About ZigZagPress Tahini WordPress Theme
You upload Tahini and the piece that holds it up is missing
You upload the theme to WordPress, try to activate it and the system warns you that something is missing. It is not a file error. Tahini is a child theme and only works on top of Genesis Framework, which is installed separately and first.
With a child theme you maintain two pieces, and it pays to be clear about what each one brings. Tahini, by ZigzagPress, provides the look: a calm reading magazine, presented in its demo as a cruelty-free cooking publication. Genesis provides the base that design runs on, including its SEO options.
What Genesis brings and what Tahini brings
- Genesis Framework is the parent theme. The SEO options and functions are inherited from it.
- Tahini adds the design, with a five-item menu in the demo: home, about, templates, style guide and contact.
- Responsive design that adapts from desktop to mobile devices.
- .po and .mo files included to translate the theme into the language you need.
- Two sample templates in the demo, Blog and Archive, plus the style guide.
One column so the text is in charge
The Blog template shows posts one below the other, with featured image, title, date, author, body text, categories and tags. At the end there is numbered pagination. No sidebar is visible on the demo's blog and post pages, so reading does not compete with widgets.
Each single post has a breadcrumb at the top and, at the end, a block of four related posts with thumbnails, plus a link to the previous post. That block is what gives the reader a next step when the recipe or article ends.
The Archive template works as a site map. It gathers pages, categories, authors, months and recent posts on one screen. The demo has nine categories by type of dish, such as breakfast, salads, soups or drinks, which serve as a model if you are writing a recipe collection.
Writing resources for a long article
The style guide shows what the theme has ready for text, and it is worth keeping at hand before publishing:
- Headings from H1 to H6, numbered and bulleted lists, and tables.
- Lead paragraph with the intro class, to open the article.
- Drop cap with the dropcap class and highlighted text with the highlight class.
- Quotes and preformatted code blocks.
- Images centered, left, right or large.
- Embedded video through the video_wrap shortcode.
The classes are typed by hand in the block's HTML, so whoever publishes should be comfortable with that step.
A recipe here is a regular post
The demo recipes are regular posts. Among its features there is no recipe card with ingredients, times or a print version, and no shop either. A food blog that wants that structured card needs a recipe plugin on top.
Installing the two pieces in order
The requirement is Genesis Framework. Setup follows this order:
- Install Genesis Framework in Appearance, Themes. It must stay installed, even though another theme is active.
- Upload Tahini and activate it.
- Create the main pages and assign Blog and Archive their templates.
- Define your categories before publishing, because the Archive template lives on them.
- Translate the theme with the .po and .mo files if your site is not in English.
If the blog is mainly a recipe collection
CheerUp brings a cooking demo, a recipe index and its own styles for WP Recipe Maker cards. There is also Tasty Recipes as a recipe plugin. For a personal blog without Genesis, Lemars supports several builders and Veen is a minimalist theme with ad spaces already planned.
