Support Policy
VillaTheme.com Version 1.0.0 – Effective date: [September 2nd, 2026]
1. Overview
When buying a VillaTheme plugin, customers have the option to add an item support package to their order. With this package, the VillaTheme team stays by your side throughout your use of the product, ready to sort out whatever issues come up.
One thing to keep in mind: everything listed below — receiving version updates (auto update) and downloading the product file (download) included — only applies while your support package is still active. Here’s the breakdown:
| Item | While support is active (6 months from purchase, extendable) | Once support has expired |
|---|---|---|
| Receiving new version updates, including security patches (auto update) | Yes | No |
| Downloading the product file / latest version (download) | Yes | No |
| Getting direct assistance from the VillaTheme team | Yes | No |
| Getting answers to technical questions about product features and any bundled third-party libraries/plugins | Yes | No |
| Getting help resolving reported bugs | Yes | No |
| Getting support for bundled third-party components (e.g. image sliders, contact forms) | Yes | No |
Put simply: once support lapses, you’ll need to renew it before you can pick up new updates or download the latest files again.
2. Check the documentation first
Odds are, a lot of common questions are already covered in the product’s documentation, its FAQ section, or comments left by other customers. Take a look there before reaching out — if you still can’t find what you need, our team is happy to help.
3. What support covers
How long it lasts
By default, a support package runs for 6 months from the purchase date. Throughout that window, the VillaTheme team will assist you with everything outlined on this page. How quickly we respond can depend on how many requests we’re handling at the time, how complex the issue is, and whether it’s something we’ve already answered before (more on that under “Fair Use” further down).
Want more time? You can buy a support renewal to stretch your coverage out to as much as 12 months from your original purchase date.
Guidance on using the product
While your support is active, VillaTheme will field general questions about how the product works — say, how to get your homepage looking like the demo. Depending on the question, we might walk you through it directly or point you to existing docs/FAQ.
Technical questions, third-party components included
During the support period, we’ll:
- Answer specific questions about what the product does and how its features work
- Explain the reasoning behind how the product was built
- Help you get the most out of the product’s functionality
- Field questions about any third-party libraries or plugins bundled into the product
Bugs and defects
Found a bug? Report it during your support period and we’ll work through it with you. Depending on the situation, we might send you a one-off fix or roll it into a broader update that goes out to everyone.
Keeping things compatible and secure
For products that hook into third-party platforms or software (WordPress and WooCommerce, for instance), we do our best to keep everything working smoothly as those platforms roll out new versions, and to patch any related security issues that come up. These fixes usually ship as general updates available to all customers.
4. What’s outside the scope of support
Custom work
Support doesn’t stretch to editing the product or building features beyond what’s described on the product page. Need something custom? Reach out and we can talk about a paid customization service, where available.
Installing the product
Setting the product up on your server or CMS isn’t part of the support package — you’ll want some baseline familiarity with the platform involved. If you’d like a hand installing it, get in touch and we can discuss a paid installation service, where available.
Hosting, server, or other software problems
We’re not on the hook for troubleshooting issues tied to your hosting, server setup, or other software you’re running. Those are best directed to your hosting provider or the relevant software’s own documentation.
Support owed by third-party component authors
When a product bundles a third-party library or plugin, the people who made that component aren’t obligated to help you directly. For anything related, just reach out to VillaTheme and we’ll steer you in the right direction.
5. Fair use and a few other notes
We’re always working to strike a balance between taking care of existing customers and pushing forward with new products and updates. That’s why it’s worth reading through the product documentation and any extras — FAQ, comments, and so on — before submitting a request, just to check whether your question’s already been answered somewhere.
Since we’re supporting a lot of customers at once, response times will naturally shift depending on the moment. If you’re waiting on an update or a bug fix, the whole cycle of fixing, testing, and shipping it can take anywhere from a few days up to a few weeks. There may also be stretches where our support availability dips a bit — around holidays, for example — and we’ll try to give a heads-up whenever we can.
