Made for Professional Practices

Your website should make it easy to understand what you do and who to speak with. Bismuth gives practice areas their own pages, introduces the people behind the advice, and keeps the contact path clear.

  • Use ordinary WordPress pages for your firm, practice areas, and people.
  • Start with a full-page pattern, then edit the text, images, and links.
  • Set your identity, menus, palette, and header action in the Customizer.

Classic PHP templates provide the structure. WordPress core blocks hold your content.

Choose Your Design

Start with Plum, or choose Navy or Stone under Bismuth design in the Customizer. The palette changes in the frontend and the Block Editor, while your content stays in place.

Every design pairs Source Serif 4 headings with Source Sans 3 body text. Both families load from your own site.

Your Firm’s Pages, Included

A firm needs more than a homepage. These patterns give the important pages a consistent structure, from your first introduction to a detailed article.

  • Firm introduction
  • Practice areas
  • People directory
  • Lawyer profiles
  • Perspective articles
  • Contact layout

Every pattern uses WordPress core blocks. Your content remains editable when you change themes; its presentation follows the new theme.

Keep the Classic Structure

PHP templates handle the site structure, and the Customizer handles site settings. Page content stays in the Block Editor.

Keep Fonts on Your Site

Bismuth bundles Source Serif 4 and Source Sans 3 as variable WOFF2 files, including their italic styles.

Choose Your Form Plugin

The contact layout and native form styling give you a starting point. Your form plugin handles enquiries and delivery.

Make It Your Own

  1. Download the theme

    Complete the free checkout, then download the latest Bismuth theme ZIP from your order downloads. Choose the package with free updates included.

  2. Install it in WordPress

    Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme. Choose the ZIP, install it, and activate it.

  3. Build your first page

    Choose the Full page template, insert a Bismuth pattern, and replace the example copy, photographs, and links. Set your homepage under Settings → Reading.

Before You Install

Bismuth keeps a conventional theme structure and supports the modern Block Editor.

  • Requires WordPress 7.0 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.
  • It is a hybrid theme, with the Customizer rather than Full Site Editing.
  • Demo photographs are separate media. The ZIP includes placeholders for your own images.

The demo enquiry form does not send or store information. A working enquiry form needs your chosen form plugin behind the layout.

I Build Tools That Pay for Themselves And Give Away the Ones That Can’t

Everything here is quick to set up, light on your pages and built to do one real job well. I only charge for the tools that can make you money. The rest are free.

Gaurav Tiwari

Hi, I’m Gaurav

I design, build and support every product on this site myself. When you email me, the person reading it is the one who wrote the code.

I’d rather ship one tool you’d miss if it vanished than ten that sit in your plugin list doing nothing.

  • You talk to me, not a ticket queue
  • Paid tools have to earn their price
  • Free tools stay free
More about me

18+years building websites, plugins and stores, since 2008

I obsess over performance

Switch a feature off and it loads nothing. What does load stays small. A tool that replaces a plugin shouldn’t make your pages slower.

I care how it feels

Clear screens, sensible defaults and settings written in plain English. If you need a tutorial for the basics, that’s my design mistake, not yours.

I build for everyone

Full keyboard support, visible focus, proper labels and text you can actually read. When more people can use your store, more people can buy from it.

I build tools that earn

My paid tools help you sell, renew, license or convert. If one just sits in your stack, I haven’t done my job.

If it can’t earn, it’s free

I won’t charge for anything that can’t make you money. The free tools get the same care as the paid ones, down to the last setting.

Give Your Practice a Clearer Home

The complete Bismuth theme is free under GPL-2.0-or-later. Download it, make it yours, and use it on as many sites as you need.
