I was originally inspired by Windows 8's metro design style but eventually just went freestyle. Feel free to read more about my thought process.
Features:
- Sidebar can fit a 300x250 ad
- This theme is based on Twitter Bootstrap so feel free to use any Bootstrap's CSS classes and scripts.
- There's also media queries so it can automatically resize based on screen size
- The CSS is written in LESS and then compiled with SimpLESS (both included)
Included templates:
- template.php (default)
- page-fullwidth.php (no sidebar)
- page-home.php (homepage)
- page-withdate.php (includes the date in the article footer)
Downsides:
- Didn't do cross-browser testing but layout shouldn't break since almost all of it is Bootstrap
- Doesn't have child-page support
Installation:
Basically your standard standard installation
1. Download http://get-simple.info/extend/theme/metro-theme/421/
2. Unzip
3. Move to /themes folder
4. Activate in admin panel
The default template uses these components:
Code:
<?php get_component('tagline'); ?>
<?php get_component('sidebar'); ?>
<?php get_component('footer'); ?>The homepage uses these for the 3 blocks:
Code:
<?php get_component('home-1'); ?>
<?php get_component('home-2'); ?>
<?php get_component('home-3'); ?>License
Go nuts. Use it yourself, for friends, clients, etc. Just don't resell or claim ownership. I won't track you down but you should feel bad if you because that's not nice
