Moving on from Independent Publisher 2

Independent Publisher 2 has been the theme on my blog for about 4 years now. I love its minimalism and simplicity. WordPress has introduced several new features ever since and it looks like the theme doesn’t support these features. This maybe due to the fact that it’s not actively being developed to support these new WordPress UI features. Over the past few months, I’ve discovered many UI bugs in the theme due to these changes.

I haven’t been able to fully focus on my writing due to me spending time focusing on fixing these bugs. So, I’ve been trying out new themes.

If you’ve visited my blog every day, over the past 5 days, you might’ve noticed a different theme each day. That’s ’cause I’ve been playing around with a few themes and settled on this theme for now. It is bold and has an emphasis on typography, which I appreciate. I might stick with this until I find a new one.

  1. I have been using Independent Publisher 2 theme on my WordPress blog for the last nine years and love it. I too am having problems with it; my site is no longer coming up full screen on the browser. Have you found any replacement that is similar as yet??? I am looking for a theme that allows me to post groupings of images. Please let me know if you found any such theme. I am currently going through all the WordPress themes now.

    1. I’ve switched to the latest Twenty Twenty Four theme from WordPress. It’s the closest I could find to the Independent Publisher 2.

      Are you talking about an image gallery here? If so, WP ships with it.
