Step 1: Put WoodMart and WPBakery in place.

Installing the WoodMart theme is the first step. When turned on:

  • Install and turn on WPBakery Page Builder (the theme comes with it).
This is the basis for a page that can be changed and looks good.

Step 2: Turn on WPBakery for all post types.

WPBakery might only be turned on for pages by default. To add to its capabilities:
  • Click on WPBakery Page Builder > Role Manager.
  • Click "Post Types" and then "Pages," "Posts," and "Custom Post Types" like Brand or Portfolio.
  • Save your changes
This makes sure that WPBakery works on your whole site.

Step 3: Open the WPBakery Backend Editor.

When editing a page:

  • Click WPBakery Edit to start.
  • Pick either the backend editor or the frontend editor.
In the backend, you can make organized changes, and in the frontend, you can see your changes as they happen.

Step 4: Add and change elements

WPBakery has a lot of different content blocks, such as

  • Rows and Columns
  • Text Blocks
  • Image Carousels
  • Google Maps
  • Buttons
  • Accordions and Tabs
  • Testimonials
  • Call to Actions

You can drag these into your layout, set them up with simple controls, and style each part separately.

Advanced Methods of Design

1. Use Pre-Built WoodMart Templates

There are a lot of design blocks on WoodMart that work with WPBakery. 

 How to use them:

  • Open WPBakery and go to a page.
  • Click on WoodMart Templates under Templates.
  • Pick out blocks like contact forms, headers, footers, product parts, or headers.
This lets you make pages fast and makes sure the design is always the same.

2. Make changes to the header and footer

To make changes to the global header and footer:
  • Go to Theme Settings > Header Builder
  • Create a new layout using the WPBakery-compatible interface
  • Add logo, navigation menu, search bar, and icons

You can give each page a different heading as well.

4. Being mobile-friendly

Both WoodMart and WPBakery are mobile-friendly, but you should change the spacing, font sizes, and column layouts by hand:

  • Use padding and margin controls to fine-tune layouts

Adding features for eCommerce

WooCommerce works well with WoodMart, so you can:

With WPBakery's shortcodes and plugins, you can easily add these things to any page.

Mistakes People Make and How to Avoid Them

  • Overuse of Heavy Elements: To keep load times short, be smart about how you use picture sliders, carousels, and animations.
  • Typography that isn't consistent: use only two or three fonts on the whole site.
  • Columns That Aren't Lined Up: Use grids and make sure the lines are straight on all screen sizes.
  • Not Using SEO Tags: Make sure you use heading tags (H1, H2) correctly and use ALT tags to make pictures work better.

Optimizing Your Custom Design

1. Put pictures on Lazy Load

WoodMart lets you use lazy loading to make things run faster. In Theme Settings > Performance, turn it on.

2. Cut down on JS and CSS

In the WoodMart settings, turn on file minification, or use a tool like WP Rocket.

3.Integrate Google Fonts

Change the fonts for the whole site in Theme Settings > Typography.

4. Use Global Sections

For example, you can use WPBakery to make CTAs or ads that you can use again and again and save them as templates.
