Few days back Google released its new social networking site Google+. Most of us who got the invitation to Google+ are already experiencing it. Some of us like it but others dislike it. From the WordPress developer point of view one thing that I like the most about this theme is its simple and clean layout. So today I am going to release a free WordPress theme WP Plus based on the layout of Google+.
WP Plus is designed exactly like the design of Google plus. It is a 3 column WordPress theme with two sidebars and one content area. One sidebar is on left and the other is on right.
The theme loads really fast because it don’t uses any graphics at all. WP Plus is compatible with WordPress Custom Menus and Custom Background. You can easily change the links that appear in the navigation bar from the dashboard page without editing the coding of the theme. You can also change the background from dashboard if required.
Features of WP Plus
- Based on Google+
- xHTML and CSS valid
- WordPress Custom Menus compatible
- WordPress Custom Background compatible
- Fixed width
- 3 Columns
- SEO Optimized
- Styled sticky post
- Fast loading
- No graphics at all
- Free of cost
Installation
- Download and extract the wp plus.zip file to your hard disk.
- Now upload the wp plus folder to ‘http://yourblogname.com/wp-content/themes/’ directory using any FTP program.
- Sign in to your WordPress admin panel and go to Appearance -> Themes.
- Activate the WP Plus theme from the themes page.

@Fernando
When you add new post, you can see a box to set featured image on the right side. You need to set featured image there to show it on homepage.
I have been looking for a clean, simple and fast loading theme. Made my day. Thx!
Great theme..very clean and sleek.. Thanks
Dude so nice design, it looks exactly has google +. Why not to enhance this theme for adsense ready theme?
@Simrandeep Singh
I have the same issue, featured images are set, but do not display in post or homepage. I really like this theme, but hope to have this fixed.
Hi again,
Setting “Featured Image” doesn’t work.
What is the width X height of the picture?
And what is the max width of a picture on any post?
Thank you in advance.
Very nice theme..Thanks!
great theme…Thanks
I got the same, there’s nothing has changed when I tried to set the featured image…
Your theme looks really great and fast but it’ll be bored with no thumbs at all… I just wanna have the look like your screenshot…
Hi,
For the thumbnails !
I have may be a solution,
put this code, on index.php
juste before
the code is:
‘alttext’, ‘title’ => ”));
} else {
echo ”; }
?>
Featured Image isn´t working. Nice theme but can´t use it without that feature.
Hey,
its nice theme and I’m using it on my website.
But can you tell me how to stop the limit of pages on home page?
because its really annoying and it has some problems with pluggable.php file under wp-includes.
How can I omit the limit of sentences there?
Good work.. I think you should probably decrypt the Google even.
Hi. theme is awesome, but I have the same problem. How can I repair the “featured image”. When I set it, it doesn´t appear on homesite. many thanks.
