Thrive Themes Voice WordPress Theme : Features Details

Core Layout : The entire side is crafted with content as main element so you are not going to see header on the top area. The header elements like logo, menu and widgets are placed on the sidebar. The left of the screen includes space to display everything that is normally placed on header. But this theme design is revised with new style where traditional top header is eliminated so that user can only see featured posts or full post contents while scrolling on the website.

The sidebar that you see on Voice demo is presented with two parts. The top part is static which is not movable and shows logo image, author box and tag-line. The sidebar shows an app like menu button which shows menu links when clicked by user. So this is a hidden menu which shows all links from primary navigation bar. Right besides that, it has search icon which shows search box when click by visitor.

Voice Sidebar Menu - Logo - Widgets

The top sidebar section includes space to display main logo and menu links which is mostly included in header. The bottom section provides scroll support where you can add custom widgets. So it could show recent posts, popular articles, categories, and other stuff using custom sidebars. Thanks to featured post sidebars which shows thumbnails for all posts shown using widgets.

Frontpage Layout : We just talked particularly about sidebar and now we will have a look at entire site layout. When you land on Voice theme demo then you will see that left sidebar remains static while scrolling through the page. Whether you scroll on homepage or single post, the sidebar is not going to move from it’s place. This type of design makes sure that user can always be in contact with navigation links, sidebar and other important elements.

When you check featured post entries on front-page or archive sections then you will feel very much attached to the contents. Because, all post entries show big featured images, and large titles. It shows custom excerpt preview with “Read more” button which takes user onto full article.

Post Formats : Thrive Themes has provided blog post formats for flexible blogging. So authors and content marketers never have to choose additional tools to share videos, gallery and other elements. The post editor will show you post formats list on the right side so you can just click radio button option for desired post type. Once you are done with post format selection then it will automatically load custom post options just below the header.

So for e.g. if you choose video post type then you will find video embedding feature in post options box. The blog post formats list includes 6 choices that includes Video, Image, Galley, Quote, Audio and Standard post.

Thrive Themes : Best Blog Theme Features

Single Post : This WordPress blog theme is optimized with social sharing floating bar that appears on header.

This author box can display a default image as you like, and it will automatically rotate author box image as per post selection. So user is always going to see different author image which depends on which author as written the article. You will see back-end options to display author details, image, social links, and more.

Sidebar Background : This is most powerful and appealing feature of Voice WordPress theme. We have seen many WordPress themes that provides custom header support where you can use color or image. But this theme provides more options than any advanced blogging theme. The theme let’s yo choose default option which shows default image as sidebar background.

If you choose color then it shows that color style as background. The “Image” option shows custom image for sidebar background. And finally the last is “Featured Image’ which dynamically changes sidebar background as per current post or page. What I mean is that, it just picks feature image from current post and shows it with blurred and and auto scale mode to match the height of the sidebar.
