Zeen is a next-generation WordPress theme developed by Codetipi.
In the first 12 hours of its launch, Codetipt sold an impressive 100 copies, making it the fastest-selling theme on ThemeForest ever.
So how did the Zeen theme sell out so fast?
At first glance, the theme looks attractive and polished and comes with 30+ highly unique demos to get you started. Let’s dive in and discover the amazing features of this theme.
The first step allows you to install a child theme – a super handy and time-saving feature. Next, you can install the theme’s bundled plugins, and then finish up by importing the demo content.
Unlike other themes where you import the whole demo, you can select which parts you’d like to import in Zeen, which is a nice touch. You can import content (demo articles/menus/etc.), the options (theme options settings), and/or the widgets you like.
As a result of this flexibility, if you change your mind after importing the theme options from one demo, you can quickly re-launch Zeen’s setup wizard and import the theme options from a different demo, which saves you plenty of time and energy.
This functionality ensures complete freedom to experiment and only publish when you’re satisfied.
The fact that Zeen offers a frontend theme options panel is something all users will highly appreciate. Many themes usually have a backend theme options panel that forces the users to save and publish changes before actually being able to see what the changes look like.
You can enable the dark mode button to appear in any menu with a simple on/off switch.
Once enabled, you get a beautiful animate-on-click icon and transform the entire site into dark mode. The reason it has been coined “advanced” dark mode is that the icon can be placed anywhere (including mobile header) and a cookie is dropped to remember the visitor preference which makes for a great user experience.
