OFFLINE MARKETING

Hi guys

I have to make a site for an offline business and wanted to know if you could recommend a really professional wordpress theme that has a side bar for an opt-in box.

Themeforest have great themes but none really have what I'm looking for. The site is being made for a very professional business and there will be loads of content on the site. The main thing is the opt-in box.

Thanks in advance!

Any theme with a side bar will do. Just use a text widget and paste in the optin form code and you are set.

I have only recently started using it (last three or four months) but I absolutely love Thesis.

The control you have is fantastic.

To the OP you can use Contact Form 7 and a sidebar widget to integrate it. Most themes have sidebar widgets. In Contact Form 7 you can change the length of each field so that they fit perfectly into the sidebar.

To Chaitanya it might only show in WordPress as one sidebar, but you can add more than one item into each sidebar. So if you have a contact form on your sidebar you can drag and drop a text widget right under it or above it. Then you can add links to Pages by dragging the pages widget, etc....

InkThemes has some that have the opt-in on the sidebar on the homepage.
Most themes allow you to add the widget to the sidebar on the inside pages.

Thesis is the best wordpress theme for me. You can place opt-in widget in sidebar, or anywhere.

I use thesis for all types of my online websites. I love it.

I've used many themes providers over the years and have two recommendations:

- Solostream

and stay away from Elegant Themes if possible. Too many updates, no functional themes etc.

Thanks

Elegant Themes works great. If you do minimal modifications or use child themes then you shouldn't have any problems with the updates. You don't have to do every update either. I'm glad they stay up to date on updating their themes. A lot of theme providers give you a theme and then never update them. At least they are doing what needs to be done to keep your site safe and up to date.

Thanks

If you're ok to go premium, you might check out Minimaliste, a theme I released a month ago:
