Themes that are Totally WordPress Compatible
Other themes that WordPress feels are totally compatible with that blogging platform.
In past articles, Linda mentioned that she uses the Hybrid Theme for WordPress. In this article, she points to other themes that WordPress feels are totally compatible with that blogging platform.
Conclusion
I have not tried one theme on this list, so using these themes is a risk you will shoulder. One thing I would do before downloading a theme – even if it is recommended by WP – is to read the comments left by other users if they are available to peruse. By reading comments by other users of a given theme, you might know in advance what problems to look for and whether or not those issues were immediately resolved.
Think ahead when you download a theme for use as well. While individuals might offer a great theme, think about their history in the business and whether or not they will stay on board to offer support in the future. Companies, on the other hand, plan to stick around...so they might provide a better option for support. Frankly, from my perspective, it's all a gamble.
In the end, it would behove you to learn how to create CSS files, how to create a child theme and how to stay on top of WP updates so you can keep your blog user-friendly and spam-attack defensive. After all that is said, simply download and have fun!
