Free Press Newspaper is a clean, classic newspaper style theme. It is made for publishers who want a simple, structured layout for a news site, magazine, or editorial blog. The front page uses a scannable press-style feed, with featured images, headlines, dates, and excerpts presented in a clear card layout. On smaller screens, the design shifts into a stacked, centered view for easier mobile reading. The theme includes a flexible header with logo support, optional banner areas, widget sections for ads or promotions, a right-hand sidebar, a three-column footer, desktop dropdown menus, and an off-canvas mobile menu. Colors for key areas such as the header, navigation, blog feed, sidebar, buttons, and footer can be adjusted in the WordPress Customizer. Basic accessibility features are included.
