The WordPress Block Editor, sometimes referred to as the Gutenberg editor, is a powerful but easy-to-use visual editor that allows you to create attractive Articles and Pages using a series of content-specific "blocks." Each block has their own settings and customization options depending on which type of block is being used. Each different piece of a traditional text document -- headings, paragraphs, lists, images, etc. -- will have its own block to select, while many modern plugins also introduce their own blocks, such as GeoDirectory and GravityForms. Today, we're going to focus on the standard text editing blocks that I...

https://youtu.be/TzeThbqKtJE Last year, Our-Hometown partnered up with the Virginia Press Association to launch our first Digital Initiative -- a program aimed at getting all newspapers under the Virginia Press Association's umbrella on the web with a turnkey digital revenue model. Many local newspapers, especially those covering smaller towns and communities, are still relying entirely on a printed newspaper funded by local advertisers, having neglected to take the next step of launching a website at all.

The following is a guest column contributed by Mr. Kevin Slimp, aka the "News Guru" and host of the Kevin Slimp Webinar Series. It’s late as I write this column, just around midnight. There’s nothing unusual about that. I tend to write my columns, stories, and books late in the evening. Apparently, that’s not the norm for most famous writers in history. Maybe I should take a clue from them. Most famous writers, it seems, were like Ernest Hemingway, waking up as soon as – or before – the sun came up to write while their creative juices flowed, and...

At Our-Hometown, we have the ability to limit the number of active sessions a user has at any given time -- or in other words, limit...
