Answer on the Ashford Facebook page. Your answer will help guide support and dev docs.
Pro, Axis and Aeon each have over 230 different color and font combinations. You can try Ashford for free but custom color and font theme options are ONLY enabled when you buy Pro.
But wait there is more…when you buy Pro, you also get 8 other must have features enabled like: mobile, mega menus and hero types.
Now there is even more…when you buy Pro, it comes bundled with 2 additional premium child themes. Axis and Aeon are included at no extra charge. So you can build over 690 theme combinations for only $49.
And do not forget that Pro gives you unlimited email support PLUS an unlimited site license. So when you buy Pro, you can build 690 different sites (or more) for just $49. No hidden developer fees or usage fees.

Hi Tim,
I am looking for a dependable framework with an exelent support. My question is :
If I purchase Ashford where do I get the support from and by seeing the latest post on facebook – not very active ….are you guys still in business that I can trust???
Thanks – Please advice.
Tried to use your framework and the whole of WordPress was diaabled with this message:
“Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class uagent_info in D:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\ashford\library\ashford_mdetect.php on line 43″
I downloaded and installed in the themes directory and activated “Theme”. Things deteriorated rapidly after that.
Thoughts? would like to see this work. It sounds promising.
The un-designed immovable footer box is a real turn off.
It’s ugly, visually irritating when scrolling, and wastes valuable screen space. For what? To advertise the fact that someone mentioned your framework on a blog post 6 months ago….
It’s time to move it…..
To “Robert Wall” – I first installed the FREE version and ran it with no issues. Then I purchased PRO and still no issues. Check your WP version or perhaps another plugin is causing compatibility issues.
Now if I could only get some response from the author of this product, I would be a “happy customer”. So far, I am getting more and more turned off by the lack of “support” for a purchased product that touts “support” as a reason to buy. All I want are a few questions answered – can’t even get access to the Google Groups!
I feel a bit let down after buying the pro version. Where’s the support? Google groups? And the support documents appear to be extensive at first, but looks rather limited.
Jacob — I’m catching up on all that’s happened this month. I apologize for the lack of support over the last few weeks. Rest assured that I will catch up on support questions and help you with Ashford as much as possible.
Zoltan — I’ve caught up on admitting folks to the Google Group. I apologize for the delay. Ashford directly supported by myself and this March I got behind.
You are correct — and it is removed.
Please try to re-download, there may have been a brief time where the mobile detect code was broken.

I am still in business and the code is well maintained. I just am not always the best marketer. I will make a point to use Facebook more often and Twitter.
