Website builder

    Hi! I have some good tutorials for building my own website but it requires the following plug-ins (Starter Templates, Elementor, WPforms Lite) which all appear to require an upgrade to the business level annual plan. My hope is to build my website and upgrade my plan if required later when I launch. Is there a way around this?

    I’m also finding the blocks feature very limiting in terms of what I can achieve with editing. I have a good idea of the layout and colours I want but anything I try doesn’t allow me to achieve it. (full width header tab with logo and strapping (one below the other), Company name centred and a navigation menu with drop down to page lists on the right hand side.

    I would also like to create a landing page with a similar header and two images (full width) underneath and a countdown timer at the bottom. Is there an email for the support team at WordPress or anywhere I can locate these instructional? I’m getting nowhere.

    Thanks

    WP.com: Yes

    Hey there, we can absolutely help you get a site started. I’d recommend these tutorials for starting out:
    https://wordpress.com/support/tutorials

    There are a few different use cases there. And blocks should open up even more flexibility.

    Can you clarify this?

    with logo and strapping (one below the other)

    If you’ve got an example we can likely help.

    The countdown timer may be a bit tricker, but perhaps this would help:

    Update: we do indeed have a nice countdown block.

    Just type

    /countdown

    to get it while editing your page. Hoping this helps!
