Elemental Included For No Extra Cost!

Elemental is a required part of The Local Hyperlocal Theme. Purchased separately Elemental costs $59 for the basic version; but with The Local it is included, for no extra cost!

Elemental is a WordPress theme framework, a special theme that does the complicated stuff so that The Local doesn't have too. The big advantage of a WordPress theme framework is that the functionality is kept separate from the design. This means that updates and bug fixes can be released more easily, and more regularly meaning a better theme for you.
