I already know about the standard themes. I was asking how to integrate with other themes for Ali Express DropShip PLugin. Has anyone done that? Is there a tutorial for that?

I'd just make a copy of the theme folder you wish to use, name it something like davinci_child, then use that theme. Make sure to also change the Theme Name in style.css to Davinci_Child so you can tell which is which, and then go to town and play with it. As far as I know, I don't think theme files were encrypted, so you can edit functions.php and change single_product layout. I just edited front-page.php and added customized blocks. Just make sure you copy/backup everything before you make changes, or you will break your site.

I can install it just fine. Make sure you got your Wordpress running fine with a default theme and then you can upload the new theme.

First of all, please note that the DaVinci theme is compatible with Alidropship original plugin only, it does not work with Alidropship Woo plugin. Could you please be more specific: what kind of error did you get when trying to install the theme file?

As it has been already mentioned, AliDropship original plugin works perfectly well with DaVinci, Michelangelo and Rembrandt. We do not recommend installing any third-party themes. What version of the plugin do you have installed: original or WooCommerce based?

Hello Babar,
The core difference between the two plugins is theme compatibility. Please refer to this guide to learn in what ways AliDropship original plugin and AliDropship Woo plugin are different: https://alidropship.com/codex/8-alidropship-vs-alidropship-woocommerce-choose/ Also, please keep in mind that you will need to reinstall your WP if you make up your mind to switch to another version as they have different structures that are not compatible with each other. This will help you avoid conflicts between the plugins.

SO after looking at your post it is better to stay with AlidropShop, Since I am getting all the functionality only drawback is the themes. Is there any tutorial on customization within the boundaries of the alidropship themes available?

I have created the child theme for Rembrandt theme but for some reason, it's telling me that "
The parent theme is missing. Please install the "Rembrandt" parent theme." And the link that you posted is broken, error 404. I have done it before for other WP themes with no problem but I don't know why it asking me to install when I already have that installed. Thanks​

Have you deleted the parent theme? Please note that it cannot be removed.
