New ThemeShift Themes Admin Panel in the Making

written by Simon [TS] on March 8, 2010 - 4 Comments

Finally I found the time to code the new ThemeShift admin panel for my themes. Among other improvements the new theme options panel comes with a super easy custom logo uploader, toggleable options boxes and useful direct links to additional theme information.

The new ThemeShift theme options admin panel will definately improve your WordPress backend browsing experience. It will be published for the first time with my new dark personal blog theme deLirium. Release is scheduled for coming thursday March 11. All the other themes will be updated one by one.

Theme Options Page

The new options panel is organized in comprehensive sections that can be opened or closed with a neat toggle effect. The current status of each box will be saved in a cookie. That means that when you leave the options page and come back in another occasion, you will find the panel just like you left it.

I also included an overdue custom logo uploader and a logo preview. You can enter an image URL or add a new logo image using the image uploader on the theme options page.

Theme Overview

In the new menu item you will also find the link TS Themes that takes you to a page with an overview over the latest ThemeShift themes with a short description and useful links to the theme pages.

ThemeShift News

To make sure you don’t miss any ThemeShift news or updates of your theme you’ll be able to browse the latest ThemeShift news directly from the WordPress backend. Click on TS News and you can read the latest blog entries from ThemeShift.com.
