Overview

Many WordPress themes are made for blogs or business sites, which leaves community builders to adapt a layout that was never meant for member interaction. MateBook is a micro-niche theme made for social networking, so its design and page layouts are shaped around that purpose from the start.

It is built around the PeepSo3 plugin, which is lightweight and free. On top of that, the theme provides dedicated pages for friends, streams, groups and a shop, along with a responsive, retina-ready layout. Push messages, carousels and sticky menus support everyday use, and translation files help when the community speaks more than one language.

Features

  • Built for PeepSo: The theme is based on the free PeepSo3 plugin, which adds a social networking platform to a WordPress site without heavy resource use.
  • Dedicated social pages: Page layouts cover Friends, Stream, Groups and Shop pages, giving community members clear places to connect, follow activity and browse products.
  • Responsive, retina-ready layout: The layout adapts to desktops, tablets and phones, and is made to look sharp on high-resolution screens.
  • Cross-browser compatibility: The theme works across browsers, including Internet Explorer 11 onwards, so members on older setups can still use the site.
  • Custom SVG icons and Google Fonts: Custom SVG icons and Google Fonts give the design a modern look, and both can be adjusted to match your brand.
  • Push messages and carousels: Smart UX elements such as push messages and carousels help keep members informed and engaged as they move through the community.
  • Sticky menus: Menus stay in view while visitors scroll, which makes navigation easier on long streams and busy pages.
  • Translation and utility pages: POT files support translation into other languages, and ready-made 404 and Coming Soon pages cover the basics of a finished site.

Best for

  • Niche communities and interest-based groups on WordPress
  • Bloggers and influencers building a member network
  • Brands that want a social space with a shop
