Calling all Wordpress Themers! Do you ever wish that you could easily preview your wordpress themes while working in Dreamweaver? Well wish no more! The other day i came across an awesome Dreamweaver Extension called ThemeDreamer.

This amazing extension enables you to unlock Dreamweavers potential and turns Adobes’ Dreamweaver into a faster design environment for wordpress themes. ThemeDreamer provides a WYSIWYG feedback within Dreamweaver’s design view editor in real time. This means you do not need to deal with a server to view your CSS and template changes! Alterations are immediately reflected in Dreamweavers Design View.

Well before you have a complete design orgasm take a quick look at some of its features as stated by the website:

Real Time Design View

• Enables instantaneous WYSIWYG feedback on common CSS and WordPress Template Tags.
• Automatically combines theme file dependencies, eliminating the need to combine and splice header.php, index.php, footer.php, search.php, sidebar.php, etc.
• Supports both function-style and query-string-style Template Tag parameters.

Code View Hints

• Provides WordPress Template Tags, Include Tags, and Conditional Tags at your finger tips.
• Hints reveal syntax, parameter defaults, and common enumerated optional values.

Graphic Designer and Application Developer Benefits

• Offline theme development - There is no need for a server connection or a need to install WordPress locally to view most common style edits.
• Accelerate theme development time by reducing hassels with server round trips (’download-edit-upload-view’).
