<p>Style Manager generates and coordinates colors, typography, and spacing for compatible WordPress themes and blocks.</p>
<p>Instead of tuning isolated colors, font sizes, and spacing values by hand, you work with connected design decisions that can flow through the editor, the active theme, compatible blocks, and the front end.</p>
<p>Themes that support Style Manager apply the system across site templates and theme details. Compatible blocks can adapt to the same design decisions in context, so sections and blocks feel like part of one site rather than separate styling work.</p>
<p>In Style Manager 2.3, the main styling flow is available in the Site Editor, with visual preview boards, editor-canvas previews, and a Live Site preview for reviewing unsaved changes before publishing.</p>
<h4>Free compatible stack</h4>
<p>You can try Style Manager with this free Pixelgrade stack:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/pixelgrade/anima" rel="nofollow ugc">Anima</a> provides the theme-level integration.</li>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/nova-blocks/" rel="ugc">Nova Blocks</a> provides compatible blocks that can respond to the same design system.</li>
</ul>
<p>Style Manager also integrates with Pixelgrade LT themes, but premium themes are not required to try the free Anima and Nova Blocks path.</p>
<h4>What you can shape</h4>
<ul>
<li>Color palettes with generated roles for compatible themes and blocks.</li>
<li>Typography choices for headings, body copy, and details.</li>
<li>Spacing and rhythm controls that keep layouts consistent.</li>
<li>Theme-supported tweaks and motion settings.</li>
<li>Live editor previews before saving.</li>
<li>Context-aware styling for blocks and sections that support Style Manager.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Compatibility</h4>
<p>Style Manager is not a universal page builder and does not make every theme or block support every control.</p>
<p>The full experience depends on your active theme and blocks being built to read Style Manager’s design decisions. If a theme or block does not support a specific Style Manager feature, the related controls may be hidden or may not affect that theme or block’s output.</p>

<h3>Privacy & External Services</h3>
<p>Style Manager uses external services to deliver some design assets.</p>
<p><strong>Pixelgrade Cloud (cloud.pixelgrade.com)</strong></p>
<p>To provide color palettes, font palettes, and curated design configurations, the plugin can fetch design assets from Pixelgrade Cloud. This request is made from the WordPress admin, not from your site’s frontend, and the response is cached locally.</p>
<p>When fetching design assets, the plugin sends: your site URL, whether the site uses SSL, your WordPress version, the Style Manager version, and your active theme’s slug, name, URI, version, and text domain. No personal data about your site’s visitors is sent or collected, and the plugin does not load tracking or analytics scripts.</p>
