Modern Design
This theme features a trending
bold & flat design, with a lot of unique touches. It is based on a
1140px responsive grid, and it features a lot of cool styles and customization options.
100% Responsive
It is totally
responsive, meaning that it will look good on all kinds of mobile devices. The sliders have
touch events enabled & the entire content is
scaling properly down to the smallest size.
Retina Ready
All the images in this theme will look
sharp on devices with a high DPI. If you provide large sizes, when a user opens the site in a
retina device a cookie will be stored on his device and after the first refresh all images will look really good!
Highly Customizable
The entire look of the theme
can be easily changed through a lot of cool options provided with the
Theme Customizer which allows you to edit the theme and preview your changes in
real time. You can change colors, fonts & a lot of options in the layout.
Awesome Page Builder
Shadow includes a slightly modified version of the awesome
Visual Composer for WordPress plugin, which allows you to build up your own pages
with an incredible ease! There are
lots of shortcodes available, and all of these provide
many options for custom layouts of functionality. By combining everything available the
possibilities are endless! You can build anything with this theme, whether you’re a seasoned web developer, a talented designer or even if you’re just starting out with WordPress.
Unique Sliders
The sliders of this theme are based on the great
Revolution Slider plugin, which is an outstanding slider creator by it’s own. But if that’s too much for you, you can always use simpler sliders, such as the flexslider plugin.
Advanced Portfolios
With Shadow you can create
unlimited portfolios with completely different settings. You can have
three or four columns, there are two thumbnail styles, you can use
images, slideshows & all kinds of videos easily, and each project can be created with custom shortcodes via the
page builder. All thumbnails are
automatically generated and cropped so you really don’t have to worry about anything! The galleries are created with
drag & drop features, so it’s easier than ever to create a good looking portfolio in a matter of minutes.
Advanced Blog
The blog is also unique in this theme, giving you the option to have a
classical blog or a
masonry style grid. The shortcodes give you the option to have
unlimited blogs, each one loading it’s own categories or posts. Post formats such
images, galleries, videos, quotes, links or
audio are also supported.
WooCommerce Ready
The theme offers custom styles for the popular WooCommerce plugin. You have a cool design for the main shop grid, for the product page, a cool AJAXified cart icon and much more.
You can create
as many sidebars as you wish, to use in each one of your pages. The sidebars can be either
left sided or
right sided and inside them you can use all the default
WordPress widgets, or most of the awesome shortcodes available in the page builder.
The menus can go up to
three level of links, being optimized for touch devices and providing a responsive menu for small devices and screens.
Parallax Backgrounds
As it can be seen, the theme gives you the option to have different parallax backgrounds on
any page! Any full-width row can have it’s own background color, image or pattern, so with just a bit of imagination, you can create a really
unique experience for your users.
Typography Options
The theme offers over
500 custom fonts via
Google Fonts. There are types for headings, for italics and for the main body font.
SEO Ready
The theme is built with
SEO in mind, having a
good structure,
heading elements for titles,
alt tags for images and a
really great page speed!
