It is a WordPress theme that is currently used by websites that share viral content or magazine-style content, like Onedio, with 16 different beautiful, stylish, and simple demos.
Additionally, the creators of BoomBox mention that the theme is a community theme. So, what is a community theme? To explain it more easily, if we consider forums as an example of community sites, I can explain the community theme better. With BoomBox’s own Zombify plugin, it is possible for anyone to contribute content to the site, which is outside the logic of standard WordPress sites. In other words, anyone who registers on the site can share content and contribute to the site. Besides, you can close memberships and allow only selected people to share content by giving them membership or by receiving membership requests via a form.
Adding Content with Zombify Plugin
Stories: This is the standard post type and is used for writing articles.
Ranked List: This is a type of content that can be translated as a “voteable list” in Turkish. The items added to the content can be voted on and ranked. For example, if 10 items are added to the list, they can be voted ‘upvote’ or ‘downvote’ by readers to rank them.
Open List: This is a content type that can be translated as an open voting list in Turkish. Anyone can add an item to the voting. It is similar to the “everyone can add options” feature in Facebook groups and forums.
List: This is the classic content type used for listing. For example, it can be used to create content like ‘Top 10 WordPress Themes‘.
Countdown: This is a reverse listing. Instead of starting the list from the top, it starts from the bottom.
Poll: This is the classic survey content type. Anyone can vote.
Trivia Quiz: One of the most important content types in the theme, which we can translate as true/false questions. A question is asked, and the person reading the content answers it with true or false. A score is given based on the answers. For example, a content like ‘WordPress Knowledge Test‘ can be created, where a question like “Is WordPress free?” is asked, and answers like True/False can be added.
Personality Quiz: This is the classic content type that we can translate as “Personality Test.” You can encounter this type of content frequently on sites like Onedio. For example, it can be used to create content like “How Smart Are You Based on Your Answers?”.
Meme: This is the content type commonly known as “caps” in Turkey.
Image: This is the classic visual content type.
Audio: This is the classic audio content type.
Video: This is the classic video content type.
GIF: This is the classic GIF content type.
