How the lead story works
This is the lead story. It´s the first thing that catches your visitor´s eyes. Always the most recent post from the “News” category (or whatever category you define) will be displayed.
You can add an image like this one by using custom fields. If you don´t know what custom fields are, take look at the WP-Codex here. Only the excerpt of the article will be printed here for space reasons. You can also use an optional excerpt like I did here to have more control of the layout if you like to. This works also for the middle column of the homepage.
Recent Posts
To show the recent posts is just one thing you can use this tabbed section for. There are many more. It´s up to your creativity.
About this Theme
This theme was inspired by the great magazine style themes of Brian Gardner and Darren Hoyt. I took those elements that I liked the most in every theme and combined them together in one single theme. The different page templates are inspired by Brian Gardners "Revolution" theme, the use of custom fields is something I first recognized at "Mimbo" by Darren Hoyt. The Tabbed section in this version 2.0 is done by using ui.tabs by Klaus Hartl (stilbuero.de).
The Name of the theme was inspired by the famous American jazz sax-player, Branford Marsalis. Although I´m German, I decided to present this theme in english in order to make it available for a greater audience. German version may follow.
This is my very first WP-Theme and if you detect any bugs, please let me know. If you use this theme, please let me also know and make sure the copyright remains as it is.
