Metro-Blocks – Multi-Business WordPress theme Overview
Metro-Blocks is a general purpose business theme whose front page is a grid of coloured tiles, a layout borrowed from the Windows 8 start screen and carried through the inner pages. Instead of a design per trade it offers one tile structure and wide controls for recolouring it, swapping fonts and backgrounds.
The theme comes from the seller Mymoun and is built on the Zurb Foundation 5 front end framework. Pages are assembled with the bundled Visual Composer builder plus the vendor’s own shortcodes, and a one click importer loads the demo.
What it imposes is the grid itself. A business whose homepage suits a board of equally weighted links will get a lot from it, and the vendor’s long industry list is really a list of trades that would accept that grid rather than a set of ready made demos.

Who Metro-Blocks – Multi-Business WordPress theme Is Suitable For
This fits a Canadian firm that wants its whole offering visible at a glance: a printer or sign maker with many product lines, an industrial supplier or a training provider. Per page background and header controls let each division look different without a second site.
It suits a small shop less well, because the marketplace record declares WooCommerce 6.x as its ceiling, several major releases behind current. Anyone planning real volume should treat the store pages as secondary and check them on the demo first.
Important Notes About Metro-Blocks – Multi-Business WordPress theme
Two parts of the listing describe other products. A WooCommerce paragraph praises a theme called BodyGuard, and the description inside the packaged style.css says only that this is a Windows 8 like theme. Neither changes the files, but judge the package by the live demo. The record also declares Easy Digital Downloads, Events Calendar, Gravity Forms and WPML support the copy never mentions, and no changelog is published, so the packaged version of 3.4 cannot be matched against anything. Layouts depend on the bundled Visual Composer copy; the vendor states no licensing arrangement for it, so confirm how it will be updated. Demo photography and demo products are excluded from the download.
Contact and quote forms collect personal information, which engages federal privacy law and, in Quebec, provincial rules, and a site serving Quebec carries French language obligations. AppiAppi configures what the owner asks for but gives no legal advice.
Setup & Ongoing Management by AppiAppi
The customer buys this theme licence directly, which keeps it in their name. AppiAppi installs it on the hosting, imports the demo so the structure is in place, then replaces every tile, heading and image with the customer’s material. Service pages, a team section, a project list, enquiry forms, pricing tables and locations are built from what the customer supplies, and only genuine testimonials go in.
After launch AppiAppi keeps WordPress, the theme and the bundled builder current, watches for layout breakage, and handles backups. Search and content work is supported with AI assisted drafting that a person signs off, and form enquiries are answered or passed on according to the customer’s plan.
