Gridly WordPress Theme is a feature-rich Multipurpose Site WordPress theme built on Bootstrap 4, fully compatible with WordPress 6.x with Custom Post Type support. It ships with 25 page templates, a filterable photo gallery, a blog module, map integration — all controlled from the WordPress admin and Customizer with zero coding required.

Built for WordPress developers, freelancers, and site owners delivering versatile, multipurpose websites for any industry. 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.
