X The Theme

Create at unprecedented speed with over 100 fully customizable prefab elements, encompassing Layout Elements, Standard Elements, Dynamic Elements, and Woo Elements. And that’s just the start. Design your own fully custom, reusable elements from the ground up using Components and Parameters (more details on that shortly).

Dynamic Content enables you to easily build intricate configurations capable of processing data from various sources on your WordPress site. This includes data such as post meta and user meta, along with information from Advanced Custom Fields and other plugins. With the power of Loopers, you can efficiently loop through your data, making it simple to display and manipulate complex data sets on your website. This functionality allows for the creation of highly dynamic and responsive web pages that can adapt to your content’s specific needs.

This becomes even more exciting when you consider that you can integrate third-party data using the new External REST API, a feature exclusive to Cornerstone. This means you can fetch and utilize data from external sources, seamlessly incorporating it into your WordPress site. Whether it’s data from a custom service, another platform, or any other external source, the External REST API allows you to dynamically connect and display this information, greatly expanding the potential and flexibility of your web projects.

When done well, effects can bring your design to life and enhance the user experience. With Cornerstone’s Element-level Effects Module, you can create compound effects by adding filters, transforms, interactions, positional effects, masks, and even layer blending. All of this is done natively, giving you the tools to make your designs more engaging and dynamic.

The next level of native site building is right at your fingertips. Components enable you to create reusable content that can be managed in one place, while Parameters allow you to develop your own design systems. This powerful combination ensures consistency and efficiency across your projects, making it easier than ever to maintain and update your site.

X – Overview

Stacks – X includes multiple unique designs within one powerful WordPress theme, and we refer to these designs as “Stacks.” Currently, there are four Stacks available in X. It’s like buying one theme and continually gaining access to new designs! We have created several unique demos, so be sure to check them all out.

Extensions – Easily build upon the solid foundation X has already provided with an impressive lineup of additional plugins. Within the X ecosystem, Extensions consist of plugins created by our team to work seamlessly with X, as well as third-party plugins from developers we’ve partnered with to bring you exceptional features tightly integrated into the theme. This approach keeps X lean for users who don’t need certain features while being as efficient as possible for those who do! Be sure to check out the full list of our Extensions for more information on these incredible features, all included for free with each unique purchase. Additionally, refer to our FAQ for details on how the licensing works.

Experts – X was developed based on the input of industry-leading experts. We consulted numerous professionals to understand what features they wanted to see in a theme from an SEO, design, and feature-set perspective, and we incorporated their suggestions directly into the theme. Forget the marketing speak—X truly delivers on what it promises.

Theme Options Panel – Staying on the cutting edge of WordPress development has been our goal from the start. To achieve this, we avoided using cumbersome additional admin panels and instead opted for a powerful, recently rebuilt theme options panel. With this setup, you can preview all the changes you make to your site live, without needing to switch windows or refresh the browser. You can also search for exactly what you need.

Responsive – In today’s mobile world, it’s absolutely essential that your website is accessible on all devices. We wanted to take responsive design a step further. Instead of using a design that merely changes at fixed breakpoints, we chose a completely fluid, percentage-based design that looks great on all screen sizes, even the “in-between” ones. This approach ensures that your site looks fabulous on any device, whether it’s a 27” iMac, an 11” netbook, a Kindle Fire, an Android phone, or anything else you can think of. This fluidity provides a seamless and optimal user experience across all platforms.

Page Builder – X customers have access to Cornerstone’s incredible page builder, the most advanced in all of WordPress.

Typography – The web is first and foremost a typographic medium. Because of this, we wanted to ensure that the level of control over your site’s typography is unparalleled by any other WordPress theme on the market. We’ve included over 600 free Google Fonts for you to use, and we’ve made sure that all respective weights of each font are dynamically loaded. This provides you with more choices and better overall site performance. With X’s near endless typographic options, you can adjust sizes, colors, letter spacing, capitalization, and so much more.

Elements – The bread and butter of any good theme. Elements enable you to become a power user and take your site to new heights. However, you’re only as good as the tools provided by your theme. With X, we’ve built over 40 stellar Elements, many of which are truly one-of-a-kind, allowing you to create virtually any layout you can imagine. All of them are available via Cornerstone for easy maintenance. Included Elements are as follows:
