Have you ever been so frustrated trying to get a WordPress theme to do what you want it to that you could kill somebody?

I felt that way several times until I stumbled across the premium WordPress theme called Thesis.

Thesis Design Options

The Thesis theme is unique mainly for two reasons:

1. Easy of Use
2. Awesome Support

Many of the tasks that would normally require PHP programming and/or CSS skills can be taken care of with a click of a mouse. Sometimes you will need to enter some text into a box, but that beats the alternative hands down.

If you are like me, you probably cringe at the thought of paying for a WordPress theme. After all, there are literally thousands of themes which you can easily download for free.

The thing is, even if you become fairly proficient with PHP and CSS as I have, you will inevitably be stumped from time to time in an attempt to make a seemly minor change that you ALMOST get right.

Thesis Options

Often when you write the developer you will get no response. After all, you get what you pay for.

This is where the Thesis community shines for the level of support it brings to the Thesis theme. In addition to the theme developer, Chris Pearson, there are a handful of others in the forum that have written tutorials and made videos to help you solve the most common tasks.

And for the design challenges that aren’t already covered in online tutorials, there are plenty of friendly and highly knowledgeable folks eager to help in the Thesis forum.

Then there is the design of the Thesis theme itself. The beauty of it is that all the changes that you will need to make are in two files, one for CSS and another for PHP functions.

This means that you can easily adapt the design of your blog to meet your particular needs without having to pay someone or wait for them to make small changes to an existing design.

One of the Thesis gurus, Rick Beckman, has created a plugin called OpenHook which makes it even easier to make design changes, since one of the bigger challenges is knowing where to put the code.

The plugin gives you a textbox to plug the code into.

When you buy the Thesis WP theme, you are getting lifetime support and lifetime upgrades. As WordPress adds features, so does Thesis. And each revision of Thesis is subjected to the rigorous scrutiny and testing of a broad and diverse user community so that each new release is rock solid.

Maybe Thesis doesn’t actually save lives, but it does greatly enhance your ability to create a cool web presence for yourself.

Become a proud member of the Thesis community today. While your friends are restling with their theme designs, you can be writing a compelling blog post and enjoying your readers comments.
