Hi Pierre It’s great to hear from you. I’m glad you’re loving the new tutorials.

Nice one Paul. Good to see you covering most of the important begiiner stuff. Would be great if you could seprate out the projects to keep the code cleaner. I can help with that... I do it as standard now. Keep up the great content mate

Hi Louis It's great to hear from you. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. You make a good point about separating out the code. It's too late for this series as it's all complete with code samples etc it would be nice if you commented how you would structure it, in a billeted list style in here

Just finished the entire series and what a series it is! It's been a few years since I developed an Umbraco site from scratch so this was a great refresher as well as an introduction to some newer things that I'd not used before like the block grid and list. Lots of great tips and tricks too.

Great work as always @prjseal.

I'll tell you what I'll do Paul... I'll pull down your code then refactor it and then do a PR, then you can decide if you want to merge back in. How does that sound?

[stvnhrlnd]

@louisferreira @prjseal It could be left as an unmerged PR, or maybe put into a separate branch so that people could see the approach. But I think it's important that the main branch matches the end result of the tutorial.

Agreed. I'll leave that to Paul to sort out, but I'll do it in a seperate feature branch (assuming I have adequate permissions on Git to push up to his repo)... I'll give it a try

Did you fork or just clone mine?

Just cloned... I'll try fork it ;)

Hi Paul

I'm grateful that you've released a U13 series —all of your Umbraco series are fantastic resources. I always pick up hints and tips from them.

I'm looking at your Umbraco 10 series Episode 11 with the Accordion. It's my first time to code an accordion using Block List. A few visual tweaks and it'll be looking snazzy!

[erlenmeyer316]

Excellent series! A very powerful introduction to Umbraco 13

[ajwaka]

Thanks for the series Paul - very grateful as we're embarking on Umbraco. Just finished walking through all videos w/ your guidance... very valuable!

[prjseal]

It's great to see everyone coming along to say hello. I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying the new videos.

You can unsubscribe from updates to notifications from this issue by the way if they are bugging you 😀

Thanks Paul!

Hi Paul, glad to be able to express all my gratitude and joy for being able to follow your videos without too much problem. You take time to explain and teach us to correct mistakes and correctly use features of Visual studio and Umbraco.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Paul. Thanks for stopping by. It’s great to know the videos are of use to you too. That’s 2 people I’ve seen from Montreal now 😀

For the first time, I am finally on Github. I have already greeted you over on LinkedIn but to reiterate, I am also glad to be able to have access to these fantastic videos. The best feature of your style is that when things go wrong you encourage us to try to figure it out and then you show us how to troubleshoot on the spot. This, alone, has taught me more than I bargained for.

Hi Linda. It's great to see you on GitHub now. Bugs are inevitable in our code so I leave them in the videos to help others learn how to solve them. I'm so glad you see the value in that.

Hi Paul, fantastic series, loving it!

Wow that is amazing, I am so glad to be part of your journey. I hope you end up loving Umbraco as much as I do.

Hi Paul,

I'm at the end of Episode 5 - Part 2 and was about to pick it up again from a new machine. Unfortunately, I'm fairly new to using sqlite. Where can I find the database so the Document Types tree and Content section is filled in for the next episode? Is the db included in this github repo?

BTW - Great series, I'd highly recommend this to anyone coming into Umbraco for the first time!

Hi, I didn't commit it to source control. Later you learn about uSync which means you never need to commit the database.

You can find it on your other machine in this folder. \Freelancer\umbraco\Data\

And the file you need to copy over is called Umbraco.sqlite.db

I'm glad you like the series

Okay, so I skipped to the end and tried out uSync. It worked like a charm for the Settings (...across 96 items). However, I get nothing when sync'ing the Content (0 changes across 0 items).

Is there anything I'm missing to sync the Content section in the Umbraco backoffice?

Content and media are turned of for auto save, you can turn it back on if you want but most people don't.

You can do a manual export for content and media from within the uSync backoffice dashboard using the Export option for Content.

Then you can copy those Dictionary, Media and Content folders from the \uSync\v9\ folder and paste them into the same location on your new site.

Then you can manually import them using the Import option

Hi Paul

I followed you last time in Series 10

Loved to see what you are up to.

This is wonderful and just started - more grease to your elbows.

Hi @stvnhrlnd

Thanks so much for being my guinea pig and helping to make it better for when it went public.

Good luck for your next chapter in Umbraco.

[David-Thompson-2754]

Hello again Paul Very much enjoyed Umbraco 8 series and now starting on watching Umbraco 13 series. Have advocated using Umbraco at work for another project after success of previous V8 one and will be starting with going through your videos to get the right structure in place. Thanks for producing these.

Hi David

I’m so pleased you got a lot out of the v8 ones. I think these v13 ones will gone you even more. Enjoy

[bbpevision]

Hi Paul, I have followed your tutorials and other videos during the last few years, and I am always very excited about your skills. As a newbie, is it always good to see how the "professor" does. I am from Denmark and sell revision e-commerce solutions. I just started the series

Hi Bertram. It's great to hear from you. I hope you enjoy the series and get something out of it. Please stop by and let me know if you make it to the end.

Kind regards

Paul

[mickcooke]

Really enjoying this series so far, thanks for creating it Paul. As a junior developer in Glasgow, I've been struggling to find an appropriate learning path for Umbraco. Until now. I love the way you break everything down, without shortcuts. And seeing you make mistakes along the way, and fixing them, is also really great; I think I learn as much from that as when it works first time. There are also little tricks I am learning along the way, which I've worked out from pausing the video, eg, when you got to the bottom of a really long page of CSS in one click (I worked it out as ctrl + end)!

[MVA-Webmaster]

Hi, Paul! I just wanted to say thank you for the excellent explainations and walkthrough videos. I've been using your tutorials to help me get aquainted with the new Umbraco versions since the Umbraco 8 series.

Kind Regards

[DavinoLiessens]

Hi Paul! Thank you for these informative videos on Umbraco 13. I was completely new to Umbraco, but after watching all the videos, I was able to get started and create my own website with custom components.

Greetings from Belgium!

[tekoscott]

Thanks for another great Umbraco Series. Always look forward to your great content.

[nvb33]

Hi Paul. This is by far the best Umbraco Tutorial available - thank you for all your effort that went into creating it. I completed the Search chapters this week and as I've barely started my MVC journey it was a struggle to wrap my head around most of it, but I got there eventually with your help. I'm looking forward to future educational content releases from you.

Best wishes from Scotland.

[riel712]

Hi Paul, thank you for the time and effor that you have put into creating the content. I have learnt so much so far about Umbraco and what it has to offer. Given your teaching style and how you manage to get your points across using real life scenarios is really what get's me engaged. Can't wait to finish this series and pick up a lot of neat tricks and tips in the near future also!

Thank you, from Papua New Guinea.

[joellevi]

Hi Paul, Very grateful for your instructional videos on the Umbraco CMS. Thank you very much for puuting all the effort in creating these and the GitHub repositories.

Always enjoy your Umbraco tutorials. They're robust and cover everything you need to get a great website up and running. Thanks Paul.

[kickfiz]

Hey Paul, Thank you for the Umbraco 13 series. It was the exact type of course I was looking for. Appreciate all the effort you put in order to help other people.
