Hey guys!
I have quite a lot of a dev experience with WordPress/WooCommerce, but has never really worked with the ready-made themes as I’ve been creating heavily customized websites from scratch only.
I’m working on a project now with a need to quickly create a few nice-looking niche stores that will have pretty much identical layouts but different colours, typography and obviously content.
Time to market is critical, so I’m looking at something like Divi Theme / Uncode / Astra / Elementor Hello etc. I have a lot of flexibility regarding the particular look, it just needs to be modern and converting.
The main focus is on the mobile product pages as they’ll receive all the traffic, so that’s the main priorities. Can you please suggest which theme to go with based on your experience?
​
Must haves:
\- Sleek looking product pages out of box with a variety of blocks that I can quickly use to build the product page I need. It’s 2023 and many themes are years behind with the templates they provide with the typography and layouts
\- Reasonable learning curve, so I don’t spend weeks trying to figure it all out
\- AJAX add to cart and nice looking minicart panel (ideally with spend X more to get free shipping, but I can code that one if needed)
\- Ability to manage typography and colors in one place with ability to override for specific blocks
\- Reasonable performance out of the box (I’ll be using WP Rocket or Autoptimize anyway, plus full-page cache on VPS, serving static assets from CDN etc., so I’m ok doing extra work there as long as the foundation is solid)
​
Important, but not a must:
\- Customizable checkout (I’m ok using a separate plugin for that)
\- Blocks with video content, ideally muted autoplay option (can do custom code if needed)
​
Nice to have:
\- One payment for all website licenses rather than per site, but not that important at all
\- Popup builder that I can use to display additional product info (again, can code those if required or find a plugin)
\- Cart/checkout upsells (I’m ok using custom code or a plugin if not available)
​
Many thanks to everyone in advance!!
