A WordPress theme for online magazines
Category-driven homepage with featured stories, author pages, and ad-slot zones — built for editorial teams that publish daily.
This use-case page is in English while we finalize native review for the other locales.
Why it fits
- Category-driven homepage layout (lead story + per-category strips)
- Author pages with bio, photo, and full back-catalog
- Editorial workflow plays nicely with PublishPress (drafts, reviews, scheduling)
- Ad-slot zones in header / sidebar / between-paragraphs (compatible with Google Ad Manager)
- Newsletter signup slot — magazines convert readers to subs better than blogs do
- Native 8 locales — multi-language magazines without third-party translation plugins
Frequently asked
Can I set different layouts per category?▾
Yes — the theme reads category meta and switches the archive layout based on a 'layout' field you set in WP Admin → Categories. Tutorial available in the docs.
Does it support Google Ad Manager / AdSense?▾
Ad-slot zones accept any HTML/JS snippet. AdSense auto-ads (single tag) and Google Ad Manager (named zones) both work. We don't bundle an ad-management plugin — that's a separate concern.
How does it handle 50+ contributors?▾
WordPress core scales fine to hundreds of users. The theme just queries author posts per page. The bottleneck at large scale is usually the database, not the theme.
Lifetime license — daily publishing without yearly licensing surprises.
