Simplesteps for WordPress

Google Reviews Widget

Yes it works, not so easy to find the Google keys + Ids etc but it works, thanks!

Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer

I had to edit a client’s email template and found this gem! Amazing work, great plugin

The more I read and watch the more I realize how much bad information about the subject is circulating. If you are using a WordPress site the least you can do is

• Prepare to spend some money
• Do not use a ready theme
• Do not use a page builder!!! ! ( worse than using a ready theme )
• Plan first your content
• Prepare to spend more money on testing

Here is a great video

Easy, you just rename the old xampp directory and install the new version. PhpMyAdmin works for each one so you can import/export your databases and your files! Doh! I was really worried about this for a long time and thought I should share my ‘solution’

I think this one needs a lot of work.

BACKUP EVEYTHING! 

That’s it folks

And still not sure if I misspell the name!  

Drop It rules! very very nice, how come only 100 active installs ? : )

FacetWP 

mmm, nice one, tricky to use sometimes but it comes with good support. I also love how organised the company looks and respectful of employees. They are close during weekends and on holidays, bravo! I wish more WP companies follow their example.

UberMenu

It is Uber and it is for WP menus. Tons of options, I wish there was a light version but still no1 choice if you need a complex menu.

CSSHERO

: ) This plugin does more than you expect! Really powerful, really useful, tons of options again but what can you do.

Just Now Drop It! 

I am testing the new editor, its tough I don’t know really if I am going to keep it to be honest : ) 

So over the last 10+ years I used and abused many themes. A good theme for me is one that works ( there was a time that this was a concern ), it is WP friendly customizable ( I am going to write a separate post about this ) and how well it’s supported! That’s the most important, customer support, updates and new features. 

Here is my short list:

Sober 

Cool name, cool theme. It works and customer support is friendly and responsive. The theme includes many features which I didn’t try but I customized it easily and that’s a good sign.

Pinnacle 

Good theme, still using it for a client. Too many options for me but handy if you do not want to get your hands dirty with coding. 

I will probably need to update this post : )
