About this theme

TruthNews Pro is a premium newspaper WordPress theme

TruthNews Pro looks and reads like a newspaper. A heavy serif masthead, a category menu for every desk and large, centred lead stories give your reporting the weight it deserves, in a clutter-free layout.

On the theme demo, TruthNews Pro scores 95 for performance in Google PageSpeed Insights and 99% in GTmetrix, with a mobile Largest Contentful Paint of 1.1 seconds. Real-world results depend on your hosting, plugins and content, but you start from a light base instead of a heavy one.

A newspaper WordPress theme with a clutter-free layout

Newspaper readers expect pages to open instantly, especially for breaking stories. TruthNews Pro keeps the layout clutter-free and lightweight, and all three Core Web Vitals pass on the demo.

A date bar with social icons sits above a bold serif masthead and a category menu for desks such as Automotive, Breaking News, Business, National News and World News.

A strip of four overlay headlines leads into a series of full-width lead stories, each with a centred headline, a large image and a caption, the way a front page leads with its biggest news.

Further down, Trending News, Latest News, Article List, Dual Insights, Trending Now, Split Block, Grid List, Recent News, Must Read and Article Group blocks cover the rest of the paper.
