Hi Jamie, quick idea. Compare 3 classic theme sites to a block theme with exactly the same content loaded and as close as possible layouts and features and then speed test them in web page dev. Just done my own tests and this week move 3 sites across to a block themes simply because speed is everything! Matt

Excellent info! Thank you so much Jamie.

Awesome collection of block themes Jamie. Not sure about the disco theme making the list, but I appreciate why you chose to give it some attention 😁

Thanks Richard - gotta love the disco 😬

I am developer and I rather like coding to page builders but I am starting to like the Gutenberg and block themes more and more for fast simple sites. Wordpress is really keeping up with changes on web.

Yay, trying spectra one out. Ollie and green shift got my attention too

Excellent! Very informative and helpful. Thank you very much!

Thank you - nice round up.

TY for the update, Jamie.

Agreed! There really should be a growth in opinionated themes. That’s what will keep theme creation an important part of WordPress. Also agree with many of your choices. Frost is a favorite of mine. Upside Down is simple and brilliant. Ollie is a new one I want to explore for the patterns alone. Nice video.

How did I know that the Spectra One theme would be #1.? Fantastic class by the way! If any of you want to learn more about the block themes, it's well worth it. In fact, I kind of feel guilty that it was such a little price for it. (Well not all that guilty, consider me as feeling like I got a bargain.)

As always another great video! I have a couple of thoughts about Spectra. It looks great but it appears that they want to replace most of the standard Gutenberg blocks with their own versions. They also modify the core code to add additional functionality which will lock users into their platform. What do you think?

@jamiewp

Hi Jim, Spectra One works great with just core blocks, so if you don't need the extra functionality that the Spectra Blocks bring then it's an option to leave them to one side and don't install

I have a question: I recently picked a Block Theme (gutenify medical) to use as a template. I would like to change the meta description of the homepage, but I can't because it is probably "hard-coded" into the template. Is there a solution to be able to modify this?

@jamiewp

Does that theme put content into the actual template rather than you creating a home page?

Hello Jamie. Did you tested the Neve FSE Theme and the Riverbank Theme? If not maybe have a look at this two and please let me know what do you think about this two. Thanks. And a very informative Video. Thanks for this.

Hi, not yet, but Neve is on my list to test out 👍

Is it possible to access blocks from two different themes, please? I'm guessing that there will soon be a market for bundles of different blocks, without the theme part. eg: Could I buy just the blocks seen on the ollie theme? (I have the Spectra One theme loaded and elementor pro product.)

You can actually copy and paste blocks across different browser tabs opened to different themes. Learnt that from another of Jamie's videos yesterday

I think I liked the greenshift theme most, but you didnt show very much of it. So I will have to try it.

Hi Jamie, very informative thanks. I thought I’d seen you talk about Kadence theme in the past, was I mistaken? It’s on my radar at the moment.
