You’ve read about using the Theme Customizer before here on Wptuts+, but today we’re up to the part in the Adaptive Blog Theme where we get to show you a really nice practical example. Utilising the Theme Customizer for your theme’s options page is a robust and future-proof way to give your theme flexibility.

    I like theme options more but this is really good as well, and much easier actually :)

    Good to see your using the theme customizer and not a standard theme options panel, good work.

      I agree Paul.
      I’d like to see a big shift towards using the theme customizer for a themes options and leaving options pages/panels strictly for plugins.

      Nice tut Adi, as always ;)

    I think special theme options panels are more usefull and more beautiful than the theme customizer :) There are a lots of well designed panels in the web or you can design as well :)

      Hey there,

      Do you have any examples? You can do loads of stuff with jQuery :)

    Can’t wait for the completed theme! I really don’t have time to complete the tutorials now, but I will surely be using this theme if it ever comes downloadable. Will gladly pay that ~50$ for it in ThemeForest too!
