X Theme and my online Udemy course

Hi there guys,

As the higher ups at X know, I created a course this year that revolves almost entirely around the X theme, and building an awesome Wordpress site with it.

The problem is that every time X gets an update I have to reshoot hours of course videos to suit the new updates so that people don’t get lost. I have already suffered a bad review on my course cause a new student was getting lost in the new X.

Is there any info you could give me about the X updates in terms of:

  • Is X (not Pro) going to reach a point where the UI updates etc will stop?
  • Is there any way to get a few weeks warning before a new update is released?
  • Any other info that might help me with this :slight_smile:

Thanks a bunch,
Chris

Hello Chris,

Thanks for asking.

Let me address your your questions one at a time:

  • X Theme UI updates: In my view it will be a bit mistake for any product to stop improving the UI and the overall experience of the same. Web is evolving continually and with that new technologies are emerging that offer better value. Along with that and most importantly we also need to understand that customers requirement and preferences changes with time and kind of projects they work on. Customers want more power full at the same time easy to use options and tools. To integrate those options and customers needs any product will have to iterate the UI. It’s difficult for me to give you a exact answer but I don’t think we would stop improving our UI and UX experience. We are constantly working on improving the work flow while interacting with customers and gathering feedback. So I don’t think we will and we should stop improving the UI experience.
  • Prior information: You can follow our social media pages wherein our team post relevant details on the tools and features we are currently working on. You can also check the News section on the forum (see right side column) for announcements. You also have the option to keep an eye on changelog page. I am sharing the URL below.

  • I can understand the issue and hard work you put into create video contents for Udemy audience. When UI of the product changes it does causes a problem and the need to re-create videos again. You also need to understand that the technologies, customers feature request, customers preferences changes from time to time. To integrate them will require changes in UI. For ex in this release we launched roles manager. It was one the most requested feature that customers were looking for. Now to implement this feature will require changes UI so that the end result is a easy to use at the same time is powerful tool that customers can use.

Hope that helps putting things into perspective.

Thanks.
