Our WP theme editor lets you turn your HTML to WP theme in 2 easy steps. This WordPress builder will grab all the page assets (images, javascript files, CSS files) and will take care of updating the page content. For example, relative links will be rewritten to absolute links. Manually doing all this is tedious and boring. Save time!
This tool will not improve the existing HTML code of the source page. Do not steal other people WP themes. Make sure you have the authorization before creating a theme from a page.
