Today we’re introducing FreightCo, a WordPress theme for logistics, transportation, transport, trucking, and warehousing businesses. FreightCo is among the first themes that are built entirely based on Elementor, an intuitive WordPress page builder that’s been gaining a lot of traction lately in the WordPress ecosystem.
Beside Elementor, FreightCo is bundled with such plugins as Calculated Fields Form, Slider Revolution, Essential Grid, and Contact Form 7. The theme features a fully responsive design that scales nicely across various screen sizes and resolutions.
Thanks to integrated demo content import tool, you can easily import the demo data and make your website an exact copy of the theme demo. Additionally, the theme includes flexible theme options with inheritance settings, which let you not only customize the overall appearance of your website but fine-tune individual pages as well. Let’s cover some of the other theme features worth mentioning.
Calculated Fields Form
FreightCo comes with the Calculated Fields Form plugin, which lets you create forms with automatically calculating fields. With its help, your customers can easily calculate the shipping costs and know in advance how much they should pay you.
The plugin includes a visual form builder that lets you manage multiple fields and form formatting options. The fields calculator supports both basic and advanced math operations, such as ternary operators. You can also add multiple field types, such as checkboxes, dropdowns, input fields, etc.
Elementor Builder Support
Elementor is a rising star among WordPress page builders, and we decided to choose it as the primary builder for FreightCo. Although you can still use WPBakery if you want to (our custom shortcodes still work fine with it), we recommend trying out Elementor because of its intuitive interface and comfortable visual editing experience. Additionally, all the demo data is imported with Elementor pages, so unless you want to create content from scratch, that’s the option to go with.
The great thing about using Elementor with FreightCo, is that the free version is heavily upgraded with additional widgets and features. We’ve added a large array of elements to the standard and somewhat limited list, which makes it possible to create even more unique layout combinations. Also, thanks to Header & Footer Builder, you can finally be able to customize not only the content of your pages, but the header and footer layouts as well.
Header & Footer Builder
Header & Footer Builder is a long-awaited feature that lets you create unique combinations of header and footer areas the same way you customize pages. Using a combination of standard elements, as well as those made specifically for header and footer areas, you can finally have a more granular control over the top and bottom parts of your website.
The custom elements include menu, iconed text, logo, featured image, breadcrumbs, widgets, shopping cart, and other elements used frequently in header and footer areas.
Services
Thanks to integrated services shortcode, you can display various categories of shipping services on your website and help your visitors to get a clear picture of what you do. You can output your services in various parts of your website, arranging them by type, category, managing their layout, etc.
Testimonials
Testimonials are an important element for many business websites since it increases trust towards your business and tells your customers what they can expect from working with you.
The testimonials functionality integrated into FreightCo enables you to create the unlimited number of testimonials and output them in various places of your website via a shortcode.
Team Members
Showcase team members of your company using the special team members shortcode. With its help, you can display your staff members in various styles. Choose the number of columns, the order in which the posts should be displayed, as well as choose between the ordinary layout and slider view.
By displaying information about your team on your website, you increase the credibility of your company, as well as chances to convert new customers.
Image Galleries
Thanks to the Essential Grid plugin that comes bundled with FreightCo, showcasing image galleries on your website wouldn’t be an issue. With several advanced options that the plugin provides, you can create galleries of different types and styles, such as standard grid, cobbles, and masonry.
Blog Layouts
For a lot of companies, having a blog is an important source of traffic and a powerful lead generator. By publishing relevant content that is useful for your target audience, you increase popularity of your brand and show that you’re competent in your business niche.
Thanks to the theme’s flexible blog settings, you can fine-tune the appearance of your blog page by selecting from several blog styles, choosing the position of sidebar, pagination style, post-animation, and adjusting several other settings. The changes are made in the Live Customizer, allowing you to preview everything in real-time.
Conclusion
FreightCo is a feature-rich WordPress theme with a beautiful design that is a great choice for logistics and transportation businesses. The theme has a full support for the Elementor page builder, however, it goes even a step further, and improves the default Elementor functionality by introducing a large set of custom elements, as well as a tool for building header and footer areas.
The theme includes such useful shortcodes as services, team members, and testimonials. Additionally, thanks to integration with Essential Grid and Calculated Fields Form, you can create versatile image galleries, as well as forms for calculating shipping costs of your services.
