About REHub WP Theme

REHub is a multi-purpose WordPress theme built by sizam, designed specifically for price comparison sites, affiliate stores, multi-vendor marketplaces, and review platforms.

The theme is feature-heavy out of the box. You get deal posting, coupon management, product comparison tables, user-generated reviews, and front-end submission forms without needing a page builder. REHub targets site owners who want affiliate or eCommerce functionality without stitching together a dozen separate plugins. It is a serious commercial theme with a steep learning curve and regular updates that can occasionally break customizations.

Who is REHub for?

Price Comparison Site

REHub was built with price comparison in mind. The theme supports multiple merchant links per product, price history display, and structured data for review and offer schemas. A REHub specialist can connect external data feeds, automate product imports, and configure the comparison widget to match your niche layout requirements.

Affiliate Niche Blog

Affiliate bloggers use REHub for its product boxes, pros and cons blocks, star ratings, and commission link management. These elements are built into the theme and do not require a separate review plugin. A REHub developer can customise the design and ensure affiliate links are properly tracked and disclosed.

Multi-Vendor Marketplace

With Dokan or WC Vendors installed, REHub becomes a front-end marketplace where vendors manage their own listings. The theme’s vendor profile pages, store headers, and product submission forms are all pre-built. A REHub expert can extend vendor dashboards and configure commission structures to match your business model.

Coupon and Deal Portal

REHub includes coupon listing templates, expiry date management, and user voting on deals. These features make it a strong base for a community deal or coupon site. A REHub developer can integrate cashback tracking, connect to affiliate networks, and set up front-end submission with moderation workflows.

Product Review Platform

The theme’s review system supports editorial scores, user ratings, pros and cons, and verdict blocks. Schema markup is included, which helps review content appear in rich results. A REHub specialist can extend the review post type, add custom criteria fields, and ensure the output meets current structured data requirements.

Customizing REHub

REHub ships with its own options panel, REHub Core plugin, and a set of child theme starters. Customization goes well beyond colors and fonts. You can configure affiliate link structures, set up cashback logic, build custom comparison table layouts, and define product feed import rules. Each of these areas has its own settings screen.

Getting everything configured correctly takes time. A REHub expert can cut that time significantly. From setting up custom post types and review schemas to tuning the front-end submission workflow and integrating third-party affiliate networks, a developer who knows the theme avoids the trial and error most site owners go through. If you are building a comparison or affiliate site with specific requirements, working with a REHub specialist from the start is the smarter path.

Recommended plugins for REHub

REHub works alongside a wide range of plugins. For affiliate and price comparison use cases, the theme integrates with WooCommerce, AAWP, Datafeedr, and various CSV importers. For marketplaces, it supports Dokan and WC Vendors natively.

Performance is a real concern given the theme’s feature set. A poorly configured REHub site with multiple active modules can load slowly. Pairing it with proper caching, a CDN, and a WordPress performance audit makes a measurable difference. If you are running a content-heavy affiliate blog alongside the store, an SEO optimisation review ensures your schema markup and site structure are working in your favour.

REHub common issues

REHub comparison table not displaying correctly

Comparison table display issues in REHub are usually caused by a missing or misconfigured REHub Core plugin setting, a JavaScript conflict with another plugin, or a column count mismatch in the shortcode attributes. Check the browser console for JS errors first. If the table renders in source but not visually, a CSS conflict from a third-party plugin is likely. Disabling plugins one by one will isolate the cause. If you need help tracing it, our WordPress bug fixing service can diagnose and resolve it.

REHub affiliate button not showing on product page

The affiliate button in REHub is controlled by the product’s affiliate URL field and the button visibility settings inside REHub options. If the button does not appear, check that the affiliate URL is saved on the product, that the button is enabled in REHub Core settings, and that no CSS rule is hiding it. Also confirm the correct product template is assigned. Template overrides in a child theme that are outdated after an update are a common cause.

REHub front-end submission form not working

Front-end submission failures in REHub usually come down to permission settings, a missing or deactivated REHub Core module, or a conflict with a security plugin blocking the form’s AJAX request. Check that the submission module is active under REHub options, verify user roles have the correct capabilities, and whitelist the form’s AJAX action in your security plugin. Clearing your cache after any settings change is also required.

REHub child theme not applying custom styles

If a REHub child theme is not applying styles, the most common reason is that the child theme’s stylesheet is not loading after the parent. Confirm the child theme’s functions.php enqueues the stylesheet with the correct dependency on the parent style handle. REHub uses its own enqueue system, so the standard Twenty-series child theme approach does not always work without adjustment. Review the official child theme starter files from sizam as a reference.

REHub WooCommerce product page layout broken after update

WooCommerce layout breaks after a REHub update are typically caused by outdated template overrides. REHub overrides several WooCommerce core templates. When either WooCommerce or REHub updates, those overrides can fall out of sync. Go to WooCommerce > Status > System Status and check for outdated templates. Update each one manually or through the theme’s template update tool. Our WordPress bug fixing service handles this regularly.

