Theme Editor: Breakdown
The Theme Editor plugin is a free WordPress plugin that can be installed and activated directly from the WordPress dashboard. Once activated, a new menu option will be added to the dashboard titled “Theme Editor”. This is where all the customization options are located. It shows all the active themes that are currently installed on the WordPress site, as well as all the files for each theme. Users can select any theme file to edit, including the style.css file which contains all the styling information.
The plugin is very easy to use, with drag-and-drop functionality, and an intuitive point-and-click interface. All changes made with the plugin are automatically applied to the theme as soon as they are saved. The plugin also has a built-in text editor that allows users to edit the theme’s HTML and CSS code as needed. In addition, the plugin allows users to add custom functions, classes, and styles to the theme.
For those users who need to customize their sites even further, the plugin also includes a “Customize” option. This option allows users to create custom backgrounds, menus, widgets, and more. It has an intuitive interface with advanced options, and users can preview their changes before committing them.
