it's always best to try it yourself

I have been reading this review before I purchased the template which is the reason why I really took my time doing it.

However, I figured that from design it was really was I was looking for so I decided to buy it anyway.

I have been working on the template (pro version) for 10 hours straight just to figure out what it is capable of and to be able to write a review with pros and cons.

PROS:

• nifty design
• easy setup and thanks to the demo-data import i was able to quickly find out what it can do.
• tried with alot of plugins to cover everything i might need and so far every plugin was working with the template without any problems
• PRO Version: it keeps what the light version promises
• pre-sale support was excellent and very patient and I know myself to be very VERY annoying before I purchase something
• Thanks for the revolution slider that came with the pro version of this template. Its just WOW

CONS:

• Some settings withing the theme don’t seem to be working. to be more specific: when i select a pattern for the page it doesn’t do anything. tried with fullwidth and boxed layout. also there seems to be an issue with prettyurls but simply changing the layout of them resolves it, took me some time though to figure that out. specially when you don’t know where to look.. i dont even know why I looked there because all I knew at this time was that none of links “teammember” was working but others again did. there are some other things that aren’t working well but this aint a troubleshoot board isnt it? 🙂
• during presale I was promised a support chat but somehow that one disappeared 🙂

Improvements:

• Add some alignments to grids and galleries. At the moment when i remove one box in a four column line the 3 boxes left are aligned left.
• i maybe missing it but for most of the features there is no way to change the colors and fonts for the content i.e. footer free-text. there’s some coding experience needed which I don’t mind because I’m getting paid for this extra stuff anyway. however there is a high risk that my clients may choose another template because they do have these possibilities.
• oh and just in case you turned off chat-support: please turn it back on again 🙂

My 2 cents:

• yes most of the links from the demo-import are linked to their site but I really cant relate to the pre-post who apparently finds this out of line. I for myself when I setup a new template for my clients do the same thing and has helped me to advertise for free as many mods have been added to the site who didn’t know me yet. The fact that the template has not been removed yet because of this “dirty advertising” tells me that wordpress is ok with it so why aren’t regular user? sorry I just needed to state this because rating a template like this one so bad because of these reasons is not really fair to the developers/providers

Oh and before any questions arise and to save the “Resident Multiple Account Tracker™” (nice one actually) some time: I registered today, yes. I bought the template yesterday, yes and I was using/testing the free version before that. I’m just a guy who followed his intuition instead of completely relying to one bad review 🙂
