Urban Mag – News & Magazine WordPress Theme

News and magazine sites need layouts that put stories first and still look like the publication's own brand. Urban Mag handles this with a responsive design that adapts to desktops and smartphones, along with color settings that reach nearly every element on the site. Bloggers, journalists and publishers can set the look of the whole publication without rebuilding pages from scratch.

Setup starts with the GoodLayers Importer, which copies the demo site so you begin from a finished structure. A page builder with one-click settings applies pre-configured layouts for pages such as the homepage and contact page. Shortcodes add extra content elements, and landing page templates let you hide the header, footer or both. PSD files are included for anyone who wants to adjust the design further.

Features

• GoodLayers Importer: Replicate the demo site in a few clicks, so you start with a ready structure for your news or magazine site instead of building every page by hand.
• One-click page builder settings: Apply pre-configured layouts for the homepage, contact page and other pages, which saves time when assembling the main sections of your site.
• Parallax and color sections: Add parallax backgrounds with adjustable speed or a fixed position, and use color sections to break up long pages and set stories apart.
• Customizable parallax skins: Change font and link colors inside parallax sections so text stays readable and matches the rest of the design.
• Landing page templates: Disable the header, the footer or both to build focused landing pages that keep visitors on a single message with fewer distractions.
• Unlimited color customization: Adjust nearly every color element on the site, so the theme can follow your publication's brand style and look distinct.
• Shortcodes for content elements: Use a range of shortcodes to add rich content elements to posts and pages without custom coding.
• Responsive layout and PSD files: The design adapts to all screen sizes and devices. Included PSD files give designers a starting point for further customization and branding.
