What is wrong with you people? If you keep going like you are I wouldn't blame Robert and his team if they did just disappear and deprive us of their talents. I don't see that many people complaining when you consider how many subscribers there are,just the same few people moaning and bitching about what they want. The majority of us are happy with the content we receive for our subscriptions but I felt it was time to come out in support of Gavick.

All I expect is a new template roughly once a month,any issues I have I prefer to work out for myself,that's the best way to learn. This constant referencing of the other template club is helping nobody,the truth is you wouldn't be a Gavick customer if the other supplier was any good. So they might listen to your gripes but as a subscriber to both clubs in my opinion they lack the talent of the Gavick team.

You can't have it all so take your pick and make your choice,if you want uncreative bland templates but good customer service then you know where to go,if on the other hand you prefer templates crafted by very talented people who are obviously short staffed but trying their best then stick around.

That is life chaps,the creative geniuses are often best left to do just that,create and inspire. Personally I would sooner Robert spent his time doing what he is good at,rather than posting on forums and pandering to the vocal minorities every whim.

That's my thoughts on the subject and I also wanted Robert to know that he does have some happy customers B)

Well there is nothing wrong with me.. don't try to group people because you have no idea of ones perspective. Gavick isn't going anywhere because they're at the top of their game, they've cut cost over the last few years and profits are up. With 17 posts on this forum you wouldn't know that, nor would you even know what the majority of us think. I've been coding for few decades, I belong to damned near every template company there is. People will always say the grass is greener at the other template company if they are not there.. the truth is.... some companies are better at some things and lacking at others.. hens Gavick has the best templates but the customer service is parallel or just above XTC not good....




All I expect is a new template roughly once a month,any issues I have I prefer to work out for myself,that's the best way to learn.

So they might listen to your gripes but as a subscriber to both clubs in my opinion they lack the talent of the Gavick team.


I expect what I pay for and I won't settle.. I expect my templates delivered on the 1st of the month, or any consistent day because I'm in BUSINESS.. When your in business it's nice to have some regularity. The truth is I belong to damned near every template company. Gavick is just ONE template company of many that gives me the ability to offer my clients a variety. This is not a hobby for me bro, nor is it for most of the people complaining. Honestly I don't think you even know what to complain about, that's why your satisfied.



You can't have it all so take your pick and make your choice,if you want uncreative bland templates but good customer service then you know where to go,if on the other hand you prefer templates crafted by very talented people who are obviously short staffed but trying their best then stick around.


You can't have it all if you don't ask for it all. Nothing that has been asked for is anything other than what we paid for, have been promised, or is logical. It's not like I asked Gavick to pay my car note or mortgage. Gavick being short staffed is by choice.. again 17 post you wouldn't know that. Programmers and coders are around the corner lined up to work for Gavick.


That is life chaps,the creative geniuses are often best left to do just that,create and inspire. Personally I would sooner Robert spent his time doing what he is good at,rather than posting on forums and pandering to the vocal minorities every whim.

Obviously you have a Worker Bee mentality. Gavick is best under pressure, all of the GREAT Gavick templates have been produced after a lack luster templates. Gavick (the man) Gavick (the company) have always pull Magic Bunnies out their keesters when they had too, nothing will change on that. They do Postnotes left to their own accords..


That's my thoughts on the subject and I also wanted Robert to know that he does have some happy customers

I'm a artist, a coder, a programmer, a producer, I'm creative, I will never be satisfied with anything.

I have been a member for 3 years now and do not have any problem with support tickets - and the ODD occasion that I require assistance I have always get the feedback mmmm

Maybe the people who complain so much should spend some time understanding the core framework and a little coding tutorials - isshhhhh

All I wanted was to know when we can expect the October template - which has been answered - Thanks Robert.

lol I do 10-20 sites a month, only 3-6 are Gavick sites, I've found 3 errors in the code of TWN2 because I know how to code, I won't even get into the social API code that conflicts with other components, I won't even get started on the conflicts with Moo and 6.1, stack overflows, all these issues are from coding. When you get to a production level and know what your looking for, then come holla at me.

But out of all the templates I use each month the majority of errors come from Gavick templates.. Not because they're bad coders, It's because they are cutting edge and other modules or component makers have not caught up to Gavick. When you have a variety of 200 components and 500 modules to offer your customers you will run into errors. Put JCE media plugin on a Gavick 1.7 template and see what happens, has nothing to do with JCE.

I won't trip with you about the ticket system. if it works for you... so be it.. But I have to reference damned near every Gavick template to fix problems that popped up at times years ago. With a search I could find that in seconds, but with the ticket it can take days.. it don't work for me.

JCE media plugin on a Gavick 1.7 This is not only Gavick. I have found the same on Yootheme templates too. And developing I only develop now on 1.7 as I want to make sure that I don't have to spend to much time migrating clients.

My big problem is I do not like Red shop and prefer either K2 or Virtuemart and cant wait for them to be available for 1.7

good luck

Virtumart has been ready for 1.7 more than a month or 2, K2 for 1.7 has been out for a month. I'm working on a site right now with K2.5.1 it works great and much faster.

Never fails, that template is one of those Magic Bunnies I was speaking about.. The template is simply awesome, from a personal and production perspective. Whomever Gavick has got working with IS now is simply kicking ass with it...


I posted a tweet 5 minutes ago to my customer base and got 7 orders already, I want to moan about TWN2 but now I don't have time AAAWWWWW!!!!! .... yes I do.. Jomsocial is final @ 2.4 I need that Js template for TWN and you might as well get started on the one for this months template too.. and the forum :<>)

I like it. Very clean.

As for the complaints: There wouldn't be half as many complaints if we just had more updates on this forum.

This is the October template. It's not going to be available on Oct. 1, that's fine. How bout the 15th then? No? Okay, what about the 31st? No? Then when? 5 more days? 10 more days? Okay, can you at least tell us what the theme of it will be? No!?!?!

Here are the three things to tell us every month to keep us quiet:
1. What type of template will this be? Ecommerce, Social, News, etc? (PROVIDE SCREENSHOTS)
2. What day will it be available for Preview on demo.gavick?
3. What day will it be available for download?

It is clear now the forum is without a moderator, but the forum doesn't need a moderator to provide ONE update. It takes five minutes to clue us in.

It's hard as hell to give a date a template is going to be released. But once a designed has been commissioned and the company has been committed to that design.. that's same day that we should know...

BUT!!!!! if they did that every template company would be trying to out-due Gavick on their OWN design.. we've all seen it, no names need to be said.. so they can't.

What they can do is be more consistent on release dates.

@Robert - great templateonce again, thank you very much. I hope the recent criticism wasn't taken too personally, it's all aimed at making things better for everyone.

Now my turn for a request - can we have a really nice, clean Hotel-type template with booking/reservation system, comments/reviews etc in place next . . . ?

The pressure will increase if you don't say anything! I've been waiting for it sense the last Jomsocial update going gold... as a matter of fact EVERY template should have a jomsocial and Kanuna (or what ever ya call that forum) template by default.

As a matter of fact.. Lets create a NEW market. 3rd Party Subscription. We have the template plan I would pay for the 3rd party plan that includes those and redshop for each template. I'll take a 10% finders fee thank you

I just want to know if a jomsocial/kunena temp is on the way or i should chose another solution....

I really don't need a specific date just a heads up.

I would also pay for jom/kunana subscription plan if it came to that :-)

Still no sign of this?? Please, on the web you can not miss the forum! Phpbb3 or Kunena are perfect for this template!
