Overview

Publishing sites need a layout that handles many stories at once. A news or magazine site has to present headlines, categories and long articles in a way readers can scan quickly. SmartMag is made for that kind of content-heavy setup, with a structure aimed at newspaper, magazine and news style websites.

The theme is built with Elementor, so page layouts can be arranged in a visual editor. It adds a mega menu for navigating large category trees, dark mode for readers who prefer a darker screen, and Google AMP support. It fits tech blogs, finance, lifestyle, gaming and review sites.

Features

  • Built for news and magazines: The theme is designed around newspaper, magazine and news publishing, giving editorial sites a layout suited to frequent articles and many categories.
  • Elementor-based building: SmartMag is built with Elementor, so you can arrange and adjust pages with a visual editor instead of writing code for every layout change.
  • Dark mode: A dark mode option lets readers view the site with a darker color scheme, which some people find easier on the eyes in low light.
  • Google AMP support: The theme includes support for Google AMP, so articles can be served in the AMP format on sites that choose to use it.
  • Mega menu: A mega menu helps visitors move through large sites, making it easier to organize many sections and categories in one navigation area.
  • SEO-minded foundation: SEO is part of the theme's feature set, giving publishers a base to work from when they set up content-heavy sites.
  • Used on high-traffic sites: SmartMag has been tested on large traffic news sites, which makes it a practical choice for publishers planning a busy site.
