About Press Release
A block theme built for newsrooms and press-release sites. Clean, fast and accessible out of the box, with patterns for datelines, media contacts, boilerplates and press kits. Pairs with the free PressFeed plugin to import and measure press releases, and works perfectly well on its own.

Why use a child theme for Press Release?
Every time Press Release 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 Press Release updates without losing your edits.
- ✓Override any Press Release 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 Press Release Child ThemeFrequently asked questions
What is a Press Release child theme? +
A child theme is a separate WordPress theme that inherits all functionality, design, and templates from Press Release (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 Press Release 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 Press Release updates? +
That's exactly what a child theme is designed to prevent. Press Release 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 Press Release child themes you can generate. The zip is built on demand and downloaded directly to you.
