Creating Wordpress Themes/Blocks with Elements

Elements

Hello @dan,

It would be great if Elements could produce Wordpress Themes and Gutenberg Blocks, much as Pinegrow does, but with a better UX and better project management. This would certainly open some doors for professional Wordpress developers and agencies

Hi @RicardoR
that would be absolutely fantastic. I have two big blogs with hundreds of daily users and for them I would not even consider something else than Wordpress. It has its reasons why it is the most widespread CMS (also with some downsides).

A connection of Elements with Wordpress in whatever way could lift Elements to a totally different level @dan. Guess this is nothing for version 1 :slight_smile:

What’s great about creating themes for Wordpress, is that you can create the content separately from the layout. Once you create your content, you can create a theme (template) for the content to display in a particular way defined by the developer. Hence, the user can add content without the need for the developer to republish every time the user wants to add another page, or more info, another blog etc.

Of course, this requires the developer to think in a different way, so that the theme can take any new content that’s it’s thrown at it.
