04Getting Started & Installation
Get Trendexa running locally or on your live server in minutes.
Step 1 — Download & Extract
Download the full package from your ThemeForest Downloads page. Choose "All files & documentation". Extract the ZIP archive to your preferred working folder.
Step 2 — Open in Your Code Editor
Open the extracted trendexa-html/ folder in any modern code editor
such as Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, or WebStorm.
Step 3 — Preview Locally
Because Trendexa is a static template, you can simply double-click
index.html to open it in your browser. For best results — especially
to avoid browser security restrictions on local file access — run a small local
server:
# Using Python 3 python -m http.server 8000 # Using Node.js (http-server package) npx http-server . -p 8000 # Using PHP php -S localhost:8000
Then visit http://localhost:8000 in your browser.
Step 4 — Upload to Your Web Server
Once you are ready to go live, upload the entire folder contents to your web server's public directory using FTP (FileZilla, Cyberduck) or your hosting provider's file manager.

07CSS Files & Customization
Modify colors, typography, and spacing with confidence.
All theme styling lives inside the assets/css/ directory.
The main stylesheet contains your site's complete visual definition.
Main Stylesheet
The core stylesheet is loaded last so you can override anything by adding
custom rules at the end of the file or by creating a separate
assets/css/custom.css file linked after the main stylesheet.
Changing the Primary Brand Color
Open assets/css/style.css and search for the brand color value.
Replace it everywhere with your new color. We strongly recommend using
Find & Replace in your editor to update all instances at once.
/* Example: changing primary color */ :root { --brand-primary: #2563eb; /* Old */ --brand-primary: #16a34a; /* New */ }
Typography
Trendexa uses a clean sans-serif as the default. To change the font family
globally, modify the body rule:
body {
font-family: 'Poppins', 'Helvetica', sans-serif;
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 1.6;
color: #1e293b;
}
If you want to use Google Fonts, paste the import line at the top of
style.css:
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Poppins:wght@400;500;600;700&display=swap');
08JavaScript & Plugins
All interactive elements are powered by lightweight scripts.
Trendexa uses a small set of well-known JavaScript libraries to power
carousels, dropdown menus, and form interactions. All scripts are loaded
from the assets/js/ folder.
Included Scripts
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
| jQuery | Core utility library powering DOM manipulation and plugin behavior. |
| Slider / Carousel plugin | Drives the trending news, featured mobile, and upcoming mobile sliders. |
Custom main.js |
Theme-specific behaviors: menu toggle, scroll effects, "Back to top" button, slider initializations. |
Initializing a New Carousel
To turn any block of cards into a slider, give it a unique class and call
the slider initialization in main.js:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.your-custom-slider').slick({
slidesToShow: 4,
slidesToScroll: 1,
arrows: true,
dots: false,
responsive: [
{ breakpoint: 992, settings: { slidesToShow: 3 } },
{ breakpoint: 768, settings: { slidesToShow: 2 } },
{ breakpoint: 480, settings: { slidesToShow: 1 } }
]
});
});
Disabling a Script
If you don't need a particular feature, simply remove or comment out
its <script> tag in your HTML files.
09Header & Navigation
Customize the logo, social icons, and main menu.
Replacing the Logo
The default logo is located at assets/trendexa-logo.png.
To replace it, save your new logo with the same name and dimensions, or
update the image path in your HTML:
<a href="index.html"> <img src="assets/your-logo.png" alt="Your Brand"> </a>
Recommended logo dimensions: 180 × 50 pixels (PNG with transparent background). For high-DPI screens, supply a 2× version if possible.
Editing the Main Menu
The navigation is a simple unordered list. Each top-level item can have
a child <ul> for dropdown links.
<ul class="main-menu"> <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li> <li> <a href="#">Mobile</a> <ul> <li><a href="latest-mobile.html">Latest Mobiles</a></li> <li><a href="upcoming-mobile.html">Upcoming Mobiles</a></li> <li><a href="5g-mobile.html">5G Mobiles</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="compare.html">Compare</a></li> <li><a href="reviews.html">Reviews</a></li> <li><a href="news.html">News</a></li> </ul>
Social Icons
Update the href attributes of each social link in the header
to point to your real Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, and X (Twitter) pages.
10Page Sections Customization
Edit each homepage block to match your real content.
Trending News Block
Edit the three card items inside the .trending-news section.
Each card uses the same markup — change the image, date, title, and link.
Mobile Listing Grid
Each mobile card includes:
- Phone image — replace inside
assets/img/mobile-list/ - Phone name — for example, "Samsung Galaxy A54"
- Two action buttons — "Review" and "Details" linking to your pages
Brand Showcase
Add or remove brand entries inside the .brand-showcase
section. Each brand is a simple heading or card that you can link to a
filtered listing page.
Best Mobile by Price Slider
This carousel highlights "Best Mobile Under [Price]" cards. Edit each
card to feature a real device and price. The currency symbol is fully
configurable — replace the default Bangladeshi Taka symbol with
$, €, £, or any local currency code
to match your audience.
Popular Comparisons
The comparisons section lists "Phone A vs Phone B" links. Update the
text labels and link targets to load your compare.html with
the proper query parameters or pre-filled product data.
Upcoming Mobiles Carousel
Showcase phones that have not yet launched. Each card includes an image, device name, and tentative price.
How-To and Latest News Blocks
These two grids share the same card layout. Update the thumbnail, date, and headline for each entry. Long titles wrap automatically.
11Footer & Newsletter
The footer keeps brand information, legal links, and signup form together.
Footer Columns
The footer is divided into four logical columns:
- Brand block — logo, short tagline, and social icons.
- About Us — secondary navigation links such as Mobile, Web Stories, Sitemap.
- Terms & Conditions — Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Contact links.
- Newsletter signup — email field and submit button.
Connecting Newsletter Signup
The newsletter form ships with no back-end action by default. To make it functional, point the form to your provider:
<form action="https://your-provider.com/subscribe" method="POST" class="newsletter-form"> <input type="email" name="EMAIL" placeholder="Enter your email" required> <button type="submit">Subscribe</button> </form>
Popular providers and their endpoint patterns:
| Provider | Where to find your endpoint |
|---|---|
| Mailchimp | Audience → Signup forms → Embedded forms |
| ConvertKit | Forms → Settings → Embed code |
| Brevo (Sendinblue) | Contacts → Forms → Embed |
| Custom back-end | Your own server endpoint that accepts POST email |
