00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:11.770
In this video we're going to learn how to customize our pages.

00:00:11.970 --> 00:00:18.540
Basically we're going to be doing things like changing the title of our site or the color of our title

00:00:19.620 --> 00:00:21.940
the background color adding.

00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:28.300
I had an image for example and also going to see how to add some widgets to our page.

00:00:28.350 --> 00:00:32.160
For example we can add a calendar to the bottom of the page.

00:00:32.220 --> 00:00:36.150
We can also add a search box to our page.

00:00:36.210 --> 00:00:36.770
OK.

00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:40.130
And we're going to be doing this without having to write any code.

00:00:40.530 --> 00:00:51.170
So let's go to our dashboard and go to appearance and this time we are going to use the customized.

00:00:52.950 --> 00:00:53.680
OK.

00:00:53.850 --> 00:00:58.880
So the left hand side you can see the different aspects that we can customize on our page.

00:00:59.100 --> 00:00:59.990
OK.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:06.650
On the right hand side you can see a live preview of the page following any changes we have made.

00:01:06.660 --> 00:01:10.430
So let's start with the first item.

00:01:10.540 --> 00:01:13.100
So let's go to his site title anti-glare.

00:01:13.830 --> 00:01:17.140
So we see here our site title.

00:01:17.190 --> 00:01:19.110
So if we take you for example to

00:01:22.470 --> 00:01:36.070
learn or develop with us OK and if we change the tagline to learn WordPress.

00:01:37.470 --> 00:01:38.720
OK.

00:01:39.290 --> 00:01:42.390
And we can see that to you live if you want it say saved changes.

00:01:42.390 --> 00:01:48.180
Just click on Save and publish and you can check the changes on the Web sites you can see a new title

00:01:48.180 --> 00:01:48.730
there.

00:01:48.930 --> 00:01:52.920
And also it's like line now is learn WordPress.

00:01:53.220 --> 00:01:57.460
OK let's move to the next item.

00:01:57.500 --> 00:02:02.670
So of course colors here and we can customize the color of the title.

00:02:02.810 --> 00:02:03.830
OK.

00:02:04.590 --> 00:02:07.870
So if we choose Blue for example it is blue.

00:02:07.890 --> 00:02:08.270
OK.

00:02:08.370 --> 00:02:12.870
Let's keep it defaults for example for now.

00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:18.430
And also of course background color we continue as well.

00:02:18.430 --> 00:02:22.480
For some reason the background color doesn't work with this theme.

00:02:22.670 --> 00:02:28.530
Anyway Leslie it's OK so let's move to the next one.

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.470
So the header image.

00:02:30.540 --> 00:02:35.010
So this is basically to add a header image to our sites.

00:02:35.130 --> 00:02:41.430
And if you click on a new image then if you haven't uploaded any files yet then you would be prompted

00:02:41.430 --> 00:02:42.720
to upload a file.

00:02:42.810 --> 00:02:43.300
OK.

00:02:43.410 --> 00:02:45.370
And we will send x files from your computer.

00:02:45.720 --> 00:02:48.810
And once you've done that then you can select any file you want.

00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:52.280
So if I select this one then I click on selects.

00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:59.150
I will need to crop the image so that it fits the dimensions of our head.

00:02:59.970 --> 00:03:00.180
OK.

00:03:00.180 --> 00:03:03.020
And then you can choose the images that you want.

00:03:03.030 --> 00:03:05.580
OK.

00:03:05.580 --> 00:03:12.070
And then you can crop the image and then we can see our image there in the head.

00:03:12.540 --> 00:03:14.040
OK.

00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:19.430
If I save and publish then I can see the changes on our websites.

00:03:20.370 --> 00:03:22.940
OK.

00:03:25.470 --> 00:03:29.780
All right so let's move to the next one.

00:03:29.830 --> 00:03:35.010
We've got also a background image so they can select a background image as well.

00:03:35.220 --> 00:03:38.480
Of course a navigation item.

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:45.940
And basically you can choose the main menu on the bottom menu from the menus you have created.

00:03:46.020 --> 00:03:46.550
OK.

00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:52.430
So if I select the menu to the main menu then this is going to change.

00:03:52.440 --> 00:03:56.960
OK so our menu to now became the main menu with the credits item.

00:03:57.200 --> 00:03:59.570
OK Leslie.

00:03:59.600 --> 00:04:03.290
I was the same thing for the most money.

00:04:04.200 --> 00:04:08.510
And then we moved to widgets different themes.

00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:10.740
They would come with different widgets.

00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:16.230
So again we just they usually those little boxes you will find either on the right hand side the left

00:04:16.230 --> 00:04:18.740
hand side of the page or sometimes the most on the page.

00:04:18.750 --> 00:04:19.310
OK.

00:04:19.470 --> 00:04:27.660
So with this theme you will find a widgets or sidebar in this location that you're going to have three

00:04:27.670 --> 00:04:32.290
sidebars at the bottom of the page 10 11 and 12.

00:04:32.490 --> 00:04:33.420
OK.

00:04:33.420 --> 00:04:36.590
And also you find a sidebar on the right of the page.

