<p>If you’re a WordPress designer who wants to spend more time doing what you love – writing CSS and playing with pixels – and less time doing the tedious chore of creating child themes, this plugin is for you.</p>
<p>Just install, visit the “Child Themes” menu option under “Appearance” and create a child theme from any installed theme using a simple form. Your new child theme will be created immediately and you can activate it straight away.</p>
<p>How’d you like them apples?</p>


Child Themes

This works great but their is no way to copy css files.



Ok but...

Create a child theme really easily from any installed theme.

<p>This plugin makes it very easy to create PDF’s on the fly. With a single shortcode it could create X amount of PDF’s “on the fly” / in realtime when<br />
a user visits a specific page or post. It’s possible to create PDF’s from current page/post/acf-field(s) or from a specific given url. The plugin is available in swedish and english but could easily be translated into whatever language.</p>
<p>The generation itself is managed by connecting to PDF Crowd API so you will need to have an account<br />
there to use this plugin. Every time the plugin is making a connection to the API a token is drawn. There is a free version of the API that has limited number<br />
of tokens. From version 1.18 of this plugin it’s possible to connect to the API only when data changes in any page or post which makes a huge difference in number of tokens that are used.<br />
Number of tokens drawn for each connection depends of the size of generated PDF(s) amongst some other parameters. It’s possible to use a page/post-template and<br />
fetch data from ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) with this plugin.</p>
<p>Pricing for the PDF Crowd API service (and option to evalue the service) is shown here: http://pdfcrowd.com/pricing/ (Select option “HTML to PDF API” and make your choice). The PDF Crowd API service<br />
is not created by the author so please have that in mind if you ask questions regarding the actual generation(s) of the PDF(s).  The service is used by the<br />
plugin because it was simply the best PDF generation software that was found (by the plugin author).</p>
<p>PDF Crowd states:<br />
“Each API call makes a POST request to our servers. We do not disclose or keep copies of submitted data and generated files. They are kept only for the time necessary to efficiently process conversion requests and then permanently deleted.”</p>

<h4>shortcodes in post(s)/page(s)</h4>
<ul>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate debug_mode=”no” create_downloadlink=”yes” out_files=”pdfcrowd;wibergsweb” overwrite_pdf=”no” convert_urls=”http://pdfcrowd.com/;http://wibergsweb.se/” link_titles=”PDF Crowd PDF Site;Wibergs Web site” html_class=”pdfdownloadlink”]</li>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate debug_mode=”no” out_files=”pdfcrowd;wibergsweb” overwrite_pdf=”yes” convert_urls=”http://pdfcrowd.com/;http://wibergsweb.se/” link_titles=”PDF Crowd PDF Site;Wibergs Web site” html_class=”pdfdownloadlink”]</li>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate debug_mode=”yes” use_ssl=”yes” out_files=”pdfcrowd;wibergsweb” convert_urls=”http://pdfcrowd.com/;http://wibergsweb.se/” link_titles=”PDF Crowd PDF Site;Wibergs Web site” html_class=”pdfdownloadlink”]</li>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate debug_mode=”yes” create_downloadlink=”yes” out_files=”invoice” overwrite_pdf=”datachange” data_fields=”acf_surname;acf_lastname”  data_acfkeys=”field_5859b22623ca5;field_5859b260bb104″ link_titles=”PDFmaster” convert_urls=”{681}” data_postid=”all” pagebreak_afterpost=”yes” last_shortcode=”no”]</li>
</ul>
<h4>If using ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)</h4>
<ul>
<li>convert_urls=”{100}” means grab url from page/post with id 100. In cases below it could be a page template (with id 100):</li>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate last_shortcode=”no” debug_mode=”no” autosum_fields=”yes” targetblank=”yes” create_downloadlink=”yes” out_files=”invoice” overwrite_pdf=”datachange” convert_urls=”{100}” data_postid=”all” data_cpt=”customer” data_fields=”acf_customer_phone;acf_customer_name;acf_customer_trailers” data_acfkeys=”field_285b0870afcf6;field_285b064d43bec;field_585b0b3288d6e” link_titles=”Invoices”]</li>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate last_shortcode=”no” debug_mode=”no” autosum_fields=”yes” targetblank=”yes” create_downloadlink=”yes” out_files=”invoice” overwrite_pdf=”datachange” convert_urls=”{100}” data_postid=”all” data_cpt=”customer” data_fields=”acf_customer_phone;acf_customer_name;acf_customer_trailers” data_acfkeys=”field_285b0870afcf6;field_285b064d43bec;field_585b0b3288d6e” link_titles=”Invoices” add_related_fields=”1;Model of car;acf_customer_cars_reg;acf_cars_model”]</li>

</ul>
<h4>Page template could look something like this</h4>
<p>Invoice</p>
<p>[title]</p>
<p><strong>Phonenumber:</strong>: [acf_customer_phone]</p>
<p>Cars</p>
<p>[acf_customer_cars]</p>
<p><strong>Net:</strong><br />
[crowdpdf-total=field_585b0b3288d2e]</p>
<p><strong>Vat:</strong><br />
[crowdpdf-totalvat=field_585b0b3288d2e]</p>
<p><strong>Gross:</strong><br />

<h4>Explanation of the shortcode</h4>
<ul>
<li>[pdfcrowd_generate last_shortcode=”yes” debug_mode=”no” autosum_fields=”yes” targetblank=”yes” create_downloadlink=”yes” out_files=”invoice” overwrite_pdf=”datachange” convert_urls=”{100}” data_postid=”55″ data_cpt=”customer” data_fields=”acf_customer_phone;acf_customer_name;acf_customer_trailers” data_acfkeys=”field_285b0870afcf6;field_285b064d43bec;field_585b0b3288d6e” link_titles=”Invoice” add_related_fields=”1;Model of car;acf_customer_cars_reg;acf_cars_model”]</li>
<li>It’s only one shortcode on the page, so it’s the last</li>
<li>No debugmode</li>
<li>Tell plugin to autosum specific fields </li>
<li>Create downloadable link</li>
<li>Open newly created download pdf in new tab/window</li>
<li>Create a file called invoice</li>
<li>Only generate new pdf/connect to PDF Crowd server when data has been changed</li>
<li>Use page with id 100 as a template page</li>
<li>Grab data from post type customer</li>
<li>Grab data from customer with id 55</li>
<li>Use datafields called acf_customer_phone (with key field_285b0870afcf6), acf_customer_name (with keyfield_285b064d43bec) and acf_customer_cars (acf_customer_cars is a repeater-field with keyfield field_585b0b3288d6e)</li>
<li>Use Invoice as title on the download link</li>
<li>acf_customer_cars is a repeater field with these subfields (Name, color)</li>
<li>A new column is added in the repeater field in the PDF (but not in the admin) with the titlte “Model of car” at the second position in the index (1) and fetches the actual carmodel from related model of the car</li>
</ul>
<p>[title] – shows the actual<br />
field_585b0b3288d2e is the keyfield of the ACF that is being autosummarized (in the repeater field)</p>
<p>Start with setting debug_mode to yes when creating your attributes. It might be more helpful than you think! Happy generating! 🙂</p>
<h3>Example css</h3>
<ul>
<li>.pdfdownloadlink {display:block;background:#0000FF;}</li>
