Overview
Networker is a practical fit for publishers who want to organize a large volume of posts without relying on a page-builder workflow for every layout. The theme supports multiple archive presentations, several page and header arrangements, live Customizer previews, and a Canvas-based block editor for assembling homepages. These controls make it suitable for editorial sites that need to test different content hierarchies over time.
Dark mode can follow the visitor’s browser color preference or be switched manually; the selected mode is saved during browsing.
The post editor includes a night-mode presentation, and the theme provides separate color controls for regular and night-mode views.
Networker provides multiple archive layouts, including grid, list, full-width, and mixed presentations.
The theme includes a block-based Canvas system for building homepages, with reusable sections and post-layout blocks.
Theme settings are managed through the native WordPress Customizer with live preview.
The theme supports one-click demo-content import and separate demo presets that can be activated without importing dummy posts.
It includes live search results, related posts, reading-time display, post-view support, and numbered, load-more, and infinite-loading archive options.
The theme includes built-in support for RTL languages and translation workflows using a POT file.
