This theme does everything I wanted for a particular client, it has all the basic options anyone would want – extras like sliders can be added using plugins. It also has a nice dark, crisp, almost metallic look to it. Most of all is the support – any time I have had problems (there have been a small handful since Gutenberg and later WP versions) I have contacted the theme author via the forum at https://wordpress.org/support/theme/raindrops/ and within 24 hours the issue has been brilliantly resolved.
Have been using this one for years. The support is great and and always helpful
My PiercingMetal site was converted to WordPress in 2014 and I opted for the Raindrops Theme since it seemed to be as fluid as I needed it to be at the time of my site redevelopment. We are an online music magazine and post often and a reliable theme was paramount for this scenario. What I like is the constant updates to the theme so you are never sitting with a very old installation. Sure sometimes things get “broken” but the admins of the theme respond to the users and fix any bugs that come to pass. I hope to keep using this theme for awhile.
Raindrops es bueno y excelente el apoyo de Nobita, su realizador.
I have been using Raindrops for my Association’s website since 2014. It is highly customizable, and the support from the author, nobita, is first rate!
