Themler Desktop Beta is now available!

Support Team posted this 17 June 2015

Hello

Themler Desktop Beta version is finally here!

This version allows creating themes directly on your computer and you are not required to use any external web hosting.
Thanks to HTML 5 AppCache technology, Themler downloads its components at its first run, minimizes the Internet traffic and reduces the startup time. However you still need Internet connection to use this version.

Themler desktop installs all components it needs: WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, wooCommerce, VirtueMart, Magento and PrestaShop, as well as Apache, MySQL and PHP services. All these components are installed automatically and no additional configuration is required.

The built-in Theme Management dialog allows you to easily manage your projects directly within Themler and you don’t need to utilize a CMS administration panel.

For whom the desktop version is?

The Desktop version simplifies the process of installation and configuration of Apache, PHP, MySQL and WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento and PrestaShop on local computer for non-experienced users by making it a one-click process. And Desktop version it is a bit faster since it works with local CMS.

The drawback of desktop version is separate Apache and MySQL instances running on your computer even if you already have these programs installed.

For experienced users, who already have WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento and PrestaShop working on their computers, we recommend to download and install our blank themes from themler.com instead of installing the desktop version.

Note: This is Beta version and therefore unexpected issues are possible.
Please let us know about any and all issues that you may encounter. For this create a new Private topic and provide us with information listed here:

alanbrigden,

Very very slow

We've checked your logs in our system. For some reason navigation between controls is quite slow.
Unfortunately we have failed to reproduce this issue on our side.

Could you please create a new private topic and provide us with the following information:

  • your Chrome version
  • what extensions you have installed in Chrome. If possible please try disabling them. Does the issue continue?
  • do you have some antivirus software or browser extensions which may block or slow executing javascript on web pages? Something like AddBlock.
  • provide logs:

    • run Themler Desktop
    • press F12 to open Chrome Development tool
    • switch to Console tab
    • execute AppSettings.enableLog = true command:
      enable-log3.png
    • switch between controls in Themler
    • you should see the long logs in the Console tab. Please copy all this log text to the .txt file and attach it to the topic.
    • or we can try accessing your computer with TeamViewer. For this please provide us with login/password.
  • run Windows Task Manager and provide a screenshot of the Performance tab.

often losses its styling and converts to default

Please note that Themler demo does not save changes.
In order to save changes you should purchase one of the Themler subscriptions:

Thank you,
Olivia

BTW, do you use FireBug extension?
It may cause such performance problems.

OK, thanks.

I see now I wont be using this much if it stays like this. Web based Themler has more benefits.

It's an "option" to download the desktop version. Many companies who's programs are browser based offer a desktop version.

And yes the web based Themler is smooth flowing. But, keep in mind, the desktop version is still "Beta" ;)

In my opinion (and I'm new) I see wonderful things happening with this company. ;)

Have a GREAT day! :)

Thought this would be a great idea, mainly because I have slow and unreliable internet. I downloaded and installed, but just get an error "This webpage is not available - ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

You still need to be connected to the Internet in order to use it.

Hope this helps :)

Have a GREAT day!

Hi vikasjgiri,

Please let us know on what exact step of the installation you receive the crash message?
1. Exactly after the start up.
2. In the installation process.

In case it happens right after the installation begins, then try to download the installation file once again and install it. The problem may be in the file corrupted during the download.
In other case, we need to know on what exact step of the installation it was aborted. What was shown in the installation window before the crash? Please attach the log files from the following folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Themler\bin\_logs\

You can reply to this case or create a new private topic. In case of creating the new topic, please mention that the issue is related to this one.

Sincerely,
Hella

Windows 8 and most likely Windows 10 users will have a problem with this due to how it's setup.

Windows 8 has a small amount of space allowed to the operating system drive, (C:) which gets smaller in space as the days go by due to Microsoft Updates.

Themler installs automatically to C: which is going to be a BIG ISSUE when it comes to performance.

Allow for the software to be installed on another drive please.

Also, this doesn't seem to be a Windows application at all. It seems to be working on the browser.

Thanks
JR

Also we are researching the possibilities to provide a choice for the user in which folder the application will be installed.

For those who have issues with the installation, please create the separate private topics so we could contact you with and investigate the issue further.

Hi,

You need to insert the license key in the Themler purchase page:
http://themler.com/Purchase

Here you will find the Themler versions that you can get for free or with the discount. After that press Get on the desired variant and then you will be able to log into Themler and receive updates.

Is this version (http://downloads.themler.com/Themler.1.0.50.28323-no-chrome.exe) non-browser based? The browser based version is very slow. It's pointless to have a DESKTOP application that is BROWSER based... Why not just have it being able to PREVIEW in the browser like Artisteer did?
