The signature moment
The credentials hang from one certificate stub
The broad main field begins with a heavy rule and a large two-line assurance statement. Three short proof records sit below. Beside it, a shorter verification copy begins lower, with a dashed seam, a large copy number, reference and review date. Unequal widths, stepped edges and the seam hold the document together without colour. On a phone, the proof records come before the verification stub.
Theme handoff
What comes from where
From your theme
The base uses the theme's base ground, contrast ink and label/link roles, each with a guaranteed fallback. The face and wide width belong to the theme; headings and links follow the root painter. Rules use currentColor.

Overview
An assurance section for a skilled trade, workshop or professional practice. It presents the evidence as one document rather than a collection of badges.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast
What it inherits from your theme
The base uses the theme's base ground, contrast ink and label/link roles, each with a guaranteed fallback. The face and wide width belong to the theme; headings and links follow the root painter. Rules use currentColor.
Display type and spacing
“Good work / On record.” uses a bare display clamp from 2.75rem to 5rem. The copy number uses a bare 3.5rem to 6rem clamp as the stub's visual mark. The stub heading uses the large rung and prose uses medium. Compact proof records and labels retain a 15px floor. The request link has 0.875rem vertical padding.
Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints
Styled look: Vellum and ultramarine
Vellum #F4F0E4, ink #242520 and ultramarine #253A95. Georgia carries the headings and prose; Courier sets proof references and the copy number. The document link is deliberately underlined, transparent, with a 3px radius. The inherited base supplies the theme-owned treatment. Body text is intended to meet 4.5:1 contrast and large display text 3:1.
Change first
All organisations and references are fictional examples, marked by “Sample record”, “Example” and DEMO references. Replace and verify every membership, insurer, policy, standard, reference and date before publishing. Do not treat the document styling or the copy number as an official certification badge. Set the document-request link to a real email or evidence page.
Core group, columns, column, heading, paragraph, buttons and button blocks only. No image, official logo, script, style block or font file.
Questions
Accreditation certificate stub: common questions
Does Accreditation certificate stub need a plugin?
No. It is built only from core WordPress blocks (button, buttons, column, columns, group, heading and paragraph), so it pastes into the block editor with nothing to install.
Will Accreditation certificate stub match my theme?
Choose by variation. Use my theme takes your theme’s palette; Vellum and ultramarine brings its own colours.
How many variations does Accreditation certificate stub have?
2: Use my theme and Vellum and ultramarine. Each is its own markup; choose one in the toolbar above the preview before you copy.
Is Accreditation certificate stub free?
It is included with a subscription, with every Core Pattern and variation. 62 Core Patterns are free to copy without one.
Which WordPress version does it need?
Requires a block theme on WordPress 7.0 to 7.1. Classic themes and page builders are outside our supported setup. Adaptive patterns use the block theme’s colour, spacing and typography presets; styled variations declare their own colours or type.
The markup
Core block markup and nothing else. Copy it, then paste it straight into the block editor: WordPress reads the delimiters and rebuilds the blocks.
