BoomBox support listens to its customers and continues to develop a great theme to make it even better. Highly recommended.
For the 3rd time, 3 key plugins are disabled on their own in the theme, without any admin notification: BoomBox Theme Extensions, Zombify, and Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress. It appears that the developer has access to the backend of every website. We understand that he needs to control licenses, but there are many ways to do this. Currently, it is also necessary to install Envato Market; without this plugin, the website will stop working unexpectedly and without notice after some time!
This had been a fine theme, up until a few days ago. As a result, I frankly don’t trust this developer anymore. Inexplicably, the Boombox theme was removed from ThemeForest a couple of days ago, and the developer’s code took that opportunity to disable 2 plugins and deactivate the theme on a live site I manage. For days, the homepage was a scramble of shortcode. No way will I trust PX-lab until they reassure that this will NEVER happen again. And give proof that it will NEVER happen again. Perhaps they’ve put these things in place to help prevent theft. But it’s your paying customers that have paid the price for your overzealous anti-theft practices. Badly done, PX-lab. Badly done.
This is a big scam also no updates. I wish I could return my money back.
Love it. Never seen a theme that is working so perfectly like this theme.
I have been using this theme for some years. Years after I realized that they had already made many changes around the WordPress system and had already created a monster, I decided to use another theme. Still, what was my surprise, the content of the 500 articles that I had written during those years had been encrypted and stored in the database in a very dubious way in terms of programming and database design. I do not recommend this theme for the reasons I already mentioned. The theme creators advantageously decided that the content generated through their theme stays in their theme, and you can’t easily take it anywhere without continuing to rely on their Zombify plugin.
It would be better if you bring the “follow” feature instead of the “add friend”, like Instagram. It becomes a more effective site for those who use the theme, if the notification goes away when it create content for those who follow that person. Also, those who can’t read at the moment, save it so that they can read the content later when they are available. They can add it to their collections (I mean, members but non-authors) like the “save” feature on Instagram.
The seller provided quick responses to my inquiries.
