Hey all,

 

Does anyone know of any good WP Theme Customization API tutorials that get in depth on how to add options/settings etc. I have found some but they dont really go into great depth, just showing the possibilities I have found one and copied the code directly and still no extra options are appearing.

 

Any directions to this would be great

 

 

I have managed to get the options to appear in the theme customization bar but I cant get the color to be inputed into the style tag using the get_theme_mod function. When I look at the source its empty - could someone look at the code and see why its not working?

 

 

<?php

function themename_customize_register($wp_customize){

$theme = wp_get_theme();

$wp_customize->add_section('colouring_section', array(

'title' => __('Color Scheme', $theme->name),

'priority' => 10,

));

// =============================

// = Color Picker =

// =============================

$wp_customize->add_setting('square_setting[text_color]', array(

'default' => 'red',

'capability' => 'edit_theme_options',

'type' => 'option',

'transform' => 'refresh'

));

$wp_customize->add_control( new WP_Customize_Color_Control($wp_customize, 'text_color', array(

'label' => __('Link Color', $theme->name),

'section' => 'colouring_section',

'settings' => 'square_setting[text_color]',

)));

}

add_action('customize_register', 'themename_customize_register');

function mytheme_customize_css()

{

?>

<style type="text/css">

p { color:<?php echo get_theme_mod('text_color'); ?>; }

</style>

<?php

}

add_action( 'wp_head', 'mytheme_customize_css');
