HotCake 1.5 - for Joomla Retina Mobile Template

Product background

HotCake for Joomla is based upon the tremendously successful HotCake HTML template released exclusively on ThemeForest by the end of 2011 and provides a convenient way for your customers and visitors to gather information about your business and products on the go.

Make sure your visitors can see relevant business information or product details from wherever they are, whenever they need to, by creating a mobile version of your website using Joomla and this template.

Important Notice Please keep in mind that this template has been released within the Joomla category, which means that the current item just works using Joomla 1.5.x or 2.5+. If you’re looking for the basic HTML version of this template in order to use it just like that or to integrate it into the CMS of your choice, please have a look at the plain HTML version. In addition to that, please make sure to send me an email or submit a comment if you should run into any kind of problem prior to submitting a low rating — I usually do anything I can in order to help you out as you may see if you browse through the comments yourself. Thanks!
