what in the world is going on here i'm
looking for the best free wordpress
theme so this is my search term what are
the best free wordpress themes
and i've clicked some of the top ones
here especially this one
okay according to forms
ocean wp is number one and according to
hostinger number one is ocean wp
and according to just free themes
oceanwp is number two
and according to smart blogger ocean wp
is number eight
i think he's the smartest one of these
theme authorities
and let me show you why
[Music]
okay let's check out ocean wp let's
install it
take a quick peek at it and review it so
this is the website
oceanwp.org
and they're considered one of the best
free
themes wordpress themes and now let's
check out the pricing page
we are going to install the free version
of the theme
but their paid version for one site is
59
for one year's worth of updates and
support all right so let's go to my
fresh installation of
wordpress and of course it installs with
the default
template and at this time it is
2020 and let me show you what the main
page looks like
looks like this and let's go measure its
page speed from google
copy our domain
enter the url this gives us a you know
a measure of how fast these different
themes are
so currently with my hosting plan i'm
getting a hundred percent performance
this is the best you can get
with the 2020 theme which is very light
the default theme so we'll test this
after we install
oceanwp we're back in our dashboard
let's add a new theme so we go to
appearance
add new type in
oceanwp and install it
okay that was quick that was only about
three seconds let's activate it
okay it's activated let's refresh our
home page
so this is what it looks like bare bones
just the basic ocean wp theme so let's
check our speed now
analyze okay we received 90 which is not
bad
it's the lowest end of the green section
and now let's go install the other
components of the theme
okay so we're back here at our
appearance and themes
let's click theme details and install
plugins down here so you can check
elementor
ocean extra and wp forms
bulk actions install apply
here's some warnings and errors but it
shows that all installations and
activations have been completed so i
think we're still good
we can disregard these errors let's
check our plugins page
so now the elementor visual page builder
window just popped up and it says
welcome to ocean
wp you're ready to create an amazing
website we're going to skip this because
we're going to install
a demo from oceanwp
okay let's go to our plugins just see
what was installed
okay so yes elementor ocean extra and wp
forums lite
were installed now we're starting to see
some messages
from wp i wonder if they're going to
keep showing these kinds of
maybe ads it's promoting one of their
sticky headers
somebody did complain that there's too
many ads that
ocean wp comes with okay to bring in one
of the demos
or one of the templates from oceanwp
we need another plugin so let's add new
ocean demo
import there you go ocean demo brings up
ocean demo
import this is what we need to bring in
some
demos some templates okay let's install
activate and now we're in the theme
panel
so we can customize certain parts
getting started your logo favicon this
is like an
onboarding process i guess for them and
there's more
ads over here so right here install demo
okay so these are the free templates or
demos
that you can import from oceanwp
and there's only 13 of them while
compared to astr astra has 49
free templates this is only 13 so it's a
bit limited here
let's install the coach template
click it and it tells you what else you
need to install
so there's a bunch of things to install
with ocean
wp it says install now for ocean
social sharing and this one i guess is
like a
paid add-on you don't need that but you
need to install this for this
template work install the installation
process is
a little clunky compared to others
go to next step okay what do you want to
import let's
import all that including the contact
form
and widgets
okay the demo has been imported that
took about 20 seconds let's see the
result
it's not working the result
is not working let's refresh the home
page here
yeah it's not working i'm giving up on
oceanwp
because i can't handle this kind of
errors and
all these ads showing and all the
plugins that it's requiring
i won't waste my time because there's
other themes out there
that are free that install really nicely
and don't give you any problems i'm
being ruthless here i'm going to stop
this
installation process and i'm just going
to give my review of oceanwp
as a big negative because it introduced
too many steps
too many ads it didn't work i don't want
to contact their support team just to
fix this
it's just too much of a hassle and there
are other themes out there that work
really well
plus it only has 13 demos while themes
like astr has 49
so this is a no-go for ocean wp
