Theme Selector
The theme selector tells SyteHero how to display hero text overlays and CTA buttons within your page builder. Shortcodes render regardless of which theme is selected — this setting only affects how overlays are positioned.
| Theme | Page Builder |
|---|---|
| Avada | Fusion Builder |
| Divi | Divi Builder (4 and 5) |
| Elementor | Elementor (Flexbox Containers) |
See the individual theme guides for step-by-step placement instructions.
Slider Engine
Select which slider library SyteHero loads on the front end:
- FlexSlider — lightweight, jQuery-based. Available out of the box on Avada and Divi.
- Swiper — modern, CSS-driven with rich transition options (fade, cube, flip, slide).
- Splide — lightweight, dependency-free, accessible.
SyteHero bundles all three engines, so no extra plugin is required. The Engine Settings panel below the selector exposes per-engine options (smooth height, easing, pagination style, transition direction). Defaults are sensible — open the panel only when tuning a specific behavior.
See Slider Engines for the full per-engine reference.
Ecommerce Selector
The ecommerce selector tells SyteHero which product catalog to use for featured product sliders, sales scheduling, and reporting.
| Platform | Description |
|---|---|
| WooCommerce | Native sale price sync, full order tracking, Shippo integration |
| FluentCart | SyteHero manages sale pricing and tagging automatically |
See the individual platform guides for details on how each integration works.
Detection Helpers
Detect Theme and Detect eCommerce Plugin auto-select supported integrations based on your active theme and plugins. Use these buttons if you're unsure which option to choose.
Debug Logging
Toggle file-based logging for diagnostics. The panel shows the log file path.
Cache Controls
- Purge Admin CSS/JS — clears cached admin assets.
- Clear Plugin Update Cache — forces a fresh update check.
LiteSpeed Cache
When the LiteSpeed Cache plugin is active, an additional toggle appears:
- Clear LiteSpeed Cache automatically — When enabled, SyteHero purges the LiteSpeed cache whenever a schedule goes live or expires. This ensures visitors see updated prices and slides immediately.
This toggle only appears if LiteSpeed Cache is installed and active on your site.
Access Requirement
Requires the manage_options capability (WordPress Administrators).
