Modularity: A Multimedia Theme Framework
Modularity is a highly customizable multimedia theme framework for Wordpress. The theme design was developed with users who appreciate visual browsing and prefer a minimal layout, with their photos and multimedia featured front and center. Virtually every aspect of the theme design can be controlled from either the Theme Options page or the Homepage Settings page.
Modularity includes:
- Built in full-screen HD video player
- Optional homepage slideshow
- Optional homepage Mac-style image slider gallery
- Optional homepage Magazine-style post layout
- Optional homepage blog-style layout
- Theme Options page, where you can define background, text, link colors, contact info, site tracking code and more.
- Homepage Settings page where you can choose which apps show up on your homepage layout
- S.E.O. optimized titles and alt tags
- Four widgetized areas
- Click-down navigation for a compact, minimalist masthead.
- Built in multimedia custom field support
- Automatic thumbnail generation. No need to manage thumbnails using custom fields
- Blueprint CSS framework
- Valid, clean code
The theme includes “apps” which you can enable or disable from the Homepage Settings page. These apps can transform the theme into a portfolio site for photographers and multimedia producers, a magazine-style site, or a normal blog-style homepage literally at the click of a button. In the future, we will be releasing “child themes” for Modularity to provide design alternatives and additional applications that will make Modularity even more configurable. You’ll definitely want to subscribe to GraphPaperPress.com to keep up on all the latest developments and enhancements for Modularity.
