I have switched themes recently too Astra and am having difficulty adding a header image to my page. Is there a trick to this? Anyone use this theme that can help me out??

You also have the opportunity to find out from the theme developer if they can help. Scroll to the bottom of the web page and find their information there. Personally once I start a site I don't like to change the themes for too many reasons.
Hope this helps,

Hey Montana,

Google searching "astra wp theme documentation" (without the quotation marks, of course), there are all sorts of help both in print and in video form.

Have you look through those yet?

I have! I don't know what is going on here... :|

Okay... then try this search "add header image to astra wp theme" (again, without the quotation marks.

i have installed this theme - possibly cheated by using elementor to create a site wide header -with video.
whats seems to be the problem

Needing some inspiration here - I can't seem to make up my mind on which theme is best for a blogging site. What is your go to? Points for easy to navigate ;)

Easy for me. I use Thrive Themes and Astra, as my go themes / page builders/ plugins of choice

I have two different sites ( both on my profile here at WA) for two different things, and both integrate with each other nicely

IF possible, avoid FREE themes, because while free is good normally, when it comes to WordPress, well you might as well handcuff one hand behind your back, not that I am suggesting you should handcuff yourself!!... But having used Free for years and experienced the frustrations, then gone premium, I know which I prefer : )

Another thing to bear in mind is this, it depends on what your niche is as as well, because you get themes which are specific to niches

Have a look at this link, it may help. https://www.codeinwp.com/blog/elementor-vs-divi-builder-vs-beaver-builder/

I think the Divi theme is the best.

I'm a huge fan of Divi Theme by Elegant Themes it is paid but well worth it. If you need info on it let me know.

Hi Montana,

I recommend Divi theme. It is not free, but it has a lot of features and is very fast.

Hello Montana,

I was recently researching this same question and a lot of google searches mentioned Astra. I've looked at the theme myself with a live preview of my own site and I think with some work it would look good.

I also took a liking to Striker, Hiero and Classic Blog Theme (currently using) as well.

Not quite sure what the best is at this point since I'm new to this and more focused on getting content written and less on design, but hopefully these few themes can help point you in the direction of finding what you like and don't like in a theme.

I have also heard wonderful things about Astra! Thanks for the suggestions :)

Any specific recommendations for WordPress themes that allow you to sell specific packages (counselling etc) ?

I know there is WooCommerce plug-in for selling items, but

Hey Montana,

Rob's tutorial may offer you some help finding one: OR

You could also try Google searching for some examples. See screen print below for suggestions...

Hope you find this helpful.

Hi Montana, haven't seen you for awhile. I do not know of a theme relating to counselling but I will be searching for a different theme for myself. Will message you if I find anything relating to what you are looking for

Hey Montana,

How are you,?

Maxine

Oh I am alright, how are you doing Maxine?

Glad to hear you're coming along Montana.

If you need anything, let me know.

I am here for you.

Oh, I am good.

All the best
Maxine

woocommerce does have a theme attached if you want it.
but now with the gutenberg editor you have some woo blocks available to add products to your articles.
but have a look at astra theme and the attached theme addon.
there are prepackaged elementor themes setup for you.
good luck

I am wondering about moving my website. I am unable to afford my WA premium membership right now as my accounts are still frozen.

If I stay on the basic membership - do I

Hope it works out to your satisfaction Montana.

A have a similar situation with a domain name.

Yes, as Maxine recommend, contact Kyle and explain your unique situation. I think you paid already for the domain, so you should be fine.
Man!!
Stay strong, Montana!
Thinking on you! Sending you love!!
Aloha, Jenna

Contact Kyle for other options, Montana.

Hoping things work out for you. Seems you have put a lot into your training and site. All the best

Hey Montana,

Please do speak with Kyle before making your final decision. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/message/kyle
Be sure to select "Billing & Membership" so that you receive a blank textbox that will be clearly labeled "Contact Kyle or Carson". This way, your message will arrive in Kyle's inbox.

Hope you find this helpful.

Unfortunately there's no way to downgrade a Premium membership to a Starter one.

When you cancel, you will lose access to WA. You'll still be able to log into your site for up to 30 days by going to your site URL and adding /wp-admin at the end and logging in with the username and password for your account on that site.

After 30 days your site will be removed.

You can use a backup or transfer plugin to move your site to a new hosting service.
