Hello @JoeT,
one more thing: don´t worry about Barre Chords as a beginner. They are very, very difficult chords. Just think of someone who just got his/her driving licence: that person would probably just drive around his/her hometown at not try to participate in the rallye Paris-Dakar😉 . Learn the other simpler basic chords first (skill course “30 Day Challenge”). That will train your finger flexibilitiy. Later on try Barre Chords including not all strings at first (skill course “Your next six chords”) and move on to more complex Barre Chords later on. It takes time and patience. The guitar is one of the most complicatest instruments to learn.
And if there is a Daily Challenge including Barre Chords and you feel overwhelmed just try a very small piece of the Challenge, for example today (KC7 Mixed Key of B) choose the E-Chord and practice it for 10 minutes. That is not cheating. It´s adjusting the Challenge to your learning level.
Good luck!
