Help getting started

Hello,

To get started, you’ll first want a WordPress site up and running. WordPress itself is free software, but you’ll need web hosting to install it on. Most hosts offer a one-click WordPress installer, so once you’ve signed up with a host, getting WordPress live is usually quick.

Once WordPress is installed, you can add GeneratePress from your dashboard under Appearance > Themes > Add New, search for “GeneratePress,” then install and activate it. From there, GenerateBlocks can be added under Plugins > Add New the same way. Both have free versions to get you going.

For learning the ropes, our documentation and video tutorials are a great starting point:

• GeneratePress docs: https://docs.generatepress.com
• GenerateBlocks docs: https://learn.generatepress.com

I’d recommend working through those alongside building a test site — hands-on practice tends to make things click quickly.

One thing to note: our support covers questions about how GeneratePress and GenerateBlocks work, so feel free to reach out any time you hit a specific snag.
