Nala!
An eco-conscious WordPress website template for non-profits and charities
Are you a charity or NFP that values sustainability and the environment?
Do you want a website that minimises your environmental impact while helping you achieve your goals?
Check out Nala!
About the template
Nala is a fully-responsive website template built with WordPress, Elementor Pro, and Hello theme.
Nala is eco-conscious! She’s designed with a focus on keeping the website carbon footprint smaller than standard sites, which makes her perfect for NFPs and charities that are eco-conscious and value sustainability. Her lower carbon footprint means not only is she minimising her impact on the environment, she also loads super fast!Â
Nala has been designed to work on all screen sizes, no matter if your site visitors are viewing your site on a desktop, tablet or mobile – Nala is viewable for all!
All colours, graphics, photos and text are fully customisable to meet your needs and branding, and can be easily switched out with copy and paste or drag-and-drop!
(Note: Nala uses a more limited number of media/images than a standard website as these add to page size and weight. To keep the site lower on the carbon emissions, it’s recommended to limit how many images you use and always compress or convert them to .webp format.)
BONUS: This template is essentially NO CODE! (i.e. no code required by you!)
If you’re looking for a carbon-conscious, professionally-designed website that you can DIY to launch quickly, Nala is what you want!

what you'll need to use this website template
To get Nala up and running on your website, you’ll need the following:
website hosting
This is where your website will 'live'. You can find a list of recommendations for website hosts here.
Your content
Images and text and so much more! Looking for inspo on what you can include? Grab my content prompt freebie here!
WordPress installed
Almost every web host includes WordPress in their plans and it's easy to set up using the auto-installer. I also provide a short video in the library.
Note: Don't use WordPress.com.
Your branding
Any logos, colours or branding assets you have can be plopped into the new template suite.
Elementor & Elementor Pro
This is the drag-and-drop page builder we use - no code required!
Integrations
If you want to embed e.g. a form that links to your CRM, grab that code - I'll show you where you can include it!
and lastly...
Some time to customise Nala so she works for you!
why a template could work best for you
Templates aren’t for everyone but here are a few reasons why they could be the best thing to happen to you and your business
hip-pocket friendly
This template is priced at a fraction of what you can expect to pay for a fully custom-build (particularly e-commerce!)... yet you're still getting a custom look!
easy to customise
The templates have been created to look custom-built but still be easy enough for ANYONE to edit them. And with access to my full suite of training videos, you're all set!
custom look
This template has been designed by a professional web designer. My 20+ years of website experience has been distilled into creating a template that looks good and WORKS.
low ongoing costs
Website hosting, domain, Elementor Pro (Advanced Solo). Those are the only true ongoing costs when you use any of my templates. No need to be paying $30+ per month on a specific platform!
launch quickly
Nala has been designed so you can pop your content and branding in and GO! No waiting around on waitlists, no agonising over how to make something work. The hard work has been done for you.
you own your website
Unlike other website platforms, you 100% own your website. You're not reliant on a platform keeping your site up and running.

Frequently asked questions
No, I don’t think it is. When I first started 15+ years ago, it was pretty involved but these days there are some AMAZING auto-installers which have made WordPress a breeze to install! (Literally, some of them use the label “1-click install” – it doesn’t get much simpler.)
Again, once upon a time but it’s not the case any more. With page builders like Elementor and their drag-and-drop interface, it’s made creating websites so much easier.
I think the main issue people have with WordPress is there’s “so much”. It’s a robust, multi-functional platform and that can be overwhelming for some people, I get it! But if you focus only on what you need to focus on, it becomes a lot less daunting.
Nope! These pages have been designed to be no (or low) code. As a professional web designer I know HOW to code, but I also know I don’t WANT to code. So I try to limit that as much as possible.
Most of the customisations in these designs (regarding colours, fonts and spacing) have all been done with the Elementor page builder – the customisations are built right in!
The template is “essentially” no code. There is a small line of CSS that fixes up a spacing quirk in Elementor. I mention it in the videos but you don’t need to do anything with it – you can basically forget it even exists. 😉
Yes, the Advanced Solo level is what you need.Â
Elementor Pro provides much more customisation and design functionality (e.g. the site-wide headers and footers, animated headlines, etc) – it essentially makes it easier to customise a beautiful site!
If you don’t purchase the premium plugin, I can’t guarantee your experience and/or results will be the same. (Because I’ve used ‘Pro’ features in the design and build, if you don’t have a Pro licence, those features won’t work.)
Elementor Pro’s Advanced Solo licence is US$79 per year (at the time of writing) and you can purchase yours here: https://elementor.com/pricing-plugin/
The template itself is a one-time investment amount – you purchase it and it’s yours for life.
There are ongoing costs with a WordPress website, some of which are below.
- WordPress platform: FREE! The software is open source and free for all to use.
- Website hosting: This will either be a monthly or annual amount and completely depends on the host you go with. You can get hosting for as cheap as $5/mth up into the $50-$60/mth range.
- Elementor Pro: US$79 per year (at the time of posting). This is a premium plugin that gives access to added design functions (‘bells & whistles’) and generally makes the customisation process easier.
- Hello theme: FREE! Created by the folks behind Elementor, Hello is (in their words) “forever free”.
- Domain name: Regardless of which website platform you use, if you intend on having a domain name, there will be an annual cost for that. For a standard .com or .com.au domain, you can expect to pay around the AU$15-$25/year mark.
Absolutely! These templates have been designed for exactly that. The video tutorials take you through how to change them on the ‘global’ (i.e. site-wide) side and then also how to edit them per element (if there’s a specific item you want a different colour).
…you don’t want to use your own branding and/or logo fonts?
The main body text on any of my templates is usually a free font that is widely available, such as through Google Fonts.
No, the graphical elements and photos are used purely as placeholders for your own brand-related assets & icons.
If you don’t have any assets of your own, you can search for free or paid ones online and upload them to replace the ones I’ve used.
Very easy. When you get into the backend, you’ll see how easy it is. But if you’re switching out text, it’s literally click on that particular bit of text you want to change, then paste your own in!
Yep, absolutely! I provide a full video suite that takes you through how to set up and install everything, as well as make any changes AND push the website live.
I completely understand – sometimes DIY can be a bit much. Great for the wallet but not always so good for your time or energy!
If you don’t think working with a template is for you, I offer semi-custom website set-ups through a ‘Website in a Week’ model – using one of the Whale Tail Digital templates, I’ll do the the building and customisation FOR YOU and have it ready to launch within a week! Just provide me with all your content and branding and I’ll look after the rest!
If you’re interested in this service, reach out (fill in the webdesign enquiry fields).
Sure do! You can pay off the template over 4 weekly payments – just select the option during checkout (it should be directly under the credit card option) and follow the prompts to set up your payment plan.
Note: The payment plan is administered by Partial.ly and Stripe. I don’t see any bank account or credit card details.
Do you have a question not included here? Send it to hello@whaletaildigital.com.au and I’ll get right on it!
