Why Should Theme Developers Take This Course?

The problem with most theme options is that they do not follow the coding standards or best practices only confusing web designers who use them.

The Theme Customizer is the best way to create a consistent look and feel between themes while following best practices and allows the user to customize your theme in a more comfortable editing environment.

In this course, I teach you to take your theme development to the very next level by not only teaching you how to add theme options using the customizer, but also how to tap into WordPress posts, pages, custom fields and more to help users make the changes all in one place.

Code samples are available with most videos in this course!

I also give you the code after each video to help you program the different features and sections. Several assignments and quizzes to test your knowledge.
