WP Theme Question...

    Hey all -

    I am interested in buying the theme located at: http://www.revolutiontheme.com/business/

    I have never used a theme that has different sections in which you can upload content. For instance, the front page has company news, business news, etc.

    How is this content edited within the WP dashboard? Is it simple, or do you need to tweak the code at all?

    Any help would be great! Thanks in advance.

    That theme will let you pick the page design you want from a drop down list, in post edit mode.

    If you are new to wordpress excerpts and theme coding/editing and all, then that theme is not recommended. However, that theme is quite good :) If you need any pro help, i'm just a pm away and I'm also offering awesome deals with revolution themes. So let me know :)

    I haven't looked at this theme specifically, but it looks like it is using static pages, and static homepage options to edit these additional sections.

    From the looks of it, probably very little tweaks (which are easy to do if you go into the PHP files).

    Also, I'm not 100% sure but if the logo is only:
    [​IMG]

    Then you need photoshop to edit that into your own logo file or if you have a logo ready: resize it to 340 x 100 (so you don't need to change the code whatsoever)

    It's all easy to do from the dashboard for a begginer, they are just calling categories inside the template files from the looks of it so there should be no tweaks needed just basic dashboard knowledge!!
    Also if you ever need a help with the theme just drop the problem here they'll be solved in no time!!

    I've messed with these themes before, and what may seem easy for some of us, if you don't have any experience editing WP files and specifying images in WP themes you may get frustrated.
