Configuring Your Theme Project - Module 1-5 - Building a WordPress Classic Theme with Pinegrow

It's almost time to get started building the theme. We'll do a final walkthrough to make sure you haven't missed anything. After a brief overview of the Pinegrow project files and user interface, we'll load up our demo data and get to work on the next module.
📝Note: Around 5:55, I discuss the action panel and the built-in Pinegrow CMS. Starting in Pinegrow 7.93, Pinegrow components became much more useful for WordPress projects. Check out the Pinegrow release notes for that version to learn more.
📝Note: This video shows the process for Pinegrow Web Editor (desktop). If you are using the Pinegrow WordPress plugin, you'll need to do a few manual steps:
• Upload the images from the assets folder to your WordPress media library
• Manually create the block.css and editor.css files inside Pinegrow
• Copy the contents of style.css, editor.css, and block.css from the starter files into their respective files in the Pinegrow project.

Really looking forward to this series. I have had Pinegrow for a few years now but have been slow to get started with it. Thanks Adam!

Can you remind me how to remove the pinegrow footprint.. The made with pinegrow comment that ends up in your theme on export. Thanks

[@AdamLoweIO]

There is an option in the theme/plugin settings under “export options”. It says something like “include ‘generated with Pinegrow’ in the source code.

@@AdamLoweIO Thanks. I knew you had the answer :D
