The Live WordPress Theme Editor. No code required.·csshero.org

Visit

CSS Hero is a WordPress plugin that lets users visually customize the look of WordPress themes and plugins through a point-and-click interface, without writing code. It generates a single static CSS stylesheet that overrides the theme's original styles live, without modifying any theme files. The tool includes color pickers, font and typography controls, responsive/mobile-specific editing, a built-in CSS/LESS code editor, on-scroll animations, and a full edit history with undo/redo.
