How many times you’ve bought a great extension and found it doesn’t work with your custom theme? Now you have everything built-in and ready to start your main business – selling!
Responsive design – UniVersum is 100% responsive theme all the way down to 380px, capable to work on every device you can imagine. Don’t need responsiveness – no problem! You can turn it ON/OFF with a single click. Due to it’s e-commerce orientation, the theme works perfect on resolutions between 380 and 2400px. Lower resolutions are not supported because of the shopping cart tables, but the theme works perfect in landscape format even on smaller sizes like iPhone and low-end Android devices.

Localization – the UniVersum theme is 100% translatable! There is not even a single string which can’t be easily translated via language file. No more digging into PHP code.
Skins and Unlimited colors – UniVersum theme comes initially with 7 pre-built skins (Default magenta skin, Blue skin, Green Skin, Orange skin, Red skin, Dark skin and Minimal skin). However, all the sins are fully editable and you can still change every single aspect of them with a single click. We are aimed at creating a new skin every month so the things could only get better.
SEO optimized – the UniVersum theme comes with optimized code to ensure your store would be ranked as higher as possible. The layout and code were reworked to ensure readable and semantic structure for the search engine and the custom modules were built with SEO in mind.
Custom modules – when it comes to custom modules, it’s all about functionality and what a store really need! So we built all these cool things for you:
News system – need to publish news and promotions on your store? We have it built-in! You don’t need to purchase an expensive third-party module!
AJAX shop-by-price – could you imagine an e-commerce site without a price-filter system! Well… we have it!
Catalog mode – like the design and features but you’re not selling online and doesn’t wan’t to confuse your customers? Now you can switch between SHOP and CATALOG with a single click.
Groupon style Countdown – always wanted to warn your customers about limited time offers! Now you have it built-in and you can switch it ON/OFF with just a click! And even more – unlike other third party extensions, the countdown is active not only in a single module, but works for all products with a special price.
TIRED OF READING??
Well, I am sorry, but there is even more!
Custom fonts – while it’s a standard to use google fonts in themes today, we moved a bit further. Don’t like the fonts we choose for you? No problem – use your CUSTOM font from google.
Fullscreen background – while most of the themes gives you the possibility to change the background image and even upload your own, we decided to go a bit further again! With the new UniVersum Fullscreen Background module you could easily have a single image background OR a fullscreen background slideshow for your store. And even more – as it was built like a standard module you could easily have a different background for every single page. Just create a new layout for this page, and apply an instance of the module to that layout.
Product Accordion slider – sometimes a store owner needs to draw the customers attention to specific offers. Now you have the Product Accordion module with a strong position in the header.
Fullwidth Flex slideshow – More space for your promotions! With this responsive custom slideshow module you can have a strong accent on your pages.
Custom module position – We understand the need to have more freedom in positioning your modules. That’s why we created the header module position available for all slideshow and banner modules! And that’s not all – banners would have a special layout if activated there, ensuring they’ll grab the customers attention!
Custom SMART product labels – as a store owner you always wanted to draw the attention on your new products or special offers. Now you have custom SMART product labels with configurable colors:
- - NEW label – you can set the time this label is active
- - SALE label
- - SAVE label – your custmers would know exactly how much they save on your special products
Two menu types – you can choose between the standard OpenCart menu style or the custom mega-menu with category thumbnails. WAIT – we are not finished! You could even include your own menu items with sub-menus and even HTML content!
Two product image preview types – Different stores have different needs. We didn’t wanted to limit your experience, so now you can choose between the default ColorBox JS plugin or the QloudZoom plugin.
Exceptional support – sometimes a default theme functionality just doesn’t fully fit or is simply not enough. We offer both technical support and paid customization services. All support questions would be answered in 12-24 hours. However, we still do hope you know the difference between support and customization requests!
Well, if you’re reading this line, it looks like you had the patience to read the whole theme description. Now it’s time to check the theme demo as it speaks best for itself!
And last but not least – no matter if you like the theme or not – we appreciate your ratings and feedback. Don’t forget to rate the theme after you bought it!
