Who’s the Real Erling?
As with our other themes, the name Erling has a personal reference. Erling (pronounced ERLihNG) is a Scandinavian named that means “descendent of the jarl”, a derivative of the Old Norse word jarl meaning “chieftain, nobleman, earl”.
Erling was my grandfather. He immigrated from Denmark to the US as a young child. Erling was a very bright man who loved to bowl and to test his knowledge with TV shows like Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy.
He, along with my grandmother, raised me from the time I was eleven years old. For many reasons I have great admiration for my grandparents, but the sacrifice they showed in voluntarily raising a teenager in their golden years of retirement is certainly top on my list of reasons.

Wow, this is slick. I need to have my clients stop buying these themes individually and just bite the bullet and get the developer’s package. I love them all.

Glad you like it. It is a fun design – in a business kind of way. The Developer Pro Pack is a great option for developers.

I’m thinking of using this theme for a site with ecommerce features I’m working on for a client. Is this theme able to handle that?
Rebecca Gill says
This theme has not be coded for eCommerce. While it will work with common plugins like WooCoomerce, Woo’s CSS will need to be adjusted to match the theme.
