November 05, 2019 338. Should You Use the Gutenberg Editor on Your WordPress Website?
Switching to the Gutenberg Editor was probably the most controversial change in WordPress's history. I'll help you decide whether you should start using Gutenberg for your podcast's WordPress website.
What is the Gutenberg Editor?
Gutenberg's benefits
1 - Make repeatable content and templates with reusable blocks
2 - Unlock more content-formatting options
3 - Replace many separate plugins with Gutenberg features
4 - Use high-quality themes and plugins to get more Gutenberg blocks and options
5 - Paste formatted text without so many worries
6 - Edit faster and without page-refreshes
7 - Navigate your post quickly with an outline
8 - Access advanced options more easily
9 - Edit a block in HTML for advanced needs
Gutenberg's disadvantages
1 - It's a drastic change
2 - There are still some compatibility issues with other plugins
3 - It may slow down some editing functionality
4 - Managing reusable blocks is a little weird right now
5 - Many features may be more simplistic than you want
Tips for using Gutenberg
1 - Install the plugin version if you want the latest version
2 - Install the "Classic Editor" plugin
3 - Don't worry about your past content

October 29, 2019337. How to Conquer Your WordPress Design with a Page-Builder - TAP337
If you're frustrated by your WordPress theme's limitations, you don't know to or don't want to write custom code, or you want a lot more flexibility in your website, you might want to consider a page-builder plugin for WordPress.
You don’t have to know HTML, CSS, PHP, or JavaScript to design your own webpages
A page-builder makes web-design fast with WYSIWYG drag-and-drop editing
A good page-builder can be used anywhere on your site
A page-builder lets you build sections and pages “in your own image”
Page-builders will probably someday integrate directly into the Gutenberg editor
Tips for using a WordPress page-builder
Ensure your theme is compatible
Use a page-builder only when you need more than Gutenberg can offer
Avoid page-builders for full post content
Use global styles over single styles whenever possible
Look for free or premium add-ons to extend your chosen builder
Our favorite WordPress page-builders
Elementor Pro
Divi Builder
Beaver Builder
Themify Builder

October 08, 2019 The Audacity to Podcast Will Return on October 22!

After a nearly two-year hiatus, it’s time to bring back The Audacity to Podcast!

The format and production will be a little different from before, but I will continue with what has always been my goal: to give you the guts and teach you the tools to start and grow your own podcast for passion or profit.

My next few episodes will be about some great new and updated podcasting tools I think you should try, such as the much-hyped RØDECaster Pro, SecondLine Themes for WordPress, Captivate’s new podcast hosting, and more!

So watch TheAudacitytoPodcast.com and your podcast app for new episodes of The Audacity to Podcast on Tuesday mornings!

While you wait, please check out my videos from Podcast Movement 2019 where I interviewed 18 exhibitors to share new podcasting resources with you.

And I hope you’ll join me, Daniel J. Lewis, for the return of The Audacity to Podcast on October 22!

Thanks for listening, and from the bottom of my heart, thank you for the support and encouragement!

Stay subscribed! Stay podcasting! And you’ll hear from me again soon!
