Serpent - Responsive Social Network Theme

Responsive premium WordPress theme

Thank you for choosing CosmoThemes and purchasing one of our Premium WordPress Themes – your choice is greatly appreciated! Serpent is a responsive social network WordPress theme build to power sites with multiple users and provide community content sharing.

Responsive theme

Serpent is a responsive theme. It uses a framework that permits the site to be accessed on all mobile devices, including iPad and Android powered tablets. Mobile-phone layout is also included. You can now view your site even on display resolutions as 320×480 wide.

”Like” user-submitted posts

Enable the “Like” feature to let users easily access faved posts and raise their rating. When a certain post reaches the limit of 50 likes it will become hot. The like limit can be changed from backend while the number of likes for all posts can be randomly generated.

Built-in lightbox login and registration

Let your users login or register without leaving the page. The built-in eye-candy AJAX form will pop-up when trying to enter site’s prohibited areas, such as “Add a new post” or “View NSFW posts”. Users can also register/login to your site using their Facebook accounts.

Navigate using keyboard keys

Use keyboard’s J, K, L, C, V and R keys for different actions on your site: scroll to next post, scroll to previous post, love a post, comment post, view post or display a random post. These keys combination are now working on post page as well.

Front end submitting

Let your registered users upload posts directly from front-end. The front-end submitting permits users to choose their post format: image, video, audio, text and attachment. Each and every single format can be enabled or disabled.

User profile page

Every registered user can edit his profile from his personal account page which now offers avatar upload, password change and other personal data edit.

Mainpage format

Set your blog mainpage to display either Featured or Fresh posts, or both. Mainpage is also available as a static page.

Tooltip helpers

Ever wondered how to tell your users of a specific feature or important message on your site? You can now achieve this with theme’s built-in tooltip manager. You can use it on every single page on your site being able to add an infinite number of such hints.

Human time

Enable human-time to let users know when the post was added. Switch back to the native WordPress time format from settings.

Facebook and default comments

You can either enable the default comment system or opt for the Facebook comments. Add your Facebook application ID so you can moderate comments.

Multiple slide-shows

You can create an unlimited number of slideshows and define different ones for desired pages or posts.

Sidebars and widgets

The site uses unlimited sidebars for you to be able to insert as many widgets as you need to get the most of your theme: Categories with icons, Content tabber (hot posts, new, comments, tags), Flickr, Twitter, Latest posts, Social media, Top authors, Submit content. Select a different layout for each of your posts: containing a left sidebar, a right sidebar or displayed full-width.

Social media ready

All posts have built-in social-media share buttons that users can click and promote any content of your web-site. Enable or Disable them for any particular post or page.

Powerful backend

Serpent comes with a revised powerful back-end to let you control all sites option without the need to hack or customize your own features.

Other features

The theme also uses built-in breadcrumbs, dropdown menus, image resizing, 100+ shortcodes, built-in related posts and social-media sharing, and comes with an extensive documentation to help you get started.
