you have my villagers ready copy of yesterday to this address park like that it'll pop up now this is the Google API key so don't touch this this is just a map style so this again this is a bit of code that stuck I've used and you can zoom in and out of how close you want a zoom level to be if you'd like to be really close in and so here we have the map and already go as I said just and power means we can change the background of this and now we can we can have our backgrounds changed and and really go for this one I actually sort of flip this I like when there's two images basically you can diagnose from each other but that is it that is our home page built I'm ready to go so we will save this important it seemed to start building the rest of our page so we're going to go back into WordPress so what we're going to do now is start to build some of these pages so we're going to go in and start to build our church page as I've given you the lump three we're going to start to build a side a bit like this so what I want you to do is go into back into team members because this is where we actually build this page now although we are technically creating a new page we're just going to build it from here so that we don't have to edit our church as a pH and also as a team member so if you go into our church and we click at it I'm Allison as I said earlier so we've got this part here that we don't actually want to touch that's because we're going to override everything with using variant page builder so I want you to open variant page builder so now we've got this new part of our website so this is still technically a pH even though it's going to come up within just editing a team member so this is the page that we're wanting to build and what we want to do is have a title and all these different boxes in here so the first thing we're going to do is again if you would like to keep all these things here if you want to get rid of them and you can't do I'm just going to eat them as local options but we want to add our cover first so we click on the block go into coverage and this is the cover that we are working to select now I think I've used this cover quite a lot during their the website so get used to seeing quite a lot of it and but here we go this is this is the page that we're wanting to make so we've got our church and our subheading there so let's put this in here so that's ready to go there and so that's ready to go we just want to make this heading two and there we have our church and currently we don't have a call to action I would just forget little text so right click remove and click on this what we do is just delete the text and then we're ready to go we've got our images here and the way we had these images is by just selecting here so here we've got a bit of worship perhaps somebody preaching the and and just a few people just enjoying their time so we've got our worship image there which we want to add in then we want our middle image which is going to be our preacher here then our final one just even also have a kid or matter and as always you can always change this you can always make this as big as or as little as you want and as you can see I've accidentally added three of these pages so I'm just going to go in here a get rid of the second one and then that's ready to go so we've had got this all completed the next part that we want to do is our what to expect now you can do this in many different forms I've decided just use text for this so covered here select text and we scroll down and I've just used white text layout with three so this way you can type in whatever you want so here we've got a lot to expect and this is just going to scroll down and we can make this a lead paragraph as well would be fancy and so there we go so that's there that's the kind of text them if you want to get rid of a titles here but just have the text we can do that no problem here and just really it's up to you for whatever you want to want to stick in there I quite like just having there basically it's your way of doing it is the preview of what expected the three different bullet points so if you've got things like if there's a dress code for your church for example maybe what the music's like just really give somebody three bullet points of what to expect whenever they walk into your church on Sunday morning how you want them to feel what what is the kind of the things that they do want to have to begin about before they come so that's a great place to do that so I will just edit this last word again and yes all paragraph is up to you whether you want to choose a lead paragraph or not so I just like to keep it all consistent whatever you decide to choose and there you go and for this one just going to make it black and bring the bring the text down just a little bit so maybe make this heading a little bit bigger and there we go so that is our what to expect and then our next part here is our values so you'll notice here I have got valleys and a little subtitle and then all the values just here so basically stood up in the to pod there's a section header another section so this is nice and easily done so we just cover here and we click titles there's lots and lots of different titles you can choose you can choose different page titles if you fancy or section titles so I quite like to go for the section titles and this again you can use your text title if you'd like so I'm just going to choose set to in section title so this is going to be our valleys so once again always just click on the text and to end of it and go from there so Sanji's that's our just a subtitle if we want to show exactly what our values are going to be and then what we want to do is add the next part which is this here so the way I've done this is just if you've got full of values it's just to split your values into 1 2 3 & 4 value and just give that a title and then what your actual value statement is and you can find this really easily in the process part so if we go into here which is processes then this is processes 3 BBT so either use it without that picture in the background I always like for just a bit of a design point of view if you've got a white background then to use either color and then back to white then an image or white image like image just it really breaks it up if you have image image image it's done still just like a block crowded using the white backgrounds just give it a bit more space so here you go this is where you can easily just launch and say and work you know one of our core values is Jesus died for whatever you fancy and then just make sure that you get your formatting right up making this a paragraph and as you can see this is a really lovely way to show your values and you can just click Edit every single one of these as as much as you'd like and the change your image we just go and click this setting bar and choose your image again so the image that I had for this one was just sometimes we is worshipped so there it is we can click this and we've still got the options of having parallax Leslie fans like that and if we want to inverted colors I prefer the sort of the where it looks like you know it doesn't stand too much off the page so I really like this I think this looks really really brilliant we can make this as dark as we want so you know it's how to read there so let's just make that breast dark so our text really stands out well then that is as US for that part if we were to align it in a different way we can do that most easily so that we have it and then our next part here is going to be our plan so once again I'm just going to add in exactly the same title that I did last time so we're going to go down into titles and section title now this is going to be our plan again we want to make this a paragraph a lead paragraph so we've just got a little bit about our plan and I want to make this a little bit smaller just as it's a section title and then once again we want to add this timeline effect now once again we find this in the processes bug so back to where we were early alarm died here in process and if you just scroll up here you can find this section right here so it comes in three different modes already just giving you three three giving these if you want to add more easily done by just clicking this plus and there's going to be your force but if you want to have a fifth just keep at it if you decide you know what we just wanted to three or we just want one we can easily do that so just a really good way is just making sure that you get these in the right order and so I'll just get rid of that one but that will add this one so just to make it all nice and spaced out so here we are so we've got these three so the way I'm just going to do this for the purpose of a demo is to say a past present and future so so here we go we founded in 2009 then I did with a full paragraph about what you're doing there and I've got 4,000 members quote for services and this could be whatever you want for services and then you know where is the future horror so new location or deity so really really easily edited change your text and while laughs there you go I once again we always can change this image just by clicking here and selecting our image so for this one we had and we had something to have this fella here and in this worship pose so there we go and we can once again we can change this to be as dark as we like and what are things with transparent images it's always a really really great thing to use it's a very modern trend and I just make your text download a whole lot more than just using the black background and you know you're not going to have really difficult areas to read if you keep