Magazeen is a stunning free magazine-style WordPress theme that has a contemporary look and feel, and wouldn’t look out of place as a premium theme.
The theme features an interactive showcase of recent posts at the top of each page, using a horizontal panel of thumbnail images. When you scroll over the image the title appears – encouraging your visitors to explore and enjoy your posts.
It also includes drop-down navigation with a difference – with the drop-down menus under the category headings revealing some posts from each category.
Magazeen also has some custom widgets that you can control from the WordPress admin panel to easily change the settings for the latest and featured posts in the sidebar. These panels are among the best-looking available in any WordPress theme – free or premium.

The Morning After is a brilliant free WordPress theme designed for magazine-style websites. It’s one of the best, if not the single best, free magazine templates available. It should meet the desires of many site owners, given it was created based on a survey of what people wanted in a unique magazine-style theme.
The template is grid-based, has a three-column homepage, highlighted featured posts and a customisable header image.
It also allows editors to associate images and thumbnails with posts, to appear on the homepage.
The coding allows for easy CSS classes to add captions and wrap text around images in posts.
Asides are built-in, as is Widget compatibility. Readers can also email stories to friends or choose a print-friendly version of stories.
The theme creator has written extensive commentary about installing, customising and using the theme on the download page.
