Please note that this plugin requires the <a href="https://seothemes.com/themes/customize-pro" rel="nofollow ugc">Customize Pro child theme</a> and will not work without it.
Customize Pro Engine will be shown in the list of recommended plugins when you activate the Customize Pro theme and run through the Genesis <a href="https://studiopress.github.io/genesis/theme-setup/" rel="nofollow ugc">One Click Theme Setup</a> process.
This plugin provides the following functionality:
<ul>
<li>Over 500 Customizer settings</li>
<li>Handy shortcodes</li>
<li>Hero section</li>
<li>Widget areas</li>
<li>WooCommerce compatibility</li>
<li>Base CSS and JS</li>
<li>Repositioning of Genesis hooks</li>
<li>Useful helper functions</li>
<li>Loading Google Fonts</li>
</ul>
This plugin was created as a way to keep the child theme up to date with the latest features, security fixes and bug fixes. By shifting the majority of code out of the child theme and into a plugin, we are able to provide automatic updates without overwriting customizations made to your child theme.

While the plugin will work on the HTML5 “Pro” themes, the HTML markup only supports the older XHTML themes at this time. It is not recommended for use on the new HTML5 themes.
Thanks to David Decker, this plugin is translation ready. German translation files included.
