    Hello,

    When I purchase a WP theme, do I also need to download the WP frame from wordpress.org before I start writing on the page?

    The reason for this question is that many theme sellers are stating the compatibilty of their theme to the latest version of Wordpress ( eg 3.x..)

    I am new in this so all advise are valuable to me. Thank u all.

    wordpress is the script
    theme is the design

    you install wordpress and apply design on that script

    and to clearly answer the question - yes you need to download and install the wordpress.

    by compatibility to latest version of wordpress means that the design will look as intended on wordpress 3.x
    because older versions of wordpress use different methods so it might not be looking same as demo.
    hope it will answer your question.
