FAQ

What is WordPress?

WordPress is a free content management system. Simply put, it makes creating and maintaining websites super easy through an online interface. Once it’s installed on your domain and web hosting (we recommend HostGator), all you need is a compute and internet connection to edit your website. And if you know how to use Microsoft Word, then you can operate WordPress.

What is a Theme?

A Theme is simply a web template that runs in the WordPress content management system.


What do I need to have in order to use a purchase theme?

Wplocalthemes makes website templates to be used in the free WordPress software platform. In short, in order to use one of our themes, you’ll need:

* Basic knowledge of WordPress and HTML (although we try hard to minimize the HTML part for you).
* A domain name.
* Web hosting. (We recommend HostGator)
* The free WordPress software installed.

Most popular web hosting companies offer a quick install of WordPress.

We often refer clients to HostGator for the best, most affordable WordPress web hosting.

How do I purchase a Theme?

Click on the Purchase or Buy Now button, and you can pay through our secure online system via credit card or PayPal. Once payment is remitted, you’ll be sent a link for download.

Can these themes work on WordPress.com?

No, our themes are designed to be used for the self-hosted version of WordPress.

Are your themes compatible with plugins and widgets?

We style and code our themes to be compatible with most standard plugins and widgets. But due to the sheer numbers of plugins and widgets available we cannot code for them all. Thus, some plugins and widgets may cause the theme to “break” in certain browsers. We make every attempt to prepare our themes for them, but cannot guarantee it will work in every situation. If you would like help integrating certain plugins with our themes, please consult our Add-On Services page.

Can I remove the credits in the footer?

Yes, you may only remove the credits if you have purchased one of our packages.

Are the stock photos featured in the theme demo/preview sites included in the purchase?

No. Due to licensing agreements, we cannot include stock photos/images in our templates. However, for top-quality, royalty-free and affordable photos, check out iStockphoto and Fotolia.

Are PSDs (layered Photoshop files) included with my theme purchase?

No. Unless otherwise specific, PSD, or layered Photoshop files, are not included with your theme purchase and are not licensed under the GPL.

What software do you suggest for editing photos?

Two popular image-editing software products are GIMP (free) and Photoshop Elements (paid).

What is your refund policy?

Because of the nature of our themes — which are digitally delievered and non-tangible goods — we cannot offer refunds or chargebacks for purchases. Therefore, please read our FAQs carefully before purchasing your theme. And as always, you can email questions to us!

What does “1 year of theme updates” mean?

When you purchase a theme it comes with a 1 year subscription to theme updates and support. Meaning that when we push out a new version/feature to your theme during your subscription year, you will have immediate access to it. After the 1 year mark the theme is still yours to use and keep, but you will no longer have access to updates or the forum. You would need to re-purchase the product to renew your subscription – much like a magazine subscription.
