A clean, elegant and reponsive WordPress Theme by Iceable Themes.


## Description

Silverclean Lite is a clean, elegant and responsive theme for WordPress. Perfect for various uses from personal blogging to small business website.

It features two widgetizable areas (sidebar and optional footer), a custom menu location for the navbar, custom logo and favicon and custom header image.

Silverclean Lite is the lite version of Silverclean Pro, which comes with many additional features and access to premium class pro support forum and can be found at https://www.iceablethemes.com

### Getting started with Silverclean Lite

* Once you activate the theme from your WordPress admin panel, you can visit the customizer (Appearance > Customize) to set your own logo, header image, background, menus etc.
* If you will be using a custom header image, you will find options to enable or disable it on your homepage, blog index pages, single post pages and individual pages.
* It is highly recommended to set a menu yourself, instead of relying on the default menu. Doing so will automatically activate the dropdown version of your menu in responsive mode.
* Footer widgets: The widgetizable footer is disabled by default. To activate it, simply go to Appearance > Widgets and drop some widgets in the "Footer" area, just like you would do for the sidebar. It is recommended to use 4 widgets in the footer, or no widgets at all to disable it.
* Additional documentation and free support forums can be found at https://www.iceablethemes.com under "support".
