Minimalista (An Ajax WordPress Template)

Minimalista is an Ajax WordPress Template, best suited for a Profesional and minimalist Portfolio.

The point of this template is to have a simple CMS like WordPress to make a minimalist “one page portfolio” without any page reloading… not to use every WordPress functions.

Features of the template :

• 
  Fully Ajax Powered:
  
  Browse all the website without any page reloading.
  
  Flash like intertace, with animation for every single action you have on the website (Hover, Content loading, Background transition, ...)
  


• Fullscreen layout:
  
  It will fit on any screen even if you resize the window
  


• UNIQUE FULLSCREEN SLIDER with squared transition…
  
  How it works? Select up to 3 pictures per post or page, and your background will fade with the best transition ever on a Fullscreen Slider.
  
  What happend if the user is browsing another page? It will load the new image and push them via AJAX to the Slider… You’ll never get something like other template.
  


• 
  Unlimited color set
  
  Select a color with a Color picker in the theme option… You’ll have an unlimited color choice!
  


• 
  Readable URL
  
  Even if the URL got a hash in it, you’ll be able to send the link to a specific post or page to twitter… The template will load everything like a charm.
  


• Use of @font-face instead of Cufon to improve speed loading of the template.


• 
  Multi-categories abilities
  
  Let your users choose every categories they want to view on your website… and they will browse more than categories at the same time!
  
  Or you just deactivate this funtionnality from the Theme Options to let them browse one categorie at a time.
  


• Fancybox to let them zoom into your beautiful work gallery!


• Lots of Theme Options… You’ll have the control of each template function without editing any code.


• Modern and minimalist look


• Easy to setup with detailed documentation


• Home button to reset the browsing without any reload page


• The pleasure to have an Ajax template with WordPress.

The template is optimized for all browsers in its latest version. The experimental fullscreen slider is compatible with all browsers listed in the item description on the right-hand column because of the use of CSS3 . It may be compatible with IE9 . It’s up to you to use this functionality. You can deactivate it from the theme options and use a normal Fade Background transition included in this template since the beginning.
