Tema perfetto e assistenza immediata

by bigportal·3 years ago

Tema perfetto, meglio se nella versione Premium ad un costo assolutamente accessibile, con svariate possibilità di personalizzazione. Ma la cosa più importante è l’assistenza del team, che immediatamente mi ha risolto alcune difficoltà dovute ai miei limiti di conoscenza css. Bravi!!

Just a multioptions marvellous theme and effcient support

by sierranorte·4 years ago

This theme is simply perfect, you can change a lot of options to get the web template you want: different menus, colours, widgets, with or without sidebar…easy to change.
For the moment always updated, something very important if you use wordpress.
Designers simply help you if you have any problem, quick answer and taking in mind if you have or not knowledge about programmation languages.
In a future, if I get enough clients, I would buy the premmium, worth it!!
