The Blog

In terms of modifications we have yet to create something as flexible and dynamic as our mag.Press theme. So when we got requests from users to have the ability to link an eCommerce element to their blog we got stuck into mag.Press straight away.

Today we signed off a new design for a theme that I have been wanting to do for a while.

The one page eCommerce store.

The question for me has always been "what if I just wanted to sell one product?" For example, what if I had just written a book and wanted to sell it. Where are those theme templates and who is doing it well?

Before doing this design I did a bit of research and it turns out that there is not much out there, so I got down to business with the rest of the Obox team and the result is "Kiosk."

Setting up a Premium Theme is never an easy task. Obox themes can be difficult but we know we are not alone in this.

Having installed and setup themes many times in my life I can say without a doubt that no one has really got it right yet.

I can run through a few issues with you but for me the primary issue is that settings are not centralized. Set your home page here, do your menu's there, add your logo over there and set your widgets here.

Handmade has been a surprise success for Obox and since we are focussing on eCommerce for 2012 we decided it should be the first theme of the year to get WooCommerce compatibility.

The Handmade WordPress eCommerce Theme comes with all the great features of the standard theme but is now packed with the awesome functionality that Woocommerce offers.

We are kicking off the new year with a lovely theme called "Azione" (Action). Azione is a theme for video bloggers, with a clean and minimal design, giving you huge scope to turn the design into anything you like. It's also flexible and features a neat little home page slider effect.

As mentioned last week, February brings a slight price increase across all our themes options.

Obviously we can't just increase the prices without offering you something more so I'd like to explain the extra sauce that you will get with an Obox Theme purchase.

Happy New Year :) we hope you had an awesome holiday over December and that you're nicely recharged!

We anticipate a big year for WordPress and are making the neccessary moves at Obox to give you the best experience possible.

To celebrate the festive season we have decided to go a slightly different route to our normal "x-for-1 for $100" special. Instead, we have created a Christmas Bundle!
