WordPress Structure Theme

I’ve wanted a complete blog makeover for some time on this blog. However, to get the good designers to custom make it, that runs a pretty penny. When re-designing Blogging Addiction I chose one of my favorite new themes.

Wordpress Structure Theme

Justin Tadlock
designed the structure theme. Make sure to upgrade to a newer WordPress to use it.

“Description: A theme for news/magazine sites with a blog-friendly option too. It includes built-in video and image features that easily allow you to customize your site. There are content blocks that you can place virtually anywhere on the page.”

What I like most about it, is that you can manipulate it (very easily) to however you want it. Whether you want it magazine style, featured posts, full or half posts, you can make it however you want.

The features are easily customizable, especially to start. You can add your feed subscriptions just by giving the URL etc. This  theme is definitely for a moderate WordPress user, but easy to learn.

Features

There are some features that definitely should be mentioned.

  • A custom home page to look like a news or magazine site (optional normal blog layout for the home page)
  • Related Posts plugin support
  • Plugin support for Popularity Contest by Alex King
  • WordPress 2.3 tag-ready
  • Placeholders for ads. Good sizes for 125×125px ads (must have for new themes)
  • Widget-Ready sidebar (not designed for them, kinda aligns it weird, but nice to have)

From the sounds of it, this theme really needs pictures. I think any type of photo blog may work really well here.

For more information about the Structure Theme you can view and download it here.

Structure has to be my new favorite theme, Whats yours and Why?

      I had looked at this theme as well, even tried it, but it just wasn’t my cup of tea for a personal, large content based, blog.

      I really like the looks and functions of this theme, alot. I am not sure if I am going with it though. I have Prosense-Grey right now, but I will certainly test this as I am in for a new theme as well and don’t have the $$ to get custom, yet.
