TailPress – Tailwind for WordPress vs WP Live CSS Editor

Tailwind CSS is a great companion to building block based sites in WordPress. Unfortunately, it’s been pretty complicated to add Tailwind CSS to WordPress since it needs to be compiled with Node.js in order to be production ready. This plugin takes care of that by adding Tailwind CSS to WordPress in one easy step (activate the plugin) and at the same time takes care of performance and caching so your site remains fast and production ready! Who It’s For This is primarily for developers and users that are familiar with Tailwind CSS and comfortable styling their site using their utility class framework. It’s also for those who have struggled to add Tailwind to their workflow without having to constantly compile their CSS every time the classes in their page content changes. How it Works Extracts classes from pages and compiles them server-side into Tailwind CSS Caches the dynamically generated CSS to avoid performance issues on the frontend of your production site. Are you affiliated with tailpress.io the theme? No, we are not! Unfortunately the same name was used for both out of coincidence, but we are not affiliated and are two different solutions. Tailpress.io is a great starting point for developing custom themes with deep integration of Tailwind. I would recommend it for any developer that wants to build a custom theme that depends heavily on Tailwind. Tailpress, this plugin, adds Tailwind support to any project as an add-on. It can be used as much or as little as you need, added to custom themes or pre-existing ones. Can this be used in production? Yes! Although the styles in the backend get generated on the fly, the CSS on the frontend gets cached for every page. Changing any classes on the page will bust the cache automatically so it’ll still stay up to date with any changes. Can this be used outside the block editor? Yes! This will work anywhere on the backend or front end of your site that uses classes to style things. Known Issues Device Preview Mode in Block Editor The non-desktop preview modes in the block editor utilize an iframe and don’t load assets properly. Therefore your Tailwind styles won’t be visible here. Page Caching If you have any page caching on your site, you’ll have to clear your cache for the best experience.

A CSS live Editor that allows you to preview realtime CSS changes and then save your changes. It saves dated backups of each save, so you can go back if it breaks, and you should erase backups once on a while. It’s a port from a Drupal module Live CSS http://drupal.org/project/live_css by guybedford http://drupal.org/user/746802 Now using ACE editor http://ace.ajax.org/ Tested on WordPress 3.6. But needs more testing ! =capabilities.php problem (not bug) SOLVED != Ok, now I did the correct thing and created an action to the wp_loaded hook to init the plugin, then, check whether the user can “erase themes” which is an Admin capability only, so the plugin only works if you are an admin. No need to modify the capabilities.php nor anything else. Some users have had problems in former 12.05 release with their site being inaccesible after installing the plugin. It all seemed to be part of the same problem with the capabilities.php file that is discussed here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-call-to-undefined-function-wp_get_current_user-4?replies=32 It works nice and perfect for me, but still needs testing !!! Hola mundo ! Este plugin está basado en el módulo de [Drupal Live CSS] (http://drupal.org/project/live_css) de [guybedford] (http://drupal.org/user/746802) Es un editor de CSS que te permite editar en directo todas las hojas de estilo CSS de tu web, ver los cambios y guardar sobre la marcha. Está pensada para usarla al diseñar la web, por lo que conviene desactivarlo o desinstalarlo una vez terminada. Cada vez que se guardan los cambios se genera una copia de seguridad fechada, para que puedas volver atrás si hace falta. Utiliza ACE como editor. Sólo los administradores pueden usar el plugin. Importante !!! Hacer copia de respaldo de los archivos CSS antes de probarlo ! Aunque el plugin genera automáticamente copias de seguridad fechadas en el mismo directorio en que estén los archivos modificados, siempre conviene tener una copia del estado general de la cosa antes de empezar a trastear. Si no funciona al guardar o hacer la copia de seguridad aparece un mensaje con las rutas del archivo que se intentaba modificar, la de la copia de seguridad y tal vez un mensaje de error. Lo más seguro es que el problema sea de permisos. Los CSS que quieras editar deberían tener permiso de escritura 755. Instalación La instalación es la típica de cualquier plugin de wordpress. Desempaquetar el zip en wp-content/plugins, y listo. No hay que tocar los temas ni hacer nada más que activarlo desde el panel de administración. No tiene opciones ni página propia en el panel de administración. Probado en WordPress 3.3.2, tienes que ser un administrador para poder usarlo. Utiliza ahora el hook wp_loaded que arregla el problema de la versión anterior que se discutía aquí: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-call-to-undefined-function-wp_get_current_user-4?replies=32 Más información http://drupal.org/project/live_css Live CSS http://drupal.org/user/746802 guybedford http://drupal.org/user/78427 http://mozillalabs.com/skywriter/2011/01/18/mozilla-skywriter-has-been-merged-into-ace/ http://www.ajax.org/ http://ace.ajax.org/ https://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX_in_Plugins http://briancray.com/2009/08/19/wordpress-head-element/ http://www.devlounge.net/code/using-ajax-with-your-wordpress-plugin http://amiworks.co.in/talk/simplified-ajax-for-wordpress-plugin-developers-using-jquery/ http://drupal.org/project/cssedit Realtime CSS Editor http://drupal.org/user/78427 tjholowaychuk
