Hello @bviktor,
We are truly sorry to hear about the frustrating experience you had with the Rufous theme and Kubio plugin.
When you activate the Rufous theme, you’ll see a notice in the admin area offering to set up a homepage tailored to your website’s industry. This step is entirely optional and can be skipped if you prefer to configure everything manually.
If you chose to proceed with the setup, the process involves installing the Kubio plugin to create the homepage layout and content. As part of this setup, it also:
- Adds a suggested menu with new items.
- Creates example pages to match the homepage design.
- Sets the newly created homepage as your site’s default.
- Installs the Contact Form 7 plugin to add a contact form to the homepage.
We understand that these changes can feel disruptive, especially if you weren’t expecting them. However, no existing content is deleted during this process. You can always revert to your original setup by:
- Reactivating your previous theme.
- Setting your old homepage back as the default in Settings > Reading.
- Your previous menus and widgets should restore automatically, as they are tied to the theme’s menu locations and widget settings.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this caused. Our goal is to make it easier to start with a pre-designed site, especially for new websites, but we recognize it may not suit everyone’s needs.
Thank you for giving Rufous a try, and we hope you’ll reconsider using it in the future.
Best regards
