The Morning After — not supported?

by Debbie Ridpath Ohi on May 26, 2009

Hm…Love the theme, but the online documentation certainly needs some beefing up and there doesn’t seem to be much online support; I suspect the creator is pretty busy with other lifestuff. I may switch back to Thesis. I like the look of TMA better, but without the support I’m not sure if I’m willing to stick with it. I’ve already paid a developer’s fee for Thesis, and that theme comes with a lot of online support from the developer as well as the online community.

Debbie Ridpath Ohi May 27, 2009 at 1:01 pm: Thanks, Shane — I appreciate the offer. :-) So far, though, it seems to be going ok… (fingers crossed)
Sen May 28, 2009 at 9:14 am: aw.. you can’t give up on tma this quickly. it’s too pretty. i’ve never used wordpress before, but i’m kind of loving it. i’m always checking tma’s discussion board, but it’s hard finding answers to specific answers. if you want, we can email back and forth and try to help each other out! the site i’m developing is at: http://www.ymusicensemble.com
Debbie Ridpath Ohi May 28, 2009 at 10:01 am: Hi Sen! Love your site so far. I agree that it’s sometimes finding answers to specific questions on the discussion board. Sure, we can do the e-mail thing! But I have to worn you that I’m FAR from a CSS expert and am learning as I go along. :-)

My e-mail is inkygirl [at] gmail [dot] com.

Debbie Ridpath Ohi May 31, 2009 at 10:32 am: Love FireBug. Also figured out a bunch of The Morning After stuff. My main concern with that theme, tho, is that it’s going to be a MAJOR hassle if I ever need to upgrade the theme. One advantage of Thesis: upgrades are painless because all the changes are kept in one place. :-)
