Wave is a GeneratePress child theme for magazines and news sites. A large lead story opens the home page next to the latest headlines, image-led story rows follow, and a sign-up band closes every page.

Fonts, colours and layout ship with the theme and load as GeneratePress defaults, so you can change everything later in the Customizer. No page builder and no GP Premium.

What’s in the box

Home page with a lead story, latest headlines and a story grid
All Stories page with a sidebar card

Lead story

The top story opens the home page with a large photo, section label and standfirst, next to the latest headlines.

Image-led story grid

Stories list as photo cards with section, headline, standfirst, author and date.

Calm single posts

Centred headline and standfirst, author line and a wide photo, then a narrow reading column.

Sign-up built in

A subscribe button in the header and a newsletter band at the foot of every page.

Works with GeneratePress Free

Design settings load as GeneratePress defaults and stay editable in the Customizer. GP Premium is not required.

Fonts included

Inter ships inside the theme, so pages load no external font files.
