While Creating, custom theme, you have to assign the name for your theme like in url-ready format which means while creating new WordPress theme folder, as you give name for your folder, you can not add spaces, instead you use dashes and only lowercase letters. like "your-custom-theme" instead of "Your Custom Theme". After creating theme folder WordPress needs two files known as index.php and style.css
Giving Theme info in style.css
Now, we are talking about providing theme information within the style.css file. WordPress accepts theme info in style.css file as a multiline comment. /* Your theme info, each in a new line */
The template looks something like this
/* Theme Name: Your Custom Theme Name Theme URI: https://uri-that-can-be-attached-to-theme-name Author: Menfesawi Author URI: https://uri-that-can-be-attached-to-author-name Version: 1.0.0 Description: Your description about the theme. Requires at least: 6.0 Tested up to: 6.4 Requires PHP: 7.3 License: License here License URI: http://uri-of-the-license.html Text Domain: domain Tags: tag 1, Tag 2, Tag 3 ... */
After saving the info you provided, the theme info will look like this in wordpress.
Adding Theme screenshot image as theme info
Still now, we have added theme info like: Theme Name, Author, Version & Description finally you have to attach screenshot of your them as a theme image to finally look like this.
To do so, add a png image named “screenshot.png” exactly inside your url-ready theme folder which is located wp-content/themes/your-custom-theme
The screenshot.png image has to be 1,200px width and 900px height exactly
