Menori WordPress Theme is a warm, community-centred Jewish Synagogue WordPress theme built on Bootstrap 5, fully compatible with WordPress 6.x with full WooCommerce integration. It ships with 18 page templates, an events module with detail pages, a donation system, a member directory, a full e-commerce shop module with cart and checkout, and a blog module — all controlled from the WordPress admin and Customizer with zero coding required.

Built for WordPress developers, freelancers, and site owners delivering synagogue and Jewish community websites. The theme follows WordPress coding standards throughout: template hierarchy, action and filter hooks, wp_enqueue_scripts for all assets, and a child-theme-ready structure. Every visible element is customisable via the Customizer live preview — no page builder plugin dependency required.
