    If you check theme’s website, you will see a pro version of this theme with Content Blocks system before Gutenberg.. Yup, Gutenberg became a big nail in theme’s coffin.. and a big roadblock with Paypal closing in my country.

    Years passed and now I see a bloated theme market. What happened here? Where is really “totally free” themes? They look like freemiums rather than free themes. Maybe a totally free bootstrap theme is still necessary? What do you guys think?

  • Unsal,
    I am STILL USING YOUR THEME even now after all the changes in WP, since 2013, it manages to be resilient with every WP update. I’m still running this volunteer site for dogs that suffer serious hematological diseases. I’ve had some problems with older plugins that weren’t supported for a long time that I needed to make it a more robust educational website. bbPress is still absolutely working properly and that is a big source of our forum for owners with sick dogs. We’ve helped save many hundreds of dogs lives. Your color scheme in blue still looks great for a doggie site. The font is fantastic. See Secondchanceaihadogs.com

    I went looking for you last night on the internet, hoping you might resurface and tweek this fantastic theme. Your concept of open source is incredibly important. I can’t tell you how many of my themes I bought through Envato have failed me. The developers load the theme with proprietary plugins that break when they never bothered to upgrade those important development plugins, like WPBakery. I want to rebuild my other sites on this theme. Of course I want to pay for this. If Envato sells me a junky theme for $60 and charges me the same to get professional help every 6 months, what is $120 to have a quality built theme for a site, worth it’s weight in gold. There must be other ways to reimburse you for your work, gift cards?

    Do this for those of us who appreciate the work that volunteers like yourself around the world still provide in the WordPress world. I’d gladly put some freebee advertising on my site to promote you.

    Please do this, those who appreciate a perfectly built WordPress theme will come back to your work.
    My best, Matoca

    Thanks for your input @matoca ??

    I am working on a new theme structure that just works like FirmaSite Theme. This new theme will have possibility to create mobile apps with your WordPress. I believe websites have to change for future. Without mobile app support, just websites cant have a future imho. This is a phasing time sadly. Phasing from websites that just works inside browsers only to mobile apps.

    So in the end, just expect a new theme with FirmaSite’s soul and https://quasar.dev/ modernity.

    I am looking forward to seeing your work! I chose your theme early one because I wanted the site to work on phones and I didn’t see many themes that had that capability. A majority of the owners who needed help with their dogs were in the vet’s office and while waiting they were trying to find information about AIHA on the internet. Even bbPress works on the phone! I liked it because I could get into the dashboard and work with just my phone. So your ideas about mobile app support are exactly what I need.
    My best, Patrice
