Hello,
Thanks for the topic.
Please, make sure you have checked all the server requirements before the installation – https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/60-xstore-theme-requirements (Contact your hosting provider and ask to increase required values).
“Products per row” can be changed via Customize > Woocommerce > Product Catalog settings.
Image size you can change via Customizer > Woocommerce > product images (do not forget to regenerate thumbnails) https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/89-product-images
To install plugins go to Appearance > Install Plugins. Read more – https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/36-included-plugins https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/38-activation-and-purchase-codes
About the slider issue, make sure that Slider Revolution plugin is enabled and you have some sliders imported.
