Blue Diamond – Responsive Corporate WordPress Theme Overview
Blue Diamond is a corporate theme from GoodLayers, first released in 2012 and still being updated on the marketplace more than a decade later. It predates the page-builder plugin market, so the editing tools are the studio’s own: a drag-and-drop page builder, a separate slider manager with module-level control, and an options panel that drives colours across the design.
Structure comes from five content types, gallery, portfolio, testimonial, price and personnel, each with its own listing and detail templates. Combined with six footer layouts, that covers a straightforward company site without any plugin shopping. Three blog styles each come in four sidebar arrangements, which amounts to twelve news layouts from one setting.
Despite tags reaching for churches, clinics and magazines, neither the listing nor the declared record mentions WooCommerce, so this is a brochure site. There is no client area, no member login and nothing that takes a payment.

Who Blue Diamond – Responsive Corporate WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
Small Canadian professional firms, consultancies, community organisations and single-location service businesses that need credible pages for services, people and contact, and value a simple editing surface over a long feature list. Layered PSD files ship with the download, which helps a designer adjust the original artwork instead of working back from rendered pages.
The personnel and testimonial types make a staff or practitioner listing easy to maintain. Businesses needing an online shop, a membership area or a modern block-editor workflow should look at a newer product instead.
Important Notes About Blue Diamond – Responsive Corporate WordPress Theme
The listing itself is damaged. Its opening sentence has lost its subject and begins "is a premium WordPress Theme", with the theme name left stranded at the foot of the page; several screenshots carry placeholder alt text, and characters have been lost to an encoding fault in the support paragraph. None of that affects the files a buyer downloads, but it does mean the live demo is the only reliable guide to what the package contains.
No changelog appears on the listing, only an off-site link, so the packaged style.css version of 1.4.0 is the single version signal; the declared WordPress ceiling is 7.0.x and the marketplace records an update in September 2026. WPML is declared without being mentioned in the body, which is worth knowing for a business serving Quebec. Demo photography is credited to an illustrator and a stock library and is not included. AppiAppi gives no legal advice.
Setup & Ongoing Management by AppiAppi
Once the customer holds the licence, AppiAppi installs the theme and sets the demo content up as a base and then builds out the real pages: service descriptions, team profiles in the personnel type, project galleries and only testimonials the owner can stand behind.
Colour, typography and footer arrangement are matched to the client’s branding, enquiry forms are configured with a privacy notice, and AI-assisted SEO and content support is included. AppiAppi keeps WordPress and the theme updated, monitors the site and answers incoming enquiries in line with the subscription plan.
