About
Oulipo is a three column, black and white WordPress theme with a clean, grid-based layout and lovely typography.
In addition to a clean design, Oulipo also features:
- A widget-enabled sidebar
- Front page styling for sticky posts
- Threaded comments for WordPress 2.7+
-
Installation
Oulipo is installed in the same way as all other WordPress themes. Simply place the extracted theme in your themes directory (usually
/wp-content/themes
). Log-in to the WordPress administration panel, go to the "Design" section, and activate Oulipo. If my explanation confused you, or you haven't installed a theme before, more detailed directions can be found in the WordPress Codex here. -
Special Formatting
In addition to supporting standard formatting options such as blockquotes and captions, Oulipo supports a {fin} tag that can be used to demarcate the end of a post. To use the {fin} tag, simple insert the following code at the end of your post:
<p class="fin"><span class="bracket">{</span> fin <span class="bracket">}</span></p>

Suggested Plugins
Oulipo was originally designed as a personal theme and used a number of plug-ins to enhance the functionality and design. Here is a list of plugins that were used with the original design that you might want to use on your site:
