    Hi Sujay,

    Can we use these tips with ready made sites from ANY vendor? For example, Divi from Elegant Themes comes with several “layout packs”. Essentially, these are pre built sites like what Astra offers. Can I import these with Wpportfolio to create a portfolio page like Astra pre built sites?

    What is the best way to add a “buy button” so that a visitor can buy the pre built site from the live demo?
    Thanks

      Thanks for asking that Sheila, I wanted ask the same thing for adding a buy button to the portfolio page. I was planning to make the portfolio item open to a description that has a buy now button.

    Namaste,

    Thanks for the detailed info.
    I have Astra Business Toolkit, I wanted to include Astra Ready sites and Clients websites I built. How to separate them With categories?

    1. Sujay Pawar Profile Pic

      Our WP Portfolio plugin allows you to create categories as you wish. You can use this feature to separate / categorize the sites as you wish.. 🙂

      You can categorize these different portfolios using categories/tags in the WP Portfolio and then use the shortcode to display only one category at a time.
      Just one thing to note here is that – One shortcode will work per page, you cannot add multiple shortcodes on a page.

    Thank you for this awesome tutorial!

    I indeed do it for my clients but I question I want to ask is, if i purchase Essential Toolkit and create demo websites can i share the premium license be shared with my clients as well?
    I mean can i install premium websites on my client’s websites?

      Hello,

      You can use the free as well as premium website demos to build websites for your clients. However, you cannot sell or re-distribute the license key with anyone.

      Please feel free to contact us through our support center, if you have any further queries.

    hi
    Can i create my own ready site then import to library of starter site. After that, client is only 1 click to import to their website. No need I manually clone or migrate

    1. Team Astra Profile Pic

      Hello,

      Yes, that can be done!

      Option 2 in Step 1 says that you can build your own demo sites and show them in the portfolio.

      1. danna Profile Pic

        I’d like to know this as well. Option 2 Step 1 is just a way to display the portfolio of sites, not the actual import process. The question refers to the ability for my client to automatically import the site, the same way that I can automatically import a starter site from Astra.

    Using a plugin like ACF or toolset can I add custom fields to the WP Portfolio custom post type(Portfolio Items)? I’d like to add a few more fields like Website Description, Key Features, and a few more images.

    1. Team Astra Profile Pic

      Hi,

      There is no such direct option from the WP Portfolio plugin but you can achieve it manually with custom code. You can override plugin templates to add your custom fields meta. Can you please open a support ticket here so we can discuss more about it.

    Many thanks to the information on the page and some comments I was able to solve it. This helped me a lot, because it made it easier for me to do projects that I had pending and it didn’t work out.

    Hi !
    I have downloaded the portfolio and the demo sites, but when I go to the portfolio page using the shortcode, the images are really long, showing the whole site, instead of a thumbnail as on your “ready-website” page…
    Is there a way to change this view, or would I have to create thumbnails site by site ?

    SO HELPFUL! Duly noted in my to do list with some inspiration to create my own demo websites 😀 Just bought Astra Pro this month and it is so cool to discover all the new things!

    Hello and thanks a lot for this great article
    I have two questions. I will be appreciate if you can help me and others who have the same questions
    1. You have written about 3 ways to host Ready Websites. Could you please tell me which way is better? Which way is the one that you’re using it for Astra Ready Websites (https://git-staging.wpastra.com/website-templates/)?

    2. Is it possible (and secure) if I make a zip file from the exported site that is created by All in One WP Migratin, and add it to a woocommerce product (with changing my main username and password) so that customers can purchase a Ready Website and import it by themselves??? (If it is not a good way, could you please suggest another plugin. For example, is it One Click Demo Import is OK for this goal?)
    Thanks a million in advance