it off so I definitely believe that how many transparency background looks really really good once again if you want to change your colors you can do that absolutely no problems at all so we can change how much of a space between and the borders that we would like and I think I'm going to keep this quite large actually fill up so there we have it so that is our church page the our church page created domed ready to go and really just a matter of minutes so what I want you to do is click see if our best one with four to be sealed and there you have it so we can edit this any point but what what I want you to do is just go back into WordPress so X into WordPress and you'll notice here that this is well if we want to come and edit our church we just go back at the team members and we edit our church this just seems you having to do a whole lot of hyperlinks later on during the during the session so and whenever you were to come in edit this page just make sure you're clicking launch variant page builder and then one of the blue button here and if you press the red button you're going to delete everything that you just created so it's best not to do that so there you have it that is our church dug and dusted okay so the next one that we want to create is our life clips so these are connected life groups whatever your church decides to call them these are your weekly groups where people will you know members of your church meet up a little age groups were centered around different families and just for people to live life together so the way we're going to do this is go back in here and we go back to your team members and once again we find life groups so here we are we've created an early on so we want to go in we want to edit our life clips and just as before we just want to launch variant page builder everything's already created for us we want to go back in we're going to have a blank page a nice blank canvas ready to go and what we're going to do is all we're going to do this time is just once again the same cover that we've had earlier with a couple of images and then we're just going to have a bit of a text box of you know what is a life group how do you get into a life group and there have been a contact information for you so if we go in here and we go down into covers once again we're going to start to find this cover rather quickly because we're going to be using this a lot so here we go so there is and there's a text so let's swoop so let's stick in our text here see if that works again we just want to get rid of these hyperlinks so right click remove click here delete all so sit here we are and then we've got our three images once again so one two three let's get those in by just clicking here and clicking our selected image so and yeah you're going to start to be able to just get the hang of this and very quickly so for this image here we've got this one here this image will have this and then finally our couple pray together there we go so in just a couple of seconds we've got you know the first half of our life group stage diving dusted ready to go and this the second part of that is just going to be another text box so we go down here into text you know what I've used for this is where we'd sit up here it is so text layout want let's just basically it's all set up ready to go so for this we've just got our title and our first for the text so we want to go in here we can put this in and you know what are the things that whenever you've got two different paragraphs and you want to stand out above the other one what you can do is being what a lead paragraph are the other one not so if you've got a slight different bit of text it speeds a bit if you want this part here to stand a little bit more and then here we've just got our information so what we had was a Haida join a collective so I don't know how you would do this and have for your church I go for four hours that most of it's all done with that I Sunday morning and meeting particular people so we just want to give a few directions or how they took the connect group perhaps you have connections stand and your church a really great place to show it's not you know as well one of the things that we have in our church is you know there's a contact number for you to call and go straight through to our connections faster so what we want to do is just put that number there and then also just what the contact dots would be so Tuesday to Friday stick it in see if it there and just once again just keep an eye on your head oh stuff a swamp I just used a head of five for this on a paragraph down here just to keep a little bit of text difference but there you have a page on life grips already sorted our actual going to change the Ginsu look at this from into white maybe I wanted to change this to having a bit of a Borg a texture I could do that absolutely no problem so desire for however you feel is going to look best and just get stuck stirring dip it in the information and there so works again we want to see if this page saved we want to go back into WordPress so click exit the WordPress I've got our life groups all done and dusted so the next part that we want to do is our fun for all ages now if you remember there's three different categories and I recommend that you do this for every every age group within your church and but what we're going to do is we're going to individually do this one by one but first of all you're going to have a fun for all ages overview page so this is just a link for whenever I click frontal all ages here to give a come up and we're going to go through it in the unfold ages part where we can see all the different age categories so if you remember we've done this once again in team members so this is what you just need to keep your wits about you and just follow this step a little bit more carefully than before so we've got although young adults here and remember we've got our fun for all ages here so this is our fun flow ages we did have a fun for ages parent but we never created a pH fill up so if you're wondering where that is what we want to do is just click fun for all ages so we want to go in here we want to click Edit and once again launch variant page doctor our page is created everything's there ready to go so here we've got just this time we've just got a one image title and with a header and then our team again so let's go into stack we want to create a new cover so it's going to covers just to keep it consistent I'm going to go back in and they're just going to select text color one and the image that I'm going to do is this and your mom diving into the water here we're just going to put the title fun for all ages so we select that make this another heading and then we can remove the hyperlink with the right click and then you know just so that our text stands out a little bit more we can make that darker we can leave the section right to whatever we want we make this apply like stuff we want as you can see here that this is what the parallax is this is where the text will actually will the image as you school die it just sometimes makes things a little bit more clearer as my so effect in some ways so we could just add that in so that's what happens when you click on parallax do we want to change the color do we like the way it is that's all that ready to go and then the next part we just go back into your team category and we add team one so once again we've got lots of different things some that we will be somebody walks but what we want to create this time is our fog fog edges parent because they're going to give us the links to things that we would like so fun for all ages parent so we select up and then we've got our three links they're ready to go that is not absolutely being dumped we don't need a because we can change some of the texture here if needs be but all that's done the back end so if you do end up changing some of your teams maybe the labeling of the teams you can just do that for the back end and it will update automatically into the section so there we go we want to save that page and keep a note to house that we've made that page so that's our fun for all ages page and now we want to go back into WordPress and once again some for ages and now what we want to do is we want to start creating these three pages so we've got a young adults yes and our kids and the way we're going to do this is just exactly the same as ours and come back ribs by having this this hero header the three images information about young adults maybe informations about different things that happen in the young adults like this after church after parties or gatherings that happen or big events you know this is a good place to do it and then there'll be a link to to make your events as well so any event that you ever create will just go straight into the events part of your church so that gives you a good little hyperbolic there so the way to build that we go back in the team members we want to click and we want it in it our young adults category so let's edit our young adults or once again everything is all good they're ready to go but we just want to edit variant page builder so if we click variant this is how we're going to start building our website so we've created the page these are young adults three images and text box ready to go so let's go back in let's get our cover let's grab our cover that's cool down to our color image for and we want to relieve this we want to remove this sometimes the full hyperlink will get away you'll just you you'll just get it rid of the text just another right-click we'll do it here we go so young adults for this I didn't even have a subtitle you can have a little