Child themes for Story


Latest Customer Reviews

Code Quality By Diogopm, 2017-07-11 via themeforest.net This theme is not aimed at photographers. Porfolio pages show a resized picture instead of the uploaded original!
I thought this was a bug, since it's stupid that a theme created for photographers will show the incorrect size (damaging the quality) of images. But no, this was intended!
Worst part is, after one month talking back and forth to costumer support they offer a fix that once you open an image, it takes 5 seconds to change the quality!
This is so awful, because if it was created with photography and photos in mind, why would you purposely damage the quality of our work? Awful!
Author response
Hi there,
It looks like there has been a misunderstanding - the theme has an option to disable the image resizing in the portfolio slider (Story Options -> Slider Settings -> Portfolio Slider section). Image resizing is enabled by default, since sometimes people upload very large images and it can take a long time to load them, however you can disable this option (or adjust the default resize size) if you like to. We have also included more detailed instructions in your ticket, please feel free to continue the discussion in there if you have any further questions.

Theme Details

Story is a sharp, modern and clean WordPress theme. The theme is very flexible and it comes with some awesome features, such as a fullscreen slider, custom headers and custom background sections, which make it perfect for showcasing and selling your work and products. Story WordPress theme is a multi-purpose theme that can be used for any type of website, such as creative portfolio, photography, products, corporate and business sites. With the combination of responsive design and parallax animations, this theme will provide an optimal viewing experience and will make your website look great on across wide range of devices and screen sizes.

Fullscreen slider

The theme features a fullscreen slider that comes with lots of customization options, the slider comes with three main layout types:

  • Background image/solid color layout: Short text with various options for text location and options to change all the main typography settings such as font family, font size, text color, etc.
  • Two-boxes layout ( text + image ): available layout options are horizontal (left text, right image and left image, right text) and vertical (top text, bottom image and top image, bottom text). It also includes options to change all the main typography settings such as font family, font size, text color, etc.
  • Horizontal image slider – displays multiple images in a horizontal slider, supports bulk image upload.
  • Background video slide – displays an HTML video background to the slide (works with MP4, WebM and Ogg file formats)

You can set the layout type per slide and mix all the different layouts into one page slider. The slider also supports deeplinking, so you can link to a specific slide and an autoplay functionality – you can see it in action here.


Story includes a flexible AJAX portfolio gallery with awesome jQuery animations and effects, which comes with lots of options available for its items.

The gallery also provides an AJAX pagination and category filter for a better items organisation.

For each gallery item you have the option to select one of the following click actions:

  • Dynamically open an image slider (full-width or two-column layout) with a nice jQuery animation, containing additional images attached to the item (bulk upload – you can upload lots of images with a single click).
  • Open an image lightbox as image gallery attached to the item (images can be uploaded in bulk)
  • Play video – full-width or two-column layout
  • Open the item content in a new page
  • Open a custom link in a new page

Also there are lots of options the gallery provides, some of them are:

  • Masonry Layout Support
  • Option to choose between two, three and four column layout
  • Unlimited gallery pages – you can create as many galleries as you need with different image sets
  • Partial Loading in slider – loads images in background on portions for faster performance. Works well with large amount of images attached to a single item.
  • Social Sharing – the slider view of the gallery provide sharing options, so you can easily share your items images on the most popular social networks – Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest and LinkedIn.
  • Dynamic AJAX category filter (can be enabled/disabled per page)
  • AJAX pagination which is great for large number of items
  • Options to link to a specific page/category of the gallery


Custom Header Backgrounds

Story supports different background settings for the different pages. For each page header you can:


Responsive Design

The theme is responsive, so that it fits and looks great on different size of devices – desktop, mobile phones and tablets. Also, the main gallery slider supports finger gestures, so it is very easy to navigate between the images on touch devices.


Unlimited Color Options

The theme includes options to change all the main theme colors, such as header, main content, sidebar and footer background and text colors, so you can easily build your custom skin with your favorite colors. All the color settings are included in the Theme Customizer section, so that you can live preview the color changing. Here are some examples of what you can achieve:


Advanced Content Editor Buttons

The theme includes an unique set of buttons that allows you to directly insert the various elements into your editor area. In this way you can easily build full-width background sections with custom elements and style settings. Some of the elements that you can easily add with the advanced editor are:


Parallax Slider and Sections

The theme implements parallax effects in different elements and sections, such as:

  • Content slider background image
  • Full-width sections background images
  • Servcies boxes animations

The parallax functionality can be enabled/disabled for each individual section/item.


One-click demo import

Story comes with a one-click demo import option that allows you to easily import all of the main data, elements and styles from the theme demos (main demo and all of the mini demos). Please note that the demos are under constant development, so sometimes there might be some minor differences in the imported data.


Font Management

The theme provides a friendly user interface to implement the default web-safe fonts and Google API Fonts. We have created a section where you can enable as many fonts as you like just by adding the URL the Google API provides. You can see some examples here


Retina Display Optimizations

We have included retina display optimizations for all the main graphics used in the theme, so they look sharp on retina displays.


2 Image Sliders Included (unlimited usage)

Story also includes three different sliders that can be included on different pages:

  • Content Slider – in each slide you can set:
    • a background image and set and set a different opacity to it
