I&#39;m releasing something I&#39;ve been working on for quite a few days and that has turned into something even cooler than what I was planning at first. Introducing &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/my-projects\/wordpress-theme-toolkit-admin-menu\/\">WordPress Theme Toolkit<\/a> : Helps theme authors adding an admin menu. Helps theme users customise their blogs.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/my-projects\/wordpress-theme-toolkit-admin-menu\/\">WordPress Theme Toolkit<\/a> is for theme creators : it allows adding an admin menu into a theme <strong>as easily as editing 3 lines in a file<\/strong>. Most users can&#39;t tell the difference between an HTML tag and a PHP tag, so why not give them control over their blog layout through a clean admin menu ? Days of shipping theme files that the end user will have to edit to customize things are over !<\/p>\n<p>As an example of what <a href=\"http:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/my-projects\/wordpress-theme-toolkit-admin-menu\/\">WordPress Theme Toolkit<\/a> makes possible, I&#39;m releasing another stuff : <a href=\"http:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/my-projects\/wordpress-theme-minimalissimplistic\/\">Minimalissimplistic<\/a>, a minimalist elastic theme that comes with interesting additionnal features you will manage from an admin menu. The point here is not to show how cool these features are, but how <strong>simple<\/strong> it has been to implement them into the theme thanks to the Toolkit. Simple&#8230; as editing 3 lines.<\/p>\n<p>I&#39;ve intensively tested <a href=\"http:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/my-projects\/wordpress-theme-toolkit-admin-menu\/\">WordPress Theme Toolkit<\/a> in every situation I could think of, and as far as I can tell, it&#39;s working like a charm. On a side note, I&#39;ll add that this project has been my training grounds for learning PHP classes, and the result is very satisfying :)<\/p>\n<p>So, now that I think that it&#39;s working fine, I want feedback ! Is it cool ? Useful ? Easy to use ? Theme authors &#8230; your turn now, make something with it !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Double release today : a Theme, and something to help theme authors adding an admin menu to their theme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[2,10,85,245,108],"class_list":["post-337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-code","tag-php","tag-plugins","tag-wordpress","tag-wordpress-theme"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=337"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/planetozh.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
