About Mediumish WordPress – Theme like Medium

Setting up a blog of long articles with a generic theme often ends the same way: cramped typography, columns competing with the text, sidebars full of noise and readers who leave halfway through the second paragraph. Mediumish starts from a different idea: borrow the sobriety of Medium so the only thing that stands out is what you write.

Writing well is not enough if reading is hard

People who publish long texts often think their problem is getting visits. Many times the problem is what happens after the click: if the text reads badly on mobile, the reader leaves and does not come back. Mediumish puts its effort into reading: a clear font hierarchy, consistent spacing and comfortable line heights on any screen. It is a theme for those who want the content to come first, not the design.

What Mediumish does for the reader of your articles

  • Reading time on every post, so the reader knows how long it will take before starting.
  • Sharing buttons built into the article layout.
  • Category navigation with clear category pages, so someone who finishes a text finds similar ones.
  • Responsive design with navigation made for touch screens.

A blog with several bylines: author profiles and archives

If several people publish, the theme includes author pages, bios and an individual archive for each contributor. That suits a small magazine or a blog with guests, where each byline needs its own space. There is also a specific layout for the author page and another for the contributors page.

Different ways to show your posts

For the homepage and listings, Mediumish offers several post styles: two columns with the image on the left, three columns with a highlighted post on the left and four columns with the image on top. There is also a recent posts slider, related posts, posts by category blocks and a category list. That lets you decide whether your homepage looks more like a personal journal or a magazine with sections.

Customization is limited to colors and layout

What you do get is standard WordPress: custom menus, widget areas and color and layout options in the customizer. Here is what to be clear about before buying:

  • Already solved: comfortable reading, authors, categories, reading time, social sharing and several listing styles.
  • You will cover with another plugin: SEO, contact forms, email subscription or analytics, which a reading-focused theme does not replace.
  • You will do by hand or with a professional: any design that departs from the Medium style, such as a store or a complex corporate site.

It is not a multipurpose theme: it is made for text publications, not for sales pages with complex blocks.
