Our AMPFace WordPress theme works perfectly with the official WordPress AMP Plugin, in particular using “Transitional” or “Native” mode. If you have installed AMPFace (or indeed any other theme) you can use the guide below to get your website AMP valid in a matter of minutes.

1. From your WordPress dashboard hover over the “Plugins” menu item and then click on the “Add Plugin” option. (

3. When you see the search result look for the plugin titled simply “AMP”, which lists “AMP Project Contributors” as the author. (
