Template Kit Import is an absolute lifesaver for anyone looking to streamline their web design workflow. The process of importing kits is incredibly smooth, handling complex layouts and assets without the typical glitches found in other importers. What stands out most is how well it manages dependencies. It clearly identifies which plugins are required for a kit to function correctly and allows you to install them directly through the interface. This saved me a significant amount of time that would usually be spent manually configuring the back end. Whether you are a seasoned developer or a beginner, this plugin makes professional site-building accessible and much faster. It is a lightweight, reliable, and essential tool for my WordPress toolkit.

The decision to sunset the app that made me sub was really disappointing. I was tempted to just recreate it with the help of AI and then just keep using it… but it isnt worth the hassle. There are other options. 5 star reviews are fake, or employees. This is a dumpster fire of a plugin. In an age where AI is taking over and becoming better and better at doing things, like design, creating custom themes, etc… Envato decided to go backwards and become LESS convenient for their subs… Interesting move.

This plugin is a huge downgrade to the form envato elements plugin, just installed the plugin again on Jan 27th, 2026 and it throws up an unexpected error on a fresh install of wordpress and the plugin. “Sorry there was an unexpected error from API call:SyntaxError: Failed to execute ‘json’ on ‘Response’: Unexpected token ‘<‘, “<!doctype “… is not valid JSON. <!doctype html> <html lang=”en”> <head> <meta charset=”utf-8″ /> <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1″ /> <title>Page Not Found</title> <style> body { bac”I believe elementor recently has an import feature which works better. Any 5 star review of this plugin decision is 100% paid for, because nobody likes this change. Once again a terrible and lousy decision and caused many to unsubscribeto envato elements. It was SOOO helpful being able to license REAL stock photos of REAL humans inside a wordpress installation. Why would I pay you for degraded services and more AI mess?

Seit der Umstellung und dem Update auf das neue Envato Template Kit Import Plugin funktioniert bei mir das meiste nicht mehr. Und das, was überhaupt noch läuft, ist unnötig kompliziert und umständlich geworden. Vor dem Update war das Plugin richtig gut: schnell, zuverlässig und einfach zu bedienen. Jetzt kostet es nur noch Zeit, weil ständig etwas nicht klappt und man sich durch umständliche Schritte quälen muss. So ist das leider aktuell keine Hilfe mehr, sondern eher eine zusätzliche Baustelle.

The terrible decision of sunsetting enavto elements plugin was wrong! BIG MISTAKE! Please bring it back ai is not gonna fix that. I dont know where this is going but get ready to loose a lot of subscribers.

Envato Elements was one of the best plugins and worth paying for a regular annual subscription. Since the deprecation of the plugin, we cancelled our renewal and are still looking for a way to connect to our WordPress client accounts. Please bring back the ability to get images licensed to the correct project and into the media folder. Go back to being #1!

I’ve been a subscriber of Envato Elements since 2021, the removal of the plugin has no name, if I was here it was for the ease of use, I’m seriously rethinking renewing the subscription. For two reasons, because of the plugin and because I don’t see where this company is going, it seems that with the AI shit everything is allowed…. What the fuck does the plugin have to do with AI?
