Hello Satish, I love the theme. I have an issue with the way it looks in IE and the way it looks with firefox. I use the theme in a magazine option. My left and right columns are leveled well in appearance, when viewed in FIREFOX. However, in my internet explorer it is not leveled. In fact, my contents in the left column are all the way at the bottom of the page and the contents in the middle and right columns remain at the same column.

I’ll appreciate it if you got back to me, as I would like for it to look the same in internet explorer as it does in firefox.

Is Swift “translation ready” yet? It is a great theme that I really want to use but all my readers speak french! :’(

I’d like to be able to change the number of magazine posts that appear on the homepage.

I like the human feedbak from the creator. This is the most involved I’ve been with a theme creator. I honestly thought about making my own, by I don’t need to now thanks to swift theme. (By the way “The fastest loading WordPress themes” doesn’t make since, when there’s only one) “The fastest loading WordPress theme”

I see the new WPML version 1.7 hooks into everything themes use, so there is no need anymore to change them so that they’re fully compatible. Quite nice!

But I’d still love for an easy way to place a language selector in one of the navigation bars, as it doesn’t look quite right in the sidebar.

Alexander did a great job of collecting all of the wordings…the rest of the issues seem to have been addressed with your last drop.

Good work, again. Love the layout…especially how customizable it is.

You’re welcome. This is an awesome theme, and now I’m quite masochistically looking forward into going through that list all over again, now for translating it into Brazilian Portuguese.
One extra suggestion: I’m going to build multi-language blogs using both Swift and the WPML plugin. From the basic tests I made Swift works well with WPML, but it’d be extra nice if, in addition to being translation-ready, Swift also included explicit WPML support, specially given the premium features the theme provides, such as the slider.
The WPML website has a guide for adding explicit support. I don’t know PHP well, but from the little I know it seems to be easy enough, mostly a matter of including a .php file, replacing a few WordPress function calls by wpml_ versions, and reserving an area for the language selector (to the right of one or both navigation bars would be an ideal place):

Please think about it, okay?
Thanks!

:O thats a long scary list.

I implemented most of the suggestions you made, except for the colors page and a few other. The whole correction process took a lot of time, you should have spent more time than me going through each and every option. Thanks for your time, I appreciate your help.

Thanks a lot .

I will release the update of the theme with these corrections tomorrow.

Sorry for starting another comment.
I have also noticed that when the slider is activated, older posts are not shown underneath the slider.
This goes for excerpts as well as full posts on the homepage.
