This theme was originally released several years ago, but my first crack at it had been a little simplistic. As experience grew, my desire to completely redo the theme grew, and now I have the chance to release version two. There is no need to click anywhere to see a demo – this site is already running Horizontal!
Horizontal WordPress Theme is a very specialised wordpress theme and it has some interesting features. Many variables are controllable from an admin backend, which you will find several articles on in this site.
Working On…
Future versions of this wordpress theme will be forthcoming, and right now, here are the points that are being worked on:
- child themes;
- jQuery-based version;
- bbPress version;
- menu;

Requirements
As far as I know, this requires WordPress 3.0+, and that’s it. Browsers should have javascript active for it to work properly, and it has been tested to destruction (reasonable destruction) on FireFox 3.6+, Opera 11+, Safari 5+ (Windows), IE8+, Chrome 8+.
Admin Control Panel
- Splash; set background image and colour;
- Login; override login page, set background, panel colour, round corners;
- Layout; padding and round corners for panels;
