This is the best Xenforo theme that ThemeHouse has made so far, in my opinion. It seems to take the Flarum-inspired Flare in an even better direction that's both simple and elegant with its animations and complex shading and styling. I also appreciate the matching light and dark variants.



One thing I would suggest for themes like this one that omit the sub-navigation row is the option to turn it on anyway or to trigger the sub-nav flyouts on mouseover or click of the main nav when on desktop.



Nav menus on software that doesn't have a sub-nav row tend to communicate the existence of sub-areas to the user with mouseover events. You see this a lot on WordPress. I think that the down arrows XenForo uses are only seen as sufficient because it's assumed that the sub-nav row will always be visible regardless and therefore users who miss the flyout arrows will be able to find those pages anyway. But those little arrows are easy to miss when they're the only option to see the sub-nav areas (especially if you're new to XenForo). While using this theme, I've had a lot users say "Where is the option to do this?" and it was hidden in a subnav flyout menu that they couldn't find without me pointing it out.
