    I have several websites using the Prose theme which I love because it is easy to change colors, etc. BUT I am getting results that show the sites are not mobile responsive. I also see that it is not still sold by StudioPress. I suspect that is because it has not been upgraded to HTML5 and is not mobile responsive. Is there another theme that is as easy to use for a novice as prose and has been upgraded or can someone point out to me?

    The sites that I am using prose on are using tables to create categories for ecommerce. I'm not using woo-commerce but another shopping cart that I've used for years (cart 7 from precisionweb.net). I create category pages with tables and use shortcodes for product pages. When I converted from html to wordpress, my traffic dropped dramatically and I'm trying to figure out why. I know mobile responsiveness is part of it.

    Two of the sites are: http://www.shopcreativegifts.com and http://www.giftbasketnetwork.com

    I'd suggest taking a look at the Design Palette Pro plugin, as it adds the same options to change fonts, colors, etc. just like Prose to any StudioPress theme. (It doesn't work with third party themes, however.) You can find more about it here: http://my.studiopress.com/genesis-design-palette-pro/

    I'd definitely recommend using the column classes built into Genesis instead of tables. Tutorial here: http://my.studiopress.com/tutorials/content-column-classes/
