FAQ

General

Do you offer refunds? Expand

Since my products are non-tangible and cannot technically be returned or exchanged, I unfortunately cannot offer any refunds after the purchase is made.

Please be sure to check the demo of the theme you’re interested in as well as any applicable requirements before making your purchase. If you have questions on a product, please reach out to us here before purchasing.

What kind of support is included? Expand

Because I want to make sure that you’re getting the most out of your new product, I have a few different options that you can choose from. My free, general support includes tutorials for the installation of your theme to look like the demo site.

If you’d like support in terms of additional customization, please check out our customization options here.

Read more about my support policy here.

How do I download the files after purchase? Expand

Once your payment is completed, you’ll receive an order confirmation email with the download link immediately. Depending on the product you purchased, you'll either see a link to a ZIP folder or a collection of files delivered both to your inbox and on your screen after your payment.

If you feel your payment has gone through and you still haven’t received a download link, please reach out to me, and I’ll make sure you get the files you purchased.

Do you offer custom designs? Expand

I do take on a limited number of custom projects throughout the year. If you're interested in working with me on a custom website design, templates, or something else, please feel free to reach out!

WordPress Themes

Do your themes work with Blogger or WordPress.com? Expand

My themes do not work with any platform other than WordPress. If you have a self-hosted website or a Business WordPress.com account, you can use my themes.

How much code do I need to know? Expand

None! I made our themes with the goal of having them be as easy to use for you as possible. You can use the themes as is with no additional coding, or if you’d like to change the colors you can easily update them as long as you know the HEX codes you’d like to use.

If you’d like additional customizations for your theme, but you don’t have the time or knowledge to do it yourself, please reach out to me, and I’ll get back to you with a quote based on how much work you need to have done.

Can I change the colors easily? Expand

Yes, on all of my themes, you can easily update the colors to match your own brand by going to Appearance > Customize, from there you should see where you can make updates.

Can I upload my own logo? Expand

Absolutely! To add your own logo, simply go to Appearance > Customize > Header image. There you’ll be able to upload your file as well as see the recommended file size.

Can I edit the CSS? Expand

If you’re comfortable with your knowledge of CSS, then you’re welcome to make any edits you want to! Unfortunately, if something breaks and you need my help to come in and fix the theme, there will be an hourly charge required with a minimum of one hour billed.

Do your themes support full width content? Expand

Yes! For the themes that display a sidebar, you can select the layout to either be full-width or to have a sidebar. If you’d like your whole site to have no sidebar, simply select the full width option by going to Genesis > Theme Settings > Default Layout.

"The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet" Expand

If you're getting this error, you're trying to upload the wrong file to your website. Make sure you're only trying to install the theme file onto your website.

Do I need to purchase the Genesis Framework? Expand

Yes. My themes are built on the Genesis Framework, but I don't include it in purchases. It’s good to purchase your own copy of Genesis, as you get access to all of the Genesis specific tutorials, and you can receive the one-on-one customer support that StudioPress provide. You can purchase Genesis here.

Do they work with Gutenberg/WordPress 5.0? Expand

Yes, all of my themes have been tested and updated to work with the Gutenberg editor with no issue. Full and wide-width content only work on full-width pages (those without sidebars); however, the rest of the features of the new editor should be accessible with no issues.

Do you provide the demo content? Expand

The demo content does not come with your theme purchase. In the theme documentation that comes with every theme purchase, I walk you through adding the widgets to the sidebar, setting up your menu, contact form, and social media icons.

Are your themes mobile responsive? Expand

Yes, I do extensive testing to make sure all of my themes will work on the most popular device sizes available.

What is included with my purchase? Expand

When you purchase a Coded Creative theme, you'll receive the theme file, a widgets file to help make sure your website matches the demo, a Quick Start guide with the links to the fonts and stock photography used on the demo, and an Installation guide.

Will I receive any theme updates? Expand

Yes, as a customer you'll receive lifetime updates to my themes available via your WordPress dashboard. I send out email updates to customers with details about major releases so you'll know what's been added or revised.

Do you offer customization services? Expand

Yes! I will gladly work with you to customize the theme to best suit your needs. Please reach out with details about what you're looking for, and I'll send over a quote for the cost of the work.

Social Media Templates

Do I need Photoshop to use the templates? Expand

No. All of my social media templates come with both Photoshop and Canva versions, so if you're only familiar with Canva you can use that version.

Are the fonts or photos included? Expand

All of my templates use fonts that are free to download. You'll find links to download the fonts in the Quick Start guide that came with your purchase.

Stock photos are not included with the templates unless otherwise noted. A link to purchase the stock photos can be found in the Quick Start guide as well.

Will these templates work with my WordPress theme? Expand

Yes, I designed my social media templates to match their parent theme in my shop. However, you can easily mix and match the theme and templates you use.

How do I edit the templates? Expand

You can find detailed documentation on how to use all of my templates in my help center. Simply make sure you locate the template collection you purchased as well as the format you're wanting to use (Photoshop vs. Canva).

