Blue Giant is a quite min­im­al­ist Word­Press theme. The page lay­out fol­lows a clear and con­cise two column lay­out. There are two fully cus­tom­iz­able side­bars. One for the homepage and one for the other tem­plates.

Blue Giant is a clean, grid-based starter lay­out for design­ers to install and style to their own lik­ing. No wid­gets or plu­gins are neces­sary to use this theme. Simply down­load, unzip, upload to your theme dir­ect­ory and select Mod­ula Blue Giant in your Word­Press dashboard.

Get­ting things configured

1. In the “index.php” tem­plate, you will find a query_posts func­tion which refer to spe­cific cat­egory ID num­ber. You will need to change this (lines 15 and 16) to reflect the ID num­ber of your Fea­tured posts category.

2. Remem­ber to use the Word­Press more tag to show only an excerpt of your fea­tured post.
