WP Remix is the second theme to join the Wpdesigner’s marketplace and the first to get approved for a full feature and review.
(This is a sponsored review. However, this theme had to go through inspection first.)
Unlike several premium themes already in the market, WP Remix is easy to set up by novice users. However, packaged with well over 20 layout variations, it’s safe to say Bhavesh made WP Remix for the developers to remix until their hearts’ content.

While it’s easy for novice users to set up, it isn’t so easy for the same group to realize the potential of WP Remix. Visit the WP Remix home page for several examples of remixes or skins of this theme.
Speaking of layout variations and the potential this theme gives you, below are some examples of the layout variations:
Optional Home Page 1
Optional Home Page 2
Gallery Page Template
Events Template
Data Table Template
Contact Form Template (This contact form is included with the theme.)
Pros
- Flexible design.
- Built for modifiation.
- More than 20 pre-made templates for you to play with.
- Nicely structured and commented CSS codes for you to learn the basic structure.
- Good author support.
Design
Design-wise, WP Remix’s minimalistic, but flexible design has some minor spacing, alignment, and cross-browser issues. Mainly, I think the font size for the main column is too small.
If you must use this theme with the default set up and styles then increase the font size.
Code and Structure
In the beginning, there were some invalid XHTML like an unclosed meta tag, which is trivial. Fortunately for the theme author, Bhavesh, he’s been going back and forth with me for several days to grind out the details. I’m happy to say the errors are all fixed.
If there was a Small Potato care and effort test, I’d say Bhavesh passed it. Everything I’ve pointed out, he’s been quick to fix. For example, I mentioned the style.css file was a bit large at 21kb so he cleaned up the codes and brought it down to 19kb. At least, my experience with Bhavesh should give you an idea of what kind of support you’ll get.
Main Con
My main issue with this theme is the use of free icons, images, and photos. Not because they’re free, but because they’re not referenced and I haven’t seen any licenses for them that says they can be distributed commercially. Although Bhavesh does warn you against using them for anything other than simple placeholders for presentation purposes only, it still bugs me that the sources are not referenced.
Just to be on the safe side, take Bhavesh’s warning seriously and replace those icons, images, and photos.
Conclusion
The downfalls are sourceless icons, images, and photos. But, those issues will be solved and you can easily work around them for the moment. Also, the author makes up for it with good support.
WP Remix has lots of potential and it’ll save you time if you find those layout variations useful. For a surprisingly low price, $55, this theme actually gives you more flexing room than most of the premium themes already in the market.
For novice users, I’d recommend this theme if you’re looking for a wide column theme or an e-commerce styled theme (if you combine the Home templates with the Gallery and Product Details templates.)
Ultimately, if you’re a theme author looking for good theme to base your projects on, WP Remix’s huge list of layout variations will come in handy.
