Uridimmu WordPress theme

Uridimmu is a parent theme developed for blogs, something to add a little spark to your creative process when writing.

This theme is a parent theme. What this means is that to customize it, you should be creating a child theme. Is it a theme framework? Some people might call it that. All you need to know is that it's a solid, yet flexible, starting point for any blog.

Features

Uridimmu is built from the rock-solid Hybrid Core theme framework, so it provides a great starting point with many useful features.

Per-post layouts that allow you to quickly change the layout of your site.
Post setting that allows you to add a custom stylesheet for individual posts.
A smart breadcrumb menu that handles tons of permalink setups.
Built-in pagination for your home, archive, and search pages.
Post thumbnails that work with WordPress' featured image functionality and provide extra features.
Multiple sidebars that you can customize however you like.
Dynamic global, post, and comment CSS classes.
Fully internationalized, so you can run the theme in any language.
Uses the built-in WordPress menu system. No need to hack your navigation into place.
Context-aware action and filter hooks, so you don't have to learn WordPress conditional tags.
Some of the most-used filter hooks are shortcode-ready and have accompanying shortcodes.
Theme settings page that allows you to add custom meta boxes and settings.
Ability to create custom templates for any post type in multiple ways.
Highly-configurable widgets that give you full control over their display.
Widget areas are content-aware, meaning that they only appear if they contain active widgets.
And much, much more!

Child themes

Since Uridimmu is a parent theme, you'll want to create a child theme if you plan on making any customizations. Don't know how to make a child theme? It's relatively simple. Just follow the below steps.

Create a theme folder in your /wp-content/themes directory called uridimmu-child.
Then, create a style.css file within your theme folder.
At the top of your style.css file, add the below information.

/**
 * Theme Name: Uridimmu Child
 * Theme URI: http://link-to-your-site.com
 * Description: Describe what your theme should be like.
 * Version: 0.1
 * Author: Your Name
 * Author URI: http://link-to-your-site.com
 * Tags: Add, Whatever, Tags, You, Want
 * Template: uridimmu
 */

This will give you a blank design. If you want to import the Uridimmu parent theme style, simply append this code after the above information:

@import url( '../uridimmu/style.css' );

/* Custom code goes below here. */

Note that child themes are now the officially-supported way of modifying themes in WordPress.

Notes

This theme has a very specific header design. The site title and description are limited to a width of 350px. This is to allow room for the menu to fit along the same line as the rest of the header. If your site has a long title, you might want to consider adding the following code to your child theme's style.css file and adjusting to suit your site's needs.

#branding {
	width: 350px;
	}