REHub review schema not showing in Google Search Console

REHub outputs review schema through its built-in structured data system, but it requires the review post type to be used correctly. If schema is not appearing in Search Console, verify you are using the REHub review template and not a standard post. Also check that aggregate rating fields are populated and that no SEO plugin is overriding or stripping the schema output. Some all-in-one SEO plugins conflict with REHub’s own schema and need to be configured to defer to the theme.

REHub page loading very slowly with multiple modules active

REHub’s performance issues at scale come from loading all modules globally rather than conditionally. Disable any REHub modules you are not using inside REHub options. Combine this with a caching plugin, lazy loading for images, and deferred JavaScript loading. A full WordPress performance review will identify the heaviest requests specific to your configuration. Hosting on a server with object caching like Redis also makes a significant difference for sites with large product catalogs.

REHub vendor dashboard showing blank page

A blank vendor dashboard in REHub with Dokan or WC Vendors usually points to a permissions issue, a missing page assignment, or a PHP error being suppressed. Enable WP_DEBUG to check for fatal errors. Confirm the vendor dashboard page is assigned in the marketplace plugin settings and that the page contains the correct shortcode. Also check that the logged-in user has the vendor role properly assigned. A plugin update can reset role capabilities on occasion.

REHub coupon shortcode not rendering

REHub coupon shortcodes failing to render are most often caused by the REHub Core plugin being deactivated, a shortcode typo, or a conflict with a plugin that modifies the post content filter. Test by pasting the shortcode into a new page with all other plugins disabled. If it renders there, re-enable plugins one by one. Also check that the coupon module is enabled in REHub settings, as modules can be toggled off individually.

REHub Core plugin conflict with third-party plugin

REHub Core adds custom post types, AJAX handlers, and script dependencies that can conflict with other plugins registering the same hooks or slugs. Common conflicts occur with SEO plugins, page builders, and security tools. Identify the conflict by deactivating plugins in groups. Check the PHP error log for the first fatal or notice-level error. If the conflict is with a plugin you cannot remove, a REHub developer can write a small compatibility patch. See our WordPress bug fixing service for persistent conflicts.

REHub FAQ

What is REHub theme used for?

REHub is used for affiliate marketing sites, price comparison portals, coupon and deal platforms, multi-vendor marketplaces, and product review sites. It bundles the features these use cases require, including affiliate link management, comparison tables, and front-end deal submission, into a single theme rather than requiring multiple separate plugins.

Is REHub good for affiliate marketing sites?

Yes. REHub is one of the most capable WordPress themes for affiliate sites. It includes affiliate button management, click tracking, product boxes with pros and cons, star rating blocks, and schema markup for reviews. These are built into the theme rather than bolted on, which keeps the setup cleaner than using a generic theme with affiliate plugins.

Does REHub work with WooCommerce?

REHub has deep WooCommerce integration. It overrides several WooCommerce templates to fit its design system and adds affiliate URL fields, comparison functionality, and custom product layouts to WooCommerce product pages. It also supports YITH plugins and multi-vendor solutions like Dokan and WC Vendors.

How hard is REHub to set up?

REHub has a high setup complexity compared to most themes. The options panel is large, the REHub Core plugin adds its own configuration layer, and getting a site to match the demo requires working through multiple interconnected settings. Most users need several hours to days before the site is functional. Hiring a REHub expert shortens this significantly.

Can REHub be used as a multi-vendor marketplace?

Yes. REHub supports multi-vendor setups through Dokan and WC Vendors. The theme includes vendor profile pages, store headers, product submission forms, and commission-ready layouts. A REHub developer will need to configure the vendor roles, dashboard pages, and marketplace settings correctly for the setup to work as expected.

Does REHub include price comparison features?

Yes. Price comparison is one of REHub’s core features. You can add multiple merchant links to a single product, display pricing from different sources, and use comparison table shortcodes to display products side by side. The theme also supports price history widgets and structured data for offers.

How do I update REHub without breaking my site?

Before updating REHub, back up your database and files. Check the changelog for template changes and compare any overridden WooCommerce templates against the new versions. Test on a staging site first. REHub updates occasionally change CSS class names or shortcode attributes, so a staging test before pushing to production avoids downtime. Consider a WordPress maintenance plan to handle updates safely.

Is REHub compatible with Elementor or Gutenberg?

REHub has partial Gutenberg support through its own blocks but is primarily built around its own shortcode and template system. Elementor can be used for standard page layouts, but REHub’s specialty features like comparison tables and affiliate buttons are managed through REHub’s own interface rather than Elementor widgets.

Can I hire someone to set up REHub for me?

Yes. A vetted REHub developer can handle the full setup, from initial configuration and demo import to custom affiliate integrations and WooCommerce setup. Projects are posted on Codeable where REHub specialists provide a free estimate before any work begins. There is no obligation to hire after receiving the estimate.

Does REHub affect SEO negatively due to page speed?

REHub can affect page speed if modules are loaded globally and images are not optimised. The theme’s feature set is large, and an unconfigured install will load more scripts and styles than necessary. Disabling unused modules, using a caching layer, and running a WordPress performance audit brings scores into an acceptable range for most affiliate and comparison sites.
