Vilan - Corporate, Shop & Forum WordPress Theme 2.9

Vilan is a professional, multi-functional WordPress theme developed by disgogo. It is specifically designed to handle three complex website types in a single package: Corporate Business, eCommerce, and Community Forums.

Its primary strength lies in its deep integration with bbPress and WooCommerce, allowing you to run a shop and a community under a unified, professional design.

Key Functional Pillars

Vilan is built on the Bootstrap framework, providing a robust, responsive foundation for complex sites:

Comprehensive Forum Support: Unlike themes that just "support" bbPress, Vilan includes custom templates and styling specifically for forums, ensuring they look like an integrated part of your site rather than an afterthought.

WooCommerce Optimization: Fully styled for retail, with features like product quick views, catalog mode (hiding the cart for display only), and varied product grid layouts.

Visual Content Editing: Powered by WPBakery Page Builder (Visual Composer), allowing you to drag-and-drop elements to create custom landing pages.

Revolution Slider: Bundled with the theme to create high-impact, animated hero banners and product showcases.

Why Choose Vilan?

Three-in-One Solution: It is the "Swiss Army Knife" for businesses that need a shop to sell products, a forum to support customers, and a corporate site to build brand authority.

Professional Aesthetic: The default design uses a "flat" style with a primary palette of blue and dark grey, which is psychologically associated with trust and stability in business.

Portfolio Flexibility: Includes 12 different portfolio templates, making it excellent for companies that also need to showcase project work or case studies.

Design Tip: To maintain a fast loading speed with a multi-functional theme like Vilan, it is best to deactivate any of the core components (like the Shop or Forum) if you are not using them, as this reduces the amount of CSS and JavaScript loaded on your pages.
