Good ONE

by medfan2003·2 years ago

Beautiful, fast and easy to use. I hope the publisher continues to develop it.
and Please do not convert it to the new block system in WordPress.

Highly customizable and intuitive!

by fbyten·9 years ago

Gridbox is a streamlined theme with some neat customization features and a simple style layout that makes styling anything not covered in the customizer (which isn’t much) very easy to do.

The free version is very generous, and has very few (I’m yet to find any) pay walls that actually block the usability of the theme.

In short, a streamlined stylish theme that is both highly customizable and easy to tweak whenever the customizer falls short.

Thanks Themezee! 😀
