All Customizer options have now been moved to "Theme Options".
Custom CSS location
The place to add custom CSS has been added to "Theme Options". Bottom left hand side, small button that says "css".
Cornerstone Advanced Options
Advanced Cornerstone options, such as adding a background image or padding to a section, is now invisible by default and must be activated. In Cornerstone, select the "Settings" icon in the bottom left of the page, select "Preferences" and enable "Advanced Mode".
Cornerstone Element CSS
If you want to add custom CSS to a regular (not classic) element in Cornerstone, select the element, and in the options panel on the left, select "Customize" in the top right hand side of the options panel (It's quite easy to miss). Once Customize has been selected, click on "Element CSS", and follow the instructions in the CSS panel to add custom CSS to that element.
Not all options are available in Wordpress Customizers, so this tutorial will show you how to easily edit the built in CSS code of a website theme and add your own styling as you need it. Knowing how to edit basic CSS styling is fundamental to building good websites.

In the latest X Theme update, when applying custom CSS to any of the new elements, you need to click on that element, and select 'customize' on the top right side of the left hand options panel. In the new options presented to you, select 'Element CSS', and follow the instructions provided in the CSS panel to add your own CSS.
SEO has become a buzz-word in modern times for good reason. This guide will show you how to install a very handy SEO plugin, Yoast SEO, to help you add some basic SEO to your websites. This is not an advanced tutorial by any means, and we recommend you pursue proper SEO courses to master the art.
Wordpress websites require some regular attention in the form of updating the Wordpress version, Themes and Plugins. We like to use an affordable Wordpress Management Software system called ManageWP / Orion to manage all of our websites.
Manage WP will connect to your websites daily, update your software and keep backups of your websites in case of emergency. In our opinion, well worth the investment.
