Now let’s dive in! Text Editors for Windows I’m going to break this part into two sections: Text Editors for Windows and Text Editors for Macs. Powerful search/find/replace feature because it will help you save time.Autocomplete because it helps you remember the right CSS properties and functions.Tabbed windows for viewing files because it’s great for dealing with several files.Syntax highlighting because it helps you view the code with ease and it will help you avoid mistakes.What features matter in a great code text editor? You should look out for: And if used in conjunction with your FTP client, it is extremely efficient. You can use WordPress’s built-in file editor or Thesis’s Custom File editor to edit files from your WordPress Dashboard, but for more extensive editing, I recommend a good code text editor. Since so many people use this software, you should be able to find plenty of tutorials to help you get off the ground with FileZilla, if the interface isn’t guide enough. FileZillaįileZilla is an extremely popular FTP client because it’s free, open source, and quite powerful. Some of the benefits of using an FTP client, rather than the cPanel file manager or something simliar, include faster file transfers, the ability to bookmark different servers (this is great if you run several websites), and easier access to your local files (the files on your computer). Oh, and don’t worry, the software is either inexpensive or FREE. So, in the remaining part of this article I’ll tell you about some of the advanced software available for both FTP and Text Editing. And furthermore, if you’re using WordPress’s Theme Editor or Thesis Theme’s custom file editor, you’re missing out on the time-saving features of more advanced software. Now I know this sounds basic, but if you’re using a web-based FTP client, you’re wasting tons of time because, in my experience, it tends to run extremely slow. You’ll also need text editing software for adding custom code into your custom.css and custom_functions.php. When you run WordPress websites, you’ll need FTP software to get files from your computer to your web server.
