asked on

Wordpress/Dreamweaver Did we get lied to when they created our website?

Hello,

The company that created this website for us

www.researchandrecognition.org 

told us that it was a dreamweaver bootstrap template. It looks just like this theme:

https://themeforest.net/item/reflex-corporate-html5-template/17645578

Did we get lied to? And does it matter - is it professional to use Wordpress? We got charged a lot of money.

Thanks.

If you view the source you will see below.  Note on line 18 bootsrap is loading.  http://getbootstrap.com/ is a framework more than a theme or template.  Dreamweaver is an IDE used to edit your code. There are many editors from notepad++, jetbrains,  visual studio etc that will work equally as well.

It sounds like you  may have buyers remorse.  As noted you have a professional site.

Thanks.
