Discover How to Setup and Design a Website With a Genesis WordPress Theme
WordPress has become THE standard for building websites today because it's flexible, robust and it comes free with paid hosting.In the video below, you can watch me take the basic Genesis Lifestyle WordPress theme and customize it to my liking.
Here are some of the topics covered...
- Customizing the header (includes a brief Photoshop tutorial)
- Adding/Editing header menus
- Floating social media icons (or any elements) in the header
- Modifying the navigation
- Creating a 3-column footer
- How to use the Simple Hooks plugin to edit virtually any part of the site.
The Genesis Lifestyle theme also comes with a free guide to help you learn how to use the theme.
Update: This theme has been
upgraded to 3.0 and is slightly different from the video below. It still
has the same great features, it's just responsive -- which means it automatically adjusts to fit smaller screens (mobile devices, etc.) Having a responsive design is a MUST today.
Update: I now use the Genesis Magazine Pro theme instead of Lifestyle Pro for my hair site. Same company, just a different theme design. It is also responsive / mobile-friendly.
