Support

We fully support operational components such as features usage, issue, bug, or the fix that are mainly related to the theme and to make the theme working properly. Please go to http://uxbarn.ticksy.com/ for our support site.

Additional Note

This theme is for self-hosted WordPress sites only (wordpress.org). It is not compatible with “wordpress.com” sites. Here are the differences between the two: https://uxbarn.com/go/wordpress-org-vs-wordpress-com/

Most photos in the live preview are not included in the package. However, in the XML file for import, we have instead created all image placeholders for you so you can quickly apply your own images to the areas.
