Headway introduced the world’s first true Visual Editor for designing WordPress sites and turned the world of theme frameworks on its head. Now, with Headway 3, we’ve done it again. Not only is the Visual Editor more powerful than ever, there is an entirely new Grid Layout System to create your web page structure.
Easily Create Page Structure with the Headway Grid Layout System
What could possibly be the easiest way ever to design a web page? What if you could just click and drag to draw boxes?
That’s how Headway 3′s Grid Layout System and Blocks work, and nothing could be simpler or easier. You don’t have to write any code to get sophisticated layouts: just click and drag.
When you draw a Block, Headway will ask you what kind of Block it’s supposed to be: Header? Navigation? Content? Widget Area (Sidebar)? Choose whatever you need and instantly your Block is created right there on the page. And don’t worry, if you change your mind, you can change Blocks from one type to another—no need to delete them and start over.
Once you’ve created the overall structure of Blocks in the Grid Layout System, it’s then just a matter jazzing it up with visual styles that fit your brand.

Create Beautiful Webpage Designs Without Writing Code
Once you’ve got your Blocks laid out, you can use the Headway visual editor to set the visual appearance of the Blocks. The totally redesigned Visual Editor makes it possible to drill down to any element on the page to style it a number of ways:
- Fonts
- Text, border and background colors
- Rounded corners
- Border styles
- Background images
- Line height and letter spacing
- Text and box drop-shadows
- Styles for various states of hyperlinks (hover, clicked on, etc.)

The possibilities for what you can do before you even need to think about writing a single line of custom CSS, HTML or PHP in Headway 3 is astonishing. Headway’s Visual Editor and Grid Layout System is what makes this possible. It’s what makes Headway… Headway.