subtitle if you fancy so um adults enter make this a different paragraph just as a if you would like a subtitle basically to let it more text so that's all young adults ready to go once again we create our images and we go in here and we add different things so three different images here and our first one is going to be here and our next one our final image our young ladies hung about there so that's what section built and ready to go then what we want to do is just add in text again this is exactly replicating what we did with and our life life groups so once again we just come in here we just wanna edit title give us a give some information about what our young adults are once again missus where we were just if there's different events that you guys have for your young adults this is a great place to do it what I would also suggest is other title maybe if the piece of time that goes with it so let's bit after party and then let's say it's after the six o'clock service so let's say after party's going to be 7:30 p.m. and 7:30 great so just basically that just gives a little bit more of a clear indication of what's going on there once again gathering and what are things that sometimes you might find that this is a kind of page that you would stay stationary but you have different gathering events so instead of having to go into editing this page every single time you have a new event just have a check out our page for more info so there's a little different things that you can do just to send people water and the events that you want so check out our events page and what we want to do is come right here to have all so now you can see there's a little click here that's called events we're going to actually insert a hyperlink now we have created the Olympic Allender yet but what I want you to do is just put up a hashtag so it'll show them as either link and as we did earlier just a little asterisks just so that we know that we still have to put the link in so that we have young adults page all ready to go so what I want you to do is actually just look at that for any of your age groups so our kids work is going to be exactly the same we've got three images and then we've just got all the different things that are going to be happening with our kids events once again have your hyperlink they're ready to go your events so it's all going to go straight to the same page but for the moment we haven't built the page so there's no need to worry about it yet this as well just a range of different images and always make your images you know people photos all of you used to hug your kids ministry all of you young adults just to give a real clear indication of what does go on inside your church and once again information that happens with yes just we create these three websites these three pages for all your huge categories that you've built so what you've done that we'll be ready to move on to the next stage so always make sure you're still in your pages go back into WordPress we've got a young adults all done and then next one we want to go into yes click your launch very mph builder and let's edit away so do that for kids for use for any of your different age categories I will be born to the next stage so the next stage that were wanting to do is ice testimonial a bit of a story so as you can see that this is the front page where we we added Nicky who is going to show a little bit about her experience of the church and testimonies and stories about people come to your church there's another really great way for people to really connect with what's actually going on inside your church so the way we're going to do this is as you can see that this was a bit of an introduction and then if we go to our church we had story and basically this is a bit more about making just an image of just how the full story of how her life got changed our hustle story here so there are a couple of ways to do this now here we are in the backend of WordPress and as you can see there is a part here called testimonials now that would be in a way a very good way to do this but I've actually find that testimonials and stunts just so what we really want to do we lose a lot of the control whenever we go when we add a new testimonial in in the backend itself we just could test here one of the problems is that we don't actually have the option to go into variant page builder so we're actually just going to do this as a full separate page so I want you to go into a new page I'm just going to leave this so we're going to add a new pitch I'll have a guess actually we're just going to call this pitch stories because it's going to come up in our headline title so he'll have stories let's go have Mickey yes so once again we've got we don't need anything else than just this to be a default template we can publish this and we can just dive straight into variant words would into variant page builder and start building away so as you can see here this is actually just one box that's all we needed for this and so here we go in and we're actually going to go into testimonials now a couple of things that whenever you select any of the testimonials and you'll start to see that they all have to be edited in the testimonial post this is everything apart from the first two so this first one here for some reason stack has allowed us to actually edit this from where we are on the page so I'm just going to delete the the first one will be stuck in there so but this is actually one world we're actually able to edit the text we will change the image from here so we don't actually have to use the back end of WordPress so here we go this is where we just want to have Mickeys you know just just one quote of you know one text krutov of a testimonial so we want to add this in here and then the rest is just going to be text and text about her her life if you want to add as you're going we can add this in and we want to change this to be a paragraph once again get political Tatian box if you want to go back into normal paragraph we can make this different style so lead paragraph if you want to add yet another quoted and we can just you know have a quote about quote here if you just select this back quote button just changes it into your new text and have your quotation box over it and just as you'll see certain things then the text just changes slightly different and just in if there are little pipes that maybe a verse of scripture get wanted add this in here it just gives a new different level to add out so for the winter we're just going to keep this all as it is and we just have changed 30 m to the key s I'm joined in July 2016 so it's not too far away I'm say for your testimonials you don't want to use testimonials of really people who have being there from 2010 because that's actually too long ago you want people who have actually can be a church really recently so what you're looking for really those people who I don't want to say that they've just had like a really hard story or really horrible background but do something that gods really need someone really recently somebody who's perhaps come to your church come thoroughly broken but finds themselves every year was just the biggest change I don't know those are the people where you just want to really try and get their story - to give - for people to read they can connect more so as you can see we've got kin quote paragraph just the end part here if we want to just have a bit of a line at the bottom we can just put a horizontal line just to give it a bit more space it'll be a bit more space than they were before so that's nice them easily done now what we want to do here is we've got two edges to add so what are the ones that I added for you can come in here and do both images so for the text image and I actually had a little background shot McGee now this is a huge photograph so you've got to be and I said careful with the photographs that you use if it's only going to be a small photograph you want to compress it down to the smallest you can make it for that size before Google image this is quite a big big picture so it's not all not all photographs are going to be able to work with something like this but we can add this in here and if we want to we can even just get rid of this photo here if we decide that we don't want it we can just remove and actually I believe that that's actually a really nice picture to have we can make this overlay a little bit darker we're gonna have a parallax we can change the text to being floated we can flip it around so it just comes to the cipher I actually think that's possibly nicer than what I created earlier on so that's a really really lovely way to have your testimonials just to make it stand out with look very picturesque that's a really beautiful kind of a photo can use if you were able to get one of the customer you're using so once again you can if you find that you want to use inverted colors what I'm happy to do so I'm just going to keep it as it is choose your text the way you want it to be aligned I'm you're ready to go that start all created you're ready to go I'm here we go see if I've actually just got a have a bit of a change of children mug I'm actually going to give this title and so yes this is gonna be my story take away your quotation box make this your heading remember space there we go that's actually yeah that's probably a little passages to have if you were to add another cover or perhaps a page title you can do that nice and easily each title T as you'll see that it's going to be added down at the bottom here probably door to use a breadcrumb title but if we go up here close that down we can move these up and down if we fancy so there we