WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY


A truly epic theme!
I spent the last 6 months building my website focused around news style/magazine but after seeing this… instantly fell in love with it. I’m going to do some pretty crazy hacks to this!
Kudos to you!



Awesome theme + great support! Five starts from me!



I bought it, it’s an awesome theme, so flexible.



Wonderful theme. I purchased a grand total of 4 premium themes, prior to finding this. None of them were perfect.
This is exactly what I wanted. A professional, responsive BuddyPress theme, it’s superb. – tehkseven



Well, I recommend it for every single Wordpress-fanatic who wants to work with Buddypress. Installation was easy, setting up the components (sorry, ex Joomla user) was done within minutes and every plugin I tried worked out of the box and that is something that was a pain in the #*@ at other themes. Really great job on this theme, pretty easy to customise by the way. – lastpost



Thanks for the quick service support. I highly recommend this theme. – consultsite



Just want to say I’ve been working with this theme since it’s release and I rate both it and Dan’s support very highly! – FlipFl0p



Easy to customize, makes the job, good documentation, cleverly coded, important options are there, powerful features and good BuddyPress and bbPress integration, a big + for Woocommerce. – ganjou

WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY


YOU ARE THE MAN! The tech support you give makes the theme worth every cent!



Ohhhh my! This is huge and so easy to use!!!! Veeeery nice job guys!!!! I am totally exited…pffiuuuu and also totally angry because I won’t sleep for next 5 nights! ^^



I’m going to be really tearing into this over the next couple days, so I’m sure I will be posting a lot here. I just want to say before posting any bugs I find that this is the best BP theme I’ve tested (and I have tested them all). Like any new theme it has a couple bugs (there is only so much one team can test for), but it seems to have a solid foundation. There is a couple other popular BP themes on TF and while they make look nice in a demo the code is complete junk.



I have to say that support is great. About mid-afternoon, I had a collection of questions (there were 5 of them) and I placed them onto the support site. All, bar one, have now been answered and I am very happy with that service.
I said bar 1 because that one is a little more involved and GhostPool are going into my admin for me to take a look and, to be honest, it is probably not a theme error but a conflict error.
I’m saying this here because I use the comments section to see comments about support, so thought I would let those thing of purchasing know
Another thing, and this isn’t official, I’m using WooCommerce on my Bounce site and, following a single line change provided by GhostPool, everything works with no edits required on the WooCommerce files.



We have tested every Buddypress theme on TF and this is the only one we can recommend buying. It is a very strong base for developers and has just the right amount of admin features for non-developers.



I love your theme and wanted to thank you for your great support as well. You’ve answered a lot of my questions in the forum really well.



I thought I’d add that this is a great theme. I have been developing a really cool community website similar to a meetup.com type of event page with it. Even with 3 or 4 large plugin integrations it is still working like a champ. Constant updates and easy to read documentations. Good job GhostPool!



Still the best BP theme around…we built http://smeak.com on this theme, and yes we have done extensive modifications to the original css, but without the foundation of this brilliant theme, none of this would have been possible. thank you. – gregmc

Great theme and solid support. For a review/BuddyPress community it’s the best choice.



This theme is my favourite WP theme. Many options and everything is easy to handle. If there is any question you didn’t get answered in the help file, you can ask the very fast and friendly support. I really like your work. Go on with this!



To anyone considering buying this theme, don’t hesitate! It is such a powerful theme and you can do so much with it. There is always help available on the GhostPool forum too so any problems will always be answered. Is it worth $50? No, it’s worth so much MORE! You won’t be disappointed, I just wish I’d bought it sooner!



Just wanting to post here and say GhostPool you are amazing! Your support is top-notch and your themes are top-notch! Keep up the good work.



Thought to let everyone I’ve been using Score theme for a very long time and I cannot recommend this theme enough. It’s powerful, very customisable, flexible with editing and an as always provides great help to everyone regularly. I’d like to thank Dan for his continued support with this theme and the amount of work he has done and for those considering this theme, it’s a no brainer.

Some nice things customers are saying…


You would be crazy not to purchase this theme, it’s got Everything!!! – furious373



Congrats on a great theme. I only wish I had found this sooner and not wasted my money on other themes. – Cheers Tony



This great theme is created by someone with a great vision. I’ve been playing with it for a while now and all I can say is “wow”. This could very well be the future of Wordpress. I really think it is!



It is just beautiful—well crafted and deep in its options. Thank you for the fine work.



It’s actually the best theme out of more than the 100 themes I bought on the forest…



This is an amazing looking theme. YOU HAVE JUST RAISED THE BAR when it comes to themeforest designs. Thank you!!!.



I just bought this theme like 2 days ago and wanted to say, out of the hundreds of WordPress themes I’ve used this is literally the best and pretty much makes the rest obsolete since you have so many options, with containers/layouts and shortcode especially. I won’t even have the need to look for another WordPress theme for a long time. 35 dollars is a steal!!



Firstly this is a fantastic theme. I’ve never seen a slider like that before, and the admin options are astounding.



This Theme may be the best theme ever made. I am a novice at Wordpress, but Andy has built a templete even I can use. It takes some time for sure to find all the cool things you can do. I have already begun to migrate my Joomla corporate site over to wordpress because this theme has everything I need. The most powerful feature may even be the custom forms.



I have purchased about 10 themes on here and the support given by this seller is clearly the best!



Another awesome theme! I think I own all of your themes!



I bought this theme sometime last week and have been working to set it up on my test site, learning the ropes as they say and I think there is a lot of power in the theme. It caught my eye from the first moment and I purchased it. I think the power lies in the fact that it can be customized for almost any page, different settings for headers, layout, footers etc.



Above and beyond what others are doing, it has endless possibilities.



This theme rocks! OK, so I am a fairly experienced WordPress Developer but you can slot together a website in 60 minutes flat! That has to be a record! Nice job with this theme. Love the new config options, whole new way of putting together a WordPress theme



I’m just beginning to understand the features of this Wordpress theme and I can say, damn, this is the best Wordpress theme I’ve ever seen!

I bought this theme last week and it is by far the most flexible, innovative, supported and documented WordPress theme I have ever come across. Amazing work. – resellerdepot




I buy themes from TF like women buy shoes and this has been the BEST user experience in crafting a custom site (with BuddyPress to boot!) that I’ve had. Better than WooThemes, Thesis, Genesis, BuddyBoss, PageLines, Press75, etc etc. – gopherdogs




Between the amazing aesthetic design and the superbly thought out backend, this theme could not be praised enough.
Congratulations on an excellent job.

WOW … I just wanted to get on here and say that the support forum is one of the best I have been on. Great community and easy to use. I have found most of my questions answered already there. This theme is getting 5 stars from me. Not just for the ease of use but because of the support I am getting in the Forums. I think I will be getting Mingle next. Thanks so much!!!!! – findley75494




Its all about support, and I very much doubt that I could get better support than I have through Parallelus, even though, at the end of the day, it wasn’t a problem with the theme at all, but with the server. I would never have solved this for myself, even though I consider myself an experienced Wordpress user – completely out of my depth.

After all this the big question is. Would I buy from Parallelus again? Yes, I would, with a good feeling as well, because I know that I will get excellent support. – musicmovement






I recently joined the // (Parallelus) family after I purchased another BP theme and it failed miserably. I’ve been enjoying your product and I love that there is such a big community around support. – mikeg
