Introducing Avirb Motion – A No-Image Attached, 3 Column WordPress Theme
by Avinash
I designed Avirb Motion, a no-image attached theme for WordPress users, because some people are really too lazy to design a logo and replace the default theme logo with their own brand. Because of the lack of images, the theme also saves your bandwidth.
Important: As soon as you activate the theme, go to the “Presentation >> Widget” tab and add the required widgets in the dynamic sidebars. If you don’t pick the widgets, your blog is gonna look like a desert!
Web Standards:
- Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict
- Valid CSS 3
Main Features:
- Free!
- Comes with no-image attached
- Top & bottom navigation bars
- 3 columns
- 2 widgets friendly sidebars
- Highlights author comments
- SEO friendly
- ability to generate search engine friendly titles
SidebarBlogroll is visible only @ the home page
Demo:

How to use?
- Once you’ve uploaded and activated the theme, go to the WordPress Theme Editor and replace the old email id with your own blog author email id in the ‘comments.php‘ file. The email id should be easily visible.
- Do adjust your META tags in the header.php file.
- Go to the Options >> Permalinks tab and add “/%category%/%postname%.html” in the ‘Custom Structure’ text box. Don’t forget to save the changes. Now the theme will automatically take care of your SEO-rich page titles.
Discovered a bug?
Though I haven’t encountered any bug in the theme, bug reports are highly appreciated. You can report about bugs via my contact form.
Feedbacks:
If you like this theme, please do let me know in your comments! If you need any help with the theme, feel free to ask. I’ll love to help if I’m not busy. :)
A Minor Request:
If you are going to use this theme on your blog, I’ll be pretty happy if you don’t remove the theme credit link from the theme footer. I spend hours designing the themes and when someone steals the themes, I feel pretty bad.
I wouldn’t request but some people just don’t understand..
UPDATE: I discovered a bug soon after writing this post. What a disaster! Apologizes to the first three people who downloaded the theme. I suggest to re-download the theme or if you’re lazy like me, just remove the “Theme Viewer” bit from the ‘sidebar.php‘ file.

I’ve also realized that a few people just won’t upgrade their WordPress powered blogs and that’s why I have purposefully designed my themes in a way that keeps the themes incomplete if you aren’t using WordPress 2.2+
Forcing users to do as you wish to do is not a nice thing. No one likes to be forced to follow someone else’s opinion. Advice is fine but force is imo bad.
AJ,
One is always free to use another theme, in that case. I didn’t force them to download and use the theme, neither did I write that my theme just won’t work if they don’t upgrade to the latest WordPress release. There isn’t really anything special in the theme that will not let people use it on old WP releases.
When I design a theme, I focus on widgets. A minor change in the sidebar makes the theme look incomplete if they don’t have a WordPress installation that supports widgets.
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! :) I’ve tried to respect your concern and removed the paragraph that might have offended other people like you.
Hrm.. I made a long comment which is now lost because of the captcha.
I’m too lazy to retype the whole thing but in a gist, I said that I was not offended but only pointed out that paragraph because forcing users to do something they would not want to does not work in the Internet world.
Users always can use another theme but the point of releasing your own theme is that users use this one than another. Forcing them to upgrade might not entice them enough especially when they have resisted despite improvements in security and features.
I meant no offence either and was just trying to help.
Thanks, AJ!
I’ll keep your suggestion in my mind when I design new themes.
