Post update - 25 May - R Bhavesh has finally contacted me and sent me a refund notification. He says the plugin to easily edit the static content was never part of the cost of the theme.
If anyone is able to assist in adding functionality to wpremix theme, making certain content fields in the html templates editable through the post editor, contact R Bhavesh to discuss. He said he’s looking for someone.
There are many fantastic premium wordpress themes available online, and many trustworthy wordpress theme developers who will go the extra mile to make sure you’re happy with their products.
I’ve been eyeing the WPRemix theme for a while and finally worked up the motivation to purchase it. It’s a theme which I promises to deliver a framework for developing wordpress based cms sites.
“One Master Theme,Unlimited Possibilities” it says
the site also has a nice catchy line -
“Unleash The Power of Wordpress blog CMS!” Yeah right.
Imagine my surprise when I realised the endless possibilities of the various templates depends on you having to edit the html manually to insert content. I mean, really, what’s the point then. The many homepage layouts contain static code which cannot be edited through wordpress’ post or paging system and no sidebars.
I was furious, conned. I did a few searches and quickly found many disgruntled buyers who apparently have been trying to contact R. Bhavesh (the genius behind this sneaky scheme) and not managed to get hold of him or a refund.
Remix Editor Plugin
It turns out the vision was to have a remix edit plugin(page does not exist any longer), which never worked so well and was removed from the package, leaving behind a set of static templates. I contacted the developer with no response to date. He’s still selling the theme as if all is well.
You’ve Been Warned!

WPREMIX theme gets a well deserved overhaul
A few weeks ago you may have noticed a very disgruntled post on my blog regarding a theme I purchased. The Theme is called WPremix and since my post a number of developments have taken place. Firstly R. Bhavesh, the theme developer responded to my post and refunded my purchase. We then started a discussion regarding

I had a similar problem/issue when buying his theme and regretted the purchase ever since. I’ve posted many questions, with no answer, no support…nothing. I see that he has launched another site which has an affiliate program..it makes me feel a bit iffy about joining.
Nur I didn’t know about this. I’ve purchased the Revolution developer pack and it’s really worth the money. I had a small question once and the creator emailed within the hour. I’ve had nothing but utter satisfaction.
Sorry for your loss and I hope no one else is conned by that guy.
Same problems. He has actually quickly responded to 2 of my 4 questions. It seems like if he knows the answer he replies, if he doesn’t he goes silent. The odd thing is I asked my questions on his blog, but he won’t post the questions or the answers which might help others….
Odd duck.
I just purchased this yesterday and I love it. He had on the blog that the editor didn’t work and that it was removed and he’s been answering all of my emails in less than 5 minutes.
Personally, I don’t mind the manual editting. My sister (who’s in charge of updating) doesn’t know how to do anything except post so its less of a hassle wondering about if she’s gonna screw something up while I’m away.
I too purchased the WPRemix2 theme about a week ago. I’m convinced this is just a huge scam. This new theme doesn’t work at all, and there is no support. There is a support forum where you can talk to all the other people who purchased the non-functional product. And if you post about the huge backdoor/security problems with functional installations, your post will just get deleted. I’m still waiting for my refund.
I wish I’d seen this before I bought it! I got conned too and PayPal can’t force a refund because it’s a good not a service. He refuses to answer any of my emails. There’s more than one way to recoup the loss though…by sharing. If anybody wants it, download it free here ##### (Download link removed by admin)
