Ortem is a minimalistic design focused around a simple color picker, allowing your members to easily customize the colors of the layout by selecting from a preset array. The header area is large enough to accommodate for big logos and full width banners, and the navigation bar sticks to the top of the screen for easy access.
Theme Editor
All xenfocus themes come with the "Theme Editor" - an easy to use box which allows your members to customize the theme to their needs.
Color Picker
Ortem has a front-end color picker, allowing your members to choose their own preference from a predefined selection. Give it a try on the demo board!
Fixed header
When scrolled, the navigation and content area flows over the header.
"Chameleon" background effect
Your background color will change depending on the image which you have selected for your header, which helps to maintain a consistent color scheme.
Responsive theme
This theme will downscale for mobiles and tablets, providing an optimal viewing experience for all devices.
Holiday effects
If enabled, subtle "holiday effects" such as animated snow for Christmas, confetti for New Years, a floating ghost for Halloween or a beating heart for Valentines can be shown on your theme.
Countdown
Countdown to a local event such as a sport game, or a global event such as a product release using the built-in countdown timer.
Header settings
A background picker allows your members to select their own header image from a predefined selection.
Grid view for nodes
Place your forums into a grid layout with optional wallpapers for each. This feature can be toggled by members if they prefer the standard layout.
Social icons
By enabling the social icons feature, you can easily promote your social media websites to your forum members.
Guest message
If enabled, a stylish guest message prompts visitors to sign in or register a new account on your site.
Extensive logo options
Use HTML text, insert a slogan or simply use an image. All configurable via the theme settings.
