Themes
Basel – Responsive eCommerce Theme
Basel is an XTemos eCommerce theme with documented shop features, a custom slider workflow, and built-in product comparison. Its setup relies on theme configuration, WordPress pages, and WPBakery-based elements, so buyers should validate the required plugins and storefront workflow on staging.

Overview
Basel is positioned by XTemos as an eCommerce WordPress theme, while its documentation describes a broader configuration workflow covering menus, footer widgets, shop components, post types, and page options. The documented slider uses a Slides custom post type and WPBakery Page Builder elements, giving site owners a theme-integrated way to assemble promotional sections rather than requiring the same workflow as a separate slider product. The comparison feature is also integrated into the theme from Basel 4.5.0 onward, but it requires a dedicated WordPress page and the relevant WPBakery element. Before adopting it for a live store, test the installation process, required companion plugins, product templates, responsive behavior, and any existing WooCommerce customizations on staging. The supplied documentation does not establish broader plugin compatibility, performance outcomes, licensing terms, or support coverage, so those points should be confirmed separately.
Documented eCommerce theme with shop-focused configuration areas and product display guidance.
Built-in product comparison can be enabled from Theme Settings under Shop > Compare.
Comparison pages can display selected product details such as description, SKU, availability, weight, dimensions, and attributes.
Theme-based slider system built around a Slides custom post type and WPBakery Page Builder elements.
Slider settings include responsive heights, full-width mode, navigation styles, autoplay, and slide or fade transitions.
Slider slides support featured images, captions, device-specific content widths, positioning, and content animations.
Documentation covers mega menus, footer widgets, product grids or carousels, brands, attribute swatches, wishlists, and portfolio content.
Compatibility and setup context
- The documented comparison workflow requires a WordPress page containing the Basel Compare element from WPBakery Page Builder.
- The documented slider workflow requires the Slides custom post type and WPBakery Page Builder elements; verify the required companion plugin setup on staging.
- The official documentation includes separate WordPress setup, installation, child-theme, translation, and update guidance; review those procedures before deployment.
- The comparison documentation states that Basel 4.5.0 and later include the integrated comparison functionality; confirm the installed theme release before planning migration work.
