Gallery – a thematic child WordPress Theme
Two featured themes in one day! We are going to burst at the seams!
This is a unique Gallery WordPress theme which is built on the Thematic framework. This theme will allow you to create individual galleries which are easy to navigate using categories in the drop down menus.
Gallery is packed with loads of cool features like a jQuery slide hover effect on thumbnails, lazy loading for thumbnails (great if using a lot of thumbnails on one page), built-in social media links for each gallery item and seamless integration with the following plugins: WP-PostRatings, BuySellAds plugin, and Contact Form 7.
If you’d like an endless wall of thumbnails, LazyLoad allows you to show as many posts on the homepage as you’d like, allowing your users to scroll endlessly down the page without having to load hundreds of images right away. This effect mimics “endless scroll.”
Gallery also supports WordPress 2.7 threaded comments for an elegant commenting experience.
We can say as much as we like about this theme, but in all honesty, youre going to want to try this one out for yourself. It is just an absolutely stunning theme, and a breeze to use and install. For those who have never installed a theme and framework, we have prepared a nice little tutorial for this one.
And for those who prefer text:
To use the Gallery WordPress Theme, you will need to follow these installation instructions:
- Download the latest version of Thematic.
- Download the latest version of the Gallery WordPress theme.
- Unzip and upload both themes to your “wp-content/themes/” directory.
- In WordPress, go to “Appearance > Themes” and activate the “Gallery” theme.
- To change the number of items displayed on the home page, go to
“Settings > Reading” and change “Blog pages show at most” to 28 (4
rows) or 35 (5 rows) or more for the LazyLoad plugin to work its magic. LazyLoader will automatically delay loading of thumbnails that are out of the user’s view.
