A thought-through responsive design and the use of icon fonts makes sure that Hoffman looks great on devices of all sizes – big and small.

You can support the development of my themes by sponsoring me on Ko-fi,GitHub, or PayPal. Thank you!
Yes. Hoffman is free and open source, released under the GPL 2.0 license like WordPress itself. You can download it from WordPress.org, or install it from your WordPress dashboard: go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme and search for “Hoffman”.
Can I use Hoffman on a commercial or client site?
Yes. The GPL 2.0 license lets you use Hoffman on any site – personal, commercial or for a client – and modify it however you want. If you distribute a modified version, it has to be released under the GPL as well.
Can I use Hoffman with the Site Editor?
No. Hoffman is a classic theme. It supports the block editor for posts and pages, but not the Site Editor. If you want to edit your whole site with blocks, try one of my block themes, like Spiekermann.
What does Hoffman require?
Hoffman requires WordPress 4.5 or later, and PHP 5.4 or later. That said, I recommend always running the latest versions of both WordPress and PHP.
Is Hoffman available in my language?
Hoffman is translated into 16 languages, including Spanish, Russian and German (see the full list). If your site is set to one of them, WordPress downloads the translation automatically when you install the theme. If your language is missing, or the translation is incomplete, you can help translate Hoffman on translate.wordpress.org.
Is Hoffman still maintained?
Yes. Hoffman gets updates with security and bug fixes, but generally not support for new features. The latest version, 2.1.4, was released on . If you’d like a feature added, you can ask for it in the support forum, or preferably by opening an issue in the GitHub repository.
How do I remove “Theme by Anders Norén” from the footer in Hoffman?
You can hide it with custom CSS, or remove it from the footer template in a child theme. If you do remove it, I’d appreciate it if you consider sending a small donation my way.
Where can I get support for Hoffman?
Post your question in the Hoffman support forum on WordPress.org. There’s a decent chance it has already been asked and answered. Found a bug, or want to contribute? Open an issue or a pull request in the GitHub repository.
