Theme Options UI Builder for WordPress. A simple way to create & save Theme Options and Meta Boxes for free or premium themes.
== Description ==
Theme Options are what make a WordPress Theme truly custom. OptionTree attempts to bridge the gap between developers, designers and end-users by solving the admin User Interface issues that arise when creating a custom theme. Designers shouldn't have to be limited to what they can create visually because their programming skills aren't as developed as they would like. Also, programmers shouldn't have to recreate the wheel for every new project, so in walks OptionTree.
With OptionTree you can create as many Theme Options as your project requires and use them how you see fit. When you add a option to the Settings page, it will be available on the Theme Options page for use in your theme.
Included is the ability to Import/Export all the theme options and data for packaging with custom themes or local development. With the Import/Export feature you can get a theme set up on a live server in minutes. Theme authors can now create different version of their themes and include them with the download. It makes setting up different theme styles & options easier than ever because a theme user installs the plugin and theme and either adds their own settings or imports your defaults.
A new feature in OptionTree 2.0 is the ability to include the plugin directly in your themes root directory. Not only does that mean your theme is guaranteed to have the plugin installed you also get the ability to interact directly with OptionTree through settings and meta box arrays. You can now tell OptionTree what settings you want and know that nobody will break your theme by changing settings through the UI Builder. It's just a better plugin now!
OptionTree is a project sponsored by <a href="http://themeforest.net/?ref=valendesigns">ThemeForest</a>, the largest WordPress theme marketplace on the web, and was originally conceived to help ThemeForest authors quickly power up their themes. But it's here for the benefit of one and all, so option up folks!
