Just after 2 weeks there's another release of Theme Maker. Original date of this update was planned on May 5th, but because of new Prestashop version 1.5.4.1 the progress was accelerated.

I'd like to note that the project direction is highly influenced by suggestions of the users. If you have any idea - feel free to use the contact form.

Support for Prestashop 1.5.4.1

Here's the full list of improvements made by Prestashop team. All these changes are now mirrored in the generated themes.

From now on you can set the top/bottom margin and create a new feeling of your eshop.

Bug fixes in themes

Andrej – Another great release! Thank you for making this product available. Here’s a few suggestions for you:
– It’s hard to pick colors for everything, so having a “palette” of colors, perhaps saved with the theme, could make things easier. I usually only select a handful of colors for a theme, but going through each element and then trying to either remember the RBG numbers or making them look similar to the other colors in other elements I’ve just chosen is quite a pain. Perhaps “Save as Palette” or “My Colors” or something along those lines.
– Also, the ability to print out, or get a copy of the colors used in the theme is helpful, ie., all the RGB or hex codes of the colors contained in my theme, perhaps as an additional .TXT file included with the theme, or a PDF print report?
– I’d like to search for other themes that may have a similar “starting color”, for example, I’m thinking of a theme, and overall it’s a yellow sort of theme. I’m sure there is someone else that’s already created a brilliant yellow based theme, that I might be able to use as a starting point? I see a few in the gallery, but I’m assuming there are hundred of others. If not the entire theme itself, perhaps just those palettes of colors I mentioned before. Kind of like going to the paint store and looking at interior design books with color swatches already picked out that go together well. i.e., not all of us have wonderful color senses… ;-)

    Very accurate observations, thank you! I will certainly consider all three ideas and probably start with the “palette” colors.

Hello

The program you have created is fantastic, but I’ll give you some suggestions that I think are important.
It would be helpful if the menu and the page header occupy the full width of the page, as it would give a very good appearance to the templates.
It would also be a good idea that you could customize the menu height and shape of the buttons.
Best regards

Dear Andrej,

I am going in round and round…….

Do you have a 2 column layout with new products transplanted into the home page (underneath featured products)? Especially when it’s a 2 column layout (left column and main page), there is no way to showcase new products in the home page. If you could add a template with “New Products” transplanted into the home page…. It would be nicer and smarter.

In my case, I was able to transplant the New Product into home page…. But it’s showing only in list format (Featured products are in Grid format)

Any advice…. Or any plan to include a template?

Thanks
Winston
