New: Elementor integration
Another top theme that has chosen to cooperate with the Elementor page builder. Not a bad idea because Elementor is of course one of the best pagebuilders out there for WP. Definitely an improvement for the theme. It is nevertheless best to upgrade to the PRO version of Elementor.
The7 demo-websites
The7 has more than 40 ready-made demo websites that can be installed with one click. You will find several beautiful lay-ous for every conceivable niche from which you can start your new site. Adjust the images, texts et cetera to quickly achieve your own style.
The7 review: 1000+ theme options?
The-7 theme is one of the most versatile you can imagine. I have not checked them, but according to Dream-Theme, The7 has more than 1000+ theme options and 250+ page options as shown in the image below.
Shortcodes
The theme uses a full version of the WP Bakery pagebuilder, this plug-in takes care of the use of the short codes. This sought after pagebuilder costs a whopping 64 dollars. In The7 there are almost $ 200 worth of extra third-party plug-ins. In principle, one should always keep theme and shortcodes separate from each other. In this way the shortcodes still work after installing a new theme. With The7 this is not possible unless you purchase the plug-in separately later for $ 64. Adding shortcodes via the WP Bakery pagebuilder is very simple on the other hand.
Extra plug-ins
As a writer of this The-7 review, I was also impressed by the many free plug-ins in the theme. So this concerns the WP Bakery pagebuilder, but also the best add-on for it: Ultimate Add-ons. Furthermore you get Convert Plus (Pop-ups), Go Pricing and Slider Revolution 6. The Slider plug-in is my favorite when it comes to sliders and works extremely accurately, you can set the slides for all devices such as laptop or mobile.
Design Wizzard
Something few premium themes even offer is a Wizzard that lets you set all sorts of things such as header, footer, logo and so on. This is of course perfect for people who have never created a website, you can forget so little.
Import functions
The import function lets you install complete demo websites complete with images and slides. But the Importer is also able to import a single page of a demo via the URL you specified. You can use a few pages of different demos in your own design. Most themes that I know cannot do this.
Compatible with WPML
Ready for translation with WPML with which you can create multilingual websites. The theme itself is already available in 10 different languages so you do not have to translate these languages yourself, only your own content.
The theme is compatible with all known plug-ins including for example: WooCommerce, WPML, Yoast SEO, All in One WP Migration, W3 Total Cache and more.
The7 theme review final words
There is about this beautiful theme which is practically always discounted and available for only $ 39 much more to tell of course. But if your interest is aroused, you can use the button below to take a look at the theme page on Themeforest where everything is explained in scents and colors.
HUB THEME (Hub vs The7)
Hub is currently in the top 10 most sold on Themeforest...
HUB THEME REVIEW
In this Hub Theme review for [2023] we look at why this theme is gaining popularity so quickly. In their own words, 2 years of preparation to create the best theme ever. The question is whether she succeeded. Until now, the theme has a perfect rating! The theme has many features and no less than 600+ pre-made designs to start with in an impressive 60+ complete website demos.
HUB RATINGS
Below you can see the average rating of the Hub Theme. On the Themeforest Marketplace, this is the highest score that you will find for Wordpress themes, higher than 5.0 is not possible. With this, the theme keeps up to date with successful themes such as Astra and Divi that also have a rating of 5.0 but they are not sold on the same marketplace.
HUB INSTALLATION AND DEMOS
We recommend using the 600+ ready-to-go design sections or installing one of the 60+ ready-to-go website demos. As a newcomer to the market, Hub already offers so many very beautiful complete designs for all types of niches and shops. There will of course be more and more.
Hub-Theme comes with a great Visual Editor. Normally I am not fond of themes with their own Editors, but this one is really special and soon everything can be edited with Elementor.
HUB SPEEDTEST
We perform a speed test with the theme under quite optimal conditions, so with cache plug-in and all images optimized. This theme indicates that it is specialized on loading times and the results are indeed very good as can be seen in the image below.

HUB THEME REVIEW SHOPS
With regard to web shops, the Hub theme also delivered an extremely good result. This theme can compete with the best themes for web shops in the market (Woocommerce). The image below shows a few examples of very professional looking shops. Hub also offers features such as Ajax search, Infinite product loading on a single page, Off-canvas cart and filters.
With the ThemeBuilder you can style all the different pages of your shop exactly as you had in mind. This applies to check-out pages, product pages, category pages and all other pages in the shop. You do not need HTML or other technical knowledge for this, everyone can do that with the ThemeBuilder.
HUB THEME PORTFOLIOS
Another very strong point of the Hub Theme are the beautiful portfolio layouts. No fewer than 13 pre-defined grids from which to choose.
HUB THEME REVIEW: CONCLUSION
In short, this is one of the best themes available to build blogs, portfolios, websites or web shops. The only thing missing is the cooperation with the Elementor pagebuilder but the theme has just been released and they are working hard on it. The fact remains, however, that the Hub Theme, like all other themes that are sold on the Themeforest marketplace, requires a separate license for each site you have. That is simply too expensive. The perfect theme for shops, blogs & websites is Divi and Astra is a very close second. These themes can be installed on multiple sites and the Divi Theme for example costs only $ 89, and comes with the Divibuilder full version!
HUB VS THE7 CONCLUSION
First of all thank you for reading this Hub vs The7 comparison till the end. Both themes are 100% compatible with Elementor page builder, which is great, although both themes also offer options for other page builders. If you have the money to install Elementor Pro I would do, the difference between free and pro is very big. The7 is a multipurpose theme with a lot of settings, one has to love this, some hate it because sometimes things are so hard to find. Hub loads a lot faster than The7 and is also very versatile and easy to customize. Both themes are definitely worth their money if it is bad for 1 single website.
In case you want to provide 2 or more websites with a theme, I advise against both these themes because then it will be much too expensive since a separate expensive license will be needed for each website. In that case, you're much better off Astra or Divi as it saves you money on multiple sites. In addition, these latter themes are ranked higher in my top 10 themes for [2023] than The7 and Hub.
