After major initial difficulties in 2013, it is now a pleasure to work with it.
Special thanks for the support after a server crash and installing the latest version. I can only recommend Lens to any photographer or painter.

I have been using Timber for years and they never let me down on any silly questions that I have in the beginning. After years of using and familiarizing the templates, I felt like need a change on my website look since I moved to London from Istanbul. I choose Lens because of its easy usage for my clients. Incredible features like Proof Galleries and customization interface simplicity.

The only downside I can point is the ‘likes’ in galleries. It could be off-putting for some of my clients and myself to show the project with 5 likes. Because people do not visit my site to ‘like’ projects they just browse and leave. Many even don’t realize they can click that like button. It would look way more professional to have an option to remove the “like” button from the gallery.

The second thing could be my bad, with the previous template I have been hacked from the woo-commerce plugin. I would love to see another online selling plugin to have a chance to sell my prints directly from my website.

Pixelgrade is a perfect place to build your website without any headaches. Code is incredibly well done and flexible, customer service is on point and solution-focused.

Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to write this review. You made our day ❤️. As for the likes issue you mentioned, you just need to deactivate the PixLikes plugin and you’re set. Cheers ✌️

I purchased the Lens WordPress theme because of its ease of use, excellent documentation and flexibility. Overall, the theme was very easy for me to customize it and I haven’t experienced any issues using the theme. Of course, if I did – I’m confident in Pixelgrade’s support.

I purchase advertise Ferrari and I get Alfa Romeo which needs to go to the service right after the purchase. This is an honest review after one weak of using Lens theme (Pixelgrad team will ask you to give a review one day after your purchase so don’t do that, wait till you see how the product is working).
Out of the box, on the brand new install of WordPress, social icons are not showing correctly and support needs to step in with the custom code. If you install WooCommerce, your site will become so slow that you cannot use it. If you don’t have really fast and good hosting don’t think about WC and Lens theme together. Masonry gallery have a bug and it won’t be fixed by the Pixelgrade (at least not in near future). It shows a big empty gap at the bottom of the gallery page on some screen resolutions. Support is OK, they are doing their job … and that’s just to talk to you and tell you, well what you can do, what we can do? … we sold you Alfa instead of Ferrari and you pay for it … now you need the find a way to drive it and be happy …
If you want to refund your money you need to contact ThemeForest directly because they will not take care of that.
So my friend, avoid Lens theme if you want to use a woocommerce solution or you want to present your pictures on the website using a masonry layout …

Andrei's response (Pixelgrade team)

Thank you, Vojislav, for being honest. This is, of course, not the type of experience we want to give to our customers and we are sorry if we let you down. As you know, WordPress is in continuous development, so there are times when bugs show up that need to be fixed. We do our best to solve them in a timely manner, but until then, our customers can get easy fixes via email. As for using WooCommerce, as you know, this is a powerful plugin, and running a performant shop does require trustworthy and reliable hosting, something we can control or fix in our product. I’m also sorry for your refund experience on ThemeForest. Unfortunately, they have a strict refund policy, and we have to play by their rules. The good news is that anyone can get Lens from pixelgrade.com and benefit from our 14-days money-back guarantee, no-questions-asked policy.

I have been using the Lens theme since a 2019 re-build of my website. Having spent a great deal of time researching the various options for modern web platforms, e.g. pre-packaged ‘photography’ solutions, to WordPress, and a few other options, I came to realize that Lens theme gave a good deal of flexibility and had most of the features I required; other options seemed to relegate text or assume the only item of importance was a simple gallery, etc.

I have 3 of your themes — Pile, Lens, and Gema. They are all different, amazing, and easy to use.
I have tried other WordPress themes but it is not like Pixelgrade. Their themes are well designed for my needs.
I recommend it to everyone who needs to build a website, with their unique products and good service.

I should probably start with “I’m a WordPress newbie!”
Lens is a great looking theme and after I’d got my head around it with help from the Pixelgrade team, I was able to get exactly what I wanted.
The support I received surpassed expectations. Alin was especially helpful and I’m now looking to add to my website.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pixelgrade to friends and colleagues.

I should confess, too, that your review surpassed expectations, too. 😄
Thanks, Scott! You rock! 💪

  • What will I need to use this theme?

    You will need your own domain and a web hosting with the current WordPress version installed. To make things easier for you, we recommend the Flywheel hosting company.

  • Can I customize the themes?

    Yes, all of our themes are licensed under GPL (like Word­Press itself), so you can cus­tomize them with no restric­tions. Feel free to adapt it to your own writing or business needs!

  • Do I need to purchase any plugins?

    This theme does not need premium plugins to configure it as showcased in the demo. Some plugins might require premium licenses for advanced features but that’s not a requirement.

  • Does this theme use a page builder?

    You should be able to run any page builder of your choice (Elementor, Divi, Visual Composer or others) with no problem. All this said we didn't use one when creating this theme.

  • Can I use the themes for client work?

    If it’s just one client, sure. If you’re a freelancer or a small agency that wants to create multiple websites for clients, you can pick the Themes Bundle plan and have unlimited access to all of our themes to build as many websites that you want.

  • What is your refund policy?

    Although we don’t think you’ll ever want a refund, our goal is always to be fair and reasonable. The refund policy is not any different: we offer a 14–days no‐risk money back guarantee on all of our themes. No questions asked!
