Sidewalk is an elegant WordPress theme, carefully crafted with a focus on readability and great visitor experience. It was designed with personal blogs in mind, but it will suit the needs of any advanced professional blogs and simple news/magazine websites as well.
Full feature List
Responsive Design – Your website will look just as good on big screens as it will on tablets and mobile phones.
Advanced Theme Options Panel – Sidewalk comes with an advanced, easy to use theme options panel. You will setup your website in 5 minutes.
Branding – Unlimited Fonts & Colors – Sidewalk provides options for unlimited fonts and colors as well as options to upload your logo and icons, depending on your taste. Add your personal touch to this theme!
Unlimited Sidebars + Sticky Sidebars – You can add as many sidebars as you want. Then you can assign specific sidebar to any post, page or a category. Also, you can have sticky sidebars on each template which means that widgets will be always visible while you scroll through the website content.
4 Pagination Types (including infinite scroll) – You can have a classic “older posts / newer posts” navigation, numeric pagination, load posts with “more” button, or apply infinite scrolling.
Additional Custom Widgets – Alongside the standard WordPress widgets, we provide several custom widgets:
Paginated/multi-page posts – For those who use ads on their websites, we have created a very intuitive design for posts which are split into multiple pages. Boost your page views with ease!
Support for post views number – We provide support for Entry Views WordPress plugin which is used to count views for each post. We also provide smart options so your posts can be selected and ordered by number of views.
Related posts – Of course you could use one of many “related post” plugins, but we have provided a simple yet powerful solution for displaying related posts for a particular post which will get you covered in almost any case.
Built-in Theme Translator – If you want to modify or translate the text on you website, you can do it very easily in the theme options panel. Note that .po and .mo language files are provided if you prefer to use standard WordPress translation or multilingual website.
One Click Easy Updates – You can connect your website with the Envato official API and be notified about all upcoming updates through your admin dashboard. Every time we release a Sidewalk update, you can update this theme with a single click, just like you do for any other theme hosted on the official WordPress repository.

Social Sharing Integrated – Allow visitors to quickly share your posts on most popular social networks.
Post formats support – Besides standard posts, this theme supports video, audio, image and gallery post formats. Also, most WordPress common embedding features are supported so you can embed facebook statuses, tweets, instagram, soundcloud, youtube, vimeo…
