This is one of our most classic, best-selling WordPress themes. Its a beautiful display of that glossy look that made you first fall in love with the web 2.0 revolution. In 2014, we completely re-built the theme on our renowned, responsive framework shared with the likes of our other popular themes and Jump Start. With this came the new name, Commodore.
Whether your website visitors are browsing from a Retina MacBook Pro, a Retina iPad, or any of the other high-resolution devices that inevitably will come onto the market, Commodore has you covered. The themes stylesheets automatically check each website visiters device pixel-density ratio, and then serve up all of the themes details crafted for their specific resolution. The result is a graphically beautiful experience, no matter the device.
The entire theme, all the way down through the Theme Blvd Framework at the core, has been carefully built around the modern era of responsive web design. No longer should we be concerned with specifically just the iPad or the iPhone, but we need to focus on the entire mobile and tablet experience, as a whole. That is the approach we take at Theme Blvd.
Make sure to view the themes live demo on your various devices and browse through all of the demonstrated features.
With complete WordPress Customizer support, just the right amount of Theme Options, and logical default values, youll be sure to have a unique site that stands out above the rest, without having to sift through an endless abyss of configuration.
Many of our display options are pretty standard throughout our themes utilizing the Theme Blvd framework. These include standard features like selecting a custom sidebar layout, implementing a custom logo, with the option for it to be HiDPI/Retina-ready, etc. However, where you will find this themes truly unique stylistic options are under the Styles tab.
You can choose from a light or dark style for the overall look of your website. Then, youve got 15 carefully, crafted color variations to choose from for your skin. The skin option sets the color of the main menu, footer, and overall wrapping design.
Next, you can top everything off with your background selection. Select from the themes elegant 60 background presets. Or, looking for something custom? The theme also provides full support for WordPresss custom background setup. Anything you do there will override the themes background options.
In addition, you also have control over your typography. You can select any color for your website links. And since your footers background color is determined by the skin, you can also select a separate color for links within the footer. Also, you can select custom fonts for you websites text. Pick from our web-safe presets, or input any font that exists in the Google Font Directory.
Here is an exact breakdown of each Theme Options page youll receive with the theme:
