Kadence Theme Tutorial (Free Version) - Using Starter Templates by Kadence

In this Kadence Theme Tutorial, you'll learn to build a complete site with Kadence using the plugin: Starter Templates by Kadence. This was all done using the free version of Kadence, but the pro version provides a TON of extra functionality, it's worth checking out here: ideaspot.com.au/kadence

This tutorial uses only the standard WordPress Gutenberg editor, combined with Kadence Starter templates and Kadence blocks, making it actually pretty easy.

Starting out with one of the new Kadence starter template pages, we customize the content. Starting by customizing the headers and footers. Then, moving onto the page content, we show how to edit the starter template content, as well as import additional pre designed blocks from the Gutenberg Blocks by Kadence plugin.

The Kadence blog page is pretty easy to work with in the Customizer and the blog posts follow a similar process. The final step is setting up the Kadence form on the contact page so it is able to send emails.

Overall, I certainly liked using this theme. By adding the template and block plugins this workflow becomes almost as easy as using Astra & Elementor. I still think Astra maybe a little easier for beginners, but interested to know what you think!
