Just found a new WordPress theme that is perfectly suitable for a news site. The theme is called “The Beeb” and it is designed by StyleWP. The Beeb is a premium newspaper or magazine style WordPress theme and it comes with a comprehensive built-in theme control panel, which will help you in building a powerful news site on WordPress blogging platform. In fact it will give your site a look, much similar with the popular BBC news website. Take a look at the screenshot below.
The Beeb: Premium WordPress Theme
Got it? It is a clone theme of BBC news. It has featured sections, article blocks, news blocks, news ticker and many other features. The left sidebar displays news categories and static pages. The right sidebar displays latest news headlines and other featured articles. The good thing is that you can control all those features right from your blog control panel, without touching any theme codes. The built-in theme control panel comes with 132 different settings to spice up your WordPress powered news site.
Some features of “the Beeb” theme:
* Magazine/Newspaper style theme.
* Comprehensive theme control panel.
* Dynamic navigational area.
* Multiple plugin integration.
* RSS news ticker integration.
* Multiple built-in promotional blocks.
* Widgetised sidebars with 4 widget spots.
* Built-in Gravatar support.
* Integrated social links.
* Valid CSS coding.
* Compatible with all major browsers.
The Beeb theme is priced very reasonably. You can own it by paying just $35. With the valid theme license, you will get a PDF users guide, full source code, PSD files & fonts.

Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve been using a magazine theme from Solostream for over a year now, and I love it. Might be time for a change, though. If not now, soon.
That is a great look, I do like the BBC’s theme. Its friendlier than other news sites. I just changed my theme and I am having such a hard time with the images. I like it, but not the bugs. Anyhow, great price and I will consider it for my other blogs.
That is one awesome WordPress template. I am looking to move to WordPress for a brand blog so I will check it out, thanks!
Nice design. Looks professional.

That’s a really neat theme… I always wanted something like that… but maybe there’s something similar for free?

But this is not the one that you currently are using, right? Well, all the same, the WP themes are mostly good and really are pleasing for the eyes.
