New Upfront WordPress Magazine Theme – Say Hello to Issue
Another week, another lot of new goodies for WPMU DEV members, and this time round it’s a stylish, crisp magazine-inspired theme that works straight outta the box with our WordPress theme framework Upfront…. say helloooo to Issue.
Our new magazine-inspired WordPress theme for Upfront.
So, what can you expect from our latest new release?
It’s Built With Upfront
Yep, this theme is 100% Upfront, which means that your world just got a whole lot lovelier, specifically because:
You can tweak, edit and update it super, super easily with amazing drag-and-drop tools, creating a beautiful WordPress site has never been easier
With Upfront Builder you can create completely new themes out of Issue to share, export or even sell
It’s compatible with the vast majority of popular WordPress plugins (WooCommerce on the way too…)
You won’t need any other plugins or shortcodes to run this theme
It’s future-proof, guaranteed
Customizing Issue with Upfront’s front-end editor couldn’t be easier.
If you haven’t tried Upfront yet, you can actually experience what it’s like to use just by visiting Issue’s live preview and clicking on Try with Upfront in the top bar.
Just double-click anywhere to change text, drag around elements, tweak backgrounds, swap out images, and just generally have a great time customizing the theme with your own content and branding to look exactly how you want.
And when you’re done, hit Save. The great thing about Issue – and Upfront – is that it makes it super easy to launch a new site, or even change up how it looks for a completely different look that’s totally you.
It’s Beauuuuutifully Done
We haven’t cut a single corner in putting this theme together for you. From the typography to the styling, every aspect has professional designer stamped all over it.
Issue features stunning fonts chosen by our in-house design team.
Issue uses the Lato font family, and I reckon you’ll agree it looks elegant and crisp.
With semi-rounded characters and a strong structure that makes it super easy to read, Lato also shows sleek detail at larger sizes.
And, of course, if you should want to change it, Upfront gives you access to every Google Font out there too, which isn’t going to hurt.
Design touches include drop-down navigation.
And the touches extend from the fonts to navigation, especially for this theme, a really nice accordion menu style that we reckon you (and your visitors) will love.
