Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Looks good, but product marketing is poor.

Looks good, but product marketing is poor.

While ThemeFrame looks promising, I'm finding it very frustrating trying to locate any details or answers to simple questions. The only public information on this product is a single web page with scant information and two buttons; "Ask Questions" which links to this forum, and "View Video" which is a poorly made screen cast.

There is no centralized location where everything is explained, where screenshots can be found, a FAQ or a wiki, no "getting started" or list of features. Judging from the amount of users who posted their problems just trying to locate where to download this after paying the $80 donation, I wonder if customer support will exist at all. I read that the "beta" price kept increasing with new releases. Beta price increases? Not a good sign.

Maybe this is the best WYSIWYG template builder for WordPress. But how do I know it won't be obsolete with the next version of WP? Building a great software product isn't enough. You need to present it (with more than a static single web page), support it (more than relying on a forum), and market it (more than hawking a price increase after beta testing). Most of all, you need to convince developers, like myself, that this product is worthy of my hard-earned cash before I risk taking a chance.

Flynn, please get your marketing act together before you launch this as a viable product. Doing this will increase "donations" and give us some confidence you'll be around to update WP 4.0. Thanks.
