Kadence Child Theme Builder
Export a Kadence child theme zip with your own Customizer defaults, CSS and starter template.
About This Plugin
Kadence Child Theme Builder packages a ready-to-install child theme zip right from a configured WordPress site running the Kadence theme, which you install free from wordpress.org. Instead of shipping a blank child theme, it bakes your current Kadence Customizer options and global color palette in as the child theme's own default settings.
You set the child theme name, folder slug, version, author name, author URL, description and screenshot image, and bundle custom CSS directly into the generated child stylesheet. If a client resets a Customizer panel on their site later, it falls back to your saved agency defaults rather than stock Kadence settings.
For repeatable site builds, the plugin also exports your posts, widgets and shop settings and wires up a custom starter site configuration for Kadence Starter Templates (free from wordpress.org) or private Kadence Pattern Hub connection details.