go if we want to have our title here we can go ahead and do that a little bit let's go get rid of it and see if so the next part that we want to start building is the intense page so if we go tell what's on category and we click events what we've got here is a calendar ready to go so there's lots of different things that we could have so whenever we've got any of our young adults all of our services all of our connect cribs well documented for all of our courses anything like that any church event you have this is a really great way that to demonstrate it and it's quite easy to do by just the way you edit it you go in and then there's actually full information there about everything every single event people can add it to their Google Calendar this is a really really lovely plugin to basically demonstrate everything that's going on in your church now what are things that's really good to have from a church point of view is there's going to be a lot of things in your website which doesn't get updated though to things that will get updated on your event page and your sermons if you record your servants we hope that you add that every week or every time you you have a server recorded but the events page is a really really good great way for somebody to come and look at your website and just see that you're currently updating it so if somebody does come their periods of they see that there's actually nothing listed for the next month so if we go to and via Smurf Smurf of May yeah if people start to see see that there's nothing actually in the box of May it actually gives a great impression but you know what you don't really care about what's going on so if you're going to add a bit let's pinch and really recommend that you do it but only if you are committed to updating it basically updated for six weeks of n thots that would be my recommendation so the way we're going to do this is we're going to come back into WordPress and we're actually going to add a new plugin so we installed some plugins early alarm so we're going to add a new plugin now this doesn't come built in the stack so we're going to have to search for it so we're going to have to go for calendar if our keywords search and then what we want to do is add the events calendar so there's a lot of different ones that you can add for this one I've used the events calendar so all we do is just click install Kaja give see it updated less than a week ago you can really play around with all different types of color DOS I like the events calendar as you can see more than half a million people have downloaded it so it's going to be worthwhile using so there that we've installed the plugin we need to activate the plug-in so depending on how long it's going to be installed once its installed just click activate our calendar will be there ready to go so as you can see our new events appear just popped up here this is a really good tutorial if you want to take three minutes out of your day just to have a look out really different different ways that you can add in different widgets and all different kinds of things for your character so that's that's definitely worth a watch and but for winter and we'll just actually going to show you how to create a new page so if we go into events as you can currently see not a news there already but what we want to do is add a new event so we go in here and so what we want to do is we let's say we want to add our 9:30 service sorry I'm not am souks and through our best years on this and we want to use a number of different things what we want to do here is this is all going to be done the back end so first of all what we want to do is we want to have the date so once the next Sunday that we have coming up so this is Sunday here some day the fourth go back and it's going to be down here and it's going to finish around 10:30 and once again it's going to be gym before against so if you are going to be really mad look at going to look at all right we do anything for your trick all day event is definitely available and what we do is we just stick in the title of you know the venue name and we can actually go and we can add different venues in so that's already organized but for the meantime you just you just fill this in with with your own details and the website just like because that's unless there is perhaps a paid event that you've got going on or you can do this just have a thumbs there and you can have your cost what is it going to be there was the symbol with a repose is that going to be dollars and add your cost in are these all different things that you could kick it out so for this category because we are included on bar their service what I want you to do is create the other category and this is just going to be services so we've added that there with our tags we all have Marion at the tag service but so think of different tags that you might use if you've got like a young adult event coming up you know young adults service perhaps of timers be going yes it's just one of the things that just helped people find certain things or if there's different events that they start going to and they want to see events like the ones that they'll go into the tags is a really good way to just keep it slightly more organized so invent options what we want to have is another featured image so we're just going to have this image as our as if it's there I've here all we want to do is just add a little bit of information so we want to have our am service I'm just a quick sort of invitation of come join us as we worship now I don't know what your services are like some churches I know have perhaps a very contemporary 1130 service but have a very traditional nine o'clock service so this is a good good place to talk about you know your what to expect here is this going to be your contemporary is this going to be your your traditional service so we can do this by just once again adding different headings other would know it is publisher so what we have is we have our events here so we can add all our different events we can add all the different settings so if we want to add a new event all you have to do here is just add the details of your church then it just makes it a lot easier for when you have your church services you don't have to fill in the details every single time you can just add the information and on as you go so now what we want to do is actually we want to just edit the calendar page so if you scroll up here just click this up here that says events I click view calendar so here we've got a bit of an instruction of what we've got going up here so here we have a little text widget and we've got a calendar we've got this gear search we've got different things that we can do so as I said every time somebody will click this event you know this is exactly what they'll see so they've got all the information event category the service times location anything that they can want now it's up to you how you want to display this there are very different ways and what I would actually like to do is just show you how we can edit this for example as you can see from my calendar I've just taken up the full page I've gotten rid of this little text widget so let me show you how to do that so what I want you do click here is customize so now that you've come into the events calendar what we want to do is we must start editing everything to do with this page so it is something here that we're going to see actually we don't really want this text widget that we want all an events here and not on the side we can just click here or we can just decide to remove and if we want to get rid of this one we can remove this as well but if we want to add a widget what we can do is we can add different things so as you can see the appearance is just expanded there but if there is something that you would like to have then that's more than okay so if you come in here for example you can create a lot of different things and you know you can have your your categories down the sides you could have a custom menu if you want comments from you know if there's anything you could also have you know a stack at Twitter and index ahem so an Instagram widget so if you've got a lot of your Instagram posts about your events going on you can add this in and put your details in and you'll start to see that your events your images for your beds will come up on the side so you can go ahead and get up there I'm just gonna lizard I I find that just I'd like to have the larger one disappears and ready to go so there we go so that's how events are going to start to look and as I said you can add certain things in and you can clarify with the colors as well and when it comes to the events so if we go back in here and we click the events calendar you know we can start to play around with a few of the colors and things like that so everything will just sort of be in a neutral format but if you want to change something something else were things that you'll certify with the different categories you'll be able to assign a category to a different color so it's very easy to start to see that your young adults posts will all be in blue your kids events will all be in green and that's a really really good indication to changing but definitely go into the events calendar and just look at the editorial and see all the different and tips and tricks that you can use to really optimize in your church calendar I want to stay there so where things I'm going to talk you through now is just how to start to edit and this up here so currently what we've got is our subtitle heading here so basically if you click here here or here it's going to come up with this hub sub header menu