Custom WordPress Themes

Ernie’s High is a website built on WordPress using a custom theme called Basic High. This theme does not use jQuery and has been tested on an NGINX server running PHP 8..3.1. The core WordPress files are updated nightly with the latest beta build of WordPress.

The Basic High theme uses a core WordPress hook(function) to remove jQuery. Ernies High does not use jQuery, bulky frameworks like Bootstrap, or any so-called “page builder”. It uses core WordPress blocks, a couple of custom-built blocks, and some basic HTML & PHP for special pages. Some sample pages on the website use Vanilla JavaScript for animations like “Scroll Animation” or form validation, such as the contact form.
