Indeed, when designing a blogging theme there can be so many layouts floating in your mind, but you always have to limit yourself and choose only several styles. With Marcell, we decided to broaden our range of possible layouts up to 20, how’s that for a change?

Marcell includes 20 carefully designed homepage layouts from which you can choose the style for your own blog. In other words, we’ve given you even more variations of layout, so that you’re not limited by the default ones.

However, there’s definitely much more to it than layouts. Marcell is an extremely versatile theme that used Elementor as its main page builder. Our version of Elementor is spiced up with dozens of additional elements that make it possible to create the designs you want. Let’s examine Marcell in detail and see what features it brings to the table.

20+ Homepage Layouts

As mentioned earlier, one of the main advantages of Marcell, blogging and magazine WordPress theme, is its versatility of layouts and ready-made homepages. You can choose from 20+ demos that can be adjusted even further and tailored to your needs. Select your favorite options and control such elements as the position of sidebar, header or footer style, pagination, and much more.

Elementor-Based Functionality

When it comes to page builders, Elementor has definitely gained traction lately and moved up to the ranks of such players as WPBakery Builder or Divi. What’s more, we can definitely say that Elementor has surpassed its competitors in such areas as dependence on shortcodes and ease of use. If you disable Elementor in your theme, the content still stays where it was. Also, the builder is extremely easy to use and even a complete novice can learn how to build a page with Elementor.

Marcell incorporates the ease of use of Elementor and adds up an additional layer of elements that give you an edge. Now you can level up your page building skills with our set of custom elements such as blog post blocks, testimonials, services, slider, and much more.

Full WooCommerce Support

If selling products online is important for you, stay calm, this blogging and magazine WordPress theme has got you covered. The theme includes integration with WooCommerce, the leading e-commerce platform not only for WordPress but for e-commerce sites in general. If you look up the statistics, you’ll see that it powers more than 3 million e-commerce sites on the Internet. Impressive, huh?

WooCommerce includes a lot of features for a basic online store, but if you need more, you can also look up additional WooCommerce extensions that give you even more flexibility.

Instagram & MailChimp Ready

Another two popular extensions that Marcell includes are Instagram Feed and MailChimp newsletter subscription form. These two are especially important for blogs if you’re planning to engage with your audience and grow a list of subscribers. Both plugins are included for free.

You can easily connect your Instagram account and start displaying your latest photos on your website. As for MailChimp, you’re free to use their service without paying as long as your subscribers’ list remains under 2K.

Minimalist Posts Slider

To make your blog more engaging and fun, we’ve included a simple swipe slider that lets you display your featured articles in a slider format. You can display it in various places via a shortcode, and adjust several settings, such as which types of posts to show (category, tag, or ID), their order, etc.

Header & Footer Builder

Header & Footer Builder is a powerful tool that lets you customize the appearance of your header and footer areas or create new ones from scratch. Marcell, blogging, and magazine WordPress theme has a wide variety of header and footer customization options, hence your website will look unique.

Both header and footer are important areas of your website that are often left unnoticed. Luckily, with our builder, you can take full control of your header and footer and change how they appear on your site drastically. The great thing about it is that the builder uses the same interface as Elementor does. You can add any types of Elementor blocks, as well as an additional set of elements designed specifically for headers and footers. Use such components as the logo, widgets, iconed text, shopping cart, menu, currency switcher, and many more.

Lots of Blog Page Layouts

Marcell, blogging and magazine WordPress theme, is all about versatility, and it’s especially true when it comes to blog layouts. Although you can create layouts in Elementor using various elements and components, the theme also provides you with some flexible options for your blog page. You can choose from several blog styles such as classic, masonry, and grid. You can also customize those styles even further, selecting the position of the sidebar, pagination style, and more. What’s great is that all the changes are made in the WordPress Customizer, meaning you can preview everything you do in real-time.
