FastVideo Review : HappyThemes
NewsBlock WordPress Theme Overview :
Homepage Layout : Just browse homepage demo or any category archive listing page to see the grid style listing layout. It uses no sidebar with grid style to display 3 columns together in single page. While adding many post entries in single page, it still provides good visibility by maintaining decent spacing among all the columns and content sections.
Featured Post : Listing pages use excerpt layout to promote latest post on category pages or homepage. You will see that every post entry shows title with bold font style and medium sized thumbnail. You can show or hide excerpt which is optional and managed from back-end area. When yo hover mouse on featured post then it shows social sharing buttons instantly.
Other contents displayed with featured posts are Category Name, Publish Date, Comments count etc. The post display style that we see in NewsBlock demo is attractive as it uses big thumbnail size and eliminates excerpt. Therefore, visitors will always find post title and images which both are attraction points. This type of post listing styles can help website visitors to find best articles as per their interest and boost page views easily.
Back To Top link : News and magazine platforms mostly serve visitors with long archive pages having lots of contents in single page. That’s where you can use back to top link to scroll on the top area of the page. This button link is found on right bottom corner of the screen in floating style. So, it will always follow you when you are in middle, bottom or anywhere on the page.
