Web Builder templates

I just purchased Web Builder. I have a WordPress site that I wanted to migrate to a more conventional format. I hope to use a suitable Web Builder template to ease the transition and flatten the learning curve.

But it seems that the templates are merely the front page of a website, and not much at that. Everything else has to be created.

I was hoping for a "template" with operating menus and linked multiple pages with headers and footers ... you know web page stuff.

I naively thought that I could then add my content - copy text, add graphics, etc - to a reasonably robust template.

Silly me, seems I have to start from scratch.

Did I miss something?

There is a free trial available, which anyone can give the application a fair shake down, to first see if this program is something that will suit your needs. Not all website design tools offers this ability. Personally, I 'tested' WWB for only 2 days, before deciding I had to have it. No regrets here.

The templates on the official website are mostly layout examples. See also the disclaimer about this on the website: https://wysiwygwebbuilder.com/templates.html
However, most templates include menus, header and footers.

There are several third party websites that provide multi-page templates. For example:
https://webbuildertemplates.com/
https://store.dapsonishmeal.com/index.php
http://lucknowwebs.com/downloads/templa ... templates/
https://www.webbuilderfx.com/wysiwyg-we ... -templates

when you use a template it does not give the full taste unless you build the master piece your self. I know it may take time to learn and implement but that makes your site special.

I have several templates I purchased from two of the sites referenced by Pablo:

https://webbuildertemplates.com/
https://store.dapsonishmeal.com/index.php

I think you will find good work at both.

Also make sure you look at "Blocks" in Web Builder. You will want to add them from the available free additional content. You can create a nice page very quickly by putting it together with blocks. I usually start out with what I want the site to look like and then find the blocks that corrospond to my design.

Welcome to WYSIWYG Web Builder and the Forum. Wish you design success.
