Wabi WordPress Block Theme

Dynamic accent colors

With Wabi, you may pick an accent color for each post and “theme” that content, providing a clever design layer to compliment the theme’s minimal style. Each post can have one of six different accent colors, all of which you may tailor within the new Global Styles interface.

Style variants

With multiple style variants (light, dark, and two dynamic color schemes — aoi and pinku) at your fingertips, Method is the most expressive and adaptable writing theme yet. To apply one of these styles, head into the new Site Editor experience, then select the Styles icon at the top right of the toolbar. You’ll see the new Styles sidebar, which you’ll be able to change your theme’s style from.
