Looking Back at 2025, and What We’re Building Next

Another year is almost in the books, and looking back at 2025, it’s clear just how much changed.

At the start of the year, we had a long roadmap and an even longer list of requests from you. Some ideas landed exactly as planned. However, others pushed us in new directions. That balance ultimately shaped UiCore PRO throughout the year.

This recap covers what shipped, why it matters, and what we’re building next, so you can clearly see where UiCore PRO is heading.

What We Shipped in 2025

65 New Templates Built for Real Projects

Throughout the year, we released 65 new templates. Most of them focused on Local Services, simply because that’s where we saw the strongest demand.

More importantly, these weren’t just visual refreshes. Instead, each template was designed to be practical, conversion-focused, and easy to customize with Gutenberg or Elementor.

As a result, you can explore layouts that are ready for real projects inside the UiCore PRO templates library, where we continue adding new industries regularly.

Design Cloud: Faster Access to the Right Block

Design Cloud started with a simple observation. Finding the right block was taking too long.

So, we rebuilt the experience from the ground up. Today, Design Cloud lets you:

Search and filter blocks instantly
Save favorites for quick reuse
Focus on building instead of browsing

Because of this change, Design Cloud has become a core part of the workflow inside the UiCore PRO Layout Builder page, especially for users building multiple sites.

Gutenberg Builder That Feels Native

The Gutenberg Builder was one of the boldest moves we made this year.

Elementor still remains a powerful option, but many of you wanted something lighter and closer to WordPress core. We listened and built a fast, clean Gutenberg experience that feels native, not bolted on.

The result is a builder that loads quickly, respects WordPress standards, and integrates deeply with UiCore PRO modules.

If you are already using Gutenberg, this unlocks a much smoother way to build advanced layouts with UiCore PRO.

Better Features for Agencies

Agencies were a major focus in 2025.

We expanded white-label options to give you more control when working with clients. That includes:

Custom dashboards
Editable theme options
Cleaner client-facing experiences

Not only do these updates help agencies present UiCore PRO as part of their own workflow, but also distinguish it from being just another theme.

You can see how this works on the UiCore PRO product page.

Video Tutorials and Living Documentation

Not everyone wants to read documentation. Some prefer to watch.

This year, we started producing video tutorials, beginning with UiCore Blocks. These videos are designed to be short, practical, and easy to follow.

As features evolve, documentation continues to be updated alongside the videos, so both formats stay aligned.

The Community Side of UiCore PRO

At some point this year, UiCore PRO stopped being just about features and started being more about the people using them.

Customer Stories That Inspire

We launched the Customer Stories page to showcase what you’re actually building.

From agency sites to niche businesses, the quality and creativity surprised us. These stories are not case studies filled with buzzwords. They are real projects, built with real constraints.

They serve as inspiration and proof of what’s possible with UiCore PRO.

A Growing Facebook Community

The Facebook group was created to move beyond tickets and announcements.

It’s now a place where you can:

Ask questions
Share your work
Help other users
See early previews of what we’re building

That feedback loop has directly influenced multiple features released this year.

What’s Coming Next

2025 laid the groundwork. 2026 builds on it.

Advanced Animations with UiCore Animate

UiCore Animate is getting new animated backgrounds inspired by high-end interactive sites.

You will have full control over:

Animation behavior
Colors and effects
User interaction

Additionally, these tools are designed to stay performant while adding visual depth.

WooCommerce Improvements

WooCommerce is getting focused upgrades aimed at real store performance.

Expect improvements that help shops:

Load faster
Convert better
Integrate more cleanly with layouts

These updates are designed for practical e-commerce sites, not just demos.

New Theme Builder Widgets

We are adding advanced widgets for both Elementor and Gutenberg.

As a result, these widgets unlock layout and design options that were previously difficult or impossible to build without custom code.

They work seamlessly with existing UiCore PRO modules.

UiCore Blocks Evolution

UiCore Blocks remains our long-term investment.

The goal is simple. Make it the most powerful and flexible block system available, without sacrificing speed or usability.

Looking ahead, 2026 will bring major steps forward here, especially for Gutenberg-first workflows.

AI Website Builder

The AI Website Builder is evolving fast.

Right now, it converts existing sites. Next, it will generate complete websites from:

A short description
A Figma file
Even a single image

This feature is designed to accelerate early project stages, not replace creative control.

More Templates, Always

New industries. Fresh designs. Ready-to-use layouts.

Templates will continue to expand across niches, giving you a faster starting point for almost any project.

You can always browse the latest additions inside the UiCore PRO demo library.
