Free Themes for Our Flat File CMS
Learn more about themes for the BS-CMS system. Find out about themes for our flat file CMS and how to use it to create your website quickly and correctly. Themes can be based on any html and/or php code. They could be completely custom or use a 'frame' system such as bootstrap. With themes the user can create just about any kind of website that they would need. BS-CMS supports multiple themes, meaning that you can have as many themes as you would like, so feel free to try out many different themes. However, only one theme can be the 'active' theme for the website at any one time, but multiple themes offers the advantage of seeing how your website looks with many different layouts.

Theme Information
Theme Author: Shane Zentz
This is the Base 1 Theme by Shane Zentz. It is made specifically for BS-CMS, which is also made by Shane Zentz. This theme is based on Bootstrap 4. It does not support the BS-CMS built in menu system, instead it uses a flat file for the menu, which the user can adjust as necessary. It's not as convienent as using the built-in menu, but it is more customizable. The main purpose of this theme is to show how to use themes within BS-CMS. You can use this theme as a basis or boilerplate to create your own theme. This theme is kept simple for that reason. It only has one layout, which is the full page bootstrap layout. This theme is included with BS-CMS by default, along with Base 2. However Base 2 is a more fully developed theme with more features. This theme is kind of a barebones, generic theme. I hope you find it useful and enjoy it? Use it to create something cool.
