I’m very pleased to announce that the latest Upstart Blogger Wordpress theme, Stripped, is now online and ready for download. Stripped is a minimalist Wordpress theme that will be ideal for any content focussed blog. Single column, readable text, minimal navigation and no clutter to get between the reader and the content.
The code underneath the design is a little rough around the edges, but it is stable and useable and should be very easy to understand since it is based on a paired down version of Sandbox. There are no options, you just enter your blog name and tag line as usual and everything else is taken care of.
Click here to download the Stripped Wordpress theme, or here for a live demo.
All feedback is greatly appreciated. The theme has been tested running on Wordpress 2.3 in Safari, Camino and Firefox. If you decide to use Stripped on your blog please leave a comment so I can take a look at it in the wild.
Looks very clean. Good job.
Hi! im currently using the template you designed for wordpress and i was wondering if there was a code in there that might be preventing my page from displaying a full text of a single post. i changed the settings in wordpress to single post and to display in full text but it seems like it still displays it only in summary.. is there any way you can help me? thanks!
Love it. Cuts through all the crap.
Ashley — I love it. The typography is wonderful. Ultimately, it boils down to the fact that I no longer have young pup eyes and any design that makes reading on the web easier, is grand.
Awesome theme! I love the typography. I was a little iffy about having the post titles come after the excerpts and the date but it actually works. Delivering content without distractions is this theme’s main goal, so the title thing makes perfect sense. Great work!
Nice! I LOVE minimalist themes. Keep up the great work!
Stripped Question(s):
I want to get rid of the big header. I’m a PHP/CSS NOOB, and I’m wondering where that is?
This theme is EXACTLY what I’m looking for and I imagine I’ll be using it on various sites.
really really nice theme!
thanks
p.s. i’m _really_ serious. i’ve been looking for a while. great job!
Unfortunately, the stripped theme does not show up the next page or the previous page on the home page (even in your demo). What is wrong with it?
I have even seen a problem in the title: It is not xhtml valid because the link is not in a right manner (either you take out the link or you need to open the link correctly and not inside the div tag).
I’ve modded it quite a bit, but on the base, I’m using Stripped at www.robblatt.com
Hi — Beautiful theme. I am using it for my portfolio site. I’m just wondering if anyone has discovered why the next and previous links don’t show up on the homepage with this theme.
I tried to troubleshoot, but can’t figure it out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
It’s excellent. Thanks a lot!
Raquel - I’m having the same issue. Has anyone else figured out the issue with the Previous and Next links?
I didn’t figure it out how to change it. Anyways I’m not using this theme anymore because my texts are way too long for this big font size.
Hey,
Love at first sight with Stripped :D.
An amazingly simple and minimalistic theme.
Am customizing it for my own use at http://biofont.com/.
I chanced upon the same problem with the navigation and I managed to fix it. *fingers crossed*
To enable navigation,
change the following code in the style.css
.home .navigation {
display:none;
}
to
.home .navigation {
}
i.e. remove the “display : none” tag
and Voila! navigation links are now shown on the home page
I am trying out quik setup of Stripped and need help with understanding how to
a) make body font of posts or pages bigger
b) how to add hspace to an align=left graphic at beginning of post or page.
I have changed the theme on my site for the impending launch. I am however customizing Stripped further.
Here’s a screenshot of the progress, I have made so far

Some things which are pending are a navigation bar on the top (iconized) and iconizing the next/previous links.
Hope u guys like the icons which I am using
Once the site is launched I plan to finalize my mod and also release it to the public.
PS: I would greatly appreciate any feedback you can give me. A comment on this thread would be fine.
Another beautiful theme. Thank you. Let’s see if I can get it to work on my installation…
Great theme
keep it up

hi there, and congratulations on one of the great themes out there.
it’s a stunning theme, and i’ve listed it on www.wordpresstheme.me (currently in the category “uber white themes”…but i’m thinking it belongs more in “unique free themes”.
wordpresstheme.me is a site for recommending just high quality free themes, stripped puts all the rest there in good company.
cheers
Hi! I’m using Stripped for my blog and I really like it. But I’d like to remove the date displayed under each post on the main page. How can I do that?
Thanks!
