Theme Review » Paper Cut
Papercut WordPress Theme
Papercut is a rustic looking news theme with a ton of great customization options and gorgeous alternating style sheets. There are so many different options to make this theme your own that it will definitely please you if you are looking for a simple and easy solution for your news themed site.
Unique Features of Papercut
There are several really unique features that Papercut has which aren’t available with the majority of other similar themes. Here are some of the most exciting features:
- One of the best features is the selection of great styles to choose from including red print, floral prints, newspaper, and the default. These all look pretty great and with a little tweaking can look really custom made.
- When it comes to news themes content is king. That’s why I really enjoyed the homepage content layout options. A grid structure allows you to make sure your content is always looking just how you want it.
- No third party widgets for the widgetized sidebar means no frustration trying to find one that works. Widgets really have never been easier to implement with the help of the fully widgetized sidebar included in Papercut.
Other Features, Standard Features of Woothemes
There are also all of the great standard features that are included with many of WooTheme packages. Some of these include the following:
- Creating thumbnails and featured images quickly you will love the Automatic Image Resizer.
- Integrated Theme Options for WordPress to customize color schemes and page layout will let you take the customization of your site even further and make it look exactly how you want it.
- Built-in gravatar support for comments and authors are always nice to have.
- Custom page templates for image gallery, sitemap, and archives seem like a must these days for all WordPress users.
- Integrated Banner Management scripts allow you to quickly and easily take advantage of displaying randomized ads throughout your site, which can be quite frustrating without this feature.
Why Use Papercut?
The Papercut theme provides a lot of functionality and flexibility if you are worried about whether or not you are going to be able to get it how you want it. The sites that you can create with this theme are of much better quality than many of the others available for news and magazine sites. This is mainly because of the great features that are included with the theme that allow you to have a ton of control over what the end product looks like.
If you are worried about standing out from the rest, this theme does a great job at making sure you can give your site a truly unique appearance. I would love for WooThemes to put out a theme I could review negatively, however with when it comes to Papercut this is definitely not the case. I can help myself by to recommend this theme to all people who are looking for a stylish, flexible news theme.
