Mashable, obviously the resource portal for all bloggers. But more than that, we all too love their design. So why would I talking about Mashable here? The reason being Mash – the Mashable look alike Blogger template. Mash template was a Mashable inspired Blogger template developed to give the same feel in Blogger platform blogs. The template is available for free download and hope you all love my piece of work.
Update: I have releases Mash 2, if you want to try it have a look at it here.
Features
- Automatic thumbnail image with read more
- Uber cool subscribe widget
- Floating social bookmarking widget, as seen in Mashable
- Facebook and Twitter share button on every post in the homepage
- Top banner ad spot for 460×68
- Two column navigation
- Numbered page navigation
- Trending post bar on the top of each post
- Three column footer and much more
Subscribe Widget
To add your profile links to the subscribe bar icons, search for <div id='subscribe'> in the template and replace your profile links appropriately.
Floating Social Bookmark Widget
Since the template uses Mashable styled floating social bookmarking bar, you need to replace the default button values with your usernames. So to change that, search for <div id='sharebox'> and replace the default profile usernames with yours.
Trending post widget
Trending post widget shows up important post on your blog. But this isn’t automatic. Users have to enter their own blog post title and link to show up in the top of each post page. To change the URL and the post title, search for <div id='archiveboxx'> and change it appropriately.
Navigation bar
The template has two column navigation system. To enter the exact url for navigation search for <div id=’top’> and change the link URL to match the url in your blog post. For the second column nav bar search for <div id='submenu'> and do the same.
Let me know your feedback about this plugin. If you are looking for WordPress version of this theme, check it out here. Also thanks to Theme Junkie for inspiring me to release Mash template.
Note - Don’t try to remove the footer links. If you really value my work, keep the footer links as it is. It also encourage me to release even more fremium themes in the coming days.

Hi Franklin, would you know why the template has suddenly decided not to post thumbnails under “popular posts”? It did so for six months and now it doesn’t anymore.

Hi Franklin I was wondering if you can help me out a little, I use this theme on my site http://www.moviesmusicandtelevision.com. I hope it’s ok to use on a (.com)
The last couple of days the first link on the homepage has stopped working, it loads as if the page will open but then just opens the homepage again, I thought maybe it was my computer or browser but one of my readers commented that he could not open the link either.
Second problem is with Linkwithin, the widget shows under every post on the homepage. Is there anyway I can stop it doing that so it just appears on the actual posts?

Hey Franklin,
I am using your Mashable template since a while and its really cool man. The only issue I am facing is with the SEARCH BAR. When readers try and search for keywords, the search bar generates no Posts. Sometimes, I have tried to put in the entire post title and yet it shows ” NO POSTS”. How can I make this search bar work on the site.
Cheers
Murtaza
