I bought this theme Catch Box Pro, it’s been easy to use, simple and fast. The support is great, thank you for this.

Catch Box – love the theme and support is great

by dollyp·5 years ago

I’ve been using Catch Box theme for several years now and I love the simplicity of the design; it’s not over-the-top like some themes.

Support is excellent, quick, and every time I’ve used it, the reply came from the owner and was spot-on.

Excellent theme and support!

Using Catch Box theme since 2015, updated to Pro version, like it very much! My technical question was solved very fast! Thanks!!!

Catch Box theme is great

by andyjc·6 years ago

The Catch Box theme is fairly simple to use. I like the design and how the background field can be changed without going to the background of the content. Also has a great support site that comes up when I google to make modifications. They are provided free and usually spot on and provided by the actual founder of the theme most of the time. I work with the site on my local host on the computer and it uploads to my web hosted godaddy account and looks just as it does on my computer. The previous theme I tried using would not seem come close to looking like how I had the site looking on my local server. Kudos to the Catchtheme folks for making a great product.
