Okay, here's the transcript in a more readable format:
0:01 when guests don't know how they text you 0:05 show them instead I'm Jessica I've spent 0:08 20 years building systems for teams and 0:10 companies and now I help hosts do the 0:12 same if you've ever thought there has 0:14 got to be a better way to do this you're 0:16 right and we're going to build it 0:18 together let's get into it to bring this 0:21 to life we're using WordPress with the 0:23 Kubio Builder the Rufus theme and the 0:25 content views plugin to keep everything 0:27 organized and of course we'll bring in 0:30 chat GPT to help draft content that's 0:33 clear and guest friendly these tools are 0:36 easy to use even if you're not techy 0:38 right now our home guide page just says 0:40 coming soon so in this segment we're 0:42 going to build our first how-to guide 0:44 and set up the tools that will make it 0:45 easy to repeat for any part of your home 0:48 first we need to install a free plugin 0:50 called content views in WordPress 0:52 plugins are like apps they add features 0:55 your site doesn't have by default some 0:58 are paid or pro but we'll be using the 1:01 free version today content views helps 1:03 us organize and display our how-to blog 1:05 posts in a clean skimable way perfect 1:08 for guests on the go when we hear the 1:10 term blog post most of us picture 1:12 something like this a travel diary a 1:15 personal story maybe a recap of a day 1:18 downtown but blog posts can be so much 1:21 more we're going to use them to create 1:23 easy scannable how-to guides that guests 1:26 can read on their phones complete with 1:28 categories images and even a space for 1:31 questions so let's clean house we'll 1:34 move these default demo posts to the 1:37 trash and start fresh with content that 1:39 actually helps your guests categories 1:42 are one of the most important tools for 1:44 organizing your blog posts they help you 1:47 group related content together which 1:49 means your guests can quickly find the 1:51 answers they need without having to 1:53 scroll through everything let's add a 1:56 couple of categories so you can see how 1:57 it works first we'll create one called 2:00 home guide article 2:03 now we're not just calling it home guide 2:05 because that's also the name of our page 2:08 and in WordPress category names can 2:10 sometimes take priority in URLs to avoid 2:13 conflicts make sure your post category 2:15 names are not the same as your page 2:17 names next we'll add a second category 2:21 called kitchen and set the parent 2:23 category to home guide article 2:26 this lets us create subsections on our 2:28 home guide page like rooms of the house 2:30 or types of systems for a cleaner and 2:34 more helpful guest experience in this 2:36 segment we'll combine WordPress and chat 2:38 GPT to create a clear guest ready how-to 2:41 guide start by heading to the top menu 2:44 in WordPress select new then choose post 2:47 this is where we'll create your first 2:49 guide to make this easy we're using chat 2:51 GPT here's the prompt I'm using to write 2:54 a guide for our Ninja coffee maker you 2:56 can adjust it to fit any appliance or 2:58 setup in your home in just a few seconds 3:00 we've got clear step-by-step 3:01 instructions guests can follow including 3:04 tips for using pods or grounds cleaning 3:06 and image suggestions to make it visual 3:08 now I'll copy the content from chat GPT 3:11 into our blog post you can drop in 3:13 helpful images like a shot of your 3:14 specific machine or any tricky buttons 3:17 guests need to find over on the right 3:19 panel we'll set a post category so it 3:21 shows up on the right page of our guide 3:23 and we'll add a featured image to make 3:25 it stand out once everything looks good 3:27 click publish and your new guide is live 3:30 and one last tip if you need to make 3:32 changes later be sure to choose edit 3:34 post not edit with Kubio edit post is 3:37 for changing the content while edit with 3:39 Kubio will change the template and that 3:41 affects every post using the same layout 3:43 now that we've created our first how-to 3:45 blog post and assigned it to a category 3:48 we're ready to lay out the home guide 3:49 page this is where the content views 3:52 plugin really shines the goal here is to 3:56 make your guide feel like a visual index 3:58 something guests can quickly scan to 4:00 find what they need whether they're on a 4:02 phone tablet or laptop 4:05 we'll start by opening the content views 4:07 plugin and creating a new view this is 4:10 basically a visual layout tool that lets 4:13 us choose what post to show and how to 4:15 display them for this first view I'm 4:18 filtering by the home guide article 4:20 category that way we're only showing 4:23 blog posts that are part of our digital 4:25 home guide and we can keep other types 4:27 of posts separate later on next I'll 4:31 choose a layout a simple grid or 4:33 collapsible list works really well here 4:35 it keeps things tidy and easy to read on 4:38 mobile we can also decide what elements 4:40 to show maybe just the post title and a 4:43 featured image or a short intro with a 4:45 read more link the best part is that 4:48 this layout is fully automatic every 4:51 time we publish a new blog post in this 4:53 category it will instantly appear on the 4:56 guide page once we like how it looks we 4:58 just copy the short

