Review HERO: a retina-ready HTML5 + CSS3 mobile template (Mobile)

HERO: a retina-ready HTML5 + CSS3 mobile template (Mobile) Description:

Hello there and many thanks for showing interest in ‘HERO’! This template is based on one of ThemeForest’s highest-rated mobile WordPress themes (it is only surpassed by Spartan, another one of Bonfire’s creations), and makes setting up your site an utter breeze.

Unlike some other templates, ‘HERO’ allows for super fast editing of your site thanks to the use of includes. For example, need to add an item to the menu? No need to go through the dull task of making the change on every single page on your site; simply edit a dedicated menu file to apply the change. You’ll be making site-wide changes in seconds. Literally.

‘HERO’ is also a carefully coded template (HTML5 and CSS3 validated) with different sections of each page clearly commented. That alone will massively reduce the time it takes for you set up the site and make changes afterwards.

Once you make the purchase, you’ll immediately have access to both this demo site’s files (both html and php versions are included, depending on which you prefer) as well as a secondary set of pages which display blocks of code below each content element; to set up your site, you can just copy-paste blocks of code where you want, all without having to dig around in the code to figure out how the template is built.

Additionally, there’s documentation that includes straightforward instructions on how to set up the menu etc.

‘HERO’ is also thoroughly tested and is well acquainted with iOS, Android and Windows devices, plus even desktop browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, Opera).

And finally, should you need a quick question answered, we’ll be here for you. As with people who’ve purchased our previous themes can attest to, our support is to die for. Here’s what some of our clients have to say about Bonfire Themes:

“This is by far the best support I’ve gotten on TF.”
“Excellent theme, fantastic support … You have solved my mobile headache.”
“Best support I’ve ever seen! .. Five stars is not enough!”
“Thank you for your swift reply!”
“I am impressed by the speed of your answer :)”
”... customer service provided goes above and beyond … An excellent experience from start to finish.”
“Thanks a lot for your help – very quick!”
”... extreme fast response!!!”
“Wow, thanks for the prompt response.”
“Excellent response time, man. Awesome service.”
”... quick to respond and very helpful.”
”... documentation [has] been a great help…”
“Thank you very much for the super-quick support.”
“Thanks for such a speedy response! You rock man!”

If you have any pre-sale questions, you can contact us directly through our ThemeForest profile, by emailing bonfirethemes[at]gmail.com or submitting your query on this template’s comments section on ThemeForest.

Thanks again, and do have fun browsing through the demo site!

Review Q-and-A, WP Questions and Answers (Miscellaneous)

Q-and-A, WP Questions and Answers (Miscellaneous) Description:

UPDATES!

 ->May 11, 2013 - THEME UPDATE :     - fix for paginated static home page when using nice permalink structure, "question" shortcodes patch    - files affected: "admin/shortcodes.php", "admin/custom_functions.php",                      "header.php", "search-question.php", "taxonomy-question_category.php",                       "taxonomy-question_tags.php"  ->April 26, 2013 - Edit user profile page update    - files affected: "page-edituser.php"  ->April 20, 2013 - "Elite Users" Widget patch    - files affected: "functions.php"  ->April 15, 2013 - INITIAL RELEASE!

Q-and-A Introduction

Q-and-A is a simple and powerful question-and-answers-like WordPress theme. It doesn’t really matter whether you are about to run specific niche Q-and-A site (like math, coding, marketing, etc.) or a simple questions and answers site relating to the product you sell, I’m sure you gonna find this theme extremely useful. Moreover, what you can end up with is a small or even large scale community site that binds people who share the same interest.

Both Questions and Answers are posted via theme’s front-end which means site users will never reach the dashboard. By answering the question users collect reputation points. Of course, only if their answer is good enough! Otherwise the reputation could go down which is bad. Answer that gets accepted by the question author should bring the greatest score.
Everyone willing to participate in your Q-and-A site must be registered. Only the official site registrants can participate actively and maintain their profile page (password, age, location, bio, etc.)!

Theme’s Options let site Admin(s) to upload site logo, favicon, change all the colors, font size and family (title, content, links), handle reputation points, customize main navigation, min and max number of chars relating to user inputs, etc. Literally, it’s the matter of minutes to customize look and feel of the theme without any knowledge of CSS or HTML.

You’ve got a tool (I dare to say the real WordPress driven application), you’ve got an idea so mix all up into something cool. It’s almost like having an oxydizer and charcoal dust

Q-and-A – Highlights

Front-end Question post
Front-end Queston and Answer edit
Answer commenting
Uses Markdown editor
Built-in voting system
User reputation management
Front-end user profile editor
