# Onigiri WordPress Theme for Portfolios

## The Onigiri Theme Overview

![The header of the Onigiri theme](https://elmastudio.de/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/onigiri-header-card.jpg)

Today we are so happy to be able to introduce our newest Portfolio WordPress Theme to you. [Onigiri](https://elmastudio.de/en/themes/onigiri/) ([Live Demo](https://themes.elmastudio.de/onigiri/)) is a responsive Portfolio theme for designers, artists, photographers and other creatives, who want to present their work in a *minimal, clean and arty* way. Of course the theme also has a default WordPress blog option, so you are able to create a “Latest News” stream or write a small diary or online journal on your website.

The About page is one of the highlights in the theme, since you can create your own **About page template** and then choose an individual background and text color, just for your About page. You can also use shortcodes and special CSS classes to design your *About page* even further and individualize it to your needs. Onigiri also comes with additional theme options in the WordPress customizer. Here you can for instance add a *header slogan* and include your contact details in the header.

## The Portfolio

To create the Portfolio in Onigiri you will need to install the free [Jetpack WordPress plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/). This is extremely important, if you ever want to switch to another theme using the Jetpack Portfolio feature.

**Portfolio projects in Onigiri**

In the *Onigiri theme* you can create an arty, open grid layout on your portfolio front page by including your projects “Featured Images” in different image sizes.

On single project pages further projects will be included below your project content. This way your visitors can easily look through your portfolio. Project images and other content can be included with the maximum size of 1280 pixels, using an extra div container with the CSS class *“wide-content”*.

This way you will have lots of flexible options to feature your portfolio projects, artwork or pictures in your desired size.

## About Page

Onigiri offers an elegant About page template, which gives you the option to choose an individual background and text color just for your About page. With the help of shortcodes and special CSS classes for text styles you can design your own, individual About page with a beautiful layout. You will find the color options for the About page under *Appearance / Customizer / Colors*.

## Theme Options

You can find further theme options under *Appearance / Customizer*. E.g. here you can include a **header slogan** or intro text and include your **contact details** (like your email address or phone number) in the header. You can also choose to *fix-position your logo* image or website title and hide the search form. Of course you will also find further color options. You can also upload your own logo image under *Appearance / Header*.
