Theme Customization

Customizer Settings

We created a lot of different options to allow you to customize as much as possible of the theme and integrated them with the WordPress Customizer, this way you have a centralized place where you can edit and preview any change you make to the theme.

There are more than 15 sections with more than 85 customizable options in total which can be accessed from the Vikinger Settings panel of the Customizer.

Sections have information about what type of options they contain and each of their options have a description that helps understand what that particular option changes in the theme.
