Although the theme has a large collection of demo websites that look good, working with this theme is a nightmare.
Starting with the fact that the only way to customize the theme (opposed to any other theme I bought) is only through the live customization that also lack the basic options for a multipurpose theme.
The theme doesn't work with revolution slider and it would be an understatement to say that the sliders included with the theme have sufficient options (such as adding a text on top of it).
The theme uses a "Rapid composer" plugin which is probably the worst idea the developers made. Instead of making the editing simpler, it made it unbearable. The editor lacks important elements unlike some other editors and have a very limited visual representation of the page that you will need to get used to or just rip your hair off. If you are desperate enough to go to the classical editor and add elements that the composer does not have or support, you can't go back to the composer as it will just delete your changes.
The customization of a page is done via a variable table at the bottom, so you need the documentation open at all times combined with guessing and testing to get the result you want.
So unless you want your website to look EXACTLY like the demos with a text/image changes and you dont want to waste time on writing hundreds of lines of CSS code and make changes in the theme code, do yourself a favor and don't buy this theme. In my opinion and experience, its the worst theme I encountered so far.

Hi,
Thanks for your honest opinion. We are truly sorry that you haven't consulted our support regarding the issues you have experienced - at least they would point you into right direction.
The sliders included with the statement do have the option of adding a text on top of it. In fact, you can add any other element which the theme contains into the slider item including inner rows and columns.
Anyway, our next theme update will bring support for Bold Builder - https://wordpress.org/plugins/bold-page-builder/ in addition to the current Rapid Composer
Anyway, please feel free to submit a request for a refund here - https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new and we will approve it
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team