when guests don't know how they text you show them instead I'm Jessica I've spent 20 years building systems for teams and companies and now I help hosts do the same if you've ever thought there has got to be a better way to do this you're right and we're going to build it together let's get into it to bring this to life we're using WordPress with the Kubio Builder the Rufus theme and the content views plugin to keep everything organized and of course we'll bring in chat GPT to help draft content that's clear and guest friendly these tools are easy to use even if you're not techy right now our home guide page just says coming soon so in this segment we're going to build our first how-to guide and set up the tools that will make it easy to repeat for any part of your home first we need to install a free plugin called content views in WordPress plugins are like apps they add features your site doesn't have by default some are paid or pro but we'll be using the free version today content views helps us organize and display our how-to blog posts in a clean skimable way perfect for guests on the go when we hear the term blog post most of us picture something like this a travel diary a personal story maybe a recap of a day downtown but blog posts can be so much more we're going to use them to create easy scannable how-to guides that guests can read on their phones complete with categories images and even a space for questions so let's clean house we'll move these default demo posts to the trash and start fresh with content that actually helps your guests categories are one of the most important tools for organizing your blog posts they help you group related content together which means your guests can quickly find the answers they need without having to scroll through everything let's add a couple of categories so you can see how it works first we'll create one called home guide article now we're not just calling it home guide because that's also the name of our page and in WordPress category names can sometimes take priority in URLs to avoid conflicts make sure your post category names are not the same as your page names next we'll add a second category called kitchen and set the parent category to home guide article this lets us create subsections on our home guide page like rooms of the house or types of systems for a cleaner and more helpful guest experience in this segment we'll combine WordPress and chat GPT to create a clear guest ready how-to guide start by heading to the top menu in WordPress select new then choose post this is where we'll create your first guide to make this easy we're using chat GPT here's the prompt I'm using to write a guide for our Ninja coffee maker you can adjust it to fit any appliance or setup in your home in just a few seconds we've got clear step-by-step instructions guests can follow including tips for using pods or grounds cleaning and image suggestions to make it visual now I'll copy the content from chat GPT into our blog post you can drop in helpful images like a shot of your specific machine or any tricky buttons guests need to find over on the right panel we'll set a post category so it shows up on the right page of our guide and we'll add a featured image to make it stand out once everything looks good click publish and your new guide is live and one last tip if you need to make changes later be sure to choose edit post not edit with Kubio edit post is for changing the content while edit with Kubio will change the template and that affects every post using the same layout now that we've created our first how-to blog post and assigned it to a category we're ready to lay out the home guide page this is where the content views plugin really shines the goal here is to make your guide feel like a visual index something guests can quickly scan to find what they need whether they're on a phone tablet or laptop we'll start by opening the content views plugin and creating a new view this is basically a visual layout tool that lets us choose what post to show and how to display them for this first view I'm filtering by the home guide article category that way we're only showing blog posts that are part of our digital home guide and we can keep other types of posts separate later on next I'll choose a layout a simple grid or collapsible list works really well here it keeps things tidy and easy to read on mobile we can also decide what elements to show maybe just the post title and a featured image or a short intro with a read more link the best part is that this layout is fully automatic every time we publish a new blog post in this category it will instantly appear on the guide page once we like how it looks we just copy the short code that content views gives us and paste it right into our home guide page that's it your how-to content is now live organized and ready for your next guest you learned how to write a guest friendly how-to using blog posts organize them with categories lay them out with content views and connect it all to your home guide you did it your first home guide post is live and already working for you keep going and soon you'll have a guest guide that's the envy of every host
