Add skins from aisleza.com

Download a skin from aisleza.com and upload it on the Skins tab. Skins are small design packs, so the plugin stays light.

Why skins are downloaded#

Aisleza has a growing library of skins. Instead of shipping every one inside the plugin, each skin is a small pack you download when you want it, well under 1 MB.

Add a skin#

1. Go to aisleza.com/skins and pick a skin. Everyone can browse them.
2. Press Download skin and sign in with your Aisleza account (Pro members). The skin downloads as a .zip file.
3. In WordPress, go to Aisleza → Store designer → Skins.
4. Under Add a skin, choose the .zip and press Upload skin. Don’t unzip it first.
5. The skin appears with the others. Press Preview to walk your store in it, then select it and press Use this design.

Versions and updates#

Every skin has a version, shown under its name on the Skins tab, and a Changelog with what changed in each version.

Once a day Aisleza Pro checks aisleza.com for newer versions. When one exists:

• the skin’s card shows Update available with the new version and its changelog;
• the Store designer menu item shows a count, like WordPress’s own plugin updates;
• with an active licence, press Update on the card: the new version downloads and installs in one click. Without one, the card links to renew.

Press Check for skin updates at the top of the tab to check straight away. You can also update by uploading the newer .zip yourself.

Removing#

Press Remove under a skin you uploaded or updated. If it was an update of a skin that comes with Pro, the version inside Pro comes back. If your store was wearing a skin that’s gone, it goes back to Boutique.

Safe by design#

A skin pack holds design data only: skin.json, a preview picture and texture pictures. Aisleza refuses the whole pack if it contains anything else, such as a script or a file with an unsafe name, and checks that every picture is a real image and that the design data is valid.
