Astia - Minimal Portfolio WordPress Theme for Photographers
Astia is a modern, minimal WordPress theme for photographers and videographers, offering 8 importable demo sites and a comprehensive suite of customization, SEO, and performance features for media portfolios.
Demo and Customization
- 8 Importable Demo Sites in One Theme Thanks to our signature feature, the Demo Switcher, you may apply a new demo any time without affecting your content. If you feel bored with one of the demos, simply apply a new one and get a completely different appearance of your media.
- One-Click Demo Import and Demo Switcher Feeling like you need a change of your website design? Apply a different demo anytime, even if you have existing content, without getting numerous duplicate copies of dummy posts and pages. You may import the demo posts too, a useful feature when starting a brand new media.
- Customize with Instant Live Preview All theme options can be configured with the native WordPress customize feature. Forget the outdated settings pages and manually refreshing your page to see the changes. Preview all the changes live while configuring your perfect online media.
Visual and UI Features
- Dark Mode Turn on Dark Mode for a great viewing experience especially in low-light environments. Dark Mode is a dramatic new look that’s easy on your eyes and helps you focus on the content. It uses a dark color scheme and is activated automatically based on the browser’s preferred settings or manually with a toggle. Turn on Dark Mode to give your eyes a break.
- Smart Colors When you select a dark background color for your header or footer, the text and links color will automatically change to white. You don’t need to set up a lot of color option, as most of them will work automatically based on your selection.
- Adaptive Optimized Image Sizes A small number of generated thumbnails will save your disk storage space on your hosting provider and make the thumbnail regeneration process quick. We never downscale images and serve them in the original size or close to it, so that users will not download more than they need. Google likes optimized image sizes too.
- Retina-Ready Your website will look amazing on Retina screens thanks to vector scalable elements, clear Retina-ready images, and typography.
- Justified Galleries Create greater stories with beautiful justified galleries. Creating a justified gallery feels as natural as the default WordPress ones.
- Slider Galleries Insert responsive and Retina-ready slider galleries in your post content with mobile touch and swipe support. Enable slider pagination, bullets or navigation arrows with just a few clicks.
- Lightbox Enable the option to enlarge your images in post content or post galleries in a sleek lightbox instead of opening them in a new window. The module supports all gallery types and images in post content. And it’s responsive too.
- Adobe Fonts (Formerly Typekit) Enhance your media site or magazine design by adding support for Typekit fonts. Control your fonts right in the WordPress customize section with live preview. No more CSS selectors or custom code for your Typekit fonts.
- Custom Fonts Upload custom fonts right in the WordPress dashboard and add them to the list of supported fonts in the WordPress Customize section. No coding required.
- RTL Built-in support for RTL (right-to-left) languages like Arabic, Hebrew, Persian or any other RTL written language.
- Ultra Responsive We tested our theme on multiple physical devices and emulators to make sure we deliver the best quality.

Navigation, Menus, and Accessibility
- Super-Fast Mega-Menu Showcase your recent posts with a thumbnail right in the menu dropdown. The menu loads content dynamically, only when a user hovers over the parent item.
- Smart Sticky Navigation Increase mobile users’ viewport by displaying the main navigation only when they scroll up. Or force the menu to stay sticky all the time, or disable the feature completely, it’s up to you!

There are three locations available: before post content, after post content, and in the floating post sidebar. Choose between different social accounts: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google Plus, LinkedIn, StumbleUpon, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, VKontakte, and email. Enable counts for Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest shares, and the total number of shares per post. The share buttons are ultra-fast and fully support caching plugins. Count data is fetched dynamically via REST API.
