Made by an Envato Author
This service was hand crafted by dtbaker; a provider you can trust with your theme demo service. We are using AWS + RDS for secure customer data storage and wpdocker for reliable WordPress container hosting.
Buyer Process
Buyers browsing the your Envato item Page click a “Try before you buy” button taking them to a landing page where they select the demo to edit. They are then asked to login (optional to capture an email address), the full WordPress dashboard loads allowing them to test all the features of your theme. The buyer can then choose to buy your theme from the button at the top of the screen or exit, if they exit a feedback form will be sent to them. This helps you for the first time to follow up a sale or get a review on any improvements to be made.
