A bold industrial theme for construction, civil engineering and contractors: project portfolios, capabilities, safety record and big numbers set in condensed type.

== Description ==

Ironbridge is a block theme for general contractors, civil and structural engineering firms, builders and fit-out companies. Concrete grey pages, near-black bands, safety yellow fills, hazard stripe dividers, chamfered plates and huge condensed numerals that count up.

* Projects with a drawing-style spec sheet (client, sector, location, programme, year), the challenge, solution and results, site photo carousel and related projects in the same sector.
* A project finder: search, filter by sector or capability and sort by year, on the archive and as a pattern.
* Capabilities with icons, prices, what's included, delivery steps, questions and an inquiry form.
* Leadership profiles on black cards, a company timeline, a safety record band with accreditations, a sectors index with project counts.
* "Invite us to tender" form (scope list fills itself from your capabilities), an inquiry form, a news signup. Messages are stored under Messages in wp-admin and emailed to you.
* Five heroes, about 30 patterns, five full page layouts (home, about, projects, careers, contact) and a Careers page template.
* Light concrete and Night Shift dark scheme with a switch in the header, plus Hi-Vis Orange, Blueprint and Steel style variations.
* No page builder. Business content uses the free Secure Custom Fields plugin for editing; pages render without it.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Where do form messages go? =

Every form submission is saved under Messages in wp-admin and emailed to the site administrator. Change the recipients under Messages → Settings, or per form in the form block's settings.

= Where do I set the phone number, address and opening hours? =

Under Business → Business details. The header's utility bar, the footer, the contact block, the map and the "Invite us to tender" buttons read them from there.

= How do I add a project code like PRJ-2031? =

Set the project's Year field: Ironbridge shows it as the project code on cards, panels and the project page.

= Can I turn off the animations? =

Visitors who ask their system for reduced motion see everything without animation. You can remove motion classes from any block in the editor's Motion panel.

= Dark mode? =

The header switch toggles between the concrete light scheme and Night Shift, and remembers the choice. Choose the Night Shift style variation to make the site dark for everyone.
