What it does
Running a lifestyle or entertainment blog means presenting a steady stream of articles, photos and videos in a way that feels consistent and easy to browse. Bourz handles that with a magazine-style design and a choice of design views for each section of the site. You can mix layouts to suit your content, whether that is a personal blog or a larger entertainment magazine, and the included demo site gives you a working starting point to adapt instead of building every page from scratch.
Much of the theme's character comes from its smaller elements. The sidebar is highly customizable and can hold widgets, advertisements or personal content, and widgets, navigation boxes and search fields each come in alternative designs. Colors, fonts and layouts are adjusted through the theme customizer without code. The layouts are responsive for phones and desktops, and the theme works with the Gutenberg editor and WooCommerce, so you can add a shop alongside your posts.
Best for
- Lifestyle and entertainment blogs
- Fashion bloggers and online fashion magazines
- Magazine sites that also sell products with WooCommerce
