WordPress Theme Layout

WordPress theme layout is turning a Figma mockup into CMS templates and styles: page templates, header/footer, posts/pages, and core editor blocks. VivaCoding builds responsive, maintainable frontend for WordPress (PHP theme templates, CSS/JS, and optionally ACF or Gutenberg blocks) so the design matches the storefront and survives updates.

Key takeaways

  • You have a Figma mockup and WordPress is the chosen stack.
  • You need UI integrated into CMS themes/templates — not only static HTML.
  • Responsive behavior, performance, and CMS logic must stay intact.

What WordPress layout means

It is frontend work on top of a specific CMS: not just a pretty browser preview, but templates, styles, and scripts that live with the admin UI, modules, and updates. Unlike plain HTML markup, WordPress expects a file structure and dynamic areas (cart, account, forms).

When it fits

  • You have a Figma mockup and WordPress is the chosen stack.
  • You need UI integrated into CMS themes/templates — not only static HTML.
  • Responsive behavior, performance, and CMS logic must stay intact.

When it does not

No mockup yet — start with design. Need a full turnkey site/store with backend logic — see WordPress development or online store. Need static HTML only — see HTML layout.

FAQ

Is this CSS-only or template edits?

Usually both: styles plus WordPress template edits, otherwise dynamic blocks will not match the mockup.

How long does layout take?

From a few days to 2–4 weeks, depending on template count, checkout depth, and the current theme.

Can you deliver plain HTML first?

Yes as an intermediate step. Production on WordPress still needs theme integration.
