I’ve bought a package from Think Up Themes that includes this theme. Every TUT theme is very complicated to use. Some options are dependent of some other that is not logically arranged. You can’t do much to change default look and make what you need, and even simple things like fonts, colors and menus are painful or impossible to set up as you like. Also, themes ARE NOT yours forever, as they stated on their web site, because when subscription expires, you can’t install your key on new web sites. Waste of money.

We bought the complete pack of available themes cause we have more sites.
Imediately we had a problem of sharp slowdown of the setting menu of every website and we contacted the support.
They replied it is a problem of ours and to check how to install a theme.
We uninstalled the themes using then others for free and the setting menus began to work again properly, so, due to this result without their support, we asked for a refund: NEVER REPLIED DESPITE OUR MANY MESSAGGES !!!
Be patient: you will have the right way how to spend the money we paid you.
If it were the possibilty to evaluate -100, we did.
Enjoy you, guys !!

I used this theme to build my first WordPress website. The theme looks great and is easy to customise, there area lot of features that made building my first site 10 times easier.
I have contacted support a few times and they have been helpful.
The only thing I didnt like with the theme that was fixed with a plugin (Stop Generating Unnecessary Thumbnails) is the amount of thumbnails being generated.
WordPeress + WooCommerce + Theme = 31 different images sizes being generated.

I paid for the Pro version and incurred in an issue with expired key error.
Opened two different support tickets and didn’t get a meaningful response in two months.
I highly regret to have built an entire website relying on this theme.

Don’t buy this theme if you expect any support. I emailed them, they couldn’t even tell me what php file the entry-footer meta for homepage blog display was so I could install a plugin feature to that area.
The plugin was for POST VIEW COUNT display. Right, this theme doesn’t even display post view counts…wtf?
So I provided them with the short 1 line of PHP code the plugin supplied me. I emailed support, asking what php file is the entry-footer meta in? They told me to ask the plugin provider LOL! As if plugin provider would know Alante theme file structure…! Too bad I’m a noob, took me 3 hours to figure out on my own, after waiting all day for support to tell me to screw off.
You can see they don’t answer anything in the wordpress support forums. Don’t expect email to be any better if you buy PRO. They can’t answer most simple questions.
There are 100 themes that do basically same exact thing as these themes. The ones with good support are popular and rated highly.
Notice alante has like 15 versions? All almost exactly the same! They just flood the same crap to try and get customers by SPAMMING basically.
Then they have a bunch of other themes with different names and again, basically the same exact thing!

I agree with the previous reviewer that this is an elegant theme. The design is so clean but so beautiful. And with the Pro version, just about everything can be customized.
After trying many WordPress themes, I’ve finally found one I love.

Awesome theme and it is very powerful.
If you are looking for a simple theme where you can slam dunk a generic WordPress blog, this is not for you but if you want your site to stand tall and are willing to put forth a little effort then look no farther. This is the theme you are looking for.
Tremendous support on their site and there are even videos showing how to use the features.
I will admit that when I first installed this I thought “OMG what have I gotten myself into.” Then I watched one four minute video on their site about the page builder feature and it all made sense. They could easily charge twice what they are asking.
Here’s a little tip, load the demo content, tinker with it for a while, delete it and then build your own site. https://www.pencilsociety.us

Nothing with this template is at it seems. Appearance would be even pretty good for a true wp beginner, but digging deep in the customization of this theme you’re going to find more and more flaws. First of all the free theme offers really poor customization controls, unless you want to deal with a lot of CSS you will not have a chance to improve it. But this is pretty normal for a free theme. So, trying to complete a fast project, I decided to buy Pro Version and use it to make it faster. But that’s were all the problems started: support is incredibly slow (they reply not earlier than 12 hours, and usually they are posting some links from youtube that refers to CSS customization), documentation is absolutely incomplete, customization controls are second-rated, giving you the opportunity to customize with UI only general setting. No page title customization unless you want to dig in the CSS customization. Portfolio items have a fixed layout that you will need to edit with CSS manually. I could write more and more about limitations taht you will find using this template but I prefer to stop. If you want a multilanguage template I strongly advise against choosing this awkward theme. If you will buy, probably you will regret it.

It’s clean and simple. If you don’t have experience at all with WordPress, then this theme is for you.
This is my first review for any wordpress theme and I just love it :)….
