[Pro] Softpress Blog

Hi

Can someone tell me how the Softpress Blog page has been done. I like the simple clean look but want to integrate it completely with my site.

Thanks, Colin

The Softpress blog is made with Wordpress. Another way could be using Pulse Pro.

Hi . . . How does it integrate into Freeway?

I have used Wordpress before and styled it to have the same colouring/styles etc as a site made in Freeway but was quite different. I didn’t think you could make your own templates in Wordpress but I am very probably wrong about that!

The Softpress blog page has the same menu on it as the rest of the Softpress site and there seems to be no indication that it is a Wordpress page, ie. no accreditation or /wordpress in the title etc.

Just a quick note, I don’t believe the freeway blog is made with WordPress.

It looks to be a nice bit of Freeway work to me, just laid out in a classic WordPress style.

Very nice.

Al.

If you view source, you can see the name of the template they used/modified. I believe Tim Plumb coded this (apologies if it was someone else, it happened during his tenure as Creative Director of Softpress), and if my own dalliances with WP are any indication, he did so using a text editor and little else – the digital equivalent of bear skins and stone knives. The seamless integration with the Freeway-generated Expression Engine templates (the rest of the Softpress site runs on EE) is a testimony to his pixel-wrangling skill, not some (non-existent) Wordpress Action for Freeway.

Hi Walter,
Although I’ve put together WordPress themes in the past the Softpress blog was crafted by Chris Sowley. He did a wonderful job of making a Wordpress blog not look like every other Wordpress blog.
Regards,
Tim.
