for Customer Support

for Design Quality

Buddypress BEST Theme for me!!! Goooood design quality and so many feature. This theme make interesting imagination and idea for me

for Flexibility

It looks amazing and is packed full of features as you will see in the demo BUT there is almost zero customizability. It doesn't really work with other plugins and is super-hard to edit in terms of code as it is layers-upon-layers. If all you want is what you see in the demo then this is great, I couldn't end up using the theme as it needed changes to get to where I wanted which just wasn't possible. I would recommend this if you aren't going to change it but then that's not very WordPress'y

for Customer Support

Through customer support, I could have my questions answered, and report bugs that were fixed right away.
But honestly, everything is fantastic! Design Quality, Feature Availability, Documentation, not to mention the Code itself, it's so beautiful!
I'm very happy with my purchase, and I just wish I could make all the third-party plugins I use have the same code structure for better customization
I hope you keep adding support to more plugins in the future!

for Design Quality

Apart from a few issues that I don't think should be in a final product such as word-break on newsfeed, padding on the headers and limited options for the login/registration. It says you can customize the login and registration page but there's only options for Login page unless you dig into the theme files. Also some issues are harder to fix due to how the theme was built. Other than that, it's a great theme and hope these issues are addressed in the future.

for Feature Availability

I purchased multiple WordPress themes and plugins back in the day, for different projects. I can tell that this is by far the best one in terms of Quality and Features.

The badges, credits, quests, and ranks system are amazing! Not to mention that there are no bugs. My website has been live for almost a week now and I haven't seen any bugs. There is still room for improvement though. I think adding a widget space at the bottom of the forum would be nice, that way we can see who's online in the forum. Also, adding a normal text editor in the forum would be an upgrade as not everyone knows HTML. Adding a reaction system in the forum would also be nice, so people can like forum posts and stuff.

One question I have is how do I allow guest posting in the blog without any external plugin?

Also, if you need a video showing the features of the theme, I got you guys covered. It will help me in promoting my website and will help you in showing the world a live version of the theme. Send me a message if you're interested.

Well done guys! Keep it up! :)

for Feature Availability

Overall rating: One of the eye-Catching detailed themed forum plugins to use by far, user friendly, easy to use theme for your website as I've decided to use for my website (inkmarkings.com)

Request feature: One thing I would really love for this theme to add and I would be happy to pay extra for the feature but the feature I would like to see is a "shoutbox" feature where users can join into the shoutbox at any time. Something like this: https://i.imgur.com/HbjMEG2.png

Just want to say thank you for your hard work putting this theme together no other theme out there I've seen so complex and interesting with so many admin/user options to choose from.

Author response

for Feature Availability

It doesnt support a lot of plugins and support documentation is very thin...

Author response

Hi, regarding plugin support, please keep in mind that due to the really custom nature of the design (that has things like a custom slider with icon tabs in the profile pages instead of the classic BP row of links in order to make it look different than the average BP theme) plugins that may work in a vanilla theme, may require some code customization in order to integrate them. You can find a list of theme compatible plugins / features before buying the theme here: https://odindesignthemes.com/vikinger-theme-landing/#plugins
Besides, this is clearly mentioned in the first banner of the item's description with red alert symbols and in bold that says "please ask us about demo content, plugins included, integrations and compatibility before buying".

Regarding documentation, we have an extensive one, not thin by any means, even Envato rated the theme as well documented (as seen above the item's page) not only we have an online documentation, but also FAQs, guides, shortcodes, troubleshooting and even 43 video guides!
