How to Make a WordPress Theme in Dreamweaver

WordPress themes allow you to give your blog its own look, making it stand out from all of the other WordPress blogs. You can download a free theme, purchase a premium theme, or use a program such as Dreamweaver to create your own custom theme that no one else will have. If you're using Dreamweaver, you can use two plug-ins that will help you design your WordPress theme. You can also edit pre-existing themes in Dreamweaver.

      Use TAGStention, found at Solutoire.com. This add-on puts an actual extension bar within Dreamweaver that gives you easy access to any WordPress tags you might need to use while typing code. If you use a tag that requires certain parameters to be met, you will be able to use a wizard to fill them out. As of the date of publication, TAGStention is free to use.

      Go to ThemeDreamer.com and get ThemeDreamer, a Dreamweaver extension designed to help you make WordPress themes. The extension allows you to see exactly what your WordPress theme will look like when it's finished, and provides access to more than 50 royalty free fonts.

      Build a WordPress theme in Dreamweaver from scratch without any extensions. This is by far the most difficult option -- you will need to be knowledgeable in HTML and CSS programming. Instead of building your own from scratch, you may want to try editing a pre-existing WordPress theme.

Tips & Warnings

  • Test your WordPress theme on your computer before uploading it to your website.
