About iThemes DisplayBuddy Carousel 2.0.36
DisplayBuddy Carousel is made by iThemes and is one of several DisplayBuddy products in the store, alongside Billboard, Frolic, Rotating Images, Rotating Text and Slideshow. The name points to a carousel display component, not a full site design, and it is not BackupBuddy, the iThemes backup product.
The store lists it as a WordPress theme, but the listing has no feature list and does not say whether the package is a theme or a plugin. The file on record is version 2.0.36 from August 2019. Open the package, read its documentation, and test on a staging site before using it.

Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Owners of an iThemes-based site who want a carousel display

How to install iThemes DisplayBuddy Carousel 2.0.36
- 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

- 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 say if the package is a theme or a plugin, or if it needs another iThemes product. Check the documentation in the package.
Getting started: using iThemes DisplayBuddy Carousel 2.0.36
- Check what the package contains. Open the download and see whether it holds a theme folder or a plugin, then read the documentation.
- Install it the matching way. Upload it under Themes or Plugins in WordPress, depending on what the package holds.
- Find where the carousel is configured. Follow the documentation to see where you add items and choose where the carousel appears.
- Add items and test. Add your content, view the page on a phone and a desktop, and check the carousel moves smoothly.
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.
