About Richard Gore – Writer Portfolio Elementor WordPress Theme
Richard Gore is a WordPress theme for writers and authors who want a portfolio site. It is built to be edited with Elementor, and the store files it under Elementor, portfolio and premium theme categories. Its origin is listed as TemplateMonster.
The listing does not describe pages, demos or plugins, so check the documentation in the package for the page layouts and the plugins it expects. The file was released in May 2020 and has no version number on record. Test it with your current WordPress, PHP and Elementor versions on a staging site first.
Requirements
- Elementor
Key features
- Writer portfolio design
- Named for writers, so the layout centres on showing your work and bio.
- Elementor editing
- Pages are meant to be built and changed in Elementor's drag and drop editor.
- Portfolio category
- Filed under portfolio, which suits displaying samples and publications.
- Premium theme package
- Listed as a premium WordPress theme with documentation in the package.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Writers, authors and journalists who want a personal portfolio site
- Elementor users who prefer editing visually
Look elsewhere if
- Sites that don't use Elementor, since the theme is built around it
- Online shops, since the listing doesn't mention WooCommerce styling

Getting started: using Richard Gore – Writer Portfolio Elementor WordPress Theme
- Install on a staging copy. The file is from 2020, so test it with your current WordPress, PHP and Elementor versions.
- Install Elementor and the required plugins. Follow the notice shown after activation.
- Import the demo if one is included. The listing doesn't say whether a demo is included, so check the package.
- Edit pages in Elementor. Replace the sample text with your bio, writing samples and contact details.
Common problems and fixes
Theme sections are missing or show as plain blocks in Elementor
- Why it happens
- A companion plugin that provides the theme's Elementor widgets isn't installed or active.
- How to fix it
- Install and activate the plugins in the required-plugins notice, then reload the editor.
“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.