so what we want here in up here I'll say do we want a white background which we can change and I quite like the gray background but you'll start to see there's a couple of things because we are not a shop we don't need a shopping icon we don't need a search bar in a little tutorial I will show you how to create an e-commerce plug-in using WooCommerce so if you do have resources to sell it'll be nice and easy for you to do so but for the work we're just going to get a get rid of all these these boxes so we don't really want to want to have anything listed up there unless you can see there's two different bottoms here from our event what we can see is we've actually got a join us call to action which is always stationary so that's going to be the second bug here so for the moment we want to just get rid of this first one because we're actually going to use it but the second one here we're going to have join us so this is going to be your invitation of what you're going to to send out to a you know in do call to action page and getting people to come in and join your and church what are things is we currently have a book the page so we don't have a hyperlink to put in just yet so it just with a hashtag in there but let's stick on Asterix there so we knew that we have to go and fill in this hyperbolic later on the menu gets changed later on so don't worry about that what you can have is this little what's called a breadcrumb bar I'm not a massive saga thief so I'm actually just going to get with this I feel that they take away from the design and so I'm just going to get rid of these little titles here just so you have a little bit more space or not so you just don't have this just dead dead space around your website but as you can see the advanced page is clean its streamlined it's great for what you're working to do and then here is our logo so I think the stack of already put a logo in so this is where you're able to just stick a liberal in so at the moment I'm just going to remove the logo and you can see that it's telling you that you can still put your logo at any points so this is the place where you come in just select your image stick it in there I don't have an logo created for this demonstration there are different places that you can go to included some of them but if the make of and logo creations and Votto and all these different places where you can then stick your logo in but for the meantime I'm just going to remove both alleles also what was done here in the footer as well which we're going to get rid of I'm not start ready to go so there we go we just want to see Evan publish this over here we've got our social icons over here if you want to put a social icon for example you want to put in your Facebook page so school Facebook what you do is you just type in the URL and then if anyone clicks on my Facebook page that I'll take you straight to themself that's not actually by my website so I'm going to just stick a hashtag in there for a moment and that once again if you would like to have your Instagram page or your Google+ or whatever you have let's see what we have Instagram my alphabet today Instagram so Instagram for that when you're ready to stick in your your icon there so we can do this for as many different ones that we want don't vegetable this is what you just have to be really careful with this code though you can edit it edit this in the backend but what I'm going to do is as you can see those there's the copyright see and stacking the one thing that I don't want is stacking so I'm just going to get rid of this and I'm just going to put life in church and here we have that in there and we've got a copy and if you have perhaps built by somebody else's different ways you can do this as well your logo here obviously we're having stuck our logo in this is done in the study just remember when I said to create your your your page this is what's going to pop up at the bottom down here so we can go at any point up here and this is a really good place to actually just have you address that whether people see your address and the easier it is to find you so and caramel what was the address that I actually used and for the page but if we go down into the joiner section so you can either actually have like Church NYC which is like what I've used up here or you can flip sample house stick your ass in here so you can either do that or you can get rid of it all together and just have nothing there so I'm going to enjoy I'm just going to keep the address in there I guess see if that I'm not how you busy beam edit a little bit at the back end of your term kids and everything apart from blended well that's going to come in at different points so I'll show you that later on the Elliot so the next thing which I'm going to do is I'm going to show you how to create your sermon podcasts so as you can see here under media we have servants so as you can see here we've got a lovely layout and then just a little section for each of our individual sermons so important to make sure that these are different but if you click on them with your title for example here and then basically you'll be able to play the sermon from here now the main thing is that I recommend that you do is you actually have your sermons up on iTunes or I play a podcast a different podcast for either the iTunes this order the podcast app for Apple is is so incredibly good I have such an easy transition to get from there to here I'm going to show you how to do it it's much better to have your website going getting the podcast from a different website because this will just make it so much faster you don't have to worry about having a whole file stored in there I've actually just used a video show customs and regulations here Hamish and Andy show podcast brought to you by goose Monique Gomez so there you go so it's very easy to add then and you know there's going to be nothing nothing to it you've also got your social shares people can leave a comment if they want so we're gonna come right back into WordPress so we want to come right back into the dashboard here of a thing but what we want to do is we want to go into here and we were - sorry we want to go into blogs we want to go to categories as you can see there's a couple of categories already there these are flood stack we want to get them so let's get rid of those if we want to have our category just called sermons so you've got are categorized which is always going to be there for you can't get rid of it so it's kind of a miscellaneous and if you don't if you put a blog post and you do put it and do a parent it's just going to go with dirt and categorized but what we want to do is go to all posts and as you can see there's plenty of post slide here but we want to get rid of all of these again so let's click move to trash apply and add use so what we're going to do is we're going to add a new service so what we want to do is three things the title of our sermon whose book it and also the dip so so that's we're going to just go with max max L this is just off the top head and his sermon is on and Tim's one I did of this sermon was C was yes there's xx self xx of equal five 2017 and also what I would make sure is that you have this selected as an image so select that as an image and place it under sermons add any tag so for example this is just again to if people are searching foot and this is a really great so people want to define James one know and it was Maxie was speaking it so anything under Marcel and when I'm mad so do a good set of tags to use so here we want to we want to add in our image here so we're going to use image of our one of our creatures and there we go there we go so there's an image of one of our pictures so so sigil argument this is going to be back and you can if you want to like don't speak and do this by you know could come do this so easily and by writing notes of me and hopefully just has just one if you want to like any Bible verses in here you can actually put all the scripture in here I think that might be a good idea so what I've got here is just you know I've just got me a guess at this from Bible gateway so we can quite easily just stick all this in here and just so people to follow along if that's what you would like to do James one and yeah there we go so one of the things that we're not going to do is publishing in variant page builder we're just given been doing this in the back end so what I want you to do is just publish this so what we want to do is now add on media so what the best way to do this is actually just from a uol you can insert the media from here is upload the mp3 file but I actually prefer just going from a Texas is where I suggest that you go then you upload your stuff to SoundCloud or em to their agents podcast I'm just going to show you how I got there the podcast from from earlier on so this is here mr. Hamby and a great Australian comedy to do and but what you can see here is you want to download the episode now all you're gonna do is you're actually a big download the episode we're just going to right click and you're going to copy the link address so you've copied the link address of the download now what you just can put it up here so there we go so that's all there ready to go we already sent so we've got our title teams one after you want to put you know we'll leave this title click below we can do that as well if needs be so this is just kind of this when you're just editing a line this you can put this wherever you want but what we already is just update that and that will be ready to be played so if we go into build and UPH this is where we want to build the actual blog post pier just our seventh page so