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:

OK, thanks.

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

Make program detect if Apache and mysql services are already activated. We all use developing servers, and no need to duplicate services. (not critical and not so important right now). But then, it is impossible to use root folder on C partition.
Make a option where we can for all Themes inside program put a URL to our real CMS installations. (very important right now)

Ideal to cover all scenarios and need for backups would be:

Themler open our CMS installation directly in our developing server (htdocs, www, etc..). We can point it manually to installation. Just desktop browse window and show CMS folder, something like this.
We work all the time on our server, not build in Themler server on C: partition.
Themler software just make a backup when we click "Save", or better to have separate button for Backup, to not to slow down all work in Themler.

As it is now and program doesnt know about menus, content, widgets, posts, etc....There is really no need for any desktop version. But I do understand other Users like it this way and want it.
