About WooThemes Object Premium Theme 1.7.2

Object is a WooThemes theme for blogging with photos and video. It was built before WooThemes turned its focus to WooCommerce, so it is a classic multimedia blog theme rather than a shop theme. You publish posts with images or embedded video, and the front page and category pages show them in a grid of one to five columns.

Each post's uploaded images load automatically into a JavaScript gallery slider, and video goes in through an embed field where you paste the embed code. There are fifteen colour schemes, theme options for layout and colours, five custom widgets, page templates for full width, archives and a sitemap, and a .po file for translation.

The file on record is version 1.7.2 and dates from October 2017, and the theme itself is older than that. Test it with your current WordPress and PHP versions on a staging site first, and expect some features, such as the Flickr widget and old embed codes, to need checking.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

  • Photo and video bloggers who want a simple grid of posts
  • Owners of older WooThemes sites who need this exact theme to restore or maintain one
  • Small personal sites that don't need a page builder

Look elsewhere if

  • WooCommerce shops, since this is a blog theme, not a store theme
  • New sites that need block editor styling and recent theme features

How to install WooThemes Object Premium Theme 1.7.2

  1. 1

    Download the file

    Open My Account β†’ 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 β†’ Themes β†’ Add New Theme β†’ 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

  • This is a WooFramework-era theme. Its settings live in the theme's own options panel rather than only in the Customizer.

Getting started: using WooThemes Object Premium Theme 1.7.2

  1. Install on staging first. Because the file dates from 2017, try it on a staging copy with your current WordPress and PHP.
  2. Open the theme options. Pick a colour scheme and set the column layout for the front page and categories.
  3. Publish photo posts. Upload images to a post so the gallery slider picks them up.
  4. Add video posts. Paste the video's embed code into the post's embed field.
  5. Set up widgets and pages. Add the About, Popular and Recent widgets, and create archive and sitemap pages from the templates.

Common problems and fixes

Embedded videos don't appear
Why it happens
Old embed code, or code using http on an https site, is blocked by the browser.
How to fix it
Paste the current iframe embed code from the video host, using an https address.
Warnings or deprecated notices appear on the site
Why it happens
The theme's older code is running on a newer PHP version.
How to fix it
Turn off on-screen debug output on the live site, and test on staging to see whether anything actually breaks.
The Flickr widget shows nothing
Why it happens
It relies on a Flickr feed that may have changed since the theme was written.
How to fix it
Remove the widget, or replace it with a current gallery or image widget.
β€œThe 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.
β€œThe 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.
