WordPress 5.2 was released a few days ago and includes several new blocks for use in the Gutenberg editor. Some of the existing blocks were tweaked. All of our themes have been updated to account for these changes. We recommend updating to WordPress 5.2 and updating your theme to the latest version for the best experience.

Just ChurchThemes.com. That’s all our company is focused on now.
ChurchThemes.com has been a part of DreamDolphin Media, LLC since we launched the theme shop in 2013. DreamDolphin Media itself was started long ago in 2002. We’ve tackled a lot of projects over the years. In fact, I looked back at our records and saw that we have registered more than 100 domain names in 17 years.
We’ve renamed the company to ChurchThemes.com, LLC after spending the last couple years unloading other projects. We’re focused. Easy church websites with WordPress. That’s it.
We just ruled out the possibility of offering a package that bundles web hosting with our themes and plugins. It would have made things easier, but the cost would have been outside of most church’s budgets. We’re sticking to our recommendation of SiteGround (also recommended by WordPress.org). Let me get to the point, though…
There is free web hosting for churches! Yes, totally free. It’s little-known and we often forget so here’s a quick post to share these options with you.
It’s starting to feel like Spring down here in Texas. How fitting it is then that we just finished our “spring cleaning” with regard to our themes and plugins. Various bug fixes, improvements and compatibility changes have been made to keep your website running smoothly.
A short time ago we switched to selling Packages instead of individual themes and plugins. This has made things a whole lot easier for churches so we’re hoping to get everyone still using an individual theme license to upgrade to a package. It’s an easy thing to do and there are many reasons to do it. Here are just five reasons.
Do you have a need for multiple websites? That could mean you are a church with several ministries or that you are a freelancer or agency building sites for clients. If so, we’d like to make sure you are aware of our new Ultimate packages. These packages provide you with the simplicity of a single license for all of our themes and plugins to be used on multiple websites, at a discounted price.
Creating a sermon podcast can help your church reach more people online. Our new Church Content Pro plugin makes it really easy for you to automatically syndicate your sermons via your own podcast on iTunes and Google Play. Let me show you how to set things up so that every time you publish a new sermon it goes to your podcast subscribers. New subscribers can discover you by searching with iTunes or Google Play.
Already have a podcast using Feedburner? I’ll show you how to replace your Feedburner-powered podcast with Church Content Pro so you can podcast straight from your WordPress feed to iTunes and Google Play.
Very recently we released updates to make our themes ready for WordPress 5.0‘s Gutenberg block editor. WordPress has released two updates to improve the block editing experience since that time. We have also been working to polish support in our themes for blocks in the new editor. Mainly this has meant adding additional styling for blocks in consideration of their various options.
Church Content Pro version 1.0.4 was released today.
Now when the Start Date for an event is excluded, the Start Date is automatically moved forward. This not happening automatically before was causing issues with the event still showing to visitors on the website.
Managing events on your website can be time-consuming. We’ve had recurring event features from the start but a few helpful options have been missing — until now. Our new Church Content Pro plugin adds additional options for recurring events and excluded dates. Let me fill you in on how you can save time.
