a theme that says it works on all mobile devices
the theme works on free oxwall core
as the theme and core are website scripts they have to abide by internet best practices
and both the theme and core has to work as stated in the theme descriptions
Consumer guarantees for goods or services cannot be altered or waived by sellers or consumers. Any term in a contract which tries to limit or exclude consumers’ rights under the consumer guarantees will be void. This means that the business cannot rely on it to avoid providing consumers with a remedy. That is, contracting out of the guarantees is not permitted.
Further, if a business attempts to restrict or limit consumers’ rights under the guarantees, it is likely to also breach the provisions on misleading or deceptive conduct and false or misleading claims.
Example: A computer repairer offers a computer repair service. When customers engage with the repairer, they are required to sign a form which contains the terms and conditions that stipulate that any damage caused by the repair would not be the responsibility of the repairer. This is not allowed under the ACL.
Be very careful about what you say to consumers about their refund rights. This includes the wording of any signs, advertisements or any other documents. Signs that state ‘no refunds’ are unlawful, because they imply it is not possible for consumers to get a refund under any circumstance – even when there is a major problem with a product. For the same reason, the following signs are also unlawful:
However, signs that state ‘no refunds will be given if you have simply changed your mind’ are acceptable.
Real case study: The Federal Court ordered that a manufacturer and retailer of computer hardware pay a $3 million civil pecuniary penalty for making false or misleading representations to consumers and retailers regarding consumer guarantee rights, including that
The Australian Consumer Law applies to any business providing goods or services within Australia,” explained ACCC Chairman Rod Sims. “It may be an American based company with no physical presence in Australia, but it is carrying on business in Australia by selling to Australian consumers, who are protected by the Australian Consumer Law.
“It is a breach of the Australian Consumer Law for businesses to state that they do not give refunds under any circumstances, including for gifts and during sales. Under the Australian Consumer Law, consumers can insist on a refund or replacement at their option if a product has a major fault.
“The consumer guarantees provided under the Australian Consumer Law cannot be excluded, restricted or modified.”
consumer laws state you have an obligation to fix them
consumer laws state if you do not fix them then i am entitled to a refund

All problems has been reported before, team knows about that. Making drama does not speed up the devs work. We should be patient, oxwall is still in development and it is a great project.There would be a lot less drama if the issues were addressed when they were found.
There would also be a lot less drama if the Oxwall team would be more open minded about solving problems and learn to work with their community instead of against it.
Without members reporting the issues and pushing them to be addressed things won't get done. And those things that are, tend to have some tunnel vision and obvious fixes before implementing new features/updates will be overlooked (hence the reason this 'drama' was started).

I find also the majority of Tammy's posts in this thread unprofessional, unnecessarily accusatory, and wholly negative and toxic to the culture and well being of this open-source community, irregardless of the causes Tammy upholds or whether I agree with them. I'm tired of the drama and want no part in it. Tammy, do not randomly PM me an invitation to your posts again.

Oxwall can make a good cms if they want to. They make a CMS that does not work right so that you can HIRE THEM TO FIX IT.
Check out oxwall ads on their own site for programmers to fix things. “Premium SUPPORT” When you are a newbie you are dumb and you can't program you think “hey this is great”. They PURPOSELY MAKE IT SO IT WON'T WORK ON MOBILE. Can you imagine not being able to send messages on a mobile phone? They added a mobile version and it DOES NOT WORK TO SEND MESSAGES.
You will spend your life buying plugins that don’t work with each other, don't work at all, wont be visible on mobile, and buying crap themes that don’t work with the plugins and reading this forums which always amount to people never getting problems solved.
By the time you get it done by hiring them and paying for plugins and hiring other developers to fix things and having problems with their lovely updates that make things even worse than they were before, you might as well hire a programming team! They get you hooked in and then when you have a community, they know you don’t want to lose all that work so they know you are desperate.
Why sell software for $600 or $2000 when they can give it away for free, pre broken, then as you start to realize all the things you need, they will charge you for it.
Making very bad FREE CMS and then CHARGING people to fix it. Why not just make it NICE and GOOD in the first place and then sell it at a nice price and make people happy?
You know why? Because you will end up spending HUNDREDS on plugins, THOUSANDS IN FEES FIXING THINGS THAT ARE PRE BROKEN, THOUSANDS MORE ON SERVER FEES ( that they will happen to help host, and MILLIONS in programming by the time you are done.
Now few weeks ago Bryan posted a fix for the url rewrite problem
I have seen screen shots of where someone had asked a oxwall team member about
And the reply was for a few hundred dollars I can make you a plugin with that fix
Now my solicitor reply to me after looking all the proof of this and many other things was that this will not be a civil law suit but a criminal law suit
So oxwall I double dare you to ban me from here
I double dare you to say u won't fix the problems and start abiding by the law
If not I triple dare you to refuse me a refund again
