Technical Details

Everything you need to know about our site templates from a technical perspective:

  • WordPress Platform

    All of our sites are built using the WordPress platform. WordPress is the most commonly used Content Management System in the world and powers approximately 30% of all websites. It is particularly powerful for creating sites that incorporate a blog.

  • Fully Responsive

    All of ADS's templates are fully responsive. This simply means the layout "responds" to the type of device you are using to browse the site, so they will look great on all devices, from widescreen laptops to smartphones.

  • Ecommerce Enabled

    Ecommerce functionality can be added to all of our templates, using WooCommerce. (See The Victorian Bride demo site for an example).

  • Design Options

    Each theme comes with various design options that allow you to truly make your site your own. These include full-width or boxed designs, color scheme, and more.
