      Theme developers normally provide direct support for the themes they sell.  So it really depends who you purchased your theme from.

      If you bought it directly from a vendor like woothemes, themify, etc., then you will definitely find support options on the website where you made the purchase.

      If you bought your theme from a marketplace like themeforest.com, then you'd need to log back in and look for the developer or theme author - they will have some sort of theme support option through they're author profile.  If they don't, then they're probably not the most reputable vendor.

      Also many SEO improvements won't be theme-dependent and are easy to make with the help of plugins like YoastSEO or All in One SEO pack.

      What kinds of things are you trying to do? I may be able to point you in the right direction...

        Woothemes have very well designed and built themes right out of the box. They integrate well with SEO plugins as well. They do have a written documentation and a  support forum where users and the developers will answer questions you have.

          I know WooThemes and ElegantThemes both offer great forum based support.  Customization and troubleshooting support is so important in WP projects that I only look at themes from developers that have engaged communities.

            I think he means, themes that have been reworked for resale...Like some of the vendors ColinSV mentions..

                Hi ColinSv. I have just installed Yoast Seo and I am very impressed with it. I normally use Joomla but I am enjoying learning how to use wordpress.

                The site i am working on is www.cheapflightsgatwick.com

                i am trying to learn how to increase the number of articles i can have where it says gatwick news near the bottom. I would like to have 9 articles instead of the 3.

                  I mean when you buy a theme from a template club. I know wordpress has a forum if you download their free themes but they do not allow you to mention any theme that has been bought if you are trying to learn how to do things

                      Well, the name of your theme folder is "newpaper times single pro."   Search returns pretty much all torrent and spam sites.  So theme support is probably nonexistent.  However, I think you have enough of the word Gattwick as it is.

                        Hi, can you explain what you mean by Well, the name of your theme folder is "newpaper times single pro."   Search returns pretty much all torrent and spam sites

                        It is not the word gatwick that i am after, i am wanting to put more news there and are new to wordpress. I have been trying to use the firefox tool but not making any sense to be honest.

                          Yea sorry, I can explain a little better.  The style.css in a wordpress theme will usually have theme developer information. Yours looks like this:

                          Theme Name: NewspaperTimes [SinglePro Version]
                          Theme URI: http://magazine3.com
                          Description: Newspaper/Political Wordpress Magazine Theme
                          Version: 4.1
                          Author: Magazine3
                          Author URI: [http://magazine3.com](http://magazine3.com/)
                          
                          If you purchased it from them then you should be entitle to some sort of support.
                          
                          And as for the firefox developer tools you're inspecting the CSS and HTML, there's a lot
                          involved in making the changes you want to make.  You'd need to be comfortable with
                          those as well as PHP to dynamically load in featured images and excerpts.

                            cheers for this. yes i bought it from them as to basically try and learn all about wordpress before i build one from scratch. I normally use joomla and i was worried for a minute that they were using the site to promote themselves

                            many thanks

                              Depending on how that news is put there, it is likely to be an easy change to a plugin, a widget or a code change.

                              A 5 minute investigation will tell you which it is.

                                it is good when there is a forum as you can share experiences and gain knowledge but finding a lot of theme clubs without forums
