Responsive Layout
VideoBox features a fluid, responsive layout, so your pages will display perfectly across mobile and tablet devices. Videos and images scale seamlessly when resizing the browser window. Every detail of your website will look perfect and professional, regardless of what resolution or screen size visitors have.
Supports Video Embeds from 99% Video Sites
VideoBox theme was designed to support videos from almost any video site. We’ve tested it with videos from numerous popular video platforms, including: YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook Video, Instagram Video, DailyMotion, Brightcove, Amazon S3, and many others.
Automatic Video Thumbnails
When you embed videos from YouTube, Vimeo or DailyMotion the theme will automatically generate a thumbnail for your post, so you don’t have to add manually a Featured Image.
Automatic Video Thumbnails
Popular Videos Tab
On the front page you can display a tab with the most popular videos along with recent posts. The popular tab can be customized, so you can choose the method to determine which posts to display: the ones with the most views or the most commented. You can also choose the period of which posts should be displayed. For example: most popular posts from all time, from this year or from this week.
Widgetized Homepage
The front page includes multiple widget areas in which you can add any widgets you want, including the built-in ones in the theme with carousels or featured categories.
Carousel Widget
Videobox theme comes packaged with different custom widgets, including Carousel Widget, a highly customizable widget that can be placed in different locations, and it’s great to display posts from one or more categories.
This widget includes an option to select the aspect ratio of thumbnails, which makes it to work great with movie posters.
Multiple Header Layouts
Using the Theme Customizer you can easily change the position of elements in the the header, including the direction from which opens the Sidebar Panel. If you’re not a fan of the hamburger menu icon, you can easily disable it and display the menu in the header directly.
