Overview

Customizing a Genesis child theme often means moving between visual settings and hand-written code. Genesis DevKit Plugin puts both in one place. A point-and-click interface offers hundreds of design options for adjusting colors, fonts and layouts, so many changes need no code at all. When you do want to write code, the custom coding tools let you add styles, functions and scripts in a controlled way.

The plugin also covers the practical side of theme work. You can create or clone child themes, open the files and folders of your active child theme in a full theme editor, and upload, rename or delete theme images. Starter themes named DevKit Parallax, DevKit Promote and DevKit Impress give new projects a designed starting point. It fits designers, developers and site owners who build on Genesis.

Features

  • Point-and-click design interface: Hundreds of design options sit in a visual interface, so you can adjust colors, fonts and layouts on a Genesis child theme without writing code.
  • Custom coding tools: Add your own styles, functions and scripts through built-in tools made for custom code, which keeps hand-written changes organized next to the visual settings.
  • Full theme editor: Open and edit the files and folders of your active Genesis child theme from within WordPress, for changes that go beyond the visual options.
  • Theme image manager: Upload, rename and delete the images that belong to your active child theme from one screen, without using an outside file tool.
  • Child theme creator: Create a new Genesis child theme or clone an existing one, which gives each project its own base to customize.
  • DevKit starter themes: Premium starter themes such as DevKit Parallax, DevKit Promote and DevKit Impress provide professionally designed templates to begin a new site from.
  • Use on multiple Genesis sites: The plugin can run on as many Genesis-powered sites as you need, which suits freelancers and developers who manage several client projects.
