About AppThemes Hirebee 1.4.10

HireBee, from AppThemes, is a freelance marketplace theme. Employers post projects, freelancers bid on them, and you set up the pricing plans and take a cut of each project. The model is the same one used by sites such as Elance, Freelancer and 99designs, applied to whatever niche you pick.

The listing labels this product a static HTML template, but its own description calls it a WordPress theme, so treat it as a WordPress theme and not as plain HTML files. The file on record is version 1.4.10 from December 2021. Test it on a staging WordPress site first and read the documentation in the package.

Requirements

WordPress

Key features

Project posting by employers: Employers publish projects that freelancers can respond to.
Freelancer bidding: Freelancers start the bidding on a project.
Pricing plans: You set up the pricing plans that employers or freelancers pay for.
Commission model: Built around the site owner taking a cut of each project.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Starting a niche freelance marketplace on WordPress
Site owners who want to earn from plans and a commission on projects

Look elsewhere if

Plain brochure sites or blogs, which don't need a bidding system
Traditional job boards where employers only post paid job ads

How to install AppThemes Hirebee 1.4.10

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Find the installable theme zip
Theme packages often bundle the theme, a child theme, plugins and docs. The installable theme is the zip that has style.css at its top level.
3
Upload it to WordPress
Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme → Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.
4
Install the recommended plugins
Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.

Notes for this product

The listing doesn't state which AppThemes plugins or payment add-ons it needs. Check the documentation in the package before building.

Getting started: using AppThemes Hirebee 1.4.10

Install on a staging WordPress site. Upload and activate it as a WordPress theme, not as HTML files.
Read the documentation. Note which companion plugins and payment options it expects.
Set up your pricing plans. Create the plans and decide how your commission on each project works.
Post a test project and place a test bid. Use two test accounts to run the full cycle before opening to the public.

Common problems and fixes

“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

Why it happens: The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
How to fix it: Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.

Demo import stops part-way or times out

Why it happens: The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
How to fix it: Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.

Pages look broken right after activating

Why it happens: The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
How to fix it: Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.
