Are you ready to read this article and you very well know what I am going to discuss? At this time education and other themes are the very important part for your WordPress LMS. The most important consideration when choosing the theme for an e-learning site is how it will deliver your content most effectively to your student. That is of superior importance.

So your prey for the theme should start with your student in mind. But when you dig deep in your search, then there should be some things to know about. Today, I want to outline the most common mistakes that we have seen when choosing a theme for giving our customers online courses with WordPress so that you can avoid them.

Step 1: Do not limit your search to free themes.

I have interacted with countless customers who are not paying for the theme. Their reasoning is clear … thousands of free themes are available. Why pay for one?

The answer… because this is your business! If you were opening a restaurant, you would not choose a place in the bad part of the city, because the rent was low, did you? No! You will invest in one place with people with solid traffic and those who want to spend $ 4 on coffee because you need to sell the coffee to pay the rent.

Each successful business requires a financial investment. While one of the many free themes available may be right for your site and your customers, do not block your search there. If you get $ 50 themes that will save you a lot of time in configuring the style of your website and will allow you to make efficient changes, then consider it as an investment in your business.

Step 2 : Do not start your search without your “Necessary” requirements list.

It’s easy to start browsing and be honest when I’m going to a web design project, I often browse through the theme marketplace for inspiration. We use the amazing WPLMS Page Builder plugin that gives you a blank slate to work, but sometimes it is useful to start with a few ideas for me.

But with so many themes available, it is easy to preview the demo and read the feature lists and before you know it, you’ve just ruined “browsing” hours. You can make the selection process more efficient by writing a list of those things without which you can not live … color schemes, navigation elements, etc.

Step 3 : Do not trust your theme for functionality.

I’ve written about this recently, but the WordPress community to use the theme to design your site and plugin to perform the best practice functionality within the community.

I can not tell you how many people come after the unbelievable disappointment of WP courseware that they have chosen “LMS Theme” and now they want to change their themes, they have to continue their course without the theme. Now there is no way. Therefore, after learning this lesson from the hard way, they are connected with the work of fully rebuilding their course (s) using the plugin.

There are hundreds of themes that promise to pack “all in one” solution by packing functionality into the theme. It is easy to tempt you to save a few bucks by killing two birds with a stone, but for a long time, you will end up with serious boundaries and despair.

Step 4 : Do not forget about the responsiveness.

Over 70% of students have enrolled in the online course report that they have used that course at least once from mobile devices. Interestingly, about 50% of the reports are that they have accessed online courses on mobile devices while on the bed, but this is another story.

If you are evaluating the theme to use with your WordPress LMS plugin, you have to test potential topics for mobile feedback. Most of the topics are dedicated sites for live previews, so there is no excuse for collecting your phone and tablet and selecting those previews for a test drive.

Thank you so much for reading this article I hope so this article is useful for you and you have enjoyed it. Please choose the best theme for your website. In my opinion, WPLMS is the fabulous theme for education and other websites but this is you choose which is better for your website.
