#2 of 7 in WordPress Themes by Overall Score
OceanWP is a customizable WordPress theme with extensive WooCommerce styling and layout controls available through the WordPress Customizer. Its ecosystem also includes Ocean Elementor Widgets, ecommerce extensions, template libraries, mega-menu options, cart controls, and performance settings such as selective handling of WooCommerce scripts.
OceanWP packages optional enhancements as separate Pro extensions and in its Pro Bundle, instead of treating every theme control as free. The Sticky Header extension can attach the entire header or a chosen part of a custom header by using its designated CSS class. Its paid Starter, Personal, Business and Agency licenses differ mainly in how many sites they cover.
