attractive theme, good support

by stevebrighton·2 years ago

This is an attractive theme, which was easy enough for a non-web-professional like me to work with. The result looks good on phones, tablets and PC screens. Very helpful email support from Motopress when I ran into a couple of unexpected problems.

Awesome template

Nice template

Superb theme with many features

by Torsten Landsiedel·8 years ago·1 reply

We use this theme a lot.

You get a very professional looking site very fast. Most one pager are very restrictive. Emmet Lite allows you to change the order of things, change the primary color, hide/show elements and much more. And after having some problems with their page builder I can say the support is friendly and fast.

Even better, they provide some really great plugins which are highly recommended too.

Great work!

All the best,
Torsten

P.S.: 4 stars, because Font Awesome is just 4.3. Please update and I will update to 5 stars 😉
