TemplateToaster project

Question

Sorry for my question. Does the templatoaster software still exist or is it stopped and destined to close? I have not seen an update for many months and I have not seen any answers in the forum.

Answer 1

I'm a customer as you, i'm not sure if templatetoaster software has stopped? I have done some search and i notice that the expiration date of the website of templatetoaster.com is: 2026-11-09. So because the expiration date is in 2 years from now, i think because of so that templatetoaster still exist. My self also i do hope to have a reply from them in the customers services. I have put a public message at: https://templatetoaster.com/forum/8130/more-than-month-answer-last-ticket-note-this-message-recorded

If it has stopped then i think it would be normal that templatetoaster make there customers as my self, the possibility to have the latest recent software with an "offline activation key way". So like that the customers that had paid for the software, can re-install and re-use again and again on there own computer there paid software.

If not then i'm affraid that some media's (tv-radio-newspapers) talk about templatetoaster and how there customers that had paid is without services and help. If so then there could be many different media's that share the news to other media's as some sand storm in the desert. This would be terrible, because peoples would not want to do business anymore with the peoples that are responsible of templatetoaster, like it could be the president of templatetoaster, the vice-president, the accounting and so on.

Answer 2

I no longer see any interaction with technical support, no emails, no replies to tickets, no chat. The same thing happened 10 years ago with artisteer which then became templatetoaster. I am no longer recommending the purchase of this software to my friends on my forum and I must also say that I am slowly migrating the templates to Elementor or Bakery.

Could you please write the url of Elementor software and Bakery software? Also if you have suggestions to full free legal softwares (no trial or with limitations) about webpage design and creations with the url, i think peoples would appreciate it. I like a lot TemplateToaster, but i think to have some plan B might help peoples. Thanks for your reply.

Nothing free, but definitely very valid.

Answer 3

I have a suggestion, i'm not sure if its fine. There is the free (no trial no limitations) soft webpage designer named BlueGriffon version 3.1 said on some websites, but i dont know where to get it and if its good. For me i like very much TT soft, i do hope to have a reply soon from the customer service to my questions.

I know BlueGriffon. I use it sometimes, but the project has been finished for a long time and is no longer available online ... I have to check if I can find the setup file in some of my old backups.

I have done some search and have found the setup of BlueGriffon at:

Hope that it help you?

I have look the TT version 9 seem promissing, have not try it all, but i might have some suggestions for TT to make it better. All the things i have suggested to them, they have notice it helped them rise the popularity of there software and at the same time rise the amount of customers.

You can also check an old none official TT mini pdf guide if you want at:

TT ver. 9 is a beta version. The latest stable version is 8.1.0.21097 and the beta is 9_21098
The previous 9 release was 9_21090 .... the two executables are practically almost the same, a few dozen kb of difference. This means that they have made very few changes between the two beta releases in several months and there is no history of improvements or fixes.
I tried 9 but I don't trust it too much and it also seems that its development is very slow or maybe stopped for a long time. Finding myself with a template with bugs and with little hope of seeing them solved doesn't excite me too much

---

If so it's sad that TT could close. I still believe that the peoples here are great, are talented and are friendly. I do hope that my free pdf guide had helped many peoples? I dont have big knowledges in webpage creations, but i have think that if peoples show there talents trough some webpages; that it make some company interested in them. If this could maybe help them have a better life, then it's a good thing for them and there surrounding. Just want good things, and have good intentions.

Answer 4

No official response after a month. I think this is the most concrete response.

Seems TT is dead, same way as artisteer did..without let anyone knowing...yeah you still can pay for latest version..

Seems TT is not alive anymore, same way as artisteer did..without let anyone knowing...yeah you still can pay for latest version..

---

Exactly. I'm sorry for losing a very useful software. I'm also sorry because a few months ago I paid the renewal that I could have avoided.

---

Maybe TT is not alive anymore as you say. But i believe i have still more great ideas to make it better then it is at the moment. I do hope at leass, that i could have a setup file, that i can keep and activate the pro version offline, in case if one day TT dont exist anymore. So like that if my computer crash or have to format i can still use TT.

---

Yes, but that doesn't mean you'll be able to use it forever. Sooner or later, as CMS evolve, you'll run the risk of having templates that are no longer compatible or defective.

---

I agree, its quite possible trough time that it is no longer compatible. I know a person that still use Artisteer an old version to create html webpages, the person dont need to have some joomla, drupal, wordpress site; just for creating some html pages. Also that this person have some basic knowledges in html coding, and use the soft to simply create good look website and menu.

I have very similar the same needs as this person. A simple software to organize and manage html pages (create menu/sub menu/hamburger menu/side menu/footer/contents/etc.) real basic things. I like all in one softwares that are standalone, out of the box and easy.

Like if the software need Microsoft Runtime version X, Microsoft Redistributable version X, or what sort of software that it need; that the software already have into as an "all in one" offline software. So like that if the PC need to be formated and the OS need to be reinstalled, that the software have all things into.
