Hey great theme. However, my search bar seems very different from the one in the preview. The submit button is just the default submit button, not red and also there is a ‘search for:’ text before the box which according to the demo shouldn’t be there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words.

I think for all the buzz around Thesis and other similar themes, simplicity is still key. Mainstream is definitely not our most sophisticated and feature-rich theme ever, but it does what it’s aimed to do and the code base is superior to most free theme alternatives. So it’s great to hear that you have found value in using this theme over other more complicated alternatives.

Thanks for this theme, I for one would not mind joining the club is there was ever a version of Mainstream that was a Premium theme, after fumbling with tons of themes and spending a pretty penny here and there ie. Thesis 1.5 Developer and Premium Themes well over $200 I’ve finally settled with Mainstream, not bad guys, I’m glad I cruised over to your site at the right time. I’ve always known about you guys but had not signed up but perhaps in the the near future I’ll become an official member in the mean time, congratulations on a great theme. I look forward to your other upcoming premium and free themes, to see if I finally take the plunge and become an official Woo-er lol.

Hi there,

Thanx for the new free template im actually using it right now on my site, i was using Irresistible before..

Just a question, is it possible to show only the preview(excerpt) of my posts on the homepage?

There’s not much we can do about that, since the themes are GPL and they can be redistributed by whomever has bought the themes.

We’re not overly fussed about that though and we completely rely on all of the honest people that purchase the themes from us. Those copies that are freely available aren’t even updated to the latest version for example. So if someone really wants to use those free, outdated copies, then they’re not the type of person that we want as a user / member anyway.

Hi Adii, yeah I saw you forgot to remove it from your file.

BTW, I am not a theme developer and honestly I am against the premium theme developers going GPL. I have seen a daily increase of blogs offering not one but all of yours/others work for free. As a matter of fact, I just Googled another premium developer and the third result was actually a blog offering 21 of your themes in one click. That hurts. And will be worst because these blogs are starting to rank just one position below than the original site. Imagine someone searching for the term “woothemes” and the second result is a blog offering all of your themes for free. (Just happened when I searched for the other company’s name).

Email me if you want to take a look at the one offering your themes.

Take care and keep up the good work.

Great theme. Unfortunately, pingbacks are not shown below the postings. Is this a bug or an error on my side?

By: Adii Rockstar

Adii Rockstar — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 05:27:06 +0000

Nope, unfortunately that is not supported at the moment.

Nice theme.is there a way just to show the title and description instead of using logo?

That is an oversight on our part and it needs to be removed. The themes and all of the code, CSS & images are indeed GPL.

That’s why it says “Free Personal Blog Theme.” If your going to ask WooThemes for a specific design, how about being willing to pay for it? They’re not your WordPress genies, so please don’t tell them what you expect them to design for you.

See… The thing with freebies is that we like giving them, but when people start making demands, we become less inclined to do freebies…
