About Big Patterns
Visit bigbobnetwork.com/BigMedia/. The Big Patterns theme is the first theme in the Big Series to be designed with block pattern compatibility in mind. It coordinates the power of block patterns with the power of the customizer. It has been designed to give users more page options with more versatility across different viewports. It is written so that users will be able to get started fast and grow their websites over time while making the fewest choices necessary. It is designed to give your users easy access to navigation controls and provides strict styling standards so that you can focus on pushing out your content. From small menus to large menus to scroll arrows to menus that can be extended into the sidebar and collapsed into the pop out menu for mobile navigation, the Big Patterns theme will allow you to create a site where your users will never get lost and will always be able to find what they’re looking for. This theme features maximizing the use of images and videos as a way to give your site a unique look. It does this by creating a layout that adapts well to a variety of different header videos (including YouTube videos) and header images as well as background images and videos. Everything is designed with mobile compatibility in mind. Users may find that they can create a unique look by just uploading a video and a few images. It includes four sticky sidebars and multiple sticky navbar options and a slide panel menu for mobile browsers as well as multiple Gutenberg block extensions, block patterns, and block variations, and it has the ability to set menus and widgets in three different locations. Whether you’re interested in black, white, yellow, bubble pink, blood red, or puke green, the Big Patterns theme provides multiple color palettes to get your site to match your message. In addition, it provides opacity range bars, so your background images don’t go to waste, but your text readability won’t be compromised. It also gives you access to the Google fonts free online library, so you can access the coolest classic fonts or the newest and latest hits.

Why use a child theme for Big Patterns?
Every time Big Patterns ships an update, any direct edits you made to its files are overwritten. A child theme isolates your changes — custom CSS, template overrides, additional functions — so the parent can update freely while your customizations stay intact.
- ✓Survive Big Patterns updates without losing your edits.
- ✓Override any Big Patterns template file by copying it into the child.
- ✓Add custom hooks, shortcodes, or enqueue your own scripts.
- ✓Roll back to the parent at any time by deactivating the child.

Generate Big Patterns Child ThemeFrequently asked questions
What is a Big Patterns child theme? +
A child theme is a separate WordPress theme that inherits all functionality, design, and templates from Big Patterns (its parent). You make your customizations in the child so they survive updates to the parent theme.
Do I need to know code to use this generator? +
No. The generator creates a complete, valid Big Patterns child theme with style.css, functions.php, screenshot.png, and README.txt. You can customize via the form fields, and if you want to add custom CSS or PHP later you can edit the files directly.
Will the child theme break when Big Patterns updates? +
That's exactly what a child theme is designed to prevent. Big Patterns can be updated freely without losing your customizations, because they live in the child theme files.
Is this generator really free? +
Yes. There is no signup, no payment, and no limit on how many Big Patterns child themes you can generate. The zip is built on demand and downloaded directly to you.
