ProDocs: A Sleek, Customizable Theme for Knowledge Management
ProDocs offers a modern and flexible foundation for creating high-quality documentation websites. With full compatibility for Publii plugins like syntax highlighting, search, or with auto-generated table of contents, it enables a clean, accessible, and customizable reading experience that adapts seamlessly across devices.
Customisable Post Listing Layouts
A bespoke block layout lets you control the appearance of your article previews, with a multitude of toggles to display the title, date, text, author name, and more, with each type of post listing, such as tag, author and the frontpage boasting its own set of options. Create unique layouts for each type, and take advantage of special frontpage-specific options, including a featured and latest articles section.
Auto-Generate a Table of Contents for your posts
For longer documentation, ProDocs includes a TOC generator that automatically creates a full table of contents in the right sidebar, with individual anchor links to each header element in the post. The header range is user-specified, so you can choose whether you want to link to all subsections individually, the main Header 2 elements, or anything in between.
Light and Dark Color Modes
The ProDocs theme introduces two distinct color scheme modes: Light Mode and Dark Mode. Users can select their preferred mode or choose the Auto option, which adjusts the color scheme to match the user’s operating system settings. If the operating system doesn’t support auto-detection, the theme defaults to Light Mode.
The theme offers six unique color schemes for each mode:
- Light Mode: Blue, Brown, Gray, Green, Mint, and Soft Lavender.
- Dark Mode: Blue, Brown, Green, Midnight Navy, Olive Shadow, and Stormy Night.
You can customize the color schemes directly from the user interface or by modifying CSS variables. The UI allows quick adjustments to base and accent colors without requiring any coding knowledge. For advanced users, the option to create entirely custom color schemes by directly editing the CSS provides maximum flexibility.
This setup ensures that users can tailor their ProDocs theme to meet branding requirements or personal preferences, delivering a professional and visually consistent experience.
Highlight your Code with Prism.js
Discover an enhanced way of showcasing code on your website with the Publii Syntax Highlighter plugin. Through its modern approach to presentation, this plugin renders code more readable and visually striking. Its clear and crisp design aids developers and readers alike in quickly grasping the information, fostering a more intuitive content creation process. But it’s not all about aesthetics; the plugin also boasts a variety of customization options, letting you tweak the appearance of code snippets to suit individual preferences.
Navigation Made Easy with a SideNav Menu
When there’s a lot of documentation to read through, users will want to be able to find what they need fast. ProDocs includes a SideNav menu in the left sidebar that’s always available, with collapsible submenus for a cleaner, clearer layout.
Fluid typography provides readable text on any screen
Like all Publii themes, ProDocs includes a variety of typography options such as warnings, buttons, and tip-boxes to clearly-separate your content, and makes use of Fluid Typography to resize text to precisely fit the screen size, making it clear and readable no matter what device is being used.
User-Friendly Newsletter PopUp
Newsletters are a simple way to engage with your users. ProDocs includes an unobtrusive newsletter popup to encourage sign-ups without getting in the way of the reading experience. With multiple customizable options, you can decide exactly when and why it should appear.

Lightweight for a hyper-fast load time
Speed is of the essence when you're looking for answers, so our themes do not use jQuery libraries or CSS frameworks; just pure JavaScript and custom CSS for shorter load-times. For subtle scroll animations, we include the lightweight Motion library, which uses native browser APIs and adds no unnecessary overhead. You won't need to worry about FOUT or FOIT effects in your text either, as you can use system default fonts for instant, stable rendering.
Get 3 months of professional support
Getting started with a new theme on a new website can be a challenge, but our experts are here to help. Every purchase of the commercial theme includes three months of support through our dedicated ticket system, so you'll have efficient and effective assistance with any issues you run into.
