Ideal for Circles and Sports Organizations
WordPress football, soccer, basketball, and baseball teams will love the Splash theme. The theme will help you win fans regardless of whether you are running a professional league, amateur team, or club.
Ease of Use and Capability of the System
One of the aspects that set apart Splash from other templates is the full-color illustration of the team and players management module. For every player in your team, you are able to create an elaborate profile that will include his picture as well as a short description of what line of play he fills. You can also create a database for upcoming and previously played matches, as well as provide full league history through statistics and pages for particular teams. In this case, fans will always be up to date with what is going on, what happened and what is going to happen.
Integration of Other Multimedia Content to the Website
Splash also supports audio and video embeds other than text which are useful in capturing the best moments of your team in videos. Where audio feedback is used, you can also embed interviews, commentaries and news updates for wider encapsulation of the information being presented. All these features go a long way in enhancing your sports’ content and getting your fans fully immersed in the action.
Support for Key Plugins
In addition to this, it is very well designed in a way that is compatible to SportsPress, the most prominent sports club management plugin for WordPress. With SportsPress, you can easily take care of fixtures, results, league tables and players ranking. It only relates to Splash that it is user friendly with WooCommerce; hence establishing an e-store to sell the team’s wears is very easy. Also, it integrates perfectly with MailChimp and Contact Form 7 which let you manage email marketing and contact forms.
Easy Customization and Responsive Design
The Splash theme is created with WPBakery Page Builder and that allows both backend and frontend editing of the theme. This results in a very adaptable as well as user-friendly theme. The responsive framework allows the correct display of the website irrespective to the screens used. There are further refinements to the site through the WordPress Customizer, which helps you to change the site as per your landscape or your team’s identity.
Additional Bells and Whistles
Splash comes with a stack of extra elements that include an animated countdown clock, a module alive with fundraising, an Instagram widget, a breaking news ticker, and over 25 custom shortcodes. The theme is also translation ready, SEO optimized and well documented with a plethora of tutorial videos helping you to get started with the template. There are constant updates and skilled help whenever you need it day or night.
In Conclusion
Should the aim of developing the site be a multimedia and user friendly, as well as easy to maintain and organize sports related web site, Terrain is the best solution. With a very wide range of features, it is easy to customize and integrate with the required plugins, which proves to be a great selection for sports family leagues or clubs.
I’m reviewing this theme for several reasons. The level of support is excellent, and my two minor issues were resolved in the initial reply. The installation was quick and painless if you follow the step-by-step process they provide. Everything you need to customize the theme is in the documentation and the integration with SportPress is superb. If you need a sports theme, don’t hesitate to purchase – excellent service all round.
Fantastic customer support and easy communication. Very eager to help me get the website working as desired.
Good template. Slow performance due to many customizations that are not natural for the WP structure. Works fine with minor bugs.
I purchased this theme and immediately ran into major problems trying to run it with Sportspress. On the player page, I tried using the Player Media Gallery to add images. It wouldn’t work. I opened a support ticket and they said: “We’ve detected some conflicts with the player Media Gallery option. We have transferred the case to our developer to fix it. The issue will be fixed in the theme’s upcoming update.” The latest update recently came out and the issue still isn’t fixed. Then, with the sponsors plugin from Sportspress, when you click on a sponsor, it goes to a page that is blank – it doesn’t display the content. I was told, “We determined some conflicts in the theme. I’ve reported this issue to our dev team, and the needed fix will be included in the upcoming theme update. Unfortunately, we cannot provide an exact date of release, please kindly wait.” Since these are two major issues, I asked if my support period could be extended to determine if the theme would work for my non-profit organization and was told no. Essentially, I wasted the money on this theme and have to begin looking for a new theme that actually works with major components of Sportspress. The support was fairly timely, with first responses coming in 3-6 days. However, I have no faith that what needs to be fixed will be fixed after my first report about the Player Media Galleries. I’d steer clear as this theme has a lot of major bugs.
Support could be a bit quicker. Support helped with a minor issue but overall really happy so far.
Another update comes and goes this week and they still haven’t fixed product price options in Woocommerce despite the fact I flagged it with them 6 MONTHS AGO. Avoid this theme if you want Woocommerce integration as it simply doesn’t work and they should remove any reference to it being compatible with Woocommerce.
The theme is brilliant and has outstanding design tools and effects. Also, the tools are so many and you have many choices for the design.
Customer support is always the deciding factor for me when considering to purchase a theme or plugin. I’m really pleased with the support. They are quick to respond and very helpful. Thanks!
An excellent template with a range of customization options. What sets this offering apart is the excellent support. On the occasions I have needed a helping hand, the developers have responded very quickly and the issue was resolved speedily.
Highly recommended.
The theme is amazing and has some work to customize due to the many features it includes. After designing a site with this theme, I find it has good design ideas, especially if you follow the demo designs. However, layout options are lacking for more customization compared to other premium themes. For example, you cannot change the color, size, or placement of the icon in Page Builder, and icon lists do not show the actual icon. There are also built-in margin/padding settings that can interrupt div placements. It is sometimes hard to make changes on the theme or theme demos. This theme is great if you want to copy the demo site layouts, but it has a long way to go in customization. Hopefully, we see these additions in future updates.
Very disappointed with the theme and the support as well. Not only diverse bugs, but in the end it even seems not possible to use this theme because of problems when trying to migrate the finished website from the preview to the final domain, although both are on the same server. We bought and also extended the support with StyleMixThemes, but the support delivers no support that deserves this name. The last answer I got yesterday was a 100% copy-paste answer which I already got from StyleMixThemes support 4 weeks before.
Little to no customization available. The demos look nice, but I was hoping for more flexibility with what I could do with different elements. Disappointing for how expensive the theme is.
This is a mess. Read the reviews, NOT the ratings. There is no way those are people who are really using this template. Support takes 7 days or more to reply and they just blame Sportspress or you. This is a garbage theme with little customization outside of Sportspress. You can’t change colors, text, elements, etc. WPBakery support even craps on this template saying they get complaints about it as well.
Great support, they were very quick to respond and were very helpful to me.
