About Kuist – Photography Series Portfolio WordPress Theme 2.0

Kuist is a WordPress theme made for photographers who present their work as series. It was originally sold on ThemeForest, and in the store it is filed under portfolio, blog, multipurpose and business service themes.

The listing gives no demo list or feature breakdown. Open the documentation in the package to see its gallery layouts, page templates and bundled plugins, and check how it handles a series of photos before you plan your portfolio around it.

The version on file is 2.0 and it was released in July 2019. That is an older theme file, so test it with your current WordPress and PHP versions on a staging site before you use it on a live portfolio.

Requirements

WordPress

Key features

Photography series portfolio: Named for presenting photo work as series or projects.
Blog support: Filed under blog, so you can publish articles next to the portfolio.
Multipurpose and business use: Also filed under multipurpose and business service themes.
ThemeForest premium theme: Originally a ThemeForest theme, so it should come with the author's documentation.
Customisation options: The listing doesn't detail the options; the documentation in the package covers them.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Photographers who want to present work as separate series
Creatives who want a portfolio with a blog on one site

Look elsewhere if

Sites that need a full online shop; the listing doesn't mention e-commerce

How to install Kuist – Photography Series Portfolio WordPress Theme 2.0

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

ThemeForest themes often ask you to install companion plugins after activation. Check the notice and the documentation for what Kuist needs.

Getting started: using Kuist – Photography Series Portfolio WordPress Theme 2.0

Test on a staging site. The file dates from July 2019, so install it on a copy of your site first.
Install the plugins it asks for. After activating, add any required or recommended plugins from the notice.
Prepare your images. Resize and optimise your photographs before uploading so galleries load quickly.
Create your series. Add portfolio items for each series using the post type or template the documentation describes.
Set menus and check on mobile. Build the main menu and review the galleries on a phone and a tablet.

Common problems and fixes

Portfolio galleries look slow or images appear blurry

Why it happens: Very large originals are being uploaded, or WordPress is serving a smaller size than the layout needs.
How to fix it: Upload moderately sized, compressed images and regenerate thumbnails with a thumbnail plugin after changing themes.

“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.
