What it does
Many personal blogs start on a generic theme and end up looking cluttered, with the writing competing against sidebars and decoration. This theme takes a minimalist approach so your posts stay in focus. It offers a set of layouts and several post styles, which means a travel story, a photo set or a short update can each be presented in a format that fits the content. Custom widgets let you add extra elements to the page without crowding the design.
The theme is built on the Bootstrap framework and uses responsive, retina ready layouts, so pages adapt to desktops, tablets and phones and images stay sharp on high resolution screens. It works with WooCommerce and includes shopping layouts, which suits bloggers who want to sell a few products alongside their writing. WPML compatibility makes it possible to run the blog in more than one language. Social media integration and customization options round out the setup for a personal site.
Best for
- Personal bloggers sharing stories, photos and videos
