In this short video, I show how to create a reading progress bar using a free WordPress Plugin called Reading Progress bar from Jean-Baptiste Audras. This is ideal for websites with blogs or long form content where your readers will see their progress as they scroll down reading. It keeps a custom colored progress bar at the top of the screen just below the URL address bar of the browser and scrolls from left to right as the reader continues to scroll down the page.
In this short video you will see how quick and easy it is to create a new blog post. You’ll want to log into your Dashboard in order to see the menu options on the left and continue from this video.

A few weeks ago before Thanksgiving, Bess Auer and I hosted another Blab with a special guest: Taylor McCaslin. He recently did a presentation at WordCamp Orlando about WordPress Multisites and it was fantastic.
In this video, Taylor gives you some of the basics on Multisites, how to set them up, answers hosting questions, use cases and more. Now for some reason his video doesn’t show, but the audio was normal.
