+Brad Traversy Would this work if I am using a purchased template that I
brought and edited in Dreamweaver too?
nice tutorial sir, i have a question, where to put my javascript files?
Super cool technique to convert pages. I’ve been doing it backwards but
your version is much easier.
Very nice tutorial
hi nice tut, although you didn’t explain why you copied code from there up
to there in both header and footer, but i figured out myself.
Thanks A lot for such a wonderful tutorial, Subscribed… nice job thanks
I want to know if you memorize some CSS class in WordPress, What I have
observed is that you remove the un-ordered list which has a Class of
“current_page_item” and replace it with an auto generated list. Am I right?
if yes do I need to memorize CSS class specific in WordPress?
This helps so much more than anything else I’ve seen, thanks dude.

Hi Brad! Really enjoying this tutorial so far. You really go through each
step explaining it in a way that I can understand and learn with almost no
Wordpress or PHP experience. I’ve finished a site using HTML and CSS,
however I need to implement a CMS and we’ve chosen WordPress. I’ve followed
the steps up to testing the template at about 16:00. I uploaded the files
using an FTP then activated the theme. However, when I test the site the
home page is just blank? Any idea what I might be missing? Thanks again for
the great video.
Very useful video, thx a lot Brad!!!
It is really helpful for beginners……….

ever seen. Thank you so much, exellent job!!!
