Really not a great theme. Not very customization friendly. For example you can't put a "page" on the homepage. This kind of kills quite a few things I wanted to do like add a questionnaire form. Not only that they limit how many of each block you can put on the front page. Kind of annoyed by it since I have worked with quite a few themes, this one is too stiff. Would not recommend. $180 wasted.
Amazing customer service and support. The team at pixel union has been most generous to me in helping make minor tweaks to the site. As I am not savvy with anything to do with code, I was a bit daunted about customizing anything, but the team made it easy. Perfect theme and layout for what I was looking for (www.purebonebroth.co)
This theme looks great and has simple yet really effective components which make you realise that 'less can be more' and the more you can put up front to customers on the same page now is so much better than them having to pop 'inside' to a multitude of different pages. the customer service is fantastic, and small changes can be made to help get it how you want it. highly recommend.
There is a huge problem with this theme. You have no control over the text for the first page sliders in terms of changing the font size, colour an type. It is only one set and coded type for ANY and ALL slides you might want to use. The text on the first page banners are also not mobile friendly, they do not show on the slide and instead they show under the slide and it looks very unattractive
Awesome customer service and a great theme. We had an issue with our code that stumped us. Calvin jumped in and solved it without hesitation. Thanks guys!
We decided to use this theme because of the customization options, but knew we would have to dig into the code to get what we wanted. The support from Pixel Union has been top notch. They've been very quick with response time and have worked hard (and fielded tons of questions) in order to help us get our site how we want it. I would highly recommend you try this theme out!
Customer service was great in trying to help us get our full-width-feature working as advertised, but after 1.5 weeks of back and forth, we ended up with a F-W-F which needed the creators intervention just to edit. So we walked away from the $190 and left Shopify for Wix, and accomplished everything in a few hours. Should have tested this theme more before purchasing. No refunds.
More customisable than any other Shopify theme I've used. Great support too!
StartUp is our second theme from PU and they get two big thumbs ups from all of us here at 58 REPUBLIC. StartUp is really robust with tons of built-in options to get a site up fast – and looking good. We’ve only started to tap the potential of it! The support from Calvin and team is always fast. We’re so grateful, we donated one of our best prints to their office in BC!
Love, Love, Love the theme. It was easy to implement and packed full of features you just don't find in other themes.
