About Metrodir – Directory & Listings HTML Template

Metrodir is a static HTML template for directory and listing websites. It is plain HTML, CSS and scripts, not a WordPress theme or a content system. The store files it under corporate, blog, portfolio, gallery and Directory Pro categories.

A static template shows how a directory could look, but it has no database, search or user accounts of its own. Listings, searching and submissions need to be built or connected separately. The listing doesn't describe its pages or components, so check the documentation in the package. The file on record dates from June 2020.

Key features

Static HTML5 pages

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

  • Developers prototyping a directory site front end
  • Designers who want a layout to connect to their own backend

Look elsewhere if

  • Anyone who wants working searches and listing submissions out of the box
  • WordPress users looking for a theme they can install and activate

How to install Metrodir – Directory & Listings HTML Template

  1. 1

    Download the file

    Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.

  2. 2

    Preview and edit

    Unzip the template and open the HTML files in a code editor. Text lives in the .html files; colours and fonts are in the CSS.

  3. 3

    Upload to your host

    Upload the template folder's contents to your site's public folder (often public_html) with your host's file manager or SFTP, keeping the folder structure intact.

Notes for this product

  • This is not a WordPress theme. Uploading the zip in the WordPress theme screen won't work; unzip it and open the HTML files.

Frequently asked questions

Is Metrodir a WordPress theme?

No. It is a static HTML template, not something you activate in WordPress.

Does it include working search and listings?

The listing doesn't say. A static template normally needs a separate backend for that.

Can I use it on any host?

Static HTML files run on any web host, but the listing doesn't state what scripts it uses.
