Theme Features

Read Me First section

Here you can find quick links to most important sites like:

• support
• review
• author page
• components

Widgets

Theme has only one widgets area in right sidebar

Menu

This theme uses wp_nav_menu() in nine locations.

• First location: top menu has only one level depth.

• Two locations: before-widget ang aftre-widget intended to Social Menu. Social media links converted to icons.

• Six locations in footer as footers mega menu. If found Social media link, social icon is added.

Custom Excerpt Length section

By default the excerpt length is set to return 55 words. Now you can change it in Customizer by moving the slider. Available range is from 1 to 200 but you can set it precisely by input field below.

This functionality works only for posts with empty excerpt metabox (even if you used tag) and only with the_excerpt function, so it doesn't work for teaser when the_content() function is used.

Excerpt length filter is assigned to archive page as well.
