Arthemia Premium at ColorLabs
Posted on 18 Aug 2008 by Michael Hutagalung
Arthemia Premium is magazine style theme for WordPress. Arthemia is unleashing the power of WordPress to become a simple-yet-powerful CMS (content management system) with the automatic thumbnail generation feature and theme administration panel. A fresh and awesome blend of a blog and a magazine, for you. You can take a look at some features of the theme here, some theme screenshots here, and see the demo here.
The Theme Walk-Through
The header part of the theme consists a small logo and a wide area for 728×90 advertisement space. Below, we have a nice drop-down navigation bar which displays pages that we have in our blog. To the right of the navigation bar, there is a search box and a magnifier icon.
Below the bar, there are the headline and featured section. The black box on the left will display one headline post of your blog and a short excerpt of the post. Excerpts can be added manually per post or taken automatically from the first 55 words of the post. There are two different layout for the headline section, you can see both live here and here. The featured section, located on the right, rotates a number of featured posts along with their thumbnails. Number of rotating posts can be defined from the theme admin panel.
Below those sections is the category bar. This colorful category bar will display five of your blog’s category along with the description of each category. To the left-bottom of the category bar, there is one big section that will display the content of your latest post. Below the latest post, there is a post listing which has a 2-column/1-column layout, each of which can be set from the theme admin panel. To the right of the post listing is the sidebar and category spoilers. These colorful category spoilers will display the latest post from its category and just below those spoilers are the normal blog-like widgets. You can add whatever widget you like there, just like usual WordPress blogs.
There are also a video section and random post section at the bottom of the page. The video section will display your latest video blog post and the video can be played right away from the front page. To the right of the video section is the random post section that will display 12 random posts of your blog, each of which is displayed in the thumbnail form. Just above the footer section, there are 3-column of favorite post lists and you can add ‘sidebar’ widgets here as well.
The Main Features
If you are running an online magazine, a corporate website, or even a personal blog, Arthemia Premium is your one-stop answer for your all needs.
- Theme Administration Panel.
You’ve got no idea about PHP, (X)HTML, and CSS? Don’t worry about all the complicated commands and manage everything from the theme administration panel. You can assign images for header logo, bookmark (favorite) icon, categories for headline and featured section, categories to be shown in the category bar, latest posts from each category, thumbnail sizes, show/hide post excerpts, and all. - Category Color Assignment.
You can assign colors to each of your blog category and stand out with your own styling. Colorful, duotone, grayscale, you name it. And again, no need to edit the stylesheet template. You can style the color to match your liking or simply customize it to match your logo color tone. Simply add the Web hex color values to the category color setting in the theme admin panel and, voila, your website, a new look. - Auto-Thumbnail Your Old Posts.
Seriously, please forget the time-consuming thumbnail generation with Photoshop, forget WordPress Post Custom Fields. Thumbnails across the theme will be assigned and generated automatically as requested, for every image sizes. You don’t need to spend your valuable time creating the thumbnail images but purely focus to your website content. Both automatic and via-custom-field assignment are available. - Easy Customizations.
You can also customize the look of your pages. Show or hide headline spoilers, colorful category bar, category spoilers, and video/random post gallery with a single click. If you don’t need any of those features, simply turn it off to suit your liking. The theme panel is designed to make all users, both novice and advanced users, experience the ease of customizations without getting any CSS/XHTML problem. - Google-friendly Website.
In addition to the integration of Google ad service: Adsense, Arthemia Premium provides you another in-depth integration with Google Analytics, the best and the most reliable web statistics, and with Google Feedburner, a feed and podcast management, giving you a better control of your RSS feeds.
