Have you seen Elementor?
Our flagship product, Layers has been acquired by the team at Elementor.
With a powerful, fast page builder, Elementor is the best way to get your site online with as little effort as possible.
This theme has been retired and is no longer being actively developed. Don’t worry, it should still work for some time and will continue to receive critical updates for up to one year from your original purchase date. Learn More Here

Support
Obox Themes & Plugins
Obox provides full support for your Obox themes and plugins to the extent of troubleshooting theme-related issues, assisting with setup and basic customization, usage questions and basic help with WooCommerce.
View our full support policy here.
Full setup and configuration of your theme and WooCommerce is included free upon initial setup. In the event of WordPress or theme corruption, malware attacks or other preventable issues requiring software to be reinstalled, we may be able to restore your site to an earlier point in time to aid in recovery, but will not be able to perform manual setup and configuration for you.
Please note that we are unable to offer full support for modified Obox themes or child themes. Once you modify the theme, it is considered a derivative and becomes your development responsibility. We do offer tips on child themes and managing modifications here:
Other Themes & Plugins
Third-party plugins and themes are not supported by us, with the exception of limited WooCommerce support, and may cause issues that impact your hosting environment. Please see the following for important Theme and Plugin information:

Hosting
We will provide full triage support for host-related issues such as PHP configuration, severe performance issues not related to your WordPress setup, the site being down or inaccessible and malware/attacks. Please contact Obox Support to report any of these issues and we will assist you with initial troubleshooting, then contact the network engineers for you if necessary.
Updates & Backup
Obox Instant manages routine backups of your site and database, as well as updates for WordPress. You are responsible for keeping your Theme and Plugins updated via the WordPress Dashboard.
Security
Our hosting service provider employs world class security technology throughout their Data Centres, including biometric authentication and RFID tag systems, and uses industry-standard monitoring techniques to help keep your site secure.
However, you are responsible for maintaining theme and plugin updates on your site, chosing 3rd-party products from reputable sources, and using strong passwords to secure your admin.
We also recommend installing the Bulletproof Security or Wordfence Security plugin for added WordPress security and notification.
If you think your site is being attacked or is infected with Malware, please see the following and/or contact Support.
