  1. I don’t understand why “professional” courses can’t just say it like this?? I really don’t understand.. They’ll understand when they’ve seen I’ve dropped out to join this course!

  2. Where you list your theme URI, what should I put down if I dont have a database for it?

  3. Good video, but it’s very hard for me to keep watching when you finger stomp on your keyboard.

  7. Starting with absolutely no WordPress or php knowledge I used this series to build our new company Intranet. After completion I had it checked by an experienced WordPress developer. The developer found no big issues to correct or add. So…. Thanks for this great series Allessandro! In a couple of minutes I am starting your advanced series. Looking forward to it!

  8. I called”header” and “footer” into index.php file but then I am getting an error saying undefined function. Is this because of php update or am I missing something? I checked the code again, but it looks fine to me.
    Thank you in advance for your time.
