Weaver Theme Demo List — why I like this WordPress theme

The web­site you are look­ing at right now is using the WeaverII-Pro Theme. In order to show the con­trasts and sim­i­lar­i­ties between Suf­fu­sion and Weaver I made this site a fac­sim­ile of my web­site which is cur­rently using Suff­i­sion (at least on April 22, 2012) while I am giv­ing a pre­sen­ta­tion at the East Bay Word­Press MeetUp. Click this link if you want to switch to the Suf­fu­sion ver­sion of this post. The other site will open in a new win­dow so you can com­pare. You’ll see that the ini­tial look is very sim­i­lar. I didn’t strive to make the two sites iden­ti­cal, I just wanted them to have a sim­i­lar look and feel.

Bruce Wampler, the author of Weaver, has spent 100s of hours doc­u­ment­ing the theme. So instead of try­ing to repli­cate his work I will give you a guided tour of the Weaver Theme and show you what it can do. Well look as some of Bruce’s guides and demos, and what the admin inter­face looks like; and then we’ll look at some of the sites I’ve built using Weaver.

Feel free to come back and take your time using these links for a self-guided tour.
