Thisarticle is about developing WordPress Themes. If you wish to learn more about how to install and use Themes, review Using Themes. This topic differs from Using Themes because it discusses the technical aspects of writing code to build your own Themes rather than how to activate Themes or where to obtain new Themes.

WordPress Themes are files that work together to create the design and functionality of a WordPress site. Each Theme may be different, offering many choices for site owners to instantly change their website look.

WordPress Themes live in subdirectories of the WordPress themes directory (wp-content/themes/ by default) which cannot be directly moved using the wp-config.php file. The Theme's subdirectory holds all of the Theme's stylesheet files, template files, and optional functions file (functions.php), JavaScript files, and images. For example, a Theme named "test" would reside in the directory wp-content/themes/test/. Avoid using numbers for the theme name, as this prevents it from being displayed in the available themes list.

It is possible to use the WordPress plugin system to define additional templates that are shown based on your own custom criteria. This advanced feature can be accomplished using the "template_include" action hook. More information about creating plugins can be found in the Plugin API reference.

To ensure smooth transition for language localization, use the WordPress gettext-based i18n functions for wrapping all translatable text within the template files. This makes it easier for the translation files to hook in and translate the labels, titles and other template text into the site's current language. See more at WordPress Localization and I18n for WordPress Developers.

Create a screenshot for your theme. The screenshot should be named screenshot.png, and should be placed in the top level directory. The screenshot should accurately show the theme design and saved in PNG format. While .jpg, .jpeg, and .gif are also valid extensions and file formats for the screenshot, they are not recommended.

The recommended image size is 1200px wide by 900px tall. The screenshot will usually be shown smaller but the over-sized image allows for high-resolution viewing on HiDPI displays. Note that because the Manage Themes screen is responsive, the top and bottom of the screenshot image might not be viewable so keep graphics near the center.

When enabling the availability of the Theme Customize Screen for a user role, use the "edit_theme_options" user capability instead of the "switch_themes" capability unless the user role actually should also be able to switch the themes. See more at Roles and Capabilities and Adding Administration Menus.

If you are using the "edit_themes" capability anywhere in your Theme to gain the Administrator role access to the Theme Customize Screen (or maybe some custom screens), be aware that since Version 3.0, this capability has not been assigned to the Administrator role by default in the case of WordPress Multisite installation. See the explanation. In such a case, use the "edit_theme_options" capability instead if you want the Administrator to see the "Theme Options" menu. See the additional capabilities of Administrator role when using WordPress Multisite.

Using hover options, you can create stunning hover effects and transform Divi modules into fun and interactive elements. Our hover option interface is unique and amazingly easy to use. Every design setting in Divi that supports transitions can now be customized on hover with ease.

Making responsive websites is easy with Divi. Divi is responsive by default, but takes responsive design a step further by giving you complete control over every design setting on each mobile device. This allows you to perfectly tailor the appearance of each element on computers, tablets and smart phones.

Enjoy a full range of text and font options. Pick from hundreds of web fonts or upload your own. Customize text sizes, letter spacing and line height. Change font weights and text styling. Control all standard text elements, such as anchor links, lists and block quotes.

Add custom shapes and effects to your pages, creating dynamic transitions between blocks of content and adding that extra bit of personal flare to your website. Shape Dividers can be placed above and below each section on your website, allowing you to easily build stunning transition effects between different parts of your page.

Add borders to any element using Divi's robust border editor. Create rounded corners. Control border sizes, colors and styles and create unique effects by adjusting each edge of your element individually.

Divi gives you the power to transform elements right on the page in ways that would typically only be possible in graphic design programs like Photoshop and Sketch. You can move elements around, scale them up and down, rotate on three different axis, as well as skew and adjust the transform origin with ease. All of this is done using a super slick interface that makes each transformation easy to perform and understand.

Enjoy a fully-featured code editor that makes writing and editing code so much easier and enjoyable. Features include syntax highlighting, error reporting, auto-complete, color picking, multi-line select, search, find and replace and more. Add custom CSS to any element or add your own code to any page using the Divi code module.

Easily adjust and enhance the appearance of any element using a range of filters and effects, including Hue, Saturation, Brightness, Contrast, Invert, Blur, Opacity and Sepia. Create stunning designs using background blend modes.

Add depth to your page by creating custom drop shadows. You have full control over the size, position, color and intensity of the shadow. They're easy to create and you don't have to mess with any graphic design programs!

Easily add animations to any element. Apply simple animations using Divi's animation presets, or build your own animations by customizing the animation type, speed and direction. Wow your visitors as they scroll down the page with stunning animations that trigger when elements come into view.

Apply custom background colors, background gradients, background images and background videos to any element. Create fun overlapping gradient and image effects or use background blend modes to merge colors and images to create unique designs.

Background masks can be used to mask background images, gradients or videos to create new shapes. This opens up a huge range of design possibilities and allows you to create beautiful, lightweight shapes inside the builder without having to use graphic design programs like Photoshop. Masks can be combined with patterns, which add texture on top of your background elements.

Divi eliminates bloat by removing the resources you aren't using automatically. Divi only loads the CSS needed for the modules and features you use, and Divi only processes the PHP functions required to render your page. Everything else is cut out of the equation. That's why Divi can do so much, but still remain light on its feet!

Divi automatically detects the CSS needed for content above the fold, and it defers everything else. This allows Divi to completely eliminate render blocking CSS, giving your visitors a super-speed highway directly to your content. Google gives Divi sites great score because the content shows up right away.

Divi comes with tons of speed-boosting options that defer unneeded resources, cache requests and remove render blocking assets. This greatly reduces initial loads times so that your content starts loading right away. This includes JavaScript deferral, Google Fonts caching and more.

Multi-Select is amazing. With Divi, you can press Cmd or Ctrl and click to select multiple elements on the page at once. You can then edit these elements at the same time, changing their style and content together or moving them to different locations on the page as a group.

Make sweeping changes across your entire page instantly, saving you hours upon hours of editing time. Using find and replace allows you to change any design value, such as colors or fonts, across the entire page or within specific locations. Instead of opening up each element individually and changing colors over and over again, just find and replace across the entire document. It's incredible.

Divi automatically remembers your recently used colors and stores them for easy access. It also displays your own customizable color pallet. In addition, Divi creates a unique extended color pallet using advanced color theory to give you a range of suggested colors that will look great on your page.

The ability to copy and paste styles across elements is an absolute game changer. In Divi, anything can be copied from one element and pasted onto another. You can copy individual settings, groups of settings or even copy an element's entire design and transfer it to another element on the page. No need to open up design settings and edit things over and over again. Just copy and paste.
