Redux Framework

Description

Redux was built by developers for developers. We save you months if not years in your development time. Everything we do is to help innovation in the industry.

?? What the Plugin does?

Redux is a simple, genuinely extensible, and fully responsive options framework for WordPress themes and plugins. Built on the WordPress Settings API; Redux supports many field types, custom error handling, custom fields & validation types, and import/export functionality.

But what does Redux actually DO? We don’t believe that theme and plugin developers should have to reinvent the wheel every time they start work on a project. Redux simplifies the development cycle by providing a streamlined, extensible framework for developers to build on. Through a simple, well-documented config file, third-party developers can build out an options panel limited only by their imagination in a fraction of the time it would take to build from the ground up!

?? What fields does Redux offer?

• Accordion
• ACE Editor
• Background

??Additional Features

• Output CSS Automatically – Redux generates CSS and the appropriate Google Fonts stylesheets for you on select fields. You need to only specify the CSS selector to apply the CSS to (limited to certain fields).
• Compiler integration! A custom hook runs when any fields with the argument `compile => true` are changed.
• Field validation and sanitization
• Field and section disabling
• Oh, and did we mention a fully integrated Google Fonts setup that will make you so happy you’ll want to cry?

2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

FAQ

Why doesn’t this plugin do anything?

Redux is an option framework… in other words, it’s not designed to do anything on its own! You can, however, activate a demo mode to see how it works.

Redux Framework Slowed Down My Site – Not Recommended for Travelista Theme

abdulj89 August 23, 2024 2 replies

I have been using the Redux Framework as it was recommended for the Travelista theme on my WordPress site. However, my experience with this framework has been far from satisfactory due to its significant impact on site performance. Performance Issues: Unfortunately, the benefits of using Redux are heavily outweighed by the severe performance issues it has caused. Since installing Redux, I’ve noticed a substantial slowdown in my site’s loading times. This is particularly problematic where speed and user experience are crucial. My page load times have increased significantly, which negatively affects user experience. If you’re using the Travelista theme or any theme that recommends Redux, I would advise caution. While Redux may offer robust customization options, the cost to site performance is too high. In a time when speed and performance are critical, using a framework that slows down your site can have detrimental effects. I hope the developers prioritize optimizing Redux for better performance in future updates.
