Customizing Inheritance

Go to Appearance → Customize to change Inheritance’s look. You can preview every change before you publish it. Inheritance groups its options into panels whose names start with Theme:.

Theme: Header → Branding

Set your site title and tagline.

Theme: Content

  • Homepage Settings: choose whether your home page shows your latest posts or a static page.
  • Feature Image → Feature Image Size: choose the size of featured images on your posts: Landscape: Thumbnail, Small, Medium (default), or Large.

If you change the size after you’ve already uploaded images, run the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin so your existing images are resized.

Theme: Footer → Credit

  • Show random “powered by” credit text: turns the credit line on or off. It’s off by default.
  • Custom Footer Text: write your own footer text instead.

Theme: Global

  • Additional CSS: add your own CSS without making a child theme. For bigger changes, use a child theme.

Menus

Under Appearance → Menus you can assign two menus:

  • Primary Navigation: on small screens, Inheritance places the menu button at the bottom left, where it’s easy to reach with your thumb. If no menu is set, your site title and tagline are centered. When a menu is set, they move to the left and the menu sits on the right.
  • Social Navigation: shown in the footer, for links to your social profiles.

Layout

Inheritance is a one-column theme. Your posts are shown in a grid, with no sidebar beside them.
