Featured Articles Display
This theme includes a very large featured articles display. Due to the size of the images, I have allowed for 2 images to be used per post. One for the various smaller-sized thumbnails, and one for the large featured thumbnail. The featured articles can be turned off entirely from within the theme’s options menu if you don’t want to use them. You can also choose how many featured articles to display. (between 1 and 5)
Automated Thumbnail Resizing
As usual, this theme utilizes timthumb.php to automatically resize all thumbnail images. Only one source image is require per post, unless the post is being featured.
Predefined Ad Spots
ColdStone comes with 2 predefined ad areas. You can add a single 468×60 banner add to the bottom of all post pages, and 2 125×125 banners to all pages. These ads are all managed from within the theme’s options menu.
7. 2.7 Compatibility
The theme comes compatible with 2.7, and includes threaded comments integration.
