See Rockbase in Action and Get Sneak Peek on What’s Coming Next
The launch of the Rockbase theme has garnered an incredible response so far! Although users are hesitant to switch to WordPress's full-site editor (FSE), we received a ton of positive feedback on it. I've shared my excitement for this new direction in a previous article, explaining why I believe it's a big step for WordPress users.
We've also received numerous custom website project requests from big names and well-known digital creators (will share more soon!). It's exciting to see the interest in transitioning their sites to WordPress and powering them with the Rockbase theme. This movement showcases the theme's versatility and the growing confidence in the full site editor's capabilities.
The full site editor is here to stay, marking a significant shift in how we think about website design and management within WordPress. We're embracing this change and have some exciting updates and sneak peeks to share with you about what's coming next for Rockbase.
A quick reminder: the Rockbase special launch promotion ends tomorrow (March 31st)! If you haven't signed up yet, now is the time to do so.
This is a unique opportunity for you to become an early member of our community, where you can provide feedback and share ideas on the direction we should take Rockbase.
What’s next for Rockbase?
Our main focus now is on improving documentation and education. We understand that many of you are new to the full site editor in WordPress, and we're committed to providing more tutorials, tips, and tricks. These resources will help you not only use the Rockbase theme more effectively but also master the WordPress editor in general.
We're also excited to announce that we're working on new pattern designs. While the current offerings serve as core patterns, our goal is to introduce extensions tailored to specific use cases. These include newsletters, podcasts, freelancing, coaching, services, and more.
Here's a sneak peek of what we're working right now:
Additionally, we're planning to include complete pages for common needs such as About, Pricing, Sales Page, Reviews, Features, and more. These pages will be directly accessible from the patterns in the editor, saving you hours of work in trying to assemble them yourself.
Stay tuned for previews of what's to come and get ready to enhance your website with these exciting new features from Rockbase.

Design Through Fast Iterations We often dive deep into design theory and spend hours on tutorials learning new skills. But I don’t think we focus enough on practical techniques that actually help us achieve the best results. You can have all that design knowledge, but you still need a process that helps you stay creative, make those little decisions at every step, and find the best solution. When I first started designing, I’d often stare at a blank page, unsure of where to begin. My usual...
Auto Layout in Figma: to use or not to use? Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the debate around auto layout in Figma. On one side, you’ve got designers who say skipping auto layout makes their work faster—they don’t have to get bogged down in the details, and it speeds up their process. On the other hand, some argue that auto layout is essential for efficiency, helping to maintain consistent spacing, reposition elements easily, and ensure everything is pixel-perfect. Personally, I’ve...
It’s Typespiration Time! Lately, I've been feeling a bit nostalgic for the days when design was just pure fun—no business plans, no client deadlines, no specific goals, just the joy of creating. So, I decided to revisit one of my older side projects, Typespiration. It reminded me of a time when I could simply create, share, and not worry too much about anything else. For those of you who haven't heard of it before, Typespiration is a collection of simple designs that play with different sets...
