Elegant Themes is the second paid theme I bought after Magazine3 . The reason I spent $ 70 to buy the Developer package is because the theme demo page is so beautiful. As the name suggests, the theme here is very sophisticated. I was mesmerized looking.
Currently, this additional provider owns 87 themes and 6 WordPress plugins. Only one small disappointment:
Although the provider claims to have 87 themes, they only focus on a few key themes and most of the 87 themes have a slightly old and outdated design compared to current trends. So the number 87 here is for advertising purposes only.
But in return, the main themes are constantly updated and very good quality as advertised.
Some outstanding themes and plugins
Divi Theme : Speaking in the language of phone vendors, Divi is the flagship theme of Elegant Themes. The trump card of this theme provider. I feel that most of the developers here just focus on developing this theme. Because updates roll out regularly.

This theme is very suitable as a portfolio site to introduce companies and corporations. The theme is very light so when installed the page load speed is very fast.
Elegant Themes integrates the Divi Builder plugin into the theme. Divi Builder gives you the freedom to be creative in designing websites without knowing how to code.
Extra Theme : This theme is suitable for news sites, and personal blogs. Personally, this theme is a bit flashy. Extra Theme is one of the two built-in Page Builder themes, so you don’t need to install a separate plugin.
Divi Builder : is a drag and drop page builder plugin. Especially with the recently released Divi 3.0 theme version, the builder function has changed completely. You can now design pages directly from the front-end. In addition, the speed of the Builder has also improved significantly.
However, as of this writing, the plugin still doesn’t have new functionality like in the Divi theme because the team at Elegant Theme needs more time to check to make sure the new Builder is compatible with all non-Elegant Themes themes.
Monarch Social Sharing – Allows you to install social sharing buttons in WordPress. I remember an error when using this plugin. That is it does not show the share button on the homepage. Finally after many updates, this basic error is fixed.
Talking about the support here, I rate it quite slowly. Perhaps Elegant Themes has a large customer base so it cannot respond quickly to all requests. It usually takes one to two days for your request to get a response.
Bloom Email Subscription Plugin for WordPress helps you to collect email list of your readers.
Promotion Elegant Themes
Unfortunately, Elegant Themes does not sell individual themes. You have to buy the whole theme package for as low as $89. In general, the theme price is a bit high, so you need to carefully consider your needs when choosing.
Currently, Elegant Themes has a 20% discount for life for an annual plan of only $70/year. Lifetime plan is $249. But if after one year of annual plan you want to upgrade to lifetime plan, you only need to pay $160.
