Notice: this information was written when Microthemer version 2 was current. On Dec 26th, 2014 version 3 was released with a completely new interface. Some of the information may be redundant, but as much of
the functionality remains the same in version 3 we haven't deleted this post.
When I’m exporting an Artisteer generated theme I usually remove the “art-” from the css files.
That makes Blank Artisteer 1.0 not working as expected because Microthemer cannot “recognize” the specific Artisteer tags.
So I made a version of Blank Artisteer which works in such situation.
I will submit it to the Theme Packs repository.
Thank you very much for submitting a modified version of our Blank Artisteer Micro Theme. Before I publish it, I just have a few questions.
1. Why do you usually remove the “art-” from the css files?
2. Do you think many other Artisteer users remove “art-” from the css files too?
I just need to make sure that people don’t download the wrong Blank Artisteer Micro Theme for their particular needs. Depending on your answer to my questions, I may just create a blog post for downloading your alternative version which would also explain why it might be useful. I would link to this post from the current Blank Artisteer details page.
1. Because I think that css files look better, are more compatible and IMHO it doesn’t offer any advantage.
2. I’m not sure but actually I read this tip in Artisteer forums.
I think that the blog post idea is the best solution.
BTW Microthemer is a very good plugin and I think it has a great potential.
Hey Seb,
Just for the record, I’m a relatively new (3 months) Artisteer user and I started off by renaming my prefix just to personalise the theme, but now remove it for the same reasons as Kehyian. It’s just a seemingly useless piece of the code. I would think that if we both do this, many others do also.
Regards,
Jon.
