What Customers are saying about Options
I have purchased 15 different themes, this is by far the best!
Good Morning, Curt, let me first start off by praising you for your extremely amazing options theme, I have used wordpress themes from themeforest for around 3 years now, I have to say this is by far the most user-friendly and very extensive theme I’ve ever come across, congratulations on all your hard work and efforts. Most themes that are good in design, build and functionality always lack in support content, but you have really gone out of your way to develop some great tutorials. Really pleased with the purchase!
Options theme is very appropriately named and hard to believe the title hasn’t been used before! CurtyCurt managed to somehow throw in the kitchen sink while keeping the admin panel simple to use. Some themes workflow just don’t make sense to me but yours is very intuitive. Themes like yours and the support you’ve already given keeps me buying even if I don’t need the theme yet! Adding you to my “buy without looking” list of authors Wishing you much success!
Very impressive theme, really ! By the simplicity of the customization and the choice of the graphicals elements to do it.
Ok..I’ve been building WP sites for years and I’ve never seen a theme this good. Excellent design and very comprehensive. It’s like working on a Mac…very intuitive. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next. Thanks for the top notch support too. You are definitely the most responsive developer on Theme Forest. Keep up the good work.
Such a great theme with plenty features, that’s how themes should be rollin’ out from authors dashboard!
CurtyCurt, as so many have already said before me WOW ! Thanks for the quick response and info. Best of luck with sales and thanks again for all the hard work that went into this project.
I have been dealing with a lot of WordPress themes in the last 3 years and I have never seen as flexible and well-built theme! It’s impressive – a new standard as I see it.
Beautiful layout, good documentation, easy to operate with enormous opportunities for your own profile! Great – looking forward to your next work!

6 Awesome Sliders w/ an Easy SlideShow Creator
ADD UNLIMITED UNIQUE SLIDERS THROUGHOUT YOUR PAGES in the featured area, body content, sidebars, or footer. Many themes are setup with universal settings for your sliders, so that each slider has to have the same dimensions and effects. Not with OPTIONS ! We have built an EASY SLIDE CREATOR so each slideshow you create has it’s own unique settings! Eg. You can create a PieceMaker 2 slider that is 920×320 on one page, and have another PieceMaker 2 slider that is 150×100 in your sidebar! We also have built in 17 Amazing Modern Web Shadows, so each slideshow you create you have the option to add one of 17 shadows. Shadows also automatically resize to fit the width and height you have set for your slideshow.
Nivo Slider
31 Unique Settings for each Nivo Slideshow you create! Add them to the featured area of any page, the content, sidebar area, or even the footer! We added FIFTY -SEVEN Nivo Sliders to this page so you can get an idea of all the OPTIONS you really have with this Premium WordPress Theme!
Nivo Slider w/ Thumbnails
The Nivo with thumbs slider has all of the options as listed above under the Nivo Slider, but with the added bonus of using thumbnails instead of bullets. We have incorporated TimThumb to automatically resize and create your thumbs, so you and your clients aren’t spending hours in Photoshop creating thumbnails. You can set the width and height for your thumbs in your slider settings, and even control the padding and placement of your thumbs.
Anything Slider
We are using the latest version (AnythingSlider v1.7.11) w/ the new Anything Video Controller. This new version of the Anything Slider is much more video friendly than previous versions. It now will pause and resume video playback for YouTube videos and Vimeo Videos. We have also added amazing functionality to the Easy Slide Creator so all you have to do is paste in your vimeo or youtube video id, and you slide is created automatically. SEE HOW EASY IT IS HERE .
Accordion Slider
The Accordion Slider comes packed with 15 unique slider settings, and 17 shadow options for each slider you create. Set your slider’s width, height, max expanded width, caption bg color, caption bg opacity, tags to use for headline text and description text, and many more…
PieceMaker 1 3D Slider
The PieceMaker 1 3D slider comes packed with 19+ settings for each slider. You can add PieceMaker 1 Sliders to the featured area of your pages, content area, or even your sidebars. Every XML Option that comes with the PieceMaker 1 slider has been integrated into the slide settings!
PieceMaker 2 3D Slider
The PieceMaker 2 3D Slider was a bear to integrate. It comes with over 60 settings per slider! Now don’t be afraid we have set the common defaults for each setting, so you will more than likely only need to change 2 or 3 settings, but if you really want to dig in and customize the look and feel you have 60 plus OPTIONS ! Piecmaker 2 also supports .swf slides and video slides, and the Easy Slide Creator let’s you upload your swfs and videos from the slider settings!
Robust Admin Panel with over 375+ Options
Customize everything from your user-friendly admin panel. No more digging through 3000 lines of CSS trying to figure how to change tiling background images or twitter icons.

OPTIONS v1.3 11/02/2011
Version 1.3 is available for download from ThemeForest. Just login and go to your downloads to grab the newest version. Changes include some small bug fixes, and we added a shortcode for horizontal and vertical tabs as many had requested. We also heavily reduced the themes dependency on timthumb. We created an option in the Nivo Thumb Slider Settings where you can enable timthumb if your server configuration supports it and you want to use it. We also added a thumb url upload for the Nivo Thumb Slider so that you can manullay upload your own thumbs if you do not wish to use timthumb. We also added a setting to the Blog Settings to enable/disable timthumb, the only reason you would need to use timthumb to resize your post images, is if you installed Options after you created all of your posts and set their featured images. If you created your blog posts and attached your featured images after you installed the Options theme, there is no reason to enable timthumb to resize your featured images as wordpress has already done so. The only portion of the template that is still timthumb dependant is the portfolio shortcodes. So if you are wanting to use the portfolio module you will need to be using a server that supports timthumb and set the appropriate file permissions as outlined in the Changing Permissions video in the Help & Site Credits folder.

Fixed Contact Form in html version
Fixed Bug in Portfolio Module
