About Bimber Viral Magazine WordPress Theme 9.2.1

Bimber is a WordPress theme for viral and buzz-style magazine sites. The listing describes sharing buttons, popular, hot and trending post listings, and several places to show ads. It is aimed at sites that publish lists, videos and shareable stories and want visitors to pass them on.

The file on record is version 9.2.1, about 57 megabytes, with a release date of 9 January 2022 in the listing. The package is large because magazine themes of this kind usually carry demos and companion plugins. Check the documentation in the package for the demo list, and test on a staging site with your current WordPress and PHP versions.

Key features

Viral magazine layouts
Built around shareable stories, lists and media for buzz-style publishing.
Sharing buttons
The listing highlights sharing buttons so readers can pass posts on.
Popular, hot and trending lists
Listings that surface posts by popularity and recent activity.
Multiple ad locations
Several positions are reserved for ads, useful if you monetise with display advertising.
Lightweight claim
Described as lightweight and easy to use, though real speed depends on your hosting, plugins and images.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

  • Viral, buzz and entertainment magazines that rely on social sharing
  • Publishers who plan to sell or show ads in several positions
  • Bloggers who want a news-style layout with trending sections

Look elsewhere if

  • Online shops, since the listing describes a magazine theme and doesn't mention e-commerce
  • Simple personal blogs that don't need trending lists or ad slots

How to install Bimber Viral Magazine WordPress Theme 9.2.1

  1. 1

    Download the file

    Open My Account β†’ Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.

  2. 2

    Find the installable theme zip

    Theme packages often bundle the theme, a child theme, plugins and docs. The installable theme is the zip that has style.css at its top level.

  3. 3

    Upload it to WordPress

    Go to Appearance β†’ Themes β†’ Add New Theme β†’ Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.

  4. 4

    Install the recommended plugins

    Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.

Notes for this product

  • After activating, install the plugins in the theme's required or recommended plugins notice before importing a demo or adjusting settings. The listing doesn't name them, so see the documentation.

Getting started: using Bimber Viral Magazine WordPress Theme 9.2.1

  1. Activate Bimber and install its plugins. Follow the notice that lists the companion plugins the theme wants.
  2. Read the included documentation. See which demos and options are included, since the listing doesn't say.
  3. Import a demo or set up the home page. A demo shows the intended layout. Replace its content with your own.
  4. Configure sharing and listings. Set the sharing buttons and the popular, hot and trending sections.
  5. Place your ads and test. Add ad code to the ad locations and check the pages on mobile.

Common problems and fixes

Trending or popular lists look empty on a new site
Why it happens
These lists are based on activity such as views or votes, and a new site has little data.
How to fix it
Publish several posts and let them collect activity, or check the theme's documentation for how each list is calculated.
β€œThe package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”
Why it happens
The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
How to fix it
Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.
β€œThe link you followed has expired.” when uploading
Why it happens
The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it
Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.
Demo import stops part-way or times out
Why it happens
The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
How to fix it
Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.
Pages look broken right after activating
Why it happens
The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
How to fix it
Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.

Frequently asked questions

Is Bimber only for viral sites?

It is designed for viral magazines, but nothing stops you using it for a general magazine or blog.

Does it include ad management?

The listing mentions multiple ad locations, meaning places to put ads. It doesn't say it provides an ad network.

How many demos are included?

The listing doesn't state it. Check the documentation in the package.

Will it work with current WordPress?

The file is version 9.2.1 from January 2022, so test it on a staging copy first.
