A dream: Super clean code and child-theme ready
Fotomag was written following all modern WordPress coding standards, with regards to security, prefix best practises and file structure. The theme uses clean PHP, HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript code. The theme also comes with a ready-to-use child theme file that works instantly.
For all theme customizations (i.e. add or change the theme?s code to make it do something it doesn?t do or add specific functionality) you will need to hire a developer to help you out. It is recommended to look for one on http://studio.envato.com as that site is run by the same people who run Themeforest.
Suggestions for future updates?
If you have a suggestion that you think would improve the theme, please leave a comment with the details and it will be considered.
