Shadowcat

News and magazine sites often need to present varied stories in a clear, organized layout. Shadowcat provides a clean design for publishing news, technology articles, and product reviews. Publishers can use BKNinja Composer to arrange homepage content with drag-and-drop modules, shaping the page around their editorial needs without writing code.

The theme includes category posts in dropdown mega menus and can load additional articles with Ajax, without refreshing the page. A sticky sidebar keeps widgets or calls to action visible as readers scroll. Shadowcat has responsive layouts and works with WooCommerce and bbPress, making it suited to media sites that also need those plugin capabilities.
