Hire an Asana WordPress Developer

About Asana WP Theme

Asana is a WordPress theme built by HighSea, designed for creative agencies, portfolios, and small businesses that want a clean, professional presence without the bloat of page-builder-heavy themes. It ships with a minimal layout structure, smooth scroll animations, and a focus on whitespace and typography. The theme is built on clean HTML5 markup and relies on the WordPress Customizer for most style adjustments.

Asana works well for single-page and multi-page setups alike. Navigation is straightforward, and the default sections cover common business needs: hero, services, about, team, testimonials, and contact. For anyone who wants a fast-loading site that does not require a degree in CSS to manage, Asana is a practical starting point. Like most themes, though, it has limits that a developer can push past quickly.

Who is Asana for?

Creative Agency Portfolio

Asana’s whitespace-first layout lets creative work take center stage. An Asana developer can add filterable portfolio grids, case study templates, and custom project detail pages that match your agency’s visual identity. The minimal base means your work is not competing with the theme for attention.

Freelancer or Consultant Website

For freelancers who need a credible online presence without a complex site, Asana covers the essentials: services, bio, testimonials, and a contact section. An Asana specialist can wire up a lead capture form, integrate a scheduling tool, and tighten the typography to reflect a professional personal brand.

Small Business Landing Page

Local businesses often need a site that loads quickly on mobile and converts visitors to calls or form submissions. Asana’s single-page structure works well here. A developer can optimize the hero section for local keywords, integrate Google Maps, and configure the contact form to route leads properly.

Startup Product Page

Startups launching a product need speed and clarity. Asana’s section-based layout maps well to a standard product page structure: headline, features, social proof, pricing, and CTA. An Asana developer can add animated feature highlights, pricing table logic, and a modal signup form without the theme fighting the layout.

Nonprofit or Community Organization

Nonprofits need a site that communicates mission clearly and drives donations or volunteer sign-ups. Asana’s clean structure removes visual noise. A developer can integrate donation plugins, add an events section, and configure email opt-ins to support ongoing engagement with supporters and donors.

Customizing Asana

Out of the box, Asana gives you color controls, font options, and section toggles via the Customizer. That covers basic branding. Once you need anything beyond the defaults, you are writing CSS or editing template files directly.

An Asana expert can restructure layouts, build custom post type integrations, rework the contact section into a fully functional lead form, or strip out unused code to tighten performance. HighSea built Asana to be approachable, but it was not designed to anticipate every use case. A developer who knows the theme well can extend it without introducing technical debt.

Common customization requests include custom hero sections, animated counters, portfolio filtering, and Google Maps integration. If the Customizer options have hit their ceiling for your project, working with an Asana specialist is the most efficient path forward.

Recommended plugins for Asana

Asana pairs well with WooCommerce if you need a lightweight storefront, though you will likely want developer help to style the shop pages to match the theme. Contact Form 7 and WPForms both drop in cleanly.

For sites where traffic and speed matter, pairing Asana with a proper caching and optimization setup is worth doing early. See the WordPress performance service for what that involves. If the site needs to rank, structured metadata and technical SEO groundwork should be part of the build from the start. The WordPress SEO optimisation service covers that side of things. Asana does not conflict with major SEO plugins, so Yoast and Rank Math both work without issues.

Asana common issues

Asana theme header not sticky after WordPress update

A sticky header breaking after a WordPress update usually means a JavaScript conflict introduced by a plugin update or a theme script that references a deprecated jQuery method. Open the browser console and check for JS errors. If the theme’s main script is throwing an error, it often points to a jQuery compatibility issue introduced in WP 5.6 or later. A developer can patch the affected script quickly. If you are seeing this on a live site, the WordPress bug fixing service covers exactly this type of regression.

Asana contact form not sending emails

Asana’s default contact section often relies on a basic PHP mailer or a bundled form plugin. If emails are not arriving, the issue is almost always server-level mail delivery, not the form itself. Check whether the server blocks outbound mail on port 25, then configure SMTP via a plugin like WP Mail SMTP pointed at a transactional mail service. If the form submission is also not triggering a success message, there may be a separate JS error blocking the AJAX call. The WordPress bug fixing service can trace both problems.

Asana theme animations not working on mobile

Asana uses CSS and JavaScript-based scroll animations that depend on an Intersection Observer or a scroll event listener. On mobile, these can fail when a browser restricts JavaScript execution to save battery, or when a caching plugin serves a version of the page with inline scripts stripped. Start by disabling your caching plugin and testing on mobile. If animations return, whitelist the theme’s animation scripts in your cache configuration. If the issue persists across all mobile browsers, the animation library may need updating.

Asana WordPress theme slow on mobile PageSpeed

Asana’s default build includes render-blocking scripts and unoptimized image handling, which drags PageSpeed scores on mobile. The quickest wins are lazy loading images, deferring non-critical JavaScript, and enabling a caching layer. Switching to a self-hosted Google Font configuration removes an external request that adds latency. For a thorough fix, a performance audit will identify the specific bottlenecks in your Asana setup and prioritize them by impact.

Asana FAQ

Is Asana theme compatible with Elementor?

Asana can technically run alongside Elementor, but it was not designed as an Elementor-native theme. You may see styling conflicts on full-width sections and in the header area. A developer can resolve these conflicts and set up a proper Elementor integration, but if Elementor is central to your workflow, a purpose-built Elementor theme will save you more time in the long run.

How do I add a new section to the Asana theme?

Asana’s section structure is defined in PHP template files. Adding a new section means either duplicating and modifying an existing template part or creating a custom template file and registering it via the theme’s action hooks. There is no drag-and-drop section builder included. A developer can add a new section cleanly without touching core theme files by using a child theme.

Can I use Asana theme for a WooCommerce store?

Asana is compatible with WooCommerce at a basic level, but the shop, cart, and checkout pages will inherit minimal styling and may look unstyled without additional work. A developer can write targeted CSS and template overrides to bring WooCommerce pages in line with the Asana design. For a store-first site, this is worth doing properly from the start.

Is the Asana WordPress theme still supported by HighSea?

HighSea has not been consistent with update releases for Asana. Check the theme’s changelog on ThemeForest or the HighSea site for the last update date. If the theme has not been updated in over a year, it may have compatibility gaps with current WordPress versions. A developer can audit the theme and patch any conflicts caused by outdated code.

How do I change fonts in the Asana WordPress theme?

Asana handles font selection through the WordPress Customizer under the Typography section. You can choose from a set of bundled Google Fonts and adjust sizes for headings and body text. If you need a font that is not in the default list, a developer can enqueue it manually and add the Customizer control to expose it as a selectable option.
