Lecture Description
In this video, we learn about the WordPress theme customizer which allows you visually design your site just by clicking. You don't need to know any code to use the Customizer.
With the WordPress customizer, you can make your site look how you want it to be, rather than what it looks like out of the box.
One of the great things about the customizer is the ability to preview your changes. When you change an option, you'll see the change in the preview to the right. This doesn't affect your live site until you save your results.
Each theme's customizer is going to include different options. More modern themes generally include more options.
Examples of options include:
- Site title, tagline
- Site logo and favicon
- Font selection
- Theme colors
- Site width
- Custom CSS
At the bottom right of the customizer, you can also choose to preview in desktop, tablet, or mobile views.
