GameSync Lite

A simple, free games-catalog theme built for the GameSync WP Importer -- a clean grid archive and game detail page, plus a normal blog. No setup screens, no settings to learn.

Works on its own as a normal blog theme -- install the free Importer plugin too and the Games archive comes alive automatically

One fixed, tested light color scheme -- no dark mode, no accent-color picker. That simplicity is the point.

What it does

Everything a simple games site needs

A clean games archive

A grid of every game imported by the Importer plugin, with a normal numbered "Next / Previous" pager -- no infinite scroll, no view-switcher.

A real game detail page

Cover art, release date, IGDB rating, developer/publisher, platforms and genres, plus a screenshot gallery whenever IGDB provided one.

Works as a plain blog too

Never install the Importer at all and GameSync Lite is still a normal, ordinary blog theme -- nothing about it depends on the plugin being active.

No settings screen

Everything configurable is a normal WordPress feature: logo and tagline, menus under Appearance -> Menus, two footer widget areas and one sidebar.

A fixed hero banner

Your site title and tagline up top, with a "Browse Games" button that appears automatically once you've imported at least one game.

Same data as PixelWire

Both themes read the same Game post type, meta and taxonomies -- switching to PixelWire later never means re-importing or re-tagging anything.

PRO

Want dark mode, a carousel, and more?

A GameSync WP Pro license unlocks PixelWire: the same games-and-blog layout with a light/dark/auto color scheme, a hero carousel, hand-picked featured games, an infinite-scroll grid/list toggle, colored per-genre tag pills, and a full sidebar everywhere -- plus the full versions of all three plugins. GameSync Lite keeps working fine either way; Pro just adds polish and scale on top of the same data.

Common questions

Does this theme require the GameSync WP Importer plugin?

No. Without it, GameSync Lite is a plain, working blog theme. With it active, the Games archive and single-game templates come alive automatically -- no theme configuration needed either way.

Can I add a dark mode or change the accent color?

Not in GameSync Lite -- that's one of the things a GameSync WP Pro license's PixelWire theme adds. Lite intentionally ships with one fixed, tested light scheme.

Will my content carry over if I upgrade to PixelWire?

Yes. Both themes read the same GameSync WP Importer post type, meta and taxonomies, so switching themes doesn't require re-importing or re-tagging anything.
