Frequently Asked Questions

Getting Started
With 17+ themes to choose, we’re likely to have one that’ll work for you. Most of our themes have built-in color and layout options available, so that you can customize each to your particular taste.

When looking for a theme, we suggest visiting the demos for each theme that interests you. Pick your theme based on how close it is to your ideal website, but don’t worry about an exact match. Your pages, content, fonts, colors, and more can be changed after you install & active the theme.
Rubik Themes is a good mixture of high-end functionality and intuitive controls appealing to both newcomers and experienced developers. Having said that, there is always a bit of a learning curve when you use any new product and this is not different with our products. If you have any troubles, you can visit our Support Center for helps.
Like using any WordPress theme, you’ll need to own your own domain and have WordPress installed on a web host of your choice. You’ll also need to have a basic understanding of how to move around and work within the WordPress dashboard. WordPress.com does not allow theme installation. Our themes are made, with love, for the self-hosted version of WordPress (WordPress.org).

After you download the .zip package from ThemeForest, unzip it. You’ll see a file .zip, which is the main theme file that needs to be uploaded and installed. The filename is usually the theme name, for example: if the theme is Exploore, then the file name is exploore.zip, Hearty– hearty.zip, etc. Here at Rubik Themes, we always name the .zip file the same as the theme name.

To install a WordPress theme from a .zip file, login to your WordPress dashboard and click on Appearance → Themes. Then click on the Add New button at the top.

On the next screen, click on the Upload Theme button at the top. You will be prompted to choose the zip file that you downloaded earlier. Select the file and click Install Now.

The required plugins must be installed to make the theme work as expected while the recommended are just optional as the website still work without them, but it’s still better to have them installed.
