Chabad House Website

This template was carefully developed from real-world experience and years of client feedback, built for the specific needs of a Chabad House website. We listened… and poured hours of UX/UI strategy into building something that truly works for you: A polished, balanced layout that’s professional yet warm, upscale yet approachable, with the colors, vibe and sophistication that represent your Chabad House well. Everything you need is already built in: a dynamic events calendar, automatic local candle lighting times, and subtle animations that keep visitors engaged. No outdated systems, no ongoing developer costs. You won’t find a template more perfectly catered to Chabad Houses anywhere on the market. (Trust us, after years of requests, we’ve looked…)

Both! This template is built to accommodate those who want to keep their ChabadOne website but have an upgraded look, or for those wanting a new website built on WordPress. If you’ve been thinking about making the move to WordPress to take advantage of everything its visual builder has to offer, this is a great place to start.

Yes, there are a few limitations to be aware of before purchasing the ChabadOne version. Many of our clients prefer to stay on ChabadOne to enjoy its many benefits and to avoid changing platforms. That said, if a modern experience — both as an admin and for your visitors — is a priority for you, WordPress may be the better fit. See the limitations below if you’re considering the ChabadOne version:

1. No Visual Page Builder: ChabadOne uses a basic page editor, so you won’t be able to drag and drop photos, buttons, or create side-by-side layouts. The WordPress version is built with a visual builder that lets you customize images, buttons, colors, backgrounds, and more on any page of your site, all without touching a line of code.
2. Upcoming Events Section:
   For Visitors: On WordPress, each event links directly to its own page, while on ChabadOne, users must click twice: once on the event list and then again on the calendar to reach the event page.
   For Admins: WordPress streamlines event creation into a single setup that automatically displays the event on your homepage, calendar, and RSVP system (if you purchase the RSVP add-on). ChabadOne requires two separate steps: creating a calendar entry and building an individual event page, then manually linking the two.
3. Calendar Page: Our WordPress version includes a matching calendar page with each event showing up alongside the calendar in a modern layout. With ChabadOne, the calendar defaults to the standard ChabadOne layout.
4. Connect with Us Section: This section can only have the email list subscription form, not the contact form available on the WordPress version.
5. Photos Feed Section: Pulling in photos automatically from Instagram is not available with ChabadOne.

To these differences visually, take a look at our WordPress site vs our ChabadOne site and choose what suits your needs best. (We suggest you open each on different screens to compare them side by side).

One word: Impressive. 100% Mobile-friendly.

The beauty of this package is that you’re getting a professionally designed, fully functional website at half the cost of a custom build, precisely because we’re working within the template. Think of it like off the rack vs. made to measure: the fit is great, the quality is there, and you walk away looking sharp, for a fraction of the price.

A custom site starts at $8,000. This gets you in at $4,000. That savings comes from one thing: we keep the design and structure as is. The moment we start customizing layout, structure, or design, we’re back in custom territory and the price reflects that.

So if the template works for you, you’re getting serious value. If you find you need more down the road, we can always do those hourly at additional cost.

Your purchase includes the homepage and inside page template exactly as seen here, with basic customization of 9 areas. No customization on overall design and structure of the homepage — this keeps it simple so we can give you a great deal. (NOTE: The links on the navigation bar will automatically appear based on the content pages you create.)

Yes, however that’s not included in the scope of this project. To avoid additional cost, this is something you can handle easily on your own. On WordPress, the visual builder makes it simple to drag and drop new pages, and we’ll provide a manual to walk you through it. On ChаbadOne, the built-in editor is straightforward and intuitive enough to get your pages up without much trouble. That said, if you’d prefer we handle it for you with the same intentional UX/UI strategy that went into the homepage, we’re happy to do that as an add-on, billed hourly — just reach out and we’ll get the ball rolling.

Forms aren’t included in the purchase of this template, but we thought about this for you. If your site is on ChabadOne and you create your own forms, they’ll continue to sync with your CRM automatically. For WordPress sites, we offer CRM integration at a custom cost, based on the CRM platform you’re using — just select that add-on at checkout and we’ll be in touch to discuss the details.

Sure can.

Sure can.

Yes! We’d be happy to edit the colors to match your school’s branding at an additional fee of $450.

The impressive video is included at no charge to you!  We get that it might not be absolutely perfect for your needs, so as a courtesy, we’re willing to remove up to 2 clips. If you’d like us to add some of your own clips we’ll be happy to create a custom version for you, billed hourly. 

Once we receive all your content, your site will be live within 2 weeks. That’s it. No long drawn-out timelines, no waiting around. Send us your details quickly and we’ll get you online, fast.
