NEW: Microthemer Lite has just been released. Try it for free! Microloader provides all the essential functionality for installing and managing “Micro Themes”. Micro Themes are created with the premium plugin “Microthemer“. A Micro Theme is a way of overriding a WordPress theme or plugin’s default styling. Micro Themes are a bit like CSS-only Child Themes. The real difference is when you load Micro Themes with Microloader’s premium counterpart, Microthemer. When a Micro Theme is loaded with Microthemer, all the CSS styles are editable via a WordPress admin screen designed specifically for non-technical users. Microloader doesn’t have this functionality. It has been released as a free plugin for people who would like to download a new skin (Micro Theme) for their favourite WordPress Theme or plugin (e.g. Contact Form 7) and be done with it. Free, GPL Plugin Skins Themeover’s inital offering of free GPL plugin skins is a number of colorful designs for the popluar Contact Form 7 plugin. Many more are sure to follow. Subscribe to Themeover’s Newsletter to stay up-to-date. Micro Theme Marketplace Themeover will also be releasing premium skins (Micro Themes) for regular WordPress themes. The “Headline” Micro Theme for Thematic servers an example of what’s to come. We welcome contributions from theme authors to our alternative Micro Theme marketplace. So What’s Microthemer Then? Watch the Microthemer demo videos to get a quick idea of just how powerful this design tool is. Is This Plugin Supported? Yes! Post any questions in the WordPress-hosted forum for this plugin.
