I was worry about upgrading to version 2.0, having made a lot of customizations to the previous version. Turns out everything I customized (sizes of portfolio, colors, etc.) is now an option!

The upgrading process was simple, well explained and took me about an hour total. Great job!

Unique Grid Based Design

Originally published in May 2012, this theme was one of the first grid themes on the marketplaces. Version 2.0 adds a soft modern touch to the original design, making it more perfect than ever!

Modern Technologies

Wowway is built upon modern trends such as HTML5 tags, CSS3 transitions and the History API. Well coded and commented, featuring over 2500 lines of carefully crated custom javascript code, clean & semantic data, this theme provides an amazing experience for your users.

100% Responsive

It is totally responsive, meaning that it will look good on all kinds of mobile devices. The sliders have touch events enabled & the entire content is scaling properly down to the smallest size.

Retina Ready

All the images in this theme will look sharp on devices with a high DPI. If you provide large sizes, when a user opens the site in a retina device a cookie will be stored on his device and after the first refresh all images will look really good!

Highly Customizable

The entire look of the theme can be easily changed through the options provided with the Theme Customizer which allows you to edit the theme and preview your changes in real time. You can change colors, fonts & a lot of options in the layout.

Advanced Portfolios

There are two portfolio types: portfolio & gallery. The portfolio type features cool modal window projects, which have the ability to use both videos & pictures and define custom sizes per project. The gallery has a minimalistic design, useful for displaying large images with little or no text content.

Minimal Blog

The blog comes in two design version (one column & two columns), and it’s perfect for displaying news or random thoughts. Each post can have a slider, image or embedded video at the top.

Interactive Map

You can have as many map pages as you want and in each one you can have a certain location, pin image and contact info.

Shortcodes Generator

The theme comes with an awesome shortcode generator which allows you to build up pages as you see here. There are enough elements to get you started in order to create rich pages with awesome content!

SEO friendly

All headings tags are wisely used in the theme, AJAX calls are recorded and every single portfolio page works out of the box, so search engines will know how to crawl and index your website.

Translation Ready (Multilingual)

.po and .mo files are available, making the theme easy to translate into your own language.

11 Layered PSD Files

A lot of PSD files are available in the download. With them, you can easily change layouts and stuff for presenting the perfect website for your clients!

Great Documentations & Support

There is a comprehensive manual available and some quality screencasts which can help you get started with the theme and there is always the support forum backed by professionals caring for your business!

XML Import File Available

The XML import file is available and can be used to download the demo content from the online preview (without the copyrighted images).
