About this product
Blanky Nordic is a WordPress block theme for people who blog. Navy and gold, serif headlines and quiet rules, in the manner of a Nordic magazine. The calm comes from careful reading comfort, not from added decoration.
The home page lists your newest posts with the first one set large. To put a particular post in front of readers, turn on "Sticky" in its settings and it takes the lead. Articles read in a comfortable column beside a sidebar with search, categories and recent posts, and end with an author box, previous and next links and three related posts, so readers move on to the next article naturally.
It is light and considerate of readers. Every font comes from the reader's own device, and nothing is loaded from an external server. The share buttons for X, Facebook and Hatena Bookmark are plain links: no service script is loaded, and a service is contacted only when a reader clicks. An ad slot pattern comes with a "PR" label already in place, so disclosure is never forgotten. Text contrast meets WCAG AA in every style variation.
Choose from four colour styles, and readers can switch to dark mode with a button in the header. Colours and the header are changed in the Site Editor, with no code. Updates arrive in the WordPress admin, just like any other theme.

A bento-box grid of different-sized tiles, so you can give some posts more weight than others.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get a refund?
Because this is a digital product, refunds after purchase are not available. Please check how it behaves on the demo site before buying (see the legal notice for details). Instead, if the theme does not work as shown on the demo or overview page, we will fix it free of charge (within the support period, on a site that meets the WordPress.org server requirements; conflicts with other plugins are not covered).
Can I use it on more than one site?
It is GPL licensed, so there is no limit on the number of sites. Use it freely across sites and on local or staging environments.
How long will updates be provided?
Indefinitely. You can update automatically from the WordPress admin.
How long can I download the files I bought?
The download link in the email sent at purchase is valid for 72 hours and up to 5 downloads. Even after it expires you can reissue it any time with your license key, so in practice there is no time limit.
My download link has expired
Reissue a download link — enter the email address you used at purchase and your license key, and a new link is sent by email. If you do not know your license key, you can look it up on the same page.
Can I get a receipt?
Stripe, our payment processor, emails a receipt automatically at the time of purchase. If you need it sent again, please get in touch. We are unable to add a custom billing name or a tax registration number to receipts.
Which payment methods can I use?
Credit card, Link, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Bank transfer and convenience store payment are not supported. No account is needed: the buy button takes you straight to payment.
Where can I get support?
Email support for 1 year after purchase, covering theme setup and problems. We usually reply within 24 hours on business days.
How does this differ from the free Blanky?
The number of templates, patterns and style variations differs, as does whether support is included. The comparison table above has the details.
Can I request customisation?
Yes. We quote separately depending on what you need.
