If you are looking for a modern, photography template or if you have any kind of portfolio you want to showcase, then our latest Gantry 5 template is just for you! Check out Milano!
Before we proceed with the Milano's review, you might want to have a look at this blog post for a list of all core features that are (and will be) included in all our Gantry 5 templates. Some of them are the UIkit Framework, ScrollReveal.js and a quite extended list of particles that bring all kind of additional functionality to your website.
Fullscreen Slider
Milano comes with a gorgeous fullscreen slider that will grab the users attention as soon as they land on your website! It is a great addition for any photography website.
You can choose between 3 different slider options:
- Unite Revolution Slider - The most popular slider extension on the web!
- Slideshow Particle - our own, in-house code particle that is almost as great as the Revolution Slider!
- RokSprocket - an awesome swiss army knife extension by Rockettheme!
Content PRO Particle
The "Content Pro" Gantry 5 particle is our own, fully-featured extension that gives you all the options you might need for your content presentation!
This particle offers many different option so you can configure the front-end presentation exactly as you want. Some of these options are "Behavior" (Static, Slider, Slideset), "Columns", "Navigation", "Animation", "Style", "Lightbox" and so on and so forth. Just watch the video for more details.
Gallery Particle
What is a photography website without a "Gallery"! We are proud to present you our own "Gallery" Gantry 5 particle we coded specifically for Milano!
The "Gallery" particle also offers a great number of options such as number of columns, layout with and without a gutter and guess what - a sorting option! Have a look at the following video for more details:
Animated Counter Particle
This is another particle we developed specifically for Milano. What is great about it is the option to animate the numbers at different speed and duration each. Just combine this particle with the ScrollReveal.js functionality and you will get some awesome results!
"Presentation" and "Gallery" modes for the Home Page
Milano is so flexible that you can configure your Home page exactly as you want!
The "Presentation" mode is meant for portfolio websites where you just showcase your projects and then, if the visitor wants to see more details about a particular project, they are provided with a link that forwards them to project's page.
The "Gallery" mode is designed for photography websites where the visitor is provided with images that open beautifully in a modal window.
The above is just a quick overview of Milano. For more details make sure you play with its demo and read the extended documentation we provide.
