ACMS WordPress Theme

screenshot.pngACMS (not a blog) is a theme that turns WordPress into a Content Management System.

Blog posts become news items
Blog pages become CMS pages
The front page can be configured with static HTML content.

Use it for anything you might use a CMS for - sell a product, make a portal, etc…

It’s a fixed-width, 3 column theme, compatible with WP 2.2. and has been tested on Firefox 1.5, 2.0, Internet Explorer 6 and Opera 9.
This theme is not sponsored, and is released under the terms of GPL v2

Release notes:

WordPress can be configured to display a static page as its front page - ACMS allows the index page to have a different layout from other pages and display latest posts as news items.

(Sidebar) Widgets are available and optional - any other sitewide content may be added easily to the left sidebar.

Comments are removed from posts - (so no comment spam then…)

Categories/Archives are implemented - if you want to switch back to a standard blog, they’re all still there.

Ping, for example, Technorati and news items will appear exactly as if blog posts.

Theme is internationalized for language where possible.

mod_rewrite permalinks - this has been tested with the common combinations, but there may some that don’t play properly.

Consider this a beta - it’s best practice to take a database copy before you install any new WordPress theme on a working site. Use at your own cognisance of the above.

Feedback is welcomed…

    @Adam
    Er… think I said why in the first line of the release notes.

    @Albright
    No, not so far, did think of this but not trivial to programme - can use a widget…

    Can commenting be re-implemented quite easily or does it require some tweaking?
