Hello and welcome to the Web Strategy Team’s Theme Cookbook!
The Theme Cookbook is the most up-to-date catalog of shortcodes and blocks available to users. Here you will find “recipes” for how to use all of the shortcodes and blocks we provide for your WordPress editing needs. The “recipes” double as catalogs of all we have to offer at any given time, so feel free to use them as a library of sorts. As we roll out the new features to the theme, these recipes will be updated and added to, so keep an eye out for new options down the line!
Currently the theme supports the classic editor and we are rolling out support for the block editor. Recipes will have block editor documentation after shortcode documentation as our support for the block editor grows. Learn more about the block editor and how to get started using it on the block editor getting started page.
This cookbook does not teach you how to use WordPress, simply how to use our theme. If you are interested in learning more about WordPress, or any other web-based training resources, please visit our training resources page that will have the latest in what we recommend learning from and referencing.

What is a recipe?
As said previously, a recipe is a how-to on any one specific element that we have shortcodes and/or blocks for, as well as a library of where you can find all of the options that are available to you. For instance, if you are wanting to see all of the button options, they are simply on the buttons page, along with a step-by-step way of how to customize and use them.