00:04:36.690 --> 00:04:42.410
So it's trying to access one of these site was just a widget.

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:45.710
So for example we can add a calendar.

00:04:46.020 --> 00:04:48.100
OK.

00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:51.600
So let's give you the title Canada

00:04:54.710 --> 00:04:56.550
OK.

00:04:56.840 --> 00:05:00.430
And you'll see what's on the page that we have a column there.

00:05:00.660 --> 00:05:07.180
So if we just publish that you can see how our page looks like.

00:05:07.200 --> 00:05:09.360
Now you've got a calendar there.

00:05:09.690 --> 00:05:10.770
OK.

00:05:10.890 --> 00:05:13.330
So we can add other widgets.

00:05:13.950 --> 00:05:22.460
Let's go to the sidebar 11 this time let's add for example an archive of the Web site posts.

00:05:22.550 --> 00:05:23.650
So that's

00:05:25.900 --> 00:05:29.370
let's give us a title

00:05:38.250 --> 00:05:43.700
archive for example archives.

00:05:43.740 --> 00:05:44.550
OK.

00:05:44.610 --> 00:05:47.990
You can choose whether you wanted this place as a drop down.

00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:50.320
OK.

00:05:50.400 --> 00:05:53.570
If you do that then it's going to show something like this.

00:05:53.640 --> 00:05:53.970
OK.

00:05:53.970 --> 00:05:57.490
So next month otherwise you can show the post counts.

00:05:57.750 --> 00:05:59.560
OK.

00:05:59.610 --> 00:06:08.250
And it's going to show the post counts for the corresponding months of dating.

00:06:08.940 --> 00:06:10.580
Now you can see that were July.

00:06:10.650 --> 00:06:12.680
We had to post that.

00:06:13.410 --> 00:06:14.460
OK.

00:06:14.460 --> 00:06:19.750
So let's move to the next sidebar which is going to be right there.

00:06:19.830 --> 00:06:23.250
OK at this time let's the news let's have box.

00:06:23.310 --> 00:06:24.570
OK.

00:06:25.410 --> 00:06:28.980
So for this we are going to need

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:33.580
a tagline.

00:06:33.990 --> 00:06:34.530
OK.

00:06:34.770 --> 00:06:42.780
So let's Electraglide And let's give our tagline a title newsletter.

00:06:44.470 --> 00:06:47.790
OK let's add some description there saying subscribe

00:06:51.030 --> 00:06:53.200
to newsletter.

00:06:54.380 --> 00:06:55.400
OK.

00:06:55.410 --> 00:06:57.720
And also it's some text to all of us in there.

00:06:57.960 --> 00:06:58.960
So saying.

00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:01.550
Subscribe.

00:07:03.380 --> 00:07:04.260
OK.

00:07:04.820 --> 00:07:09.160
And you could also place a link for the button.

00:07:09.730 --> 00:07:17.040
And once you've done that then just click on this and it's going to close the form.

00:07:17.520 --> 00:07:18.310
OK.

00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:20.130
So we've got some nice we just there.

00:07:20.280 --> 00:07:21.430
OK.

00:07:21.430 --> 00:07:24.000
Now we can see that's our Web sites.

00:07:24.030 --> 00:07:25.120
Looks better now.

00:07:25.170 --> 00:07:27.120
OK.

00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:31.100
Now let's add one final widgets to the sidebar 14 on this.

00:07:31.110 --> 00:07:34.710
This site is going to be on the right hand side of our page.

00:07:35.010 --> 00:07:37.600
OK let's choose this time.

00:07:37.650 --> 00:07:42.040
Let's choose a search box for example.

00:07:42.230 --> 00:07:46.210
OK.

00:07:46.930 --> 00:07:47.990
OK.

00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:49.380
Is click on search.

00:07:49.620 --> 00:07:50.820
OK.

00:07:51.520 --> 00:07:55.980
We of course are search works that we don't have to give you that title.

00:07:56.140 --> 00:07:57.510
OK.

00:07:57.750 --> 00:08:02.300
All right so we have learned how to customize our pages.

00:08:02.320 --> 00:08:07.470
And now if you go to any of the other pages you'll find more or less the same since we didn't just save

00:08:07.980 --> 00:08:13.380
and have a look so fresh.

00:08:13.580 --> 00:08:15.770
So this how does our front page.

00:08:15.770 --> 00:08:16.320
OK.

00:08:16.380 --> 00:08:22.360
Read the posts and if you go to the About page they find the same structure.

00:08:22.470 --> 00:08:23.800
OK.

00:08:24.460 --> 00:08:29.050
And the contacts page find will save.

00:08:30.150 --> 00:08:31.750
OK.

00:08:33.330 --> 00:08:40.110
We can also customize a single page if you want to so let's say let's customize contacts OK and change

00:08:40.110 --> 00:08:42.290
the look of this single page.

00:08:42.450 --> 00:08:49.580
So the way to do that is we going to go to our dashboard gates if you click on this like.

00:08:50.300 --> 00:08:56.770
And if you go to pages and click on Contact
