UNSEEN — CLASSIC | A Warm, Editorial XenForo Theme with a Living Welcome Banner 1.0.0

Unseen Classic gives your forum a paper-and-ink look: serif headlines, calm colours, a living welcome banner and a home page that reads like a magazine. Everything is built on XenForo's own pages and widgets, and every switch lives on one admin page.

A Classic Take on the Beloved Sakura XenForo Theme: Love Sakura's visual identity but prefer a more traditional forum experience? CLASSIC brings the familiar Sakura charm into a timeless, refined design.



A welcome that changes with the visitor

• Guests meet a large banner with a slowly moving scene (Aurora, Horizon, Constellation or a still frame), a rotating word and a live ticker of the newest topics.
• Members get a quieter banner with their own account card.
• Set the title, the sub text and an optional banner image in the admin panel.

A forum home with three faces

• Three home layouts: Stream, Board and Grouped.
• Three topic views your visitors can switch: List, Cards and Masonry.
• Generative art tiles, an icon and a colour tone for every category.

Threads that are a pleasure to read

• An art header, a reading bar and a draggable timeline in the sidebar (keyboard friendly, with the unread count).
• Redesigned message user blocks.
• A reply editor with Write / Preview tabs, the formatting keys in one row, an emoji row, a character count and Save draft.

Sidebar cards
A numbered trending list, latest posts, staff and members online with avatars, statistics tiles and share keys, plus an optional Tip of the day widget.

Make it yours

• Six palettes (Iris, Ember, Jade, Ocean, Rose, Graphite) or your own accent colour.

• Self-hosted fonts, Google Fonts or the visitor's system fonts.
• Narrow, wide or fluid page width, compact density and a themed scrollbar.

Small touches

Pricing
€25 excluding VAT for a permanent licence for one live forum, with 6 months of updates and support included. After that, updates and support renew automatically at €20 excluding VAT every 6 months; you can cancel at any time and the theme keeps working. VAT is added at checkout where it applies. Payments are handled by Paddle, our Merchant of Record.

Licence verification (external requests)
The theme works fully without a licence key. Once you enter a key on the theme's Licence page, the add-on contacts erkanshi.com when you save the key and then about once a week (scheduled task). It sends: your licence key, the product name, a random ID generated on your board, your board URL and board title, the installed versions of the theme, XenForo and PHP, and a one-time random value. Nothing is sent during installation or uninstallation, and nothing is locked if our server cannot be reached.
