Explorable Theme Review – Elegant Themes
Why Flexible Elegant Themes ?
Most of the business WordPress themes are integrated with basic portfolio features. As a result, you still have to work hard to create project listings. Some of the themes ask you to install “JetPack” or other portfolio plugins. But this theme gives you built-in options for portfolio and gallery management. So you are never dependent on 3rd party portfolio tools. It just makes easy way to create custom portfolio page and listings.
The Flexible theme has advanced customization control panel which helps you to optimize visual elements easily. This control panel make easy way to select best color skins instead of having to pick colors one by one from ePanel. In order to enable control panel, you have to enable it from General tab under ePanel. Once you do that, then you will find settings box on the left side.
After that, you can use all different settings to adjust best color style for your business site. The ready options are very helpful to those people who are new to WordPress or web design world. You just have to know basic of WordPress and nothing much. A non programmer person can also start and manage portfolio website with this WordPress theme.
The sleek design always puts contents in primary focus and use minimum design elements. Hence you will see greater performance even when you add video, images an other contents.
Flexible WordPress Theme Features Review :
Top Slider and Header : The homepage area has wide and unique slider to add anything for main highlight. Whether you have offers, best portfolio or informative blog posts, it shows all of them. You just have to decide what you want to display on sideshow. The slider options tab allows you to pick pages or posts. The slider allows you to use featured image, text and other contents. So visitors are instantly attracted to browse best contents.
Flexible header is very simple but it still offers space to display company logo and custom navigation bar. The logo section gives you image uploader or you can just display text instead of image. The tag-line helps you to attach a message or slogan that relates to your brand. The right portion of header shows space to display menu-bar links to connect portfolio, blog, contact, homepage and other useful section.
We liked top right area of the header where you can display phone number to get direct phone calls. It would surely boost your leads and would encourage local clients to get in touch with you through phones.
Welcome Area : This block is located underneath slideshow and it is given as welcome block. It allows you to display two lines of message that could be a quick business introduction or welcome slogan. Hence, visitors will easily notice it when they come over homepage. This is good place to talk about your best skills, specialty or anything that is unique about your agency.
