TransferTweaks

The TransferTweaks WordPress plug-in makes it a snap to take the code “tweaks” you have made to your current theme and move them to a new one. TransferTweaks takes your “after the fact” code modifications present in the head, footer, and sidebar and stores them in the WordPress database. Now, when you decide to switch to a new theme you no longer need to move your code tweaks by hand. As long as TransferTweaks is active, your code will always be present in the current theme.

For example, say you are a member of the MyBlogLog community. Odds are that you have placed the MyBlogLog tracking script in your header.php file. By moving this JavaScript to the TransferTweaks plug-in, your tracking code will always be inserted in the head of your blog regardless of which theme you use. Just copy the code into the plug-in and remove it from your template…that is it.

TransferTweaks also allows you to selectively turn off certain code tweaks you have made. Say you have a Google Analytics script and are testing on a local sandbox, you can use TransferTweaks to turn off this piece of code to prevent your testing efforts from skewing your stats.

To use this plug-in simply enter the code tweaks(s) you would like to transfer to a new theme into the code editor, check the “Turn on Code Tweaks” checkbox and then click “Update Options”. That’s it, from now on your code tweak will be able available to your current theme (regardless of the theme you decide to use). Be sure to remove your “tweak” from your php template so it doesn’t appear twice.
