WPremix WordPress Theme Review – Use WordPress As A CMS

Imagine Using WordPress As A True CMS System!

Recently, I managed to get my hands on the WPremix WordPress theme. Look, I test a million and one thees these days, running this site certainly does have its benefits, and I kind of made an impulse decision to go ahead and purchase this theme, I had already heard all of the positive shit chat about this theme, so the idea of parting with $75 to get my grubby little mitts on this theme didn’t really phase me, even if this was for the single use license only.

First things first, on the home page for this theme, they do make some very bold claims (as do most premium themes!). Either way, I will let you read for yourself:

“Bundled with more than 50 strategically designed and coded custom static page templates, the theme enables everyone to publish small sites in minutes saving weeks of time, maintaining top notch standards compliant quality.”

Now, I will be the first to admit, the claims made about the WPremix WordPress theme are indeed very bold, 50 templates including 10 home page templates, 20 inner site templates, another five gallery templates, and a ton more. So, if we pull out the calculator and have a look, that is a whopping 45 pages included, of course, with some roundups included. At the end of the day, you could also include the stock standard WordPress blog page, a contact page using a plugin, which brings the numbers up slightly.

Also shipping with the WPremix WordPress theme is a large handful of header and sidebar templates, which are located in a separate folder to the theme itself, of course, if you counted these templates, this brings the total count up and well over 50, although with the overall quality of this theme, this is not all that critical in my decision to go ahead and purchase this theme. It is the quality of the included templates in this theme where this theme gets it strength from, and the intricate selection process that went into selecting them for the final package.

If you pull apart the templates and examine them closely, it is very obvious that a lot of thought went into the overall layout of this theme, with the CSS cross browser compliance being very obvious. Lets not forget to mention how flexible the CSS styling actually is, it is literally like a box of building blocks that can be styled in any way that you like. A web designers dream. Even if you are not fluent in CSS, outsourcing this kind of work would be much cheaper, as this theme would involve much less work to customize.

Finally, the Remix theme has a support forum which stands behind the product. I found the forum support a bit different than most other forums. It seems to be modeled more after a private technical support forum than an open discussion format where any and everything is discussed. This has never prevented me from getting answers to my questions regarding the theme. I actually observed response times of less than an hour in many instances when a question had been asked. I noticed that the moderator will tactfully redirect you to support links if you do not ask questions directly related to the theme, i.e., do not expect to get support for setting up Google Analytics at the Remix forum.

So, a final call to action. You are going to either love this theme or hate it. It comes with a full refund guarantee of course, so you are more than welcome to go ahead and try it out risk free. I recommend it, especially if you are trying to really bridge the gap between a your blog and your content based site. The WPremix theme has impressed me a lot, and I plan on putting it to good use on a full production site shortly, in the meantime, this is a great theme that will change how you approach creating those content based websites.
