What it does
Running a news or magazine site means publishing many kinds of content and keeping it all easy to read. This theme handles that with a responsive, retina-ready layout that adjusts to desktops, tablets and phones. You can start from one of several pre-built homepage layouts, then publish standard articles alongside gallery, video and audio posts so your front page and archives can mix written stories with multimedia.
Customization runs through a drag-and-drop customizer where you change layouts, colors, fonts and widgets, so editors without coding experience can still shape the site. Typography options cover a wide range of fonts and text styles to match your publication's tone. Built-in ad spaces give you places to run advertisements, social media integration connects your channels for sharing, and translation and RTL support make it workable for sites in other languages, including right-to-left scripts.
Best for
- Online news and magazine websites
