SilverBlog – Free WordPress Theme
After a long break between new free WordPress theme releases, we finally have a new one! This one is another designed by CSS Heaven, ported from a free CSS template of the same name.
It has several standard features including WP 3.0 navigation menu support, threaded comments, post thumbnails, and widget-readiness. We’ll get to those features later.
WordPress 3.0 Menu Support
There is a WP 3.0 menu placed in the top right portion of the theme (above the search box). You can also use them in any widgetized area.
Widgetized Stuff
There are widgetized areas on the sidebar, 404 page, as well as the “Featured” box on the main index template.
You can override the Featured box by using the custom “Featured Content” widget in the Featured widget area. You’ll need to input a heading, text, and a full image URL.
Post Thumbnails
There is post thumbnail support on individual post and page templates. There are a couple included in the /images/ directory. Here is a sample of one and the placement (right above the content).
They are set not to exceed 609 pixels in width. Height is up to you, although you may not want to make it too high as it will push the content too far down the page.
License
GPL. You can do pretty much whatever you want with it, modify, redistribute, whatever (except release it under another incompatible license).
Conclusion
Hope you all like the theme. Let me know what you think in the comments.
And of course, thanks again to Roshan of CSS Heaven for designing another great template!