this is going to be our seventh page so that's why we want to do this just give it a title and we're going to launch in variant page builder now if you come here as you can see with media servants what we've got is a standard page header and so we want to add that in again let's get rid of this get rid of this and let's just stick our sermons seven titled in there we go and once again add the images that you would want to use I've done this several times so you should know how to do this by now and if not go back into and we have it also kids ministry pipes and to look at how to do it there's many sections least four and in search of images there but the next poke that we want to do is we want to add a new blog so if we go into here there's different categories that we've been used for the blog now I think the most streamlined and the most beautiful looking one is the blog magazine so if we add this and basically as you can see it's the only blog one that we've got but it's basically it's a way of showing the different are different blog posts here so they're going to show up the more you have the player it's going to looking at just puts it into a really nice format the most recent one will be displayed at the top and if you do this by just show it how many you would like so if you want to have 70,000 of them or just most recent 70 you can do that but just makes your you've just selected servants I recommend like you just have all your all your servants just on the one page and once you get to the point where you've really got to buddy you can start to add a widget and that basically just means that all you're going to do is a simple blog post with a sidebar and it's basically it's just so that you can have everything listed on your blog posts listed here but just a little bit more of a archives list of your harmonium age in July everything's down the side it's just our way of doing it but for the moment I think while you're starting out everything in I think it's a really good way of just having you know your first ten and just in the magazine for graft and if you want to go and you know I would keep this format until you've maybe got 30 or 40 and it's really easy to school it's really easy to find what you're looking for and I till you get too much so there we have it so that's basically how we've made our sermon speech so what we were to do is we want to just see of that but the tested like we want to view in do kids in the new tab so what I want to do is just click on this page so I think take us to the page that we've got so we've just created a space there's the actual website link so please click on max here doing James 1 there's a couple of things that we might want to change we might want to just change this author we probably want to try and change this date where we can as well just so they've actually like that with the deeds that we uploaded the sermon and not the date that we did the post but as you can see this is the Hamish and Andy show podcast the podcast is there ready to go it's all great and you can share your facebook this will be done by again putting in the new backlinks and so if it my legs into your the background of the specific sort of of and WordPress later on and that's how I show you how to do old data we have so people can share it give it a comment I have a really good tip for your website to make high on Google and Facebook is just to get more people of commenting on these than your Facebook page but that's not many to go so that your blogs all done and dusted so let's just make sure that we've saved that we head straight back into into WordPress for the next part so you'll be delighted to hear that we've only got two more pages to go so we've just created our sermons page and the last two pages that we need to create the contact page so this is just a title with a map that I'll show you how to do that and then we've also got our join us page so first of all with the main one believe it is the join us page just because there's something here that we haven't gone over yet that I'd like to show you how to do and using our features to as well so what we're going to do is go into pages go into all pages and we're going to create join us so if we publish this and we can just launch the street and aberrant page builder now the layout of the joint page is that we've got our Sunday service page here so as usual title so join us this Sunday let's get our links in there so filter covers a market so actually just because this is a bit of a one-off kit this is the periods that we ideally want people to go to and just because it gives them a bit of a kind of if you start to see more people come into this page you might start to see more people actually as telling your church this is the kids that we really want people that come and this is your kind of your very personal you know your last kind of chance to get them in fyodor so what do the images that you would like to stick in so I've just gone to a mix of this worship there's preaching and again cover of people from the church just having a laugh and the bigger the smiles the more heartfelt and that the work that most church will be so what we have here is we have a free coffee bar us tea so this is a brilliant idea that many judges have used to basically if somebody is read to church they basically just another way of putting them at ease of you know come and get your free barista style coffee on us if you have a cafe that's great and so this is another good way of also just collecting an email address just that you can perhaps follow up with somebody if a house coming testable vote share if you want to send them in the email with a code then you can look at the codes and once you once they've had their free coffee and you can just send a follow-up email and say you know get in contact with us we just want to we worried or just follow up and ask them you know how they enjoyed their first time at church is there anything you can do for them so this is a great way and great thing to do so what I want you to do is go into here and this is going to be under the so it's you can have a choice of a flee so there are contact pages and but what I would like you to do is actually just use the call to action page so a call to action is just very briefly just it's something that you just you want somebody to click on and to come to your site so and if you need contact a call to action either is good and actually for demonstrative purposes probably this form one here so as you can see if we've got information here so let's put our titles in so have a free coffee on us I'm actually just going to make dessert into kind of free coffee on us and actually you can see here that you use this form from the sidebar I'm going to show you how to create that in a second so we go in and we will change our image so this is where we've got our lovely barista and creating coffee for us at church and it just seems people that they're going to be getting a free coffee so it's a lovely image to use so there we go so we can either use this there are different bars as well that you want to use if you want to use different forms of the images much longer you can be and if we go in here what we're gonna see is the Select contact form now there's lots of different contact forms that you have and this is where does become a little bit tricky you're not going to be coding but you're going to be editing code so here we have enter your email for monthly as you can see it kind of rolls off the page there's a button there those terms and conditions which we don't really need to be absolutely so if we would leave that and fourthly it doesn't leave everything that we want so it's really important that you try not to and do what I just dumped and click the bids so we're actually going to have to go in jump back out a lot and stick it back in so but for the purpose of this I actually wanted to use a much bigger image so I always good I'm going to use a cover foot and so as you can see this is the cover to cover that I've edited foot so we want to stick in titles again so if I'm confusingly but there we go so let's daily but actually what we want to do is change this to get your free copy voucher now so just a call to action what we want them to do we click this what you can do is just edit this if you want to link in there okay we want anything there take your text sometimes it's a couple of dots just in case you want to go back and edit it but what we want to do here is use a contact form now this is where you can go and create your own contacts one I kind of just prefer to use one that was already created so we've got this here but what we want to do is we just want to see in this page for the moment so our page is saved we want to go back into WordPress here so I'm going to right click and go in and open a book so we've gone back into WordPress here we what we want to do is go into content so you want to go to contact forms and the one wacky look at the Edit is called horizontal one now you'll probably find it against active added all these things in to subscribe horizontal one so what I want to do is just add this now you can see here that there's an awful lot of text here it's not very well laid out it is going to give you a headache but so this is where I just want you to be very clear of anything here where you can see the quotation marks limbs are going to be differently things that we want to touch everything else is code it's a language that I don't even know how to use so I'll be able to do is edit these things so and as you can see that after your email address was for your floor above the newsletter all we want to do is say empty your email