3dcart Designs Responsive Happy New Year

[thecartdesigner]

Well after way too many 3am nights, I am in the final stages of our new 3dcart responsive theme. The new 3dcart responsive template "Revolt" utilizes very little javascript and is a primary html5/css3 base. So the 3dcart Responsive Theme is VERY lightweight.

I do have quite a few adjustments to make yet. But they are all outside of the main build so I am hoping to have a release date soon.

Here is the link to the video demo: 3dcart Designs Responsive Template Demo

And before I forget....... HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!!

Thanks,
Shaun

Looks great! I've always done my own template coding but I might have to make an exception for this.

I'll be the first to say grats. I'm still grinding away with mine here.. going to be a bit before you see mine released :(

[cbsteven]

How well will this behave if javascript is disabled?

[thecartdesigner]

Sorry, should have specified the javascript comment. There is no javascript involved with the responsive functionality. The only javascript is the original 3dcart platform javascript that has always been there already.

I will be posting an updated vid demo tonight with many more pages completed.

Thanks,
Shaun

3dcart Responsive Theme: Revolt, Revision 2

3dcart Designs Responsive Template Revision 2

Looks good. What are the steps to implementing it? Do we just have to upload a new folder through FTP, and then select the template in the admin area?

It would be great to use what you have made as the backbone, but then of course customize the look and feel with the changes I have made.

[thecartdesigner]

It is planning to be a straight upload and activate as any other template. There are some caveats for proper use, but nothing extensive.

There are some caveats for proper use, but nothing extensive.

It would be nice to have a list of these caveats!
Also, I would assume that there needs to be a special way to handle banner images, etc so they would be responsive. A mini tutorial would be very helpful.

Two more things,
Is multi step checkout coming?
&
Is your mini cart compatible with this?

We also use 4-tell, I guess we would need them to make their suggestion boxes responsive.

[thecartdesigner]

Until I have everything done, I won't have a complete list of caveats. It won't be many since I will implement responsive coding for images.

Multi step is in the works and yes I am going to make sure that it is compatible with the mini cart.

Anything outside add on will need to be forced responsive via css or otherwise unless the add on has the option.

Kind of a silly question, but is this a few hundred dollar template or few thousand?

Thanks,

Hey DaveW,

Not a silly question at all.

If I were to charge for the time put into modifying each html page there is no doubt it would be ridiculously expensive.

Luckily, I look at things in a different way. I am going to try and make it so a small mom and pop shop can justify the cost, yet make sure that I don't get killed by my wife for handing things out for too little. (For anyone that has done work with me will understand how close to death I have been via the wife for doing too much extra...lol.)

As for an answer to the question. Still a tad unsure. What I can tell you is that it will be nowhere near $1k.

[DaveW]

Great, thanks. I had no idea of the time involved or your payback goals. I didn't want to get my hopes up if it was going to cost $10k :)

Thanks,

DaveW

Watch for another revision demo either tonight or tomorrow morning. It's starting to get really close to done.
