Yes. BBH Lite is compatible with the Elementor page builder. Theme locations for header, footer, single post, and archive are registered so you can build custom layouts with Elementor Theme Builder.

Yes. The theme supports block styles, theme.json v2, wide/full alignment, block patterns, custom spacing units (px, em, rem, %, vh, vw), and appearance tools. The block editor styles match the front-end design.

No. All front-end JavaScript is written in vanilla JavaScript with no jQuery dependency. jQuery is only loaded within the Customizer preview for live-preview updates (admin-only, does not affect front-end performance).

Navigate to Appearance > Customize > Footer Builder and enter the full URL for each social platform you want to display: Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube. Icons appear automatically.

Go to Appearance > Customize > Footer Builder and enter your custom text in the Copyright Text field. Use {{year}} for the current year and {{site}} for your site name. Leave it empty to use the default format.

Yes. BBH Lite registers five widget areas: one main sidebar and four footer columns. Manage them via Appearance > Widgets.

When editing a page, look for Page Attributes in the right sidebar. Under Template, select Full Width. This removes the sidebar and gives you a full-width canvas for the block editor. You can also check the Hide page title checkbox to hide the page title on the front end.

Yes. The theme uses the bbh-lite text domain throughout. A POT file is included in the languages folder. You can create .po and .mo files for your language using tools like Poedit. RTL languages are supported with the included rtl.css file.

BBH Lite includes accessibility-focused features such as keyboard navigation, skip links, and ARIA attributes to enhance usability for a wide range of users.
