Bismuth 0.1.0

Bismuth is a hybrid WordPress theme for legal and professional services. It combines classic PHP templates with an editable core-block pattern library, Source Serif 4 and Source Sans 3, and three palettes.

Install

Download bismuth-0.1.0.zip, then upload it under Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.

Included

  • 26 core-block patterns for full pages, practice areas, lawyer profiles, editorial content, and reusable sections.
  • Plum, Navy, and Stone palettes, applied through the Customizer to both the frontend and Block Editor.
  • Standard page, post, archive, search, comments, and 404 support, plus Full page and Blank canvas templates.
  • Locally served Source fonts in normal and italic variable WOFF2 files.
  • Custom logo, primary and footer navigation, header action, and footer settings.
  • Responsive navigation and native form styling, with no required builder or custom-block plugin.

Verified

All 26 patterns pass WordPress editor serialization validation. The installable ZIP activates in a separate WordPress Studio site and registers both custom templates and all patterns. The initial desktop/mobile accessibility pass covered 12 page and utility layouts; nested landmarks found during that pass were corrected. The three color palettes pass the subsequent desktop checks.

The package contains 54 files under one bismuth/ folder. The release artifact is checked for ZIP integrity, PHP syntax, JSON validity, and installed-file parity.

Demo and limits

Explore the demo and pattern tour.

The fictional firm, Unsplash photographs, preview switcher, and non-sending enquiry form are demo content. Photographs are not part of the GPL theme ZIP; image patterns use a placeholder until you add your own images. Contact forms need a form plugin. No WordPress.org directory acceptance, automatic-update service, or Theme Check certification is claimed.

Requires WordPress 7.0 and PHP 7.4. Installed checks ran on WordPress 7.1 and PHP 8.4.
