Microthemer 1.4.1 Powerful Visual Design CSS Plugin for Customizing WordPress Themes & Plugins

Microthemer Premium WordPress Plugin

$45

Microthemer is a premium WordPress CSS plugin. Microthemer gives WordPress administrators design control over their website or blog without requiring them to learn HTML or CSS code. The videos below illustrate how Microthemer works.

Main Features

  • Customise the design of your theme via a WordPress admin screen (the Microthemer UI), negating the need to learn CSS or HMTL code.
  • Install Micro Themes created by professional designers and then customise them via the Microthemer UI
  • An intuitive visual editing mode that loads editing options over the top of your website (so you can always see what you’re editing)
  • Export a Micro Theme you’ve created as a zip file for sale on the Themeover marketplace in one click. Or, email it to friends who can load it for free with Microloader.
  • A growing repository of free, GPL licensed “Blank Slate” Micro Themes are available to help non-web designers customise themes from scratch and theme authors create saleable Micro Themes in no time at all
  • A growing repository of free, GPL licensed designs (Plugin Styles) for plugin content (e.g. skins for the popular Contact Form 7 plugin)
  • A growing repository of free, GPL licensed “Graphics Packs” for including background images in your designs (e.g. opaque coloured backgrounds)
  • A non-watered down choice of theme styling options (60+ CSS properties). The ultimate visual WordPress CSS plugin.
  • Cross-browser support for rounded corners, box-shadow and linear gradients (with the help of CSS3 PIE)
  • Colour-picker for defining colour values (so you don’t need to remember hex codes)
  • Upload and resize background images which can be incorporated into your design
  • Create a library of Micro Themes which can be imported at will – great for trying out different versions of designs
  • A learning aid for aspiring front-end designers who prefer immediate gratification and a soft learning curve.
  • Nonce security to ensure this plugin doesn’t create any security holes in your WordPress installation
  • Surprisingly light-weight. For such a powerful plugin, Microthemer is very soft-footed. Unlike many other plugins, 95% of the code doesn’t load on non-Microthemer plugin pages – so it won’t slow down your site or admin area.
  • Auto-update feature – update Microthemer from your WordPress dashboard like any regular WordPress plugin
  • Flexible interface that lets you merge your library of archived designs (e.g. Menu Styling) how ever you want
  • Revision History – if you make a mistake you can easily roll back to a previous save (the past 20 saves are remembered)

Screenshots

The Microthemer User Interface (default view)
The Microthemer User interface (UI) provides color pickers and menus for applying CSS styles to your theme without having to understand the CSS code it generates for you. For every element of a web page you want to style, Microthemer gives you over 60 styling options, including: font family, line height, text shadow, text color, background images, background image position, width, height, padding, border, margin, position, background gradients, rounded corners and box shadow.

The Microthemer User Interface (visual view – part 1)
The Microthemer UI has a visual editing view consisting of a large preview window where you can see your website/blog and some editing controls at the bottom.

The Microthemer User Interface (visual view – part 2)
Microthemer’s visual view style editing options can be temporarily loaded over the top of the website preview window with the preview still being slightly visible in the background. This visual editing view is what makes Microthemer the number 1 WordPress CSS plugin.

CSS3 Options, Integration with CSS3 PIE
Microthemer comes with CSS3 styling options and is pre-integrated with CSS3PIE for Internet Explorer. This means that you can easily apply gradients, rounded corners, and box-shadow to your web page elements in a cross-browser compliant way.

Create Different Design Versions – Re-import Any Time or Share!
Microthemer gives you the option to export your design to a design library of “Micro Themes”. This is great news is you want to try out a number of different design versions without having to delete your previous work. Furthermore, this ability to export your designs means that you can share your designs with others (who can load your design for free with Microloader) or sell your designs on Themeover’s Micro Theme Marketplace.

Micro Theme Management Options

You can also upload and resize images that you would like to incorporate in your designs. For Micro Theme authors, Microthemer even provides in-program options for adding meta information and providing end users with helpful instructions.

Changelog

1.4.1 (Dec 5, 2012)

# Bugs Fixed
* The angle of CSS3 linear gradients was not consistent across browsers.

1.4 (Sept 6, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Revision History – Settings can now be restored from the previous 20 user actions that changed the Microthemer UI settings (e.g. saving, importing, resetting, activating a micro theme). Useful for undoing any mistakes or recovering from a glitch in the UI.

# Bugs Fixed
* Resetting the Microthemer UI and clearing styles didn’t automatically update the active-styles.css stylesheet to reflect the new state of affairs (an additional save was required to do this).

1.3.8 (Aug 5, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Microthemer now has a better method of ensuring that it’s stylesheet loads after other stylesheets (so that it can override styles without resorting to !important).
* If Microthemer encounters a problem when trying to save your settings, it will prompt you to email an error report to Themeover. We can use these reports to diagnose problems and release fixes quickly.

