LWS offers you 3 premium plugins from Elegant Themes (Divi, Bloom and Monarch). These are updated regularly. Once you are an LWS customer, you will have free access to these plugins by choosing the 'Divi Builder' distribution when installing the Wordpress CMS with our Auto-Installer.
If you have a cPanel package or have already installed Wordpress with this distribution, but do not have access to all the themes or updates, please let us know by giving us the access details for the administration area of your Wordpress site so that a technician can update the licence.
Please note: you will need to take out an Elegant Themes licence to benefit from support. LWS does not provide support for these products.
Each Elegant theme comes fully packaged with its own custom theme options panel. This is where you can control things like your logo, display metadata, and much more. These options are available via the Extra >> Theme Option command.

Enable canonical URL's
Canonical URLs help prevent duplicate content from being indexed by search engines and, as a result, can help avoid penalties for duplicate content and pagerank degradation. Some pages may have different URLs all leading to the same place. For example domain.com, domain.com/index.html and www.domain.com are all different URLs leading to your home page. From a search engine's point of view, these duplicate URLs, which also often occur due to the customisation of permalinks, can be crawled individually instead of as a single destination. Defining a canonical URL tells the search engine which URL you want to use officially. The theme bases its canonical URLs on your permalinks and the domain name defined in the Settings tab of wp-admin.

Check this box if you want to display meta descriptions on category/archive pages. The description is based on the category description you choose when you create/edit your category in wp-admin.
