What Quietype is for
Quietype is a block theme for people who mostly write: essays, newsletters, personal blogs. Every template is a single column capped at 42rem — roughly sixty-eight characters a line — with no sidebar and no widget areas, so a post page is the post and little else.
Typography uses system font stacks and a fluid size scale, so text renders on the first paint without downloading a font. A second palette switches on automatically when a visitor's device is set to dark mode, and printing a post strips the navigation and spells out link addresses.
It ships five templates (index, single, page, archive, 404), two template parts (header and footer) and four block styles. There are no patterns to learn and no settings screen; design changes happen in Appearance → Editor.
Who it suits
Writers who want long posts to read comfortably on any screen, and who would rather have no sidebar, no widgets and no third-party requests than a page full of options.
Quietype 都有什么
- 阅读行宽锁定在约 68 字符（42rem 的 contentSize），行高 1.7，并采用流式的 clamp() 字号层级，从 13px 的图注一直到 52px 的展示字号。
- 自动明暗模式：theme.json 中的每种颜色都以预设自定义属性的形式引用，因此仅用一条 prefers-color-scheme 覆盖规则，就能翻转整个站点和编辑器画布的配色。两套配色均通过 WCAG AA。
- 零网络请求：仅使用系统的衬线、无衬线和等宽字体栈。没有 Google Fonts、没有图标 CDN、没有捆绑插件、不推销升级、不做追踪。
- 无障碍就绪：核心跳转链接（每个模板都暴露一个真正的 <main> 地标区域）、带 :focus 回退的 :focus-visible 轮廓、语义化的 header/main/article/footer 标签，以及对 prefers-reduced-motion 的处理。
- 四种专为随笔打造的自定义区块样式：Hairline（细线）与 Asterism（星标）分隔线、Framed（带框）图像，以及 Plain（无线条）引用——外加一个真正落在基线上的首字下沉。
- 提供打印样式表，去除页面的界面装饰（导航、页眉页脚等），并在正文中展开链接的完整 URL——因为长文读者仍然会打印页面。

Good to know before you install

常见问题
Quietype 常见问题
What does Quietype need to run?
WordPress 6.5 or later and PHP 7.4 or later, according to its style.css, which also says it was tested up to WordPress 6.8. The current version is 1.0.0.
Does Quietype load any external fonts or scripts?
No. It enqueues only its own stylesheet and uses system serif, sans-serif and monospace font stacks, so it makes no requests to Google Fonts or any other CDN.
How does the Quietype dark mode work?
It follows the visitor's operating-system preference through a prefers-color-scheme media query, which swaps the palette for the site and the editor canvas. There is no toggle button. Text colours in both palettes measure above the WCAG AA contrast ratio of 4.5:1 against their backgrounds.
Can I add a sidebar or widgets to Quietype?
Not out of the box — the layout is deliberately one column and the theme registers no widget areas. You can add blocks to the header or footer template parts in the Site Editor, but a sidebar works against what the theme is for.
Can I remove the Quietype footer credit?
Yes. Open Appearance → Editor → Patterns → Template Parts → Footer, delete the paragraph with the credit and save. Nothing depends on it.
