About Soledad – Multi-Concept Blog/Magazine/News AMP WordPress Theme 8.5.3

Soledad is a multipurpose WordPress theme sold on ThemeForest, aimed mainly at blogs, magazines and news sites. Its main strength is how much of the site you can lay out without code: it has builders for the header and footer, for single posts, and for category, tag, search and archive pages, plus a mega menu builder, all configured from the WordPress dashboard.

It works with both Elementor and WPBakery Page Builder and ships its own custom elements for each, so you can design pages in either. A large library of ready-made homepages and templates gives you a starting layout, though the cloud template library connects to the developer's servers and may depend on a licence.

Soledad also adds features publishers ask for: text-to-speech, live blogging, a post paywall, front-end post submission, bookmarks, author following, AMP support, structured data, in-feed ad spaces and a dark layout. It can run a WooCommerce shop too. That breadth makes it a heavy theme, so switch off what you don't use.

Key features

Header and footer builders
Design the header and footer with multiple layouts and a visual builder.
Post and archive builders
Build the layout of single posts, and of category, tag, search and archive pages.
Elementor and WPBakery support
Use either page builder, with custom elements made for each.
Mega menu builder
Create flexible mega menus, including category mega menus.
Ready-made homepages and templates
Start from a library of homepage layouts and cloud templates. Online template downloads may depend on a licence.
Publisher tools
Text-to-speech, live blog, post paywall, front-end post submission, bookmarks and author following.
AMP, schema and speed options
AMP support and structured data for search, with performance settings to keep pages quick.
Ads, galleries and sliders
In-feed and in-post ad spaces, gallery styles and many featured-slider and blog layouts.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

  • Online magazines and news sites that want to control every layout without code
  • Publishers who plan to monetise with ads or a paywall
  • Bloggers who want many ready-made layouts and the option to add a shop later

Look elsewhere if

  • Small sites that need a very light theme, since Soledad's breadth adds weight
  • Sites built mainly with the block editor and full-site editing
  • Anyone who needs the online template library to work without a licence

How to install Soledad – Multi-Concept Blog/Magazine/News AMP WordPress Theme 8.5.3

  1. 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. 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. 3

    Upload it to WordPress

    Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme → Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.

  4. 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

  • After activating, install the plugins in the required-plugins notice before importing a demo or building with the theme's builders.

Getting started: using Soledad – Multi-Concept Blog/Magazine/News AMP WordPress Theme 8.5.3

  1. Install the theme and required plugins. Activate Soledad and install what its notice asks for, including its companion plugins.
  2. Choose a starting layout. Import a demo homepage, or start from a template that matches your site.
  3. Pick your page builder. Use Elementor or WPBakery for pages, and the theme's own builders for header, footer and posts.
  4. Build the header and footer. Use the builders to set the header layout, menus and footer columns.
  5. Design the post layout. Set up how a single post and the category and archive pages should look.
  6. Add ad spaces and sliders. Place featured sliders and ad slots where they suit your content.
  7. Turn off what you don't use. Disable unused modules, then test speed and the layout on phones.

Common problems and fixes

The site feels slow
Why it happens
Soledad includes many features, and a large demo adds heavy images, sliders and scripts.
How to fix it
Turn off unused modules in the theme options, use page caching, compress images and avoid loading several large sliders on one page.
Cloud templates or a demo won't import
Why it happens
Online template downloads depend on a connection to the developer's servers and a licence, which this download doesn't include, or the server's time and memory limits are too low.
How to fix it
Build from the theme's builders and layouts instead, raise your host's limits for imports, and use Request an update from your account for a newer file.
Elementor or WPBakery custom elements are missing
Why it happens
The companion plugin that provides the elements isn't installed or active.
How to fix it
Install and activate the plugins in the theme's 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.
