Circles WP – a block theme with a circle as background image
Circles WP is a clean, flexible, fast and accessibility-ready block theme. Its default look is a stylish white on black background color scheme with an orange circle in background and lexend font (a sans-serif typography). It is possible to change the background graphic with the Circles WP. 10 Circles WP with different colors are supplied in the \assets\images folder as SVG graphics. Circles WP is built from the ground up for flexibility. It includes ten different theme styles to choose from, and different block patterns that you can use to quickly create unique page layouts. Circles WP is suitable for websites that contain few photos. The theme is therefore not suitable for photo-heavy websites.
Requires at least: WordPress 6.6
The theme is lightweight and therefore extremely fast. The default font used is Lexend – an accessible font. Alternatively, the font Atkinson Hyperlegible Font – Braille Institute (also accessible) or “System Font” is also available. Circles WP has been deliberately developed without any additional CSS, i.e. I only use the settings of the Block Editor.
The Plugin Theme Check now only reports two warnings, but these can be ignored. The Theme Unit Tests have also been completed.
By the way, our website haurand.com uses the Circles WP block theme. We carried out the relaunch on 2.11.2024.
