Description

Import complete sites, pages or individual sections

Starter Templates lets you bring in as much or as little of a design as your site needs.

Choose a full website kit with its pages, menus and settings, a single-page template for an existing site, or an individual section or block pattern. You can preview a template before importing; imports may also add the plugins that design requires, so check what will be included.

Templates for Elementor, Gutenberg and other builders

The library covers several editing workflows and a wide range of site types.

  • Supported builders: Choose designs for Elementor, Gutenberg, Spectra or Beaver Builder.
  • Gutenberg editing: Gutenberg designs use Spectra Blocks and can be edited in the native block editor.
  • Site categories: Browse business, ecommerce, portfolio, landing-page, blog, restaurant, event and nonprofit designs.
  • Page components: Use more than 200 page sections and block patterns, including layouts for services, pricing, testimonials and contact pages.

AI tools and the free-template boundary

AI features sit alongside a substantial free collection, but not every design is included at no cost.

The plugin includes an AI website builder and an AI-integrated design library with royalty-free images and editable text and imagery. The free plugin includes more than 150 free website templates; some other library designs require higher plans. This gives budget-conscious site owners a useful starting selection, with plan access worth checking before settling on a particular design.

A large library with a small support sample

Broad adoption and a strong rating point to an established plugin, while the support figure is too limited to show a lasting pattern.

Starter Templates is among the directory’s most widely installed plugins and has an excellent rating with many reviews. It was updated within the last week, indicating a current release. One support thread is reported, with 100% resolved; that single case is too small a sample to establish consistent resolution performance. For readers choosing a template library, the update and review signals are encouraging, but the support record offers little evidence about outcomes over time.
