“Maisha Lite” is a free version of our latest charity WordPress theme “Maisha”. Although being a stripped down version it is still very capable and can certainly be used for different projects. This theme is inspired by “Virunga Movie” documentary that we can’t recommend enough. It is modern, responsive and accessibility ready theme, which is unfortunately still quite rare in theme world.
If you try and love this theme and you decide to use it for your site please donate the “Virunga” project. They are doing the hard work trying to preserve this 90 years old national park and last mountain gorillas in the world. Every donation is much appreciated.
Hi, Thanks for providing such a Great theme. I’m very interested in the Maisha-Pro theme. But I have three questions: 1. On the front page there is a black box with text. Is it possible to remove the box? In the pro version I mean. 2. Is it possible to change the colors of the black box and the text? 3. About the social media icons: is it possible to change the colors easily in the pro version (so without using css or html?). Thank you in advance and greetings from Amsterdam.
1. Yes 2. Yes, with a line of CSS that I can provide via the support system 3. It is possible to change the background color (orange) of the socials bar by changing the main accent color in the customizer. It is not possible to change color individually for each icon.
Hope that helps a bit. If you have any further questions just send an email via our pre-sale form.
I would like to change the color of buttons on my contact form (default orange). Also, I would like to change the color of the menu items when I hover over them (also: default orange). Could you please tell me how I can do this?
These changes in the “Lite” version would require CSS code. We are unfortunately not able to provide assistance with code customization for our free themes. However, if you’re not familiar with CSS I can recommend checking the SiteOrigin CSS plugin that enables you to make CSS changes even without knowing how to code.
Hi, I’m using this theme for my personal brand website and have found it to be very flexible. I have purchashased it through wordpress.com with a premium account. According to the theme website, I should be able to create a projects or stories page with a specific template in the page attributes, but that is not one of my options in the drop-down menu. Can you help me figure out what I am missing?
