I know development is costly, therefore I have committed myself to donating financially a couple times each year. I hope I can inspire others to support this project as well. It really is worth it.
But i can not understand why onlu the menu is responsive.
why not the complete theme?
why oxwall need for mobile a seperate system? it is 2015.
i think when oxwall make this theme responsive it will get a lot of fans, and a bigger community.
With Wordpress, themes and plugins are FAR MORE compatible with each other. But Oxwall is not Wordpress. Oxwall doesn't have a fraction of the development funding Wordpress has.
But I do agree that at some point soon, some Oxwall development for MUCH better inter-compatibility between themes and plugins needs to be addressed.
As it stands now, all risk is on the buyer of the plugin or theme. If you buy a plugin that doesn't work with your theme, you end up having to either beg and plead for a refund or give access to yet another person to your admin and ftp and server....etc. so they can try to fix. It's quite a pain in the ass. But I have experienced that just getting a damn refund is like trying to pull a tree out of the ground with your bare hands.
I would estimate that I have about $200 to $300 worth of plugins I can't use with each other or with my theme.
I would much rather have donated that money to Oxwall development. It would have gone to much better use. And there is the key. Oxwall development is limited by funding.
I have my oxwall site pretty much where I want it. It runs great, has everything it needs, and it's even making a bit of money for me.
But I want to see Oxwall continue to get better and better. It's now time to give back. I would suggest that you don't spend money on plugins that you're not sure will work, and take that money and donate to Oxwall Development, with feedback about better inter-compatibility standards between core, plugins, and themes.
The $200 to $300 of wasted money on plugins would be better spent funding Oxwall core development. I'm done buying plugins. (sorry third party devs). My money is now going to Oxwall core development.
