Creating ADF/XML Emails with Gravity Forms for WordPress

WordPress Training Videos and More

You may have noticed an update email last weekend for our blog & training site, the Selling Cars Online Academy. We added over 40 WordPress tutorial videos and made it easier to navigate at the same time.

If you are already a Selling Cars Online Academy member make sure to log in so you can view the training content. If you would like to become a member and get access to all the WordPress videos click here.

Another benefit of the new site is that it is running on a new Genesis child theme and uses a responsive layout. This means that it will work on all “smart” devices; iOS, Android etc.

As always if you have any requests for tutorials let us know.
