One-Click Website Templates and Template Kits

Building a website design from a blank page takes weeks. With Starter Templates you pick a template, import it, and edit the content.

Every design is a complete template kit, not just a demo page, but the pages, layouts and settings that make a finished website.

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

Do I need to know how to code to use Starter Templates?

No. Starter Templates is built for people who do not write code. You pick a website template, import it, then replace the text and images with your own. Everything is edited visually in your page builder or in the WordPress block editor.

Will Starter Templates work with my WordPress theme?

Yes. Starter Templates work with all WordPress themes. The templates are designed to adapt to the theme you already have, so you do not need to switch themes to use them.

Which page builders does Starter Templates support?

Starter Templates supports Elementor, Beaver Builder, Spectra, and the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). You can filter the template library by builder and only see designs built for the one you use.

Do I need Elementor to use Starter Templates?

No. Elementor is one of several supported options. If you prefer the WordPress block editor, there is a large library of Gutenberg templates and block patterns built with Spectra Blocks, which Starter Templates installs for you during import.

Are the website templates free?

The plugin is free and includes a large library of free website templates, page templates and block patterns, with more than 150 free website templates. Some designs in the library are available with higher plans.

What is the difference between a website template, a page template and a block pattern?

A website template is a complete site: every page, the menus and the settings, imported in one step. A page template is a single page design added to a site you already have. A block pattern is one section of a page, such as a hero, a pricing table or a testimonial layout, dropped into any page you like.

Latest changelog entry

v4.7.10 – 29th-October-2026

– Improvement:

– WooCommerce and Elementor are now set up ahead of the plugins that depend on them during website setup.

– The progress bar on the plugin setup step no longer jumps ahead and then back.

– AI Builder: Blocks a build upfront when your site’s PHP or WordPress version is below a required plugin’s minimum, instead of failing midway.

– Fix:

– Plugins that are already active no longer briefly show as “Activating” during website setup.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin. The author takes donations at their donate page.
