Requirements
Please, buy this theme only if you think that the speed of the demo site is acceptable. Forte is a powerful theme, with many features, and many customizations possible. This requires a quite good server. The demo site is hosted on a VPS with other sites together with it : 768 MB of RAM , nothing special, but it’s enough.
The performance of your site will be faster or slower depending on whether you put your custom styles inline or you create a static file (this option is available on the admin panel). Each time you save something on your Forte admin panel a static file is generated with the settings just saved, but only if the CHMOD of this file is set to 777 and if the function file_put_contents() is available on your server.
