WordPress Theme with AI

A theme (the design and visual structure) for WordPress, custom-built with help from Claude Code. Ideal if you have or want a WordPress site and don't want to pay for a template or rely on an agency.

  • What a WordPress theme is and what types exist in 2026.
  • Creating a block theme (the current standard) with Claude Code.
  • Installing and testing it on a local WordPress setup.

Key concepts

Step by step

Create the theme folder and start Claude Code:

Terminal
cd ~/proyectos-ia
mkdir tema-wordpress
cd tema-wordpress
claude

Install and test

The README will tell you how, but in essence: zip the theme folder into a .zip file and upload it in WordPress under Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload. Activate it.

If something goes wrong

  • The theme doesn't appear when you upload it — check that the .zip contains the files at the root level and that style.css exists with the theme header.
  • It looks broken — paste the error or a screenshot into Claude Code; it's usually a misreferenced template.
  • I can't edit visually — confirm it's a block theme and that your WordPress is up to date.

Practice challenge

Ask Claude Code for a dark mode variation of the theme and a reusable section pattern (for example, a "testimonials" block) that you can insert on any page.

How all courses connect

This is not a checklist. Start with the foundation, choose an outcome, and go deeper only when your project needs more control.

  1. 1Understand
  2. 2Apply or build
  3. 3Operate with confidence
01

Choose an application

Turn the foundation into a visible outcome: a website, a business improvement, media, or an interactive experience.
