I know ColorLabs already have some selections of magazine-styled and newspaper themes, but professional bloggers and independent news sites are showing up everywhere around the globe that a WordPress theme developer can never have enough magazine-styled WordPress theme. So, today I am introducing Initiator — ColorLabs’ most recent magazine-styled theme designed by the talented Muhammad Zulkarnain.

Initiator is great for your blogs (both single and multi-user) or news sites, or whatever else you want to throw at it. It comes along with an extremely flexible layout and several subtle block styles – and one not-so-subtle style for highlighting important content on your front page!

Magazine-Styled with Newspaper Feel

We’ve built in a lot of custom features and options to give people a little taste of what is possible, and how some small functionality tweaks can make a huge difference to the overall experience of browsing a blog. On top of that we’ve wrapped all that functionality up in a really cool and modern theme, with nice big title fonts, and a stylish colour scheme.

The first thing you might noticed is the Headline Slider at the top. An attention catcher that is not too much but just the right size. Choose which articles you want to highlight in the slider and it will also shows  some details of the post, giving the homepage a newspaper feel.

And then there is the Category Preview which will show the latest post of each category that you chose. You can easily control which categories are displayed on the 4 boxes through the Theme Options on your WordPress admin dashboard. In fact, you can style and customize almost every aspect of the theme right through the WordPress admin dashboard.

You Go Straight to the Fun. We’ll Take Care the Geek Part

Designing a blog is not usually the exciting part for bloggers. You are eager to get started on the content, build up a base of readers and see where it takes you. But you have to remember that without a good design your website may not be successful.
