Hi Habr! Yesterday we unveiled “ Monstroid ” - a theme constructor for WordPress. The new product will suit WP users of various levels, and will also help create websites of varying complexity, including online stores.
The basis for the theme was the Cherry Framework 4 , from which they took all the best: plug-ins, shortcodes and added a lot of new and unique things. From the Cherry Framework 4, the novelty also adopted a modular code system, which made Monstroid even more flexible, since each module exists independently of the others.
The MotoPress content editor is built into Monstroid , which provides all sorts of layout options for page elements and styles ( browse on Habré — by drag'n'drop, you can change the page structure directly in the theme. ')
The template kit also includes a set of plug-ins that will help with customizing the site:
Monstroid Skin Switcher is a front-end switching tool (with styling Material, Flat, Metro, Minimal, Grunge, Skeuomorphic, Low Poly, Retro, 8-Bit or Non-Standard Geometry).
Monstroid Wizard will help to install the theme without leaving the admin panel. Theme files are uploaded through the plugin from the cloud.
MotoPress Slider - slider with lots of features.
Cherry Data Manager will help move and install the site (export / import sample data themes).
The Cherry Team, Cherry Services and Cherry Testimonials plug-ins create custom post types with predefined fields for easy display of service and feedback workers.
Cherry Portfolio will create a gallery and portfolio. The plugin adds its own post formats.
Cherry Shortcodes is a set of shortcodes that was introduced in Cherry Framework 4.
Cherry Blog Layouts allows you to display posts and listings in various presentation options.
Cherry Custom Sidebar is responsible for creating new sidebars.
Cherry Simple Slider includes a slider that can be inserted not only on the main page but also on any other.
Cherry Grid is a plugin that allows you to display posts in the form of Rows, Columns and Masonry.
Cherry Social is integrated with a large number of social networks. Includes like and share buttons, as well as commenting options.
Cherry Mega Menu is a plugin for advanced editing of site navigation. With it, you can attach images, buttons and various text to the drop-down menu lists.
Cherry Shortcodes Templater allows you to create and edit templates for shortcodes.
Cherry Ranking adds a rating system to the site.
Also Monstroid can be integrated with many popular plugins, for example, WooCommerce, YITH WooCommerce, Mailchimp, BuddyPress and bbPress. There is a compiler that allows you to compile and optimize CSS code. There is support for WPML and RTL, SEO, Google Analytics. The theme includes support for over 500 fonts from the Google Web Fonts service.
But as stated in the old ad, " this is not all ." The topic has 4 options for the listing structure, namely: Grid, Flat, Masonry and Masonry flat. They will allow the site to add individuality: “Grid” is the basic option; the flat is based on the same direction in design, which includes the rejection of gradients, shadows and luminosity; "Masonry" is well suited for portfolio sites (it is based on isotope). "Masonry flat" combines the previous styles and approach to the formation of the structure of the page.
The theme is created according to the principle of parent and child themes. The “Monstroid” package includes child themes of various subjects and designs - each theme is adapted for WooCommerce. Along with the themes are provided licensed images, which are used in designs, PSD-files and data (sample data) for the initial installation of the theme. Every month, 15 new child themes are released. Without exaggeration, this is one of the best Wordpress templates that was ever created in Templatemonster.
Also Monstroid allows you to customize not only the site itself, but also the WordPress admin area. With the help of the “White label” plugin, you can change the login page, dashboard and navigation in the admin panel. And in the presence of a function there is a backup of the theme settings and the entire site.
You can view the current version of the theme on the demo page . This template is paid, the price is $ 79.
