What the traditional route asks of you
Split the page into partials, add a theme header comment, enqueue stylesheets from a functions file, re-reference every asset, then debug the parts that broke. It is a reasonable ask of a developer and an unreasonable one for anybody else.
The no-code alternative
Themify performs all of that mechanically from the rendered Bolt.new page, including the parts that depend on the hydrated component tree and bundled Tailwind output.
- Open the page you want to convert in Chrome.
- Click the Themify extension icon in the toolbar.
- Press Generate theme and wait for the capture to finish.
- In wp-admin, go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
- Upload the .zip, activate it, and the page is live on WordPress.
What you actually need to know
Three things, none of them technical.
- How to install a Chrome or Firefox extension
- Where Appearance → Themes lives in wp-admin
- How to spot a difference between two browser tabs
When to bring in a developer
Bring one in for dynamic content, membership logic or custom post types. The presentation layer is no longer the part that needs them.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to know PHP to convert Bolt.new to WordPress?
- No. The output is a finished theme .zip you upload through wp-admin.
- Do I need FTP access?
- No — everything happens through the WordPress admin interface.
- What if I have never installed a theme before?
- It is four clicks: Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme, then activate.
