Theme options

Theme options refer to customizable settings offered by the WordPress theme you utilize on your site. These options enable you to personalize the appearance and style of your site without having to directly modify the theme’s underlying code.

The available options depend on the theme you are using. Some themes offer basic options, such as the ability to change the background color or site logo, while other themes, especially premium ones, provide a wide range of customization options, including font choice, layout settings, colors, animation effects, and much more.

Here are some common examples of theme options:

1. Site Identity: These options may include the site title, tagline, logo, site icon (or favicon), and other identifying elements.
2. Colors and fonts: Many themes allow you to customize the colors and fonts used on your site. You can usually choose from a variety of colors and fonts or enter your own color codes and add custom fonts.
3. Page Layout: The page layout options encompass various settings, such as the page width, column arrangement (e.g., one, two, or three columns), sidebar position, and other layout configurations.
4. Blog settings: If your site includes a blog, you may have options for article layout, pagination, metadata (e.g., author, date, categories), and other settings related to the blog.
5. Media settings: These options can include image sizes, gallery settings, and other media-related configurations.
6. Footer: The footer options can include copyright text, footer links, widget layout, and other footer settings.
7. Advanced options: Some themes offer advanced features, including shortcodes, custom CSS options, SEO settings, and other functionalities designed for more experienced users.

You can usually access the theme options in the WordPress dashboard by going to Appearance > Customize. Depending on the theme’s design, some options may also be accessible through a separate theme options panel.

If you can’t find the theme options under Appearance > Customize, here are the most common places in the dashboard where you can find the options for the active theme:

• Under “Options,” “Theme Options,” or “Theme Settings.”
• Under “Appearance > Customize” (customizer)
• Under a custom menu with a theme logo (e.g., “Avada > Theme Options” or “Boldlab Core Options”).
• Under Settings

Theme options are a powerful way to customize your WordPress site. They enable you to give your site a unique look and adapt it to your specific needs, all without requiring coding knowledge.
