Menus
Menus can be created/mapped on a per theme basis and global menus can be created which will be used in the event that the menus are not mapped for the selected theme.
- Individual Theme Menus can be set up. To do so :
- Turn on “Apply in admin” under
Settings -> Theme Catalog
- Use the page you have the selector on to switch to the desired theme.
- Go to
Appearance -> Menus
and set up menus as you wish - Repeat steps 2 & 4 for all the themes you want to individually map.
- Turn off “Apply in admin” under
Settings -> Theme Catalog
- Turn on “Apply in admin” under
- Global Theme Menus can be created by creating menus named “theme_catalog_menu_1” “theme_catalog_menu_2” etc. Menus will be populated into loaded theme in the order they are encountered.
Widgets
Widgets can only be handled on a per theme basis. To do so :
- Turn on “Apply in admin” under
Settings -> Theme Catalog
- Use the page you have the selector on to switch to the desired theme.
- Go to
Appearance -> Widgets
and set up widgets as you wish - Repeat steps 2 & 4 for all the themes you want to individually map.
- Turn off “Apply in admin” under
Settings -> Theme Catalog
Issues
iThemes Builder themes and Artisteer themes (and I’m sure there are others) bypass WordPress’ wp_nav_menu function, so can not use global menus. You must use individual menu mapping for these.
TO DO
- Add ‘include’ & ‘exclude’ attributes
- Build a tool for bulk mapping theme menus.
- Allow sidebars (widget areas) to be created and mapped on a per theme basis or globally

常見問題
- My theme screenshots are not loading!
-
Did you specify
screenshots='false'
ordisplay_screenshot='false'
?If not, there is a good chance your theme is not properly calling wp_footer(). To solve this problem, you need to either :
- Turn off lazy loading by adding
lazyload='false'
to your shortcode - load
lazyload
in your site’s header by going toSettings -> Theme Catalog
and change “Lazyload in header” to “yes”.
- Turn off lazy loading by adding
- What is “plugin prefix” in the settings?
-
This allows you to change the prefix used in the shortcode, url parameters, session variables and css classes. Changing it would reset all of your visitors back to your default theme, but would also require you to edit your shortcode. Unless you are having problems you should never need to change this.
