MyThemeShop products are digital in nature and are subject to the Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the council of 25 October 2011 on consumer rights which essentially means that once the digital products are downloaded – they are excluded from the right of withdrawal and hence are not eligible for refunds under law.
With that said, if you believe that the issue truly lies with our product – we will still issue a refund if requested within 15 days of purchase if our item is broken. After 15 days, no refunds will be granted.
Note that there is a difference between a broken item, and simply receiving an error message or having trouble configuring the Product to your desired result.
Error messages are often related to improper setup, hosting, configuration, plugin conflicts, or missing files which, causes the item to not work.
Before you request a refund from MyThemeShop, you must do the following:
- Read the extensive documentation or check video tutorials that we provide with each Product or general tutorials.
- Check the support forums for existing threads about the issue you’re receiving.
- Open a new support ticket with our support staff if you are still experiencing problems.
- Confirm that your server meets the specifications laid out in the requirements for the Product and WordPress in general [https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/].
Note that opening a dispute or initiating a chargeback will not speed up your refund request, and we reserve the right to refer any case to the PayPal fraud department, which may result in your account being limited.
If you’re not sure whether a Product is the correct fit for you, please reach out to our sales team or create a forum account and ask before making a purchase. Our team will be happy to assist you.
If you’ve read the above, and taken the necessary steps, but your Product is still broken, malfunctioning or otherwise non-functional, please open a refund request.

Hello Deano,
Yes, this article is about installing the self-hosted version of WordPress on any hosting. The self-hosted version provides full control over your website. For the other version of WordPress – the WordPress.com one – you do not need to install anything and can start using it like you use Gmail or Tumblr.
Hope that helps.
