5 Reasons You Need The X Theme

X is not your grandmother’s WordPress theme, and we want to prove it to you. Here are the top 5 reasons you need to buy X today!

Stacks, Stacks, & More Stacks

Instead of being stuck with one design for your next project, X is a gift that keeps on giving. Built with our custom Stacks, X is the most versatile premium WordPress theme on the market today. Think of Stacks like full site designs built into the theme with each one giving a totally unique look and feel. There are currently three Stacks to chose from: Integrity, Renew, and Icon.

Point & Click

X is not only one of the most cutting edge themes on the market today, it’s incredibly easy to customize using the latest innovation from WordPress: the Theme Customizer. Instead of clicking through pages and pages of an admin panel only to have to click back and forth between the dashboard and your live site, with X you can change every aspect of your site while viewing it through the Customizer. See in real time how every color, layout, and pixel will look then click “Save” and you’re done. Customizing a theme has never been so easy.

Built By Experts

We weren’t satisfied with just making “another” WordPress theme…so we decided to do something different. We reached out to many of the top business and internet marketing minds of today to ask them about things like conversion, copywriting, layouts, squeeze pages, SEO, and more. X is the culmination of over a dozen of the smartest marketers on the planet who shared their expertise to build into this truly ultimate theme. You can learn more about the experts who contributed in our features section.

Future Proof

HTML5. CSS3. Fully Responsive, and more! X is not only built to be the most beautiful and powerful WordPress Theme of 2013, it is ready for the future. With a sharp development team that stays on the cutting edge of all that WordPress has to offer, you can rest assured that any site using X will be steps ahead of the pack employing the high-end functionality your site demands.

Simply The Best

Don’t just take our word for it. See for yourself. First time users frequently report how fun and easy it is to customize X exactly to their likings. Whether that’s boxed or full width, dark or light, multi colors or minimal, large fonts or small — X is like nothing you have ever seen!

[custom_headline type=”left” style=”margin-top: 45px;” level=”h2″ looks_like=”h5″ accent=”true”]Table of Contents & Icon List[/custom_headline]

[toc type=”left”] [toc_item title=”1. Introduction” page=”1″] [toc_item title=”2. More Information” page=”2″] [toc_item title=”3. Even More Information” page=”3″] [/toc]

The Table of Contents shortcode available in X offers up some incredible SEO benefits to your standard posts and pages. It’s easy enough to paginate individual posts or pages in WordPress using the <!--nextpage--> code in the editor, but it doesn’t provide any real engaging way for your visitors to know what they’re in for as they click through to the next post. That’s where the Table of Contents shortcode comes in.

Simply add this to each of your “pages” after your <!--nextpage--> breaks and input the titles of each section in your article. What you’re left with is a thoroughly engaging, easy to navigate post structure that has been proven to increase visitor retention and keep their attention (all things Google loves).

You can easily add the Table of Contents shortcode to the left or right of your post content, or have it go full width, which is great for placing at the bottom of your posts to remind visitors of what sections are left. Click through on the table of contents shortcode above to go through to the next page and see the shortcode in action!

[custom_headline type=”left” style=”margin-top: 45px;” level=”h2″ looks_like=”h5″ accent=”true”]Responsive Visibility, Pricing Tables, Content Bands, & Entry Share[/custom_headline]

With responsive visibility, you can easily show or hide various pieces of information with different groups of visitors viewing your site on a wide array of devices. Want to put a video on desktop but only text on tablet and mobile? No problem. Go ahead and resize your browser window to see how different messages are displayed below for different screen sizes (Note: We also used another one of our Shortcodes, Responsive Video, to make the video look great and respond for the desktop message).

[alert type=”muted” heading=”Desktop Message”]I’m only for the larger screens. Since there’s more room, I can take a little more space. Resize me!

This is a great way to showcase cool individual images in a quick and easy way. While writing your post: select the image format, add your featured image, then click Publish!

Beautiful Gallery Post

In this gallery post format, you can include a grouping of images to share with your visitors or customers. In addition you can type any text you want to show up below or leave this area blank to just show the images. You can even use the arrows to browse through the images without having to click through to the post.

Little Red Riding Hood (Embedded Video)

Looking to embed videos from YouTube, Vimeo, or any of the other popular video sites? No problem at all. Simply take the embed video code, add it to the video settings, and you’re done.

Audio Without Image

You can share your favorite audio files for all your visitors to listen to. You have the choice to set a featured image, however this is how things look when you have an audio post without one.

Have You Heard Of Them?

Link posts are great for sharing cool sites and online resources. All links open in a new window, and the title of your post shows above the link. As always the featured image is optional. Should you decide to use a featured image, you can upload any size (height and width), and X will take care of the rest.

Audio With Image

Sometimes there’s nothing more powerful than the perfect song and image to go with it. Here is an audio post with the optional featured image.
