Recurring events templates and compatibility (cont'd) (2)

Hello, I am a photographer and need to find out if Event Espresso will be compatible with a creative template I found. It is here:

http://themeforest.net/item/contrast/68089?ref=soland1234

This technology (is it html5?) is such a departure from what I’ve seen with WordPress sites in the past that I’m stumped. Perhaps you can take a look and see.

Thanks!

Hello Jennifer,

EE should have no problem with HTML 5 themes. We have had some issues with Themeforest themes in general, especially with javascript not being loaded correctly, or the p tags being formatted incorrectly.

Not all Themeforest themes are like this, but it is difficult to say whether this one will have issues just from the demo.

Thanks! I suppose I should write and ask them. 🙂

Okay, he says this: “If EventEspresso loads some content with AJAX into the front end, then I don’t recommend my template.”

Does EventEspresso have AJAX in the front end? I have no idea what that means.

Hi Jennifer,

Event Espresso does use AJAX on the front-end for the Multi Event Registration features.

Only for that plugin? I won’t need that one.

I think this is the right template for me if that’s the case!

I would be very cautious with a template that loads content using AJAX. I’ve seen a few of these that do not work with Event Espresso. In one case the customer purchased a theme that loaded up the content with AJAX and this had to be disabled so the registration process would work.

Okay, so on the page that explained how to download and install EventEspresso, there was a list of template companies you guys like.

MOJO Themes
WooThemes
PageLines
StudioPress

You list them probably not because you think all their templates will work, right?

Hi,

Generally that is the case though we do not test them with every iteration, they are just ones that many/any issues regarding. One customer recently advised on a forum post that MOJO themes don’t work well but we havent confirmed this.
