Have a question about the Market theme? Don’t worry - you are not alone. This F.A.Q. page is for commonly asked questions about the theme and different licenses. As new questions are asked they will be added to this page, so check back frequently if you think a new one has popped up.

Q: Can I customize the theme?
A: Yes! No matter what license you go with, you can customize the theme as much as you like. Either edit the css or template files (or both) to get the design to be exactly how you would like it to be. So long as you keep the Wordpress related php in tact, the theme should not break (although if you break it that’s your fault - you’ll have to re-download and start over .) With the Standard License, all your customizations can only be used for your own needs on your own sites. With a Developers License you can customize the theme and build upon it to meet the needs of your clients.

Q: What License Should I Get?
A: That all depends. With the Market theme, there are two licenses available - one called standard and one called developers. The standard license is the most common option. This license is for those who just want to use the theme on their own site or sites, doing their own customizations for their own uses. With a developer license, you can utilize the code in the theme to your own needs - be it for client work or big projects (for example, a auction style marketplace with a membership fee for users to post items). Look at it like this - if your shop is only going to be making money through the items you sell, your best bet is a standard license. If you will be customizing the theme and selling it to a client or using it in a premium service project, you need the developer license. If you still are unsure, be sure to check out the license options page.

Q: Can I resell the theme?
A: No! At first I thought this was okay, but after much consideration I decided that reselling the theme would not be the best idea. Your license purchase is for yourself and that is it. As a developer, you can customize the theme and make profits off it as a customized template for clients, but you may not sell it as is no matter what license you have.

Q: Do you offer support?
A: Yes and No. Support is not guaranteed because I simply do not have time for it, but a support forum is available for you to ask questions in which I will do my best to answer in a timely matter. Many times the questions asked are simple ones that are answered in the readme or directions included in your download - you may have just skipped over it - so just check again!

Q: My download isn’t working. What the hell is the problem?
A: This happens when you try to access a download and then do it again a short time later. The download links expire after a short period of time to prevent random linking to the files. Usually a hard refresh (CTRL+F5) on the “Download Item” page does the trick and gets the download to work. If you are still having issues use the support forums.

Q: Are Refunds Available?
A: No. All purchases are final, so be sure you understand what you are buying. There are plenty of descriptions all over the place, so you should have a clue as to what you are getting.

Q: What are the requirements for the theme?
A: Market and Mrkt2 along with the Market Lite Plugin work with Wordpress version 2.0+, including Wordpress 2.5. All you need is GD on your server. Most servers have this. Instructions on how to check if your server has GD on it or not are available here. Please be aware that refunds will not be issued, as this is pointed out on the buy it page along with other pages, so you should be fully aware of this requirement!