address so that's all we're changing there and then this part is just going to be submitted and everything else here so what we've got is our terms and conditions boxes so actually or we're going to do is we're going to get rid of this here is these two legs we're going to get rid of this line on this line so I want you to see of this and then I want you to be able to go back into the PSD editing so pages or pages and let's just like click progress them as it's just a kiss we need to go back into your contact so Jonas page is gonna be editing Bay and well so it looks a lot clearer now so as you can see this new and terms and conditions box there's nothing there that need to be we're going to clearly see that we need to type in our email actually see that this box hasn't actually opened up correctly I can assure you that it will my submit button here came up and it's not very clear actually but one of the things that guess so maybe just a send button and one so it comes to actually open it up in a new tab you'll see that the page is there so let's maybe go back in and change that to send just so that it looks a little bit clearer so if we want to go back into contact in the contact forms or go here edit and just go step so you can create your own but I just I definitely felt it's just a little bit clearer because the essence will be recruiting and this is one of the things were this plugin the original WordPress plugin just hasn't really and handed up too well so if we come into here we've got our kids that were currently editing once we see that it'll change the send as we actually have to do it so let's change our image we worked our lovely burst around here ready to go and so let me have a free coffee are us we can change the text of you want everything centered and have a parallax image again if we would like inverted colors yeah could just leave that there which is what I asked about yeah change the section try to as little or as much as you want I quite like how the best quite big just because its best thing that you want to really attract people to so what we want to do is now add feature set so this is going to be our transportation so as you can see here we've got bike our subway our bicycle and so what this is under is features Bob so if we go into features small and we click features small three we're able to just easily let's make sure you go into the vigil I'm not the text text this is all code this is so if you start to edit this you're going to come across a few columns so it's just easily put this here so that's actually the one thing that I've copied up yesterday so let's go car what we want is by car we want to get rid of the learn more and the directions are going to be come just underneath and if you were to have a learn more go into words maybe and link to you know the New York subway system or the transport of near your location you can do that if you fancy and I prefer not to now this can be a bit of an irritant this little new type and there's you can get rid of it by going into the text which is combed here getting rid of it here but just be careful that you don't take away too much code than what you're willing to take away from so when working to make sure is just make sure that your text is all so clear laughter you haven't lost everything so that's the way to get rid of the blue tie by just going in and maybe that's straight from the coding part but then lastly we want to do is just bicycle Park you the other way to get rid of that little blue box is to really just to delete it so for example delete this there we can't just create another one and it should just come up completely identical to the one before so so we want to create by bicycle now we need to change these icons as you can see that this is not a car this is not three animals sub where mrs. Mellon bicycle so we might click I will choose icon so the first one we need is a car so we've got loads and loads of icons and to choose from so you can either scroll free or you can just choose icon search your way up here filter icons and you can scroll through them one by one if you if you're not quite sure what you're looking for and if you come into something about be able to find what you're looking for just just look and through the search bar maybe have to get quite freedom sometimes and it's always interesting when is sometimes not actually a subway code but there is a penny will sew and bicycle I have it so funny bicycle just the tongue-in-cheek there so we have all do it for the students there so and so that's how we we've done the transport there and then we've just got another map here now where they're really weird things about Google Maps is whatever we've actually given the directions in other parts whether it's been the contact us page or the home page what we've done is we've just used part where somebody is actually able to jump on and the with the touch of a button when this is the web site they can't just get directions so they can just click our weather for this so now what we want to do is we want to add our map so we go back into contact and we find a map that we would quite like to use so for this one we're going to use for Google s and map API just a bit of a bigger map to show the location and as you'll see here what we've got if we go back into your join us page we've got our address here we've just got our spiral service towns and then just like a final category that you know so just click it as text easily done and then clicked and all we want to do is change a location so let's copy and paste our dress that's so that we can change the zoom level as well just being a bit of a bigger but maybe we want a bit of a closer or further away zoom so I think actually a bit of a further ways it was perfect for this one and once again we can change how much padding there is between the market anything else if we want to make it dark we can do and I want this section here to be colored like this and voila there we go set is our Jonas page very we're going to go make sure you just update your your images here and works again we're all done so save your page and time to plug in your laptop and by the looks of things here okay so our final page is given the contact page so we've got our join us page all set and ready to go so now we just have our contact page so if we go in here as you can see all we have is just one title with a header and just some contact information so what we actually have here is so what we will do is we've received our page from before so you want to go you can either do two one or two things actually you can either just create a brand new page from here sometimes obviously I've told you not to do this because we've been making we just been editing team pages but this is quite an easy option just to create a brand new page so this is going to be our contact us so if we create this then what we need is our cover so we go back in we use the same cover that we've used just before and you know you can't flick it up and you can you can change it up with whatever and images and covers you would like and I'm actually a bit of a character I quite like the way you know just keeping things even I could system through it so it might seem a little bit boring but I think this is the best way to go about it but let's just put our title in and contact us so paragraph heading to our Contact Us page let's make this section a little bit less there and all we're going to do is actually we're just going to create a map that we added in early alarm so we go into contact and we find our API map so there we go and we're just going to take the CMD T L so please we had the very front page it's when you know people click on three things that they sometimes forget that all this information is on the front page so it's sometimes just a little bit easier to create a brand new page for everybody to come see so we click this add in our address that we have done previously and voila we have created a front page I think this has been the quickest page that we found a great because it was very little there but we're done and we are ready to start editing our menus were able to start getting to the point where were able to create and publish our websites so let's go and do that nice so what we want to do is we want to go into menu sections so this is under the appearance part we want to go into menus so if we click this and you'll see here that stack has already been some headers force so there's a few menus here I think the best thing to do is just to create a brand new menu so we're just going to call this being Church menu just so that we remember exactly what it is and this is basically where we're going to start adding all our pages into so anything that appears that you want to be in the menu so for me I've got the whole cake we've got what's on in here job done we've got fun for all ages which is another job time left groups and events we've got our church so staff members and stories video which is sermons and if you need to add login later on you can add this on the media as well then contact us and join us so the first thing that we're going to do is we're going to add our homepage so if we add our homepage so we're going to add that to menu the next part is our what's on now we actually have included a what's on page so we're going to create just a header foot so this is going to be sorta car guess what's on so what's on and you'll notice because we have included we don't actually have a hyperlink for it but we don't want it we don't want this to take us to anywhere so we're just going to put in a hashtag and that's going to be what's called are just our header so we're going to add the pages that