Great job! The tutorial gives a quick overview on how to get a basic website setup. Will this be part of the Learning Pathways? For me I am still confused by Blog Home and Home Page. Will the next video be about setting up blog, contact pages?

Thanks @lada7042. Yes, this will form part of the beginner learning pathway. Here is another lesson being reviewed where I tried to cover setting the home page display: #2099.

Hi @westnz, great tutorial. I like how you walk through setting up a complete blog in less than 10 minutes.
A quick question: Why not manage the navigation by clicking on Navigation in the Site Editor (~3:45)?

Thanks so much @ironnysh

Why not manage the navigation by clicking on Navigation in the Site Editor (~3:45)?

I wanted to manage the navigation in context 😃
