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.
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.
How’d you like them apples?

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.

This plugin lets you create meta boxes by creating and calling a function but without needing to reuse all of the same WordPress functions for doing so.
<h3>Arbitrary section</h3>
Here is an example meta box function:
< ?php
//Meta box for page settings 
function pageSettings() {
 //Name of the meta box (lowercase without spaces) 
 $name = 'page_settings';
 //Enter the titles for each one of your boxes 
 $titles = array('Section Headline');
 //This will run the titles through a function that converts them into lables for the form fields. 
 $boxes = makeTitles($name,$titles);
 //Description of meta box 
 $desc = 'Page Settings';
 //Show on page type: 
 $types = array('page');
 //Pull in existing meta field value 
 $setHeadline = get_post_meta($_GET['post'],"_page_settings_section_headline",true);
 $content = "Page Headline:”; 
 $content .= “”;
 //Run the function 
 $config = array( 
 ‘name’=>$name, 
 ‘boxes’=>$boxes, 
 ‘desc’=>$desc, 
 ‘type’=>$type, 
 ‘content’=>$content 
 );
 //Create the object 
 newMetaBox($config); 
}
//Run it 
pageSettings();
?>
