Besides working hard to make their themes Gutenberg compliant, the folks at Genesis have been improving the onboarding experience for new theme owners and a new way for theme developers to easily maintain themes through a new custom API.
See what goodies are in their new “joyful experience” updates with version 2.8.
Genesis has released a new 2.1 version. . Some of the settings have been moved to the WordPress Customizer, and one feature has been removed entirely for new installs. Plus, the new version has a few performance enhancements as well. See all of the changes in this quick video.
Genesis is the most powerful and flexible WordPress frameworks available. It is the only one I use and recommend, and with good reason. Take a video tour of Genesis, including what the framework is, the extra benefits you get by using it, how the home pages of child themes are built, special widgets and plugins that are made specifically for Genesis, and more.
I’m excited to check out the new themes from Yoast. They’re built on the Genesis framework, and that’s just where the goodies start. There’s a new theme customizer, new built-in widgets, and more.

All site designers belong to a secret club. We talk about our headache site owners. Some of you reading this today are those clients. We don’t call out names in our club, but we do dish the dirt.

“I’m on a tight budget.” That’s what I hear from most new site owner wannabes. There is no other industry where you can open a legitimate business with no money and no education on how to run it. But too many site owners fall prey to buying into the hype of doing just that. They expect everything to be cheap or free and somehow be successful on sweat equity alone, while grabbing every shiny new thing some guru said works. Free is not free for long. You’ll pay for it dearly, to the tune of thousands of dollars. Let me show you exactly what I mean with real-world examples.
