Design Template for Your Blog Part II
Support and Community
Before buying a template for your blog, ask yourself, Is the site buy the Theme, has the developer community, ready to respond to requests in case of problems with the implementation of the design? We must ensure that the provider makes available to its customers, forums and resources for troubleshooting. Interactions also reviews and inquiries from other users who already have the template. Read the difficulties and see how they are resolved or have been solved or not. This will help you realize the quality and reliability of the product you’re buying.
There are cases of users after buying the theme, are faced with a series of mistakes without knowing how to solve them. In other cases, users find that what they were running the template preview before you buy it really does not work when the theme is installed on your platform and worst of all, you do not have anyone who will help or provide the support it deserves. So, make sure the level of support provided by the site trying to purchase the template.
See the minimum requirements
Complementing the above, we should always check which are the minimum requirements for the template to be functional, ie, browser compatibility, software version (eg if it supports the latest version of wordpress), no additional plugins needed for operation, among others. This is important because it is not fair that after purchasing the theme, we realize that the template only works perfect in Internet Explorer, for example.
User manuals and documentation
This is an important factor when selecting a template for our project because they have the best tutorials and documentation required in setting up the theme. User manuals, help you use the template with ease, speeding up development. Besides the learning curve is shortened significantly and the time invested in learning how to put the template function is less than if we work with a theme where we have to go guessing how to configure everything.
