We are excited to announce significant updates for three of our popular themes — Adventure, Collective and Profile.
The Adventure, Collective and Profile themes will now utilize the WordPress customizer to manage theme options instead of the previously used Options Framework. We plan to eventually convert all our themes to use the customizer for a few reasons:
The New Restaurant Theme Is “So Ono!”
Version 4 of the Restaurant Theme is oh so tasty! We attempted to keep a general essence of the previous version. Otherwise, the theme has been completely rebuilt — and it’s a vast improvement.
View the demo to see it in action. The design enhancements are extensive. They include a full width featured slideshow with parallax effects, CSS3 design accents, better handling of featured images and much more. Development improvements are extensive as well, including an updated custom post type for food menu items, use of the WordPress customizer for an insanely easy setup, integrated shortcodes, new page templates, automatic updates and much more!
Sink your teeth in to the latest version of the Restaurant Theme!
Our latest WordPress.org theme was created with Purpose! View the demo to see it in action. Purpose is a versatile, modern business theme. It features a professional and minimal design with a careful attention to detail.
Purpose features a full browser window slideshow that utilizes WordPress post formats for displaying slide content in different layouts. The home page contains several featured page sections that can be modified to your liking using featured images and shortcodes. In addition, the fixed header and navigation menu changes size and color upon scrolling.
Purpose is fully responsive and functions gorgeously on mobile devices. The theme uses the native WordPress customizer for managing options — making for an exceptionally simple and fluid theme setup process. It’s built upon our Seed Theme framework, and contains all the goodies like shortcodes, retina optimization, a filterable portfolio page template and more!
While the Purpose Theme can be used for any purpose — we recommend it’s a good one!
A new theme has joined our collection — Connect! Check out the demo to see our latest theme in action.
Connect was developed for sharing your professional profile with the world — It’s your virtual business card!
The minimal design and and utilization of the WordPress customizer allows for ultra fast setup and customization. The new theme includes unique features such as a vertically centered home page and page template, and a resume template. Connect is packed with social media options, and displays your latest Tweet on the home page. Like most of our themes, Connect is fully responsive, retina optimized, and contains a variety of useful page templates, shortcodes and theme options.
Connect can be as simple or as comprehensive as you like. It can be used as a single page site, or a full scale portfolio, resume and blog. We believe it’s the perfect solution for personal promotion.
We are excited to announce our 5th WordPress.com theme release — Collective!
We love working with the good folks at Automattic to bring our themes to the WordPress.com community! It’s been an invaluable, educational experience. It has further strengthened our theme design and development across the board — helping us create themes that are perfectly in line with WordPress standards.
Collective serves a unique niche for the WordPress.com community. The theme is designed to showcase people, projects and posts. Making it the perfect solution for portfolios, associations, and professional blogs with multiple contributors.
Collective features a wide, minimal design with a modern style. Display team members or artwork using the filterable portfolio page template. The theme is fully responsive for a fantastic mobile experience. In addition, Collective is packed with other page templates and features.
If you’re looking for the WordPress.org version of the theme for a self-hosted site, it’s available on our site here.
The Seed Theme is growing! With the release of WordPress 3.9, we have updated the Seed Theme to take full advantage of the WordPress theme customizer. We have removed the Options Framework in favor of adding all theme options to the customizer for a much more seamless user experience. In addition, several other enhancements have been made to the code, and minor updates to the design.
Moving forward, all new Organic Themes and major theme updates will utilize the powerful WordPress theme customizer!
We are making this transition because the customizer is supported by the WordPress core, and the power, speed and experience of managing a theme with the customizer is unsurpassed. Also, it is inline with the WordPress.com development standards, and will make for an easier transition of our WordPress.org themes to the WordPress.com marketplace.
This update adheres to our belief that WordPress is such a powerful framework by itself, there’s no need to pile additional frameworks on top of it. It brings us back to the basics of WordPress theme development — providing our customers with everything they need for a solid, “healthy” WordPress theme, and nothing they don’t.
Hola! We have been working with the good folks at WPML to certify several Organic Themes as fully compatible with their popular multilingual plugin. Our themes already include localization for easy translation to other languages. However, using the WPML plugin takes website translation to the next level — making it possible for to switch between multiple languages with the click of a button on your website.
We are pleased to announce that our Shop Theme is now compatible with the Exchange eCommerce plugin, in addition to the popular WooCommerce plugin.
Our friends at iThemes have built a fantastic new eCommerce solution for WordPress. Exchange is free to download. The plugin provides a simple interface for selling digital and physical goods. Several Add-Ons are currently available for Exchange, and there is a growing number of features and Add-Ons under development. We particularly like that the Stripe Add-On is available for free with Exchange — making it even easier to accept credit card payments for your online store.
We would like to encourage our customers to try Exchange with the Shop Theme. Check out their extensive video tutorials for getting started with this great new plugin!

Many of our customers are designers, developers and bloggers already familiar with the basics of creating a website. However, we also encounter a number of website virgins — creating a WordPress website for the first time. They are completely unfamiliar with the process.
For newcomers, there is an overwhelming amount of information surrounding the topic. Most of it is confusing rubbish. In reality, there are essentially 5 steps to creating a professional, self-hosted WordPress website. I’m going to dispel any myths about the difficulties of creating a website. So, let’s get started.
We have made impressive and extensive updates to both our Natural and Business Themes. We have rebuilt them from the ground up, using our new Seed Theme framework.
The latest version of the Natural Theme features several upgrades including a responsive framework, retina optimized design, font icons, shortcodes, woocommerce compatibility and much more. We have breathed new life in to the theme with an updated earthy, natural design that still retains a clean, modern and professional appearance. It’s an excellent solution for nature related and inspired businesses. Whether you’re selling herbal supplements or offering sailboat charters, the Natural Theme is sure to meet your needs.
The new Business Theme features the same awesome upgrades as the Natural Theme — and more! The design has been improved drastically. The previous design is but a faint memory lingering within the layout of the new theme, and we think that’s for the best. In addition to the improved design, responsive framework, retina optimization, shortcode integration and more — the Business Theme features custom post types for showcasing team members, job listings and client projects. It’s everything you need in a business website, wrapped up into a clean and corporate package.
