What’s new in Upking 1.4
Version 1.4
Latest
What it does
Outdoor clubs usually need a site that does several jobs at once: list upcoming hikes, share trip photos and stories, take inquiries and sometimes sell gear or tickets. This theme is designed around those needs. It comes with more than 300 pre-built blocks and layouts aimed at hiking and sports sites, plus a drag-and-drop Visual Composer builder with more than 60 elements made for the sports niche. You assemble pages from these pieces instead of starting from a blank screen.
Beyond page building, the theme works with popular event calendar plugins for displaying hikes and competitions, WooCommerce for an online store, WPML for multilingual sites and Contact Form 7 for inquiry and booking forms. Revolution Slider, a mega menu, header and footer builders and over 600 Google Fonts help with branding. It is responsive and retina ready, and child theme and multisite support make it practical for developers and agencies handling client sites.
