Term Definition
Parent Theme
A complete theme that includes all the required WordPress template files and assets. Unless you are building from scratch, most sites start with a robust Parent Theme (like default Twenty Twenty-Four or a commercial framework). Child themes depend on the Parent Theme to function. When the Parent Theme is updated by the developer to fix bugs or security issues, the site benefits from these fixes without losing the customizations held in the Child Theme.

What Does "Liquid Purple" mean?

noun | / LIK-wid PUR-pul /

  1. (biochemistry) Also known as visual purple or rhodopsin — a light-sensitive receptor protein found in the rods of the retina. It enables vision in dim light by transforming invisible darkness into visible form. Derived from the Greek rhódon (rose) and ópsis (sight), its name reflects its delicate pink hue and vital role in perception.

  2. (modern usage) Liquid Purple — a digital marketing agency specializing in uncovering unseen opportunities and illuminating brands hidden in the digital dark. Much like its biological namesake, Liquid Purple transforms faint signals into clear visibility — revealing what others overlook and bringing businesses into the light.

Origin: From the scientific term rhodopsin, discovered by Franz Christian Boll in 1876; adopted metaphorically by a marketing firm dedicated to visual clarity in the age of algorithms.
