The Professional WordPress Theme

Meet The Professional. An elegant, minimal, flexible and responsive WordPress theme that comes in 4 delicious flavors – default, corporate, girly and minimal. The theme was crafted with portfolio/blog sites in mind so you can showcase your work online in an elegant and easy fashion. Setting up an online portfolio shouldn’t be difficult and the Professional is here to help. Simply create your portfolio items via the custom post type (you can select with or without a sidebar, featured image, video or slider portfolio post styles) and then use the built-in shortcode to add your items to the homepage or pretty much any other page. And of course you can create category and tag archives for your portfolio and even create unlimited “filterable” portfolios (using categories or tags or a mix of both). What are you waiting for? Get The Professional WordPress theme today!

The portfolio shortcode is so handy – You can create masonry portfolios, non masonry portfolios, with descriptions, without descriptions, with hover overlay, without hover overlay, with lightbox only, with icon overlays, with read more buttons, without read more buttons, with filters by category, filters by tags, filters by category and tag, with pagination, without pagination, 1,2,3,4 columns..etc. So many options!

4 Skins just $40 – $10 A Skin, What A Steal!

Professional Skin: This is the default skin within the theme. A dark header and footer, bright yellow highlights, bold headings, and large paddings create a strong impact. Perfect for designers, developers, and other creatives the Professional Skin is a great option.

Corporate Skin: Great for small businesses, sole proprietors, and entrepreneurs the Corporate Skin is all business. Neutral blues and reds are an impressive and patriotic color scheme. Functional buttons, linear borders, and typography make for a great first impression with clientele.

Girly Skin: Designed with feminine blogs and portfolios in mind, the Girly Skin is practically made from sugar and spice. Soft teal, pink and tan colors are prevalent. Cute touches such as stitching details, ribbon sidebar headings, and color coordinated social icons put this skin over the top.

Minimal Skin: Clean and simple, this theme skin was made for those who want a no frills design. A classic centered logo and navigation are straightforward, as are the links, social icons, borders and other design elements throughout the Minimal Skin.

Other Reasons You’ll Want This Theme

Responsive: A key an necessary feature, the Professional is responsive. Tested in major browsers and on iOS devices, this theme is sure to please you and your readers. Test out the responsiveness by resizing your browser, but the best way is to pull out your phone or tablet and see for yourself.

Portfolio Post Type Plugin: The custom post type for the Portfolio is managed via a plugin automatically activated when you install the theme. This way you can keep all your content if you ever switch to another theme and makes it even easier and more fun to keep using WPExplorer themes in the future.

Powerful Portfolio: The Professional’s portfolio supports image, image sliders, external URLs, and videos (lightbox and video lightbox supported). You can add sidebars to individual posts, or not. It’s easy to customize your portfolio posts using the Post Options when you add each item. It’s also incredibly easy to insert your portfolios on any page using the portfolio shortcode/insert button in the post editor!

Symple Shortcodes: The theme of course supports the Symple WordPress Shortcodes plugin (with a little custom styling), which has tons of great features like pricing tables, columns, tabs, toggles, Google map, heading, dividers, buttons, boxes, and more!

Symple Slider: The homepage features a super simply custom post type driven featured slider. The plugin automatically activates when you install the theme, and adds a “Slides” tab to your your dashboard menu and theme options panel. Then adding slides is as easy as adding any other post. Most skins are setup to use the slider for images, but the Corporate skin is laid out like a content slider so you can take advantage and add text/shortcodes/images or whatever else you want in there.
