Recommended PHP Configuration Limits

Many issues that you may run into such as: white screen, demo content fails when importing, empty page content and other similar issues are all related to low PHP configuration limits. The solution is to increase the PHP limits. You can do this on your own, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

  • max_input_vars = 3000
  • memory_limit = 128M
  • max_execution_time = 300

Building Hompage

Building your Home page

Now you can start fiddling with Visual Composer to build your home page with any design that you like.

In case you don't have time for experience with it, you can switch to Classic Mode and use one of the shortcode sets provided below to build your frontshop based on one of the pre-made home page we offer.

To create a page similar to Homepage in our the demo, choose the Classic Mode and switch to the Text tab, then paste this code into the content of your page:

Shortcode set for Home Basic

Shortcode set for Home Semi Transparent Header

Shortcode set for Home Simple

And updating, view more demo at: Porton Demo

Paste one of these content into your Homepage, choose Template "Home Pages", then publish this page and set it as your frontpage(8.1. Settings a static page as Home) in the Wordpress Settings panel.