# Bugs Fixed
* CSS Property description popup was missing for the custom background image position values.
* Selector Editing options in visual view didn’t appear when switching selector under some conditions.
* When using the “Next” and “Previous” buttons in the visual view, dynamically added sections were missed out.
* Fixed some issues with the “Enable sortable sections/selectors” buttons. They didn’t always appear or disappear when they were meant to.
* Dynamically created sections didn’t have the selective export checkbox

1.3.2 (July 21, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Microthemer can now be used on Multisite WordPress installs thanks to Abland’s work: http://themeover.com/forum/topic/settings-options-in-admin/
* After closing the visual view, scrolling to the last edited or triggering selector is now 4 x faster.
* Updated colorbox (for loading visual view) to version 1.3.19 with faster set up procedure

# Bugs Fixed
* When merging settings in the Microthemer UI, the active theme is set to “Custom Configuration” to more accurately describe the action taken by the user (it used to be set to the theme being imported, which didn’t make much sense).
* Renaming a Section was not working. This resulted in downstream errors that negatively affected the Microthemer UI.
* Javascript errors in the Microthemer UI may result in selectors being malformed. In turn, this can create problems saving your settings. Whenever we identify JS errors we fix them. However, we wanted to implement a contingency plan. So now Microthemer looks for malformed selectors and alerts you to exactly which selector you need to delete in order to restore normal functionality.
* Fixed a JS error that occurred after modifying a selector in the visual view under some circumstances
* After closing the visual view, the window didn’t scroll to the triggering selector if nothing was edited.

1.3 (June 7, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Made the textarea for entering CSS selector code full width as I found it often needed manually resizing
* Added option to manually add !important declaration on a per style basis.
* When exporting to a new Micro Theme, the new theme is also available in the import select menu. Useful for when you want to selectively export sections and then easily copy them back into the UI using import with merge (no naming conflicts occur when you do this).
* Updated CSS3 PIE to version 1.0 – first non-beta release.
* You can now specify custom x-axis and y-axis units for background image position
* Added an option to clear CSS style definitions in the Microthemer UI while keeping the sections and selectors intact. It’s a useful way to easily update a Blank Slate Micro Theme after discovering the need for additional selectors during the design process.
* (minor) Moved dependent css styles condition into seperate function for more flexible use

# Bugs Fixed
* Renaming a selector that has the same name as it’s parent section caused javascript errors in the Microthemer UI which presented as buttons not working etc.
* Under some circumstances, installing a Micro Theme resulted in the Theme being renamed as “None”.
* When a Theme enqueues it’s stylesheets there is a possibility that it’s stylesheets will be called after Microthemer’s stylesheet. Microthemer now checks the name of the theme so that it can specify which stylesheets should load BEFORE the Microthemer stylesheet. This was found to be necessary after adding support for ClassiPress.
* Selective export checkbox disappeared after renaming a section
* When Microthemer checks for incorrect image paths, it presented the same image multiple times if it was used multiple times in the design.

1.1.9 (Apr 24, 2012)

# Bugs Fixed
* When trying to activate Microthemer, on some servers this caused the following error message: Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration

1.1.8 (Apr 19, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Files in Manage Themes table are organised alphabetically now.

# Bugs Fixed

1.1.7 (March 27, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Background image lists are now organised alphabetically
* Microthemer reminds you to activate the automatic update checker so that you can always have the most feature-rich and bug-free version of Microthemer

# Enhancement
* HTML can now be added to the Readme.txt instructions textarea
* Micro Themes can be merged together by an additional import method in the Microthemer UI
* Microthemer UI Sections can be selectively exported to a Micro Theme – useful when combined with the merge method

# Bugs Fixed
* No code was changed, but a procedural problem to do with the plugin directory name changing with updates was found. This caused problems with CSS3 styles in Internet Explorer. The fix is provided in this forum topic.

1.1.2 (March 12, 2012)

# Enhancement
* Auto-update feature added (needs activating on Preferences page)
* Added ‘visibility’ and ‘cursor’ CSS properties to the behaviour group in the microthemer UI

# Bugs Fixed
* The text-transform “capitalize” property was mis-spelt with an “s” so didn’t work
* A call to an undefined jQuery object in jquery.overlay.js caused javascript problems
* On Windows Servers, erroneous https URLs caused server to hang
* Microthemer erroneously offerred to copy background images that were set to ‘none’ to a newly exported Micro Theme
* WordPress admin bar only hidden on Microthemer pages when visual view loads in Microthemer UI
* Creating a new theme from the Manage Themes page wasn’t generating the necessary config.json file
* Auto-adding classes to first and last menu item can now be disabled via the preference page if it causes problems

1.0.7 (March 2, 2012)
