Can someone make this theme again?

  • stephaniefaith98 · Member ·

    I saw a website using the The Modularity Lite Theme and was very fascinated with the format and really REALLY wanted to use it. I just found out that that theme retired.

    I am extremely disappointed as I have been looking for a theme like this. Can someone tell me if WordPress.com will ever make a theme like this again or maybe consider making a theme like that again. I REALLY would like a theme like that because I LOVE the transparent background!!!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    That theme has been retired and themes are retired when they no longer support wordpress.com features. Therefore, the recommendation is to select another theme.

    I LOVE the transparent background

    I typed modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for Staff help. kathrynwp will be able to provide the name of themes that have that feature. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Please subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond and be patient while waiting.

    re: switching themes
    Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do some work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme and have done any CSS editing.

    Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.

    The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.

    Hi!

    There are a few themes that have that transparency ability. At least from what I sort of recall. :grin: Those are:

    https://wordpress.com/themes/afterlight/
    https://wordpress.com/themes/cyanotype/
    https://wordpress.com/themes/resonar/

    Using the filter you may be able to narrow down to a theme you may like even more though.

    Do keep in mind that if you do want to make any CSS changes you do need to have a premium account.

    Hi there! Looks like you’ve got some good recommendations up there, so you may be all set!

    I’m not sure what kind of site you’ll be using this theme on, so just wanted to pop in and add these two themes for your consideration in case one fits your needs:

    Harmonic – https://harmonicdemo.wordpress.com/
    Pique – https://piquedemo.wordpress.com/

    Also, if you decide to add the Premium Upgrade to your site, you’ll get access to Custom Design, and could use CSS to make a background image transparent on other themes too. (If you’re interested in the upgrade options, you can check those out here: https://wordpress.com/plans/.)

    If you decide to go that route, the folks in the CSS Customization forum may have some tips if needed: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization. :)
