How to Download GutenMag
GutenMag is available for download here at Ultrapack. Once you’ve downloaded the .zip file, install it under Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme, select the file, and activate. After activation, the customization options show up in the Customizer and the theme’s blocks become available in the Gutenberg editor.
