From the developer
tradesouthwest's own description of Leslie, lightly tidied.
Theme has three layouts you can use to make three types of page layouts. Single posts pages and regular blog page content are displayed with content on the right and a sidebar and a navigation bar each to the left. Individual Pages that you create are displayed with content in the middle and sidebar/menu on each side of content. There is a third layout that you can have by using the template named "Portfolio Page" to show custom posts on the far right, tiled vertically kind of like a gallery.
These custom posts have their own editor and the plugin for it is installable from within the theme. Options to add social media links with icons; change link colors, background and header image. Theme uses a responsive framework but is not fully optimized for all screens. As of v. 1.3 there is option to change footer text. Demo at https://leadspilot.com/leslie/