This template doesn't look right! Expand

Every now and then one of the Canva templates may be edited by another buyer. If this happens, shoot me a quick email, and I'll get that fixed for you in no time.

Do I need a paid Canva account? Expand

Good news, no! You only need a free Canva account to use my social media templates.

A paid Canva account will allow you to upload your own fonts and lock in your brand colors; however, those are just extra features you don't necessarily need.

Done-For-You installation

Can you help me setup my theme? Expand

Absolutely! I know that sometimes it’s just easier to pass that stuff off to someone else, so I’m happy to help you! You can learn more about the done-for-you install here.

Will you help setup my domain and hosting? Expand

Good news, friend! You likely don't need help getting that setup. Check out my getting started guide, and be sure to reach out to your chosen web host. Usually they're very happy to help you get setup.

How long does the installation take? Expand

I aim to get all installation services done within 24 hours from the time of payment within Monday - Friday, 9a - 4p.

If you purchase your installation outside of this time frame or on a US holiday, I'll get back to you on the next business day.

Do you upload my content? Expand

My installation service includes getting your site setup like the demo of the theme you purchased. So I will upload content, but only that for the sections shown in the demo of your theme. Any additional content will need to be uploaded by you.

Today, on my oldest daughter’s 3rd birthday the Today, on my oldest daughter’s 3rd birthday the first woman officially became the first Vice President Elect of our country. For the first time in 4 years I feel hope for my daughters’ future.

There is still so much work to be done. So. Much. I hope that we, as a nation, will continue to do that work.

To protect Black lives.
To listen to Black women.
To care for our neighbors (and keep wearing a damn mask).
To protect our planet.
To move our nation forward.

I pray, and fight, and speak up, and donate to make sure my girls get to grow up and live in a country that makes them proud to call home and a country they feel safe in. Because that’s what our kids and our neighbors deserve.

So let’s celebrate today. But keep the fight going tomorrow.

Stop 🛑 waiting until the perfect moment to show Stop 🛑 waiting until the perfect moment to show up and start working toward your goals.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a perfectionist and a painfully indecisive person, I've spent so much time waiting. Waiting for the perfect idea, for the perfect time to post, for the perfect design, for the perfect collaboration, for the perfect offer, for the perfect audience.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Does that sound like you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you stuck in a holding pattern, waiting for everything to be just ✨ right ✨ or perfect before you take action?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Be honest... how's that working out for you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me give you some tough love, friend. If you want to grow your business, get those dreamy clients, make consistent sales, and hit your goals... you can't sit around waiting for perfect. 🙅🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Listen, I've been there. But if you want your business or your blog to look like hers then you have to do SOMETHING. You have to start right now... show up today for your audience. And then again tomorrow. And then the next day. Share your new piece of content, show off your latest offer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏽 Stop hiding and waiting for perfect before believing in yourself enough to make things happen for you. 👈🏽⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You're worthy of everything you dream of and so much more, so let's start doing what it takes to get there!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When I set out to create the June theme, I started When I set out to create the June theme, I started thinking about what bloggers, specifically want to accomplish with their site and what they'd need to accomplish that.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know most bloggers are trying to earn an income through sponsored posts and ads, and to do that you need a certain audience size and page views.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's talk about page views specifically. One way to increase views is to work on keeping your audience on your site longer by making relevant content easy to find.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can make relevant content easy to find by:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Showing related posts at the bottom of your individual blog posts. Most of my themes automatically have this feature built in, but I also like the Related Posts for WP plugin for this!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ Linking to related content within your blog posts. If you're working on seasonal content right now, think about how you can link back to some of your Fall or Winter posts from last year in your new blog posts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ Add a link to your categories to your menu or your sidebar. This will make it super easy for your readers to click through to a category they want to see more about - like chicken dinners or cool weather outfits.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4️⃣ Swap out your featured content. Another thing you can do is show off your seasonal content in featured areas on your site. If you're a craft blogger, maybe over the next month and a half you link to Halloween-themed crafts with kids.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Which one of these things do you want to improve or implement on your site? Tell me in the comments ⬇️

So you want to take your blog from hobby to money So you want to take your blog from hobby to money maker.... raise your hand if that's you right now... 🙋🏽‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At some point every blogger faces the decision to keep blogging for fun or to turn your blog into a money making brand (not that doing that isn't fun though).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Making that transition from hobby to brand can be a bit confusing. Here are a few quick ways you can start working on that transition:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Decide how you want to monetize. There are so many ways you can do it - from ads to digital products and more. Think about what makes you excited and what you feel comfortable doing.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ Create a content strategy. What do you want to be known for? Don't forget to include your audience - what do they want to see more of? If you don't know, ask them!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ Consider your brand + blog design. If you've been using a free design, it's time to consider working with a designer or getting a premade look for your site!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Taking your blog more serious and turning it into a money making brand can be overwhelming, but start slow and with intention and you'll be more successful along the way.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
