Themify Infinite WordPress Theme GPL Overview:
Infinite is a WordPress theme, from Themify, that allows readers to view an infinite number of posts when scrolling down the page. It helps readers better engage with your site as the content continues to load endlessly.
This technique is widely seen in many popular editorial sites such as Vogue, Forbe, Mashable, DigitalTrends, 9to5mac, and many more. With the drag & drop Builder, you can design beautiful and unique article layouts (see sample post) that integrate infinite scrolling.
It also comes with many other features such as a sticky header, banner ad spots, slide-out widgets, and WooCommerce, which makes it an even more powerful theme with a beautiful and minimal design.
Themify Infinite Theme GPL Features:
Infinite Scroll & Banner Ads
The Infinite theme comes with an optional infinite scroll on both archive and single post view, and banner ads can be inserted in between every single post or after a certain number of posts within the archive view. For your reader’s convenience, Infinite displays a “back to top” button when the infinite scroll is active. It comes with a few grid layouts and a fullwidth layout option.
Responsive & Retina Ready
The Infinite theme is completely fluid and responsive, displaying consistently on all devices and resolutions.
Drag & Drop Builder
Design unique layouts for each article as well as magazine landing pages, with the easy-to-use drag & drop Builder (included in the theme), great for posts that tell your story, like the 2014 Year in Interactive Storytelling, Graphics, and Multimedia post on the New York Times.
Create optional mega menus to display recent posts, multi-column menus, and drop any widget in the menu (eg. Twitter, Recent Posts, WooCommerce Products, Tags, and any widget as you like).
Sticky Header
To give your reader an unobstructed view and to highlight your content, the sticky header is hidden when scrolling down, and it unveils when scrolling up.
Sticky Sidebar
The sidebar can also be sticky, so your banner ad is always visible in the viewing area.
Slide-out Widgets
It also comes with a slide-out widget panel (out of the box), which allows you to drop it into any widget.
Custom Share Buttons
Infinite includes a set of custom-designed share buttons because social sharing is very important in editorial sites. Your users can quickly and easily share stories, and get a sense of what’s trending.
WooCommerce Support
As a bonus, the Infinite theme comes with matching styles for WooCommerce, just in case you also wish to sell merchandise.
