The new “World” WordPress theme
It has been a while since we added new themes to our WordPress gallery. That is why I am quite thrilled to announce the release of the “World” WordPress theme. Unusual for a free theme as it is, this is the first of a new generation of themes we launch with its own admin panel from where you can control a rich set of features.
Once you install our WordPress theme, you will notice an additional menu added to your WordPress admin page. This is the settings panel of”World”. Here are some of the characteristics you can manage from the admin panel:
Five different color schemes
“World” has five different color palettes that you can choose from: Orange, Blue, Red, Green, and Purple. Simply select the desired color from the admin panel and the entire theme will change accordingly.
Social networking widgets
We have included in the theme the functionality to display links to your social network profiles – FaceBook, Google, Twitter as well as a link to your RSS emission. Simply enable it, set a title and add the URLs to your profiles to link them on your site.
Custom logo
The header image is easily replace-able and you could put your own logo in that area. Simply add the URL to your site’s logo in the “World” admin panel and it will replace the globe and servers picture at the top of your page. There is no need of replacing images or making code modifications.
Fully widgetized
We have designed our theme so you can simply drag and drop the selected widgets to your right column and your footer.
Breadcrumbs
We have added breadcrumbs functionality to our theme. If you decide to enable it, it will appear right under your main menu.
Fancybox
What used to be a fancy way of showing images is now a necessity for every modern website. We have included one of the best jQuery-based lightbox systems available – Fancybox right into the theme. Just enable it and your images will pop-up in a stylish, fast and lightweight way.
Back to the top link
A nice little jQuery script that allows you to return back to the top of the site in a smooth eye-pleasing way.
Footer copyright text
Now you can add the copyright text of your website at the bottom of your pages without having to use the html theme editor.
So, we hope you’ll like it. It’s free for download and you can get it from our WordPress themes gallery!
The good thing about it is the theme is Free. I would like to try it today.
I am using this theme, but I cannot figure out how to remove “DATE”, “AUTHOR” and “COMMENTS” from all pages.
Hello,
If you want to remove it completely, you have to edit few files in your theme directory: index.php, single.php, archive.php and page.php. In them you need to remove two divs with classes “date_holder” and “postmetadata” and all the content in them. That will do the trick
I removed the search, archives and categories widgets via design>widgets. The still appear even after refreshing the page. How do I completely remove them?
Hi,
Please check whether you’re removing the search widget from the appropriate sidebar. In addition, if you’re using any caching plugin, make sure you flush the cache after you make such changes.
What about sub-menus. The sub menu don’t display at all. Can you let me know how can i do that?
Hi,
I am afraid that this theme is designed to have only one line of menu items without and does not support sub-menus.
Hi Hristo-I want to replace the existing header image with my own image but I do nor really understand what you mean by” add the URL to your site’s logo in the “World” admin panel and it will replace the globe and servers picture at the top of your page. There is no need of replacing images or making code modifications”-can you please explain how I do this step-by-step?
Hi,
First, upload your new logo to your website. You can use the Media Manager to do that. Then, copy its URL – i.e: http://www.yoursite.com/logo.png and paste it on the above mentioned field in the World theme settings page. That should be enough, you don’t need to modify the theme in order to change the logo
