Barley

News and blog publishers need a clear way to organize stories so visitors can find and read content comfortably. Barley provides a clean layout for technology coverage, breaking news, product reviews, lifestyle stories, and other editorial content. Its focus on readability gives articles and media room to stand out, making it a fit for sites built around regular publishing.

The theme includes BKNinja Composer, which lets you build a homepage by selecting, dragging, and dropping modules. Ajax-powered post loading can bring in additional posts without a page reload, while sticky sidebars keep widgets, ads, or navigation visible during scrolling. Its responsive design supports viewing across devices, with an option to control sidebar visibility.
