EvangelicalMagazineTheme

Custom WordPress theme for the Evangelical Magazine website and is provided here as a help to other developers who are creating WordPress sites for print magazines.

• Browse by author, issue or section archive pages
• Individual author, issue, section and series pages
• Articles can have multiple authors and be part of multiple sections
• Integrates with Google Analytics API to calculate trending articles
• Integrates with Facebook API to display article likes
• Five widgets for Beacon Ads, Facebook Page Plugin, Popular Articles, and more

Support

No support is offered for this theme. It was not created with distribution in mind, has no user-configurable options and is unlikely to work out of the box in another context. It's published here purely as a help to other developers (particularly those working for non-profits) who need something similar and want to minimize development time.