I've come into that so you know what's on we've got for all ages life groups and events so if we go into now remember that we didn't actually create these in pages we created them as team members so if you certify that you actually come see your team members here we also find that they're not in categories thing to do here is just go up here into screen options and then you'll find team members right here so people should check that and then you'll start to find team members have come back in under here so now what we want to do is we want to add our life clips our church so our life clips fun for all ages so we'll add them to the belly and also our events so our event page which is going to be under excuse me so events pH now because we actually didn't create a page it's already been created force works again we can look to see efforts here and loudly there it is events and so we've come only with really got them by p.m. servers that we don't want this to be we don't want to list every single event we just want our event pages now if you're struggling to find where it is like I am clearly because we've we know we've got a pH created but we haven't actually created a pH board what we can do is we just scroll up if we right click events and view calendar if we go up here and we open the calendar I got a pH so this is our events page but what you'll see is we can just copy the hyperlinks on the top here we go down how we stick the URL in there there are lik text is this going to be events so that's everything added in now we want all these to drop down and under the Watts on grid so all we do is we just slide these to the side a little bit so we've got this as a job done and in the Watts on page so there we are ready to go and then what we've got is our from for all ages so once again we've got more team members we've got young adults using kids which we want to add into our menu and we want these to come under the life sorry the fun for all ages clips so what we can do is we just lose them in underneath to what your stem C is there's a bit of a subcategory going on and if we want to leave life groups underneath but not a subcategory if we have slowly added into the subcategory we want to don't you just need to make sure that you're everything's in line so that's what we've got there the next part here is our church we've got staff members and stories so again we don't actually have we do have our church pH but it doesn't actually take us to anyway so what we actually want to do is we want to create a subcategory so so we what we want to do is want to create another custom Blake and what we want to have is just another hashtag in there and it's going to be our church so we want to add that in there and then what we work to have are all the things that we want in our church so we've got Clyde church that we've got our so we want to add that to the menu and then we've got under pages we've got we've got our stories our staff members we want to add all these things so a good way to just notice which one is the clickable link in which one is the actual page just by having the custom link knowing that that if there's no URL that means that you will click it it's just something to be there just as a header so we can just slide all these into our church that our next part is our media so once again we've never actually created a media page but we don't want to we just put the header so hashtag Mia Adam venue what we're going to have is just our sermons page now you can add the last three sermons in under these sermons if you want to go in here and find all your posts for example the last several pages that we added if you want to select that visit under servants you can't do so whenever there is a job done we can do but I think it's just better to have the Serbs page altogether ready to go so that's our servants page they're already I think the last thing we have is just our contact us and it's just a standalone page so if we go in here we've got contact us so we add this to the menu and it's there now as I said a join us page is in a different section so we don't actually add this to the menu but what we do is we go back first of all we see of this menu so we see this menu but we actually need to tick this box here so this is going to be standard navigation so that means that whatever we go in to look at our website again if we click home so if we actually what we need to do is if we go in and we go to a page so if we click our home page and all we want to do is get so if we click that now you'll see that our header has started to menu has started to come up so we've got everything in there that we've we've put in our menu so our fun for ages and then you can start to see that you can never get through your page really really clearly so without further ado what we want to do is we want to go and start adding in the hyperlink stuff we've missed up from earlier on so we're here what we want to do is just go to our home page and we click customize here at the top of the screen so here we have this bit here so what we want to do is we want to just click on add jordiz and if it doesn't come up then you will just click the little edit button beside and if you remember correctly here's our join us page now we've got our title down we just need a hyperlink so what we need to do is to go back in and find out what the hyperlink was so you can go back in to and this is where I recommend if you have two tabs open for this so if we go back into our pages signup page of our journals page we go to edit and all we do is we just copy this hyperlink here so copy and then under the head bump URL - we add this in so it means at any time somebody clicks on this button goes to into there and it's always published and always finger and I'm going to just make this great just because I fed the gray from looks of things and then we happen so that's there ready to go now what we needed to do was to obviously add in all your logos add in everything there if you want to create a fitter and go ahead and do that as well and a fiddle logo and everything you wanted to add in left but what we needed to do is we want to go back into the dashboard and we want to go and we want to start editing all the links that we haven't put in yet so if we go into our pages and we go to home pages and some editing variant so we've got this joyless page book again we want to add the hyperlink in there so what we can't do is two things we've already copied and pasted perfectly good to hear but if we just double click on this button as you can see we can either copy of this title again what it'll give us the option to search so we can just search for join us I've never go that's the ph that we've created us the join us page will give us the hyperbolic straightaway now if we want people to open this and it goes to your new tab so they stay a bit homepage but also from the pejorative stage we're going to select that so that's just if we want somebody to we just want the other page to open a new tab I'm not gonna bother with it I quite like that it goes just straight to the page of the YouTube we're just going to add that in there so our hyperlink is in so what we need to do is just take away the asterisks to do that we've already added our high blank and we're not looking for later so remember just to have a have a school of three there's only many pages the ones that I definitely remember that with we need an ADD hyperlinks into our each category pages so if we go back in now we need to go back in the WordPress Phyllis Oh remember going to see if so we need to go back into WordPress Phyllis because remember we didn't create these as pages we created these as team members so back in the team members click on live adults edit in variant pH builder now what I want you to do here is to a different tab is to go and find the events page which is what we did earlier once so that's if you just remember the events page was Superman a new tab the events URL was just this link here so if we add this in whenever we scroll down we've got this link that we need to add in so if we just click Edit take away the hashtag type in the URL enter or just click it tick away a little asterisks and then that is ready to go so if you just remember keep that for there the pages that you've done then you'll be able to just add in the hyperlinks into you young-adult your kids or any other pages for you you've made that you've added hyperlinks into so that is everything just about ready to go okay so the final things that we need to do you are just last little minute checks so if we go into our dashboard and let's go to pages and all we were to do is just view our front page so we're just going to basically run through a mixture that we've actually got everything mixture all our links work so yes this takes us to where we want it to go we've got this this looks so much better now hey everything's looking good so this is a really really good thing to do have a good plasticity get a buddy somebody who hasn't been editing this to go through it because effectively you will do you know what's supposed to happen you know how it's supposed to look you know how that's supposed to be spelled but that's not always the reality and I'll hold my hand up and be guilty for definitely I've got a fair few spelling mistakes in everything that I've done the first time I'm always making sure that somebody else is having a chequered so go in and just make sure that you've got all your hyperlinks in ready to go and anything that isn't a clickable link just try and figure out where it goes but this is you know in just in just a few hours you've created this incredible Church website it's going to be I
