It depends on what version you have.
Their docs here

You can look up almost anything.
You could go into Appearance > Customize and check if you need to upgrade the theme. It will say go pro or something.
Obviously, you would have limitations with those, but still, you can do plenty. Investment in a GPPremium is awesomely good; you get different templates to use on your site. It is worth considering it :)

If you’re looking for quick tutorials on how to use the block editor and spruce up your Wordpress blog posts I’ve been posting one tutorial a day on different aspects that are quick and easy to learn that I think you’ll enjoy 💯.
You can browse through them on my blog or just type in “Wordpress wisdom” in the smart search (magnifying glass) up top😎👍🏼
Thanks, Eric! I have used some for sure, but didn't know there were lots. I had looked for generate press specifically and didn't see much. Thanks!

I have 22 niche articles posted with 4 on deck. I am getting close to 30 woohoo! There isn't a ton of money making opportunities on them as I know to wait a bit to get indexe
In addition to what Phil mentioned, I would continue adding content and sharing on social media platforms and, of course, following up on the core training.
That's really great effort here, Trudy!
I'd suggest your next step is to find affiliate vendors with products you'd be happy promoting, get accepted and start to build landing pages for those products.
Thank you and landing pages would be specific for a single product or many on one page?
Thanks,
A landing page should promote one product and should be focused as a pre-sell and contain the affiliate link. Then you can create blog posts that talk about the issues that the product solves and link to the landing page as the solution.

I am trying to add new photos for featured photos (not moving ones I made in hub), but can't scale them right. I read that 1200x900 is good, but when in wordpress, I go to scal
You can also do it with GIMP (free) in addition to Canva. Adding Featured Images to Your Website (and Avoiding Duplication)
Thanks! This is video I am working from! Since I am adding new images for feature, I am having trouble with sizing. I can try gimp too, thanks!
In Canva, down at the bottom and right, you have a question mark; you can click that and input any issues you have to get instructions on how to do things. I use it sometimes to get to design banners and ads.
galonthetrail.com. I have some up as I just reused what I had, but new ones are square, which still look nice, but I would like them streched across like Kyle's basketball ones.
The photos look great as long as they are relevant to your content and add value, you're good :) Thank you.
Hi - I upload my images to Canva and resize them in there before adding to WordPress.
For GeneratePress, I use 700 x 467.
On the Canva homepage, at the top right of the screen, it says Custom Size.
Click that, then add your required dimensions.
found it, thanks! That makes for a nice photo, but not a banner size for feature. Do have a canva banner size you use to make photo long?

Hello All,
How do I do product reviews without copyrighting pictures? Where do I get the images for specific items? I am building up affiliates and don't have any major on
You need to be affiliated with the program to use their imagery.
However, you would typically need content and traffic before applying to affiliate programs, as they would check your website before approval.

It is more challenging with Amazon as you need to obtain the API and cannot apply unless you have attained the three sales in 180 days.
Thanks!
I am Amazon approved, but I thought they away photo use for all? Since being approved can I now apply for API to use images? (not sure what API is).
Thanks,
That's awesomely great that you are :)
API stands for Application Programming Interface.
Here are some Amazon plugins (paid) if you are interested in fetching an API (you would need to have attained the three sales in 180 days.)
Lasso
Geniuslink
Amalinkspro
Amimagemaster
AAWP
WP tasty
Hi Trudy, I use ShutterStock and I use the feature AI Image Generator, which lets you describe the image you want.
All the best
LD
does the ai image generator create images of branded items? and if so is it legal to use them?
