Choosing a Theme


Recommended Posts

Hi there!

 

I have narrowed my search for a theme to two themes:

 

http://themeforest.net/item/alysum-premium-prestashop-15-template/2622574?sso?WT.ac=search_item&WT.seg_1=search_item&WT.z_author=MarekMnishek

 

and

 

http://themeforest.net/item/fortium-responsive-prestashop-theme/3422508?sso%3FWT.ac=category_item&WT.seg_1=category_item&WT.z_author=3000themes&ref=3000themes&ref=3000themes&clickthrough_id=108892575&redirect_back=true

 

They are both reasonably priced and I might add that this is my first e-commerce site. Basically, I'm selling photographic prints--- Thousands of them. Ultimately, what I want to do is have a huge catalog that has an infinite scrolling feature (http://addons.prestashop.com/en/merchandizing-prestashop-modules/4899-infinite-endless-scroll.html) as well as the ability to zoom into images on the catalog (http://addons.prestashop.com/en/merchandizing-prestashop-modules/1914-magic-zoom-plus.html). I'm going to have a huge quantity of things with very few common themes that would make them easier to organize.

 

Anyways, I wanted to just see if anyone had any advice on here as to which they thought was a better theme for this purpose. How important is a responsive theme? Is it unrealistic to think these modules will work with these (popular) themes?

Whatever you choose, make sure you can get support from the developer. I too looked at Mareks theme but decided against it because it was not responsive (although he does have a responsive version of that theme in the works) He always answered questions and has a very active support forum on his site.

 

Ask the developers of the themes about the modules you are interested in and see what response you get to whether or not their themes are compatible and that your modules can be integrated. For a small fee they may even be able to do that for you.

 

Bottom line - make sure you can get support because NO themes are perfect unless you have one of the very capable developers here on the forum build one from scratch.
