New to WYSIWYG - Learning The Program

[keef]

Hi,
I am new to WYSIWYG Web Builder and very impressed with it's features and the fact this it has support and is still being improved as it moves along with today's technological changes.

I am coming from a background of using Serif WebPlus x8 so although some aspects are similar the approach from the start is so much different.

I do find the program a steep learning curve and the amount of quality media on the web today seems scarce. The video's that are linked are generally about particular features of the program that have been introduced with the various releases or are in a different language which I struggle with.

It seems that there are various ways to create a basic website and this is an amazing feature but what I am looking for is is a tutorial that lays out the basics of starting to build a website suitable for mobile and pc. When it comes to master pages aspects that are retained throughout the whole site for example it is not clear to me how this is achieved in WB19 without creating lots of extra work.

I think this program has alot of potential to be a fantastic website builder but maybe I am just not seeing it, the penny has not yet dropped.

Does anyone here have a link to suitable resource to demonstrate how to get started in WB19 or are willing to spend some time to show me if I am willing to pay for the tutors time, if at a fair cost?

If yes, then what exactly are you missing?

Hi Pablo,
Thank you for your prompt response and thank you for your support for this amazing program.

Yes I have started working through each in the list but I feel that I am missing something.

If I follow the basic starting page how is it best to approach the matter of the mobile version of the site that doesn't involve literally mean
creating everything again from square one.

If there are shortcuts to save hours of work doing this then I am keen to understand this and these become the "tricks of the trade" to help get off the ground as there is plenty of work to do.

I have a project for an e-commerce site involving football but it involves pages for every team in the main leagues leading to over 100 pages so you can see that it is important to get the basics right before committing and messing it up.

There is a series of older tutorials on YouTube by Greg Hughes, who sold a repackaged (90-second webbuilder) version of WYSIWYG Webuilder, but he covered all the basics: layout grids, flex grids, master page, and more. Your time won't be wasted.

Hi paddlefoot,
Thank you so much for this information.

I find these tutorials to be very informative and clear and so have saved them all to work through them.
It helped me to understand how the responsive page methods work and it looks like the way for me to go with my project.

Thank you Pablo for this valuable information.
I have been reading the program guides and will need to refer many times during my learning.
