Hi Sanjay, Once you have your blog set up, creating a page like this with text, a video, images and comments is as easy as creating a new blog post! I do provide a series of Getting Started videos, and a User Guide for the SmallBiz Theme to help you get started so you can set it up yourself. If you want to hire someone to set the blog up for you, I've got a group of experts who have been through my training and know the SmallBiz theme (and WordPress) very well. Here's the link: Expand2Web Expert Consultants.

How do I create a blog article like this one here where you have some text, video and then question and answer session.
This is exactly what I am looking for,
Also Do you provide help with setting up websites based on your wordpress templates?
I am new to blogging

@Kalyan, Not if you are using WordPress.com. Are you using self hosted WordPress or WordPress.com?

Hi Don,

If I am using a simple WordPress theme and using WordPress again to host my blog, is it possible for me also to use the FTP client and all & use seperate themes than the ones wordpress gives?

Thanks,
Kalyan

While I am working on WP I have ftp window open on desktop so that with one click I can upload files. The Admin UI requires a database not operatring in safe mode. My ISP toggled a switch and it worked, however, my preference is ftp, I can see what is going on. Thanks

@Amandeep, @Mark – I’ve heard from one other person who is having trouble uploading themes through the Admin UI as well.

I haven’t had trouble with it myself, but it seems like with certain hosting providers there can be problems uploading this way. Does it work for you if you use FTP?

@Mark – to answer your question about FTP – all you need to do is upload the theme folder into your wp-content/themes directory. Then it should appear in your WordPress Admin under Appearance -> Themes so you can activate it. You do not need to update any other files.

I need to use ftp to upload themes in 2.8 because I get error messages when I use the WP admin panel. The error messages as you know use a foreign language and they might as well not be displayed at all.
If I use ftp, do you know if I have to make changes to any other file in the WordPress ‘system’ to enable access to the themes?
