New “magazine front” theme

  • Have been having a fun time developing this theme and wanted your thoughts. Had to develop it on my own.. I’m a WordPress newbie.. .cause I couldn’t find anything similar.

    https://www.asburypark.com/wordpress/

    The colors still need some tweaking and there’s a couple of tweaks that need to be done for Explorer (what else is new).

    Most of the hacks have be hard coded into php… I’ll be moving them into styles as the theme settles.

    Please don’t share the URL with anyone who’s interested in Asbury Park… we’re not ready for public viewing. Instead, send them to the temporary home page… https://www.asburypark.com/

    Thoughts?

    OK. Done.

    Count me as another who would be interested in this theme. I just tried to look at it again, and it seems the file is now password protected.

    Sweetie, it’s password protected it seems. : /

    joedan: On the longer than content pages.
    Just please don’t!

    I read your arguments clear and loud, and I see your point.
    mumkin is right! The visual clues and scrolling techniques we are used to as working the same for all content are essential, such as the behavior of scroll bars and keyboard hits.

    There’s an old advise in all art, be it design or theater:
    “Kill your darlings!”

    Would love to see the theme… but appears to be passworded….
