Importing demo content problems

Shapely
1

I followed the following steps:

  1. installed Wordpress
  2. installed the Shapely theme and activated it and updated it.
  3. followed the documentation to install the demo content.
  4. My site now looks crap, nothing like the demo: https://simplevice.com/

When importing the demo files, not all files could be imported.

XML file import:

Hey there

You have to install and activate all necessary plugins, including Jeptack
When you see “already exists” this means content was already imported and you did import process more than one times, basically this is not the problem

Thanks Noda! I thought I had activated all plugins already but I clearly didn’t! The site (simplevice.com) looks almost like the demo now.
When I try the Widget import again, only two items fail now:

shapely_home_portfolio 	Our Latest Projects 	Site does not support widget
shapely_home_testimonial 	What Our Customers Say 	Site does not support widget

It is unclear to me which plugin(s) I still need to get these two widgets to work? This is my current list of installed and activated plugins:
Akismet Anti-Spam
Colorlib Login Customizer
Contact Form 7
Jetpack by WordPress.com
Loginizer
Shapely Companion
Simple Custom Post Order
Widget Importer & Exporter
WordPress Importer

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

Please go to Appearance > Install Plugins and install the plugins available there then try to run the import once more.

Best Regards,
Support

All done. [Have fun!]

Remember to update the passwords and roles of imported users.

I am not getting what plugins to install for solving this issue.

Please start a new private ticket and I will help you to import the demo, I need access details but you can only post them in a private conversation
