Swift-Modern-Showcase-686

We today with a great pride announce the release of Swift Modern, the first ever child theme of Swift.

After we refreshed the look of SwiftThemes.Com early this year, there were several requests to give its header style as an option.

We tried our best to incorporate it into the current Swift. but it was complicating the existing theme and it wasn’t worth the overhead for those who don’t need it. So we went the child theme route.

We were able to build this beautiful child theme with just about 200 lines of code. Shows the power and flexibility Swift gives to developers.

After I setup the demo, the final output was so beautiful that, I just kept starring at it admiring its beauty.

You can get it from the members area for $17. You should have an active license of Swift premium to use this child theme. License type will be same as your current Swift premium license.

For example

  • If you have lifetime developer license, the you will have access to Swift modern for life time and you will be able to use it for lifetime.
  • If you have a personal license that expires in 8 months, then will have access to it for 8 months and you will be able to use it only on the sites you own.

In any case, theme once downloaded can be used for life time.

Why not give it for free?

We would love to give it for free, but there are development and support costs. Though only 200 lines of code, planning it took time. We believe $17 is a reasonable amount to ask for the time and effort we put in and will put in future.

Along with the Swift modern, we are also releasing an update of Swift. The version v7.1.6

  • Added a custom filter for custom CSS. Intended to be used by child themes.
  • Added color options for social media icons. You can find them under design options->colour options -> header colors

  1. I implemented the paid version of Swift about a year ago, with my old theme being not very fast and not very responsive (not good at handling the new wave of mobile device viewing.) My site is heavy on images, particularly GIFs.
    Since I implemented Swift, I notice from watching my Google Analytics real time that now often 40-50% of my visitors are using mobile devices. And my visitor total is now approaching 1.3M, and runs about 9,000 unique visitors per day. I use CloudFlare also to mitigate the server load on the shared hosting service.
    The Swift theme is all Satish says it is, and he constantly works to improve and update it for the benefit of his customers. The value of the paid version is huge. I highly recommend it.

  2. Hello Satish,
    First off, thanks for great work.
    I have used free version of Swift themes till yet but thinking, its time to improvise. Wasn’t all sure of it but awesome reviews are assuring. I am applying v7 free version though first, but am sure, it wont be long enough when i will be using premium version.
