Notes

This was one of the first themes I used for Wordpress and even all these years later, remains one of my favorites. This project is to maintain the code so it will work under and modern Wordpress, add in a few features, but keep to the clean, simplistic style.

Instructions:

To enable the dropcap feature, simply use the shortcode [dropcap][/dropcap] around the first letter or word of the paragraph.

To create an archives page like the one in our demo, create a new page called "Archives", and apply the archives template from the template drop-down menu in the Page Attributes sidebar.

Changelog:

• 1.0.2 - Fixed spacing on dropcap CSS.
• 1.0.1 - Fixed web fonts to correctly support accented characters
• 1.0 - Original release
