Creating Layouts

What you will learn in this section

Beautiful layouts are absolutely possible with the site editor, but success requires understanding the available tools fundamentally rather than randomly experimenting. Whether you’re coming from HTML/CSS or other page builders, there’s a systematic approach to WordPress layout building.

The key is taking time to understand each layout tool and when to use it. Once you grasp the fundamentals, you’ll know exactly why layouts are built certain ways, what different settings accomplish, and how to achieve your design goals efficiently.

This section focuses on methodical understanding rather than quick tricks. The systematic approach might seem slower initially, but it creates sustainable knowledge that serves you throughout your WordPress development career.

If others can master these tools, you can too – it’s about understanding the method behind what might initially seem like madness.
