TOUCH: A Lighter-than-air WordPress Mobile Theme

Hi there and thanks for checking out TOUCH, a mobile theme for WordPress!

‘Touch’ is the 4th in a series of mobile WordPress themes from Bonfire Themes and is intended for use on smartphone and/or tablet devices. Set it up as a secondary theme and display it only to mobile visitors, or set up a brand new WordPress installation; the choice is yours.

‘Touch’ may look light and airy but, as can be seen on the features list below, it’s a mobile theme with plenty of features in tow and can be used for many purposes; set up a straightforward blog, an optional static front page, a touch gesture-enabled gallery, or even a portfolio. Also included is a utterly unique comment form along with a validation-enabled contact form, plus sliders, shortcodes, ‘install as web app’ functionality and so on, and so on.
