- Requires: WordPress 3.3 +
- Version: 0.1

Hi, congratulations! It’s good seeing high quality themes so different. I almost didn’t find any theme with menus and header localized in left beside top. Many clubs I like just have header and menus on top. Thanks very much for Dotos and Good.
But, let me say. I click twice at download link… but it downloaded dotos beside good. ;)
Bye!
good theme :)
download link is wrong ;(
Hi Thiago and Markus. Download link is fixed. Sorry about that!
just love the design.Awesome..
Thank you for releasing this simple yet elegant theme design.
I was just curious, what exactly it means by “Jigoshop ready” ? and also, I would love to hear your thought on the layout design like this one that it doesn’t have margin: 0 auto; set to the container. Do you feel this is better in any way ?
Good comes with deep Jigoshop integration. Typically, you install Jigoshop with any theme and it looks like crap, not with Good though.
I prefer to set auto margins actually. Left aligned layouts usually look awkward on large screens.
Thank you for your answers.
Please keep up the great work, all the real designers in the world know that minimalism is the hardest kind to design, and you have proved your expertise in all your works here at devpress.
I like the theme however how do I get it to show images on the posts on the home page?? I can only see an image in a post when I go into the specific post page.
Hi David. The blog home page is meant to show excerpts only, therefore, no images are shown. If you want to change this:
If you want to do it the easy, but bad way then simply open the content.php file in the Good theme folder and do the last step.
I like it–very clean.
“Good” Like it’s name :)
I’m loving this theme! I installed it a few days ago, and have no complaints at all.
There are a few things in particular that I like about Good. In no particular order:
The first is the uncluttered, minimalist look that is still attractive. This is not easy to pull off, but I love this design.
The second is the excerpts on the home page. I always used to change this in years past to display excerpts. It has become too complicated to even find in many themes though, so I was excited to see excerpts by default on Good. I like the control this provides in tracking what pages people are actually reading. Full content on the homepage leaves it impossible to track accurately. This also make for really fast page loads.
The third thing is the lack of complicated theme options. Thank you! I hate complicated theme option menus.
Keep up the good work. I’m loving what you have here!
I love this theme! Great work, please keep it up. Is there any info on how to use the microformats for posts?
@Chad – It’s already integrated.
Hi, I’m just trying to find a startup theme for a simple personal blog and I was attracted by the mobile-friendly nature and simplicity of Good. Can I just ask though: what is the difference between contents and categories?
I wish to write on a wide range of subjects and have a clear structure for people to navigate. Do the categories have sub-categories or are the single/parent only?
Cheers,
Richard
Content can be filed under unlimited categories and tags. The requirement is it at least has to have one category attached to it. As for categories, you can have unlimited sub categories. That’s the way WordPress works, not the theme itself.
Particularly helpful (to me) when you build using the “hybrid core” – so I can get an understanding of how someone else leverages the core’s functionality in their own designs. Your designs are a bit more functionally “adventurous” – and as such the implementations are very instructive.
Thank-you, so much.
I notice when you resize the page, responsive design works, but when it is viewed in my iphone, the nav column is to the left, and the content is to the right. It does not respond to the iphone, iphone 3 anyway. So I am viewing a normal site on my iphone.
Hi Ricky. I updated the demo and download files. Could you test it one more time?
It works now, seems like it was working at one time. In any case it does respond. Holding the phone in portrait view, it loads right. Loading site in landscape, or turning to landscape, it stays in narrow portrait view. I have not checked out enough responsive design sites to know whether it should respond to landscape in an iphone. Thanks for the follow up.
