The customizer allows WordPress developers to add options for themes and plugins, but a sandbox is helpful to understand how to. This sandbox repository is a result, additional source to my session on WordCamp Cologne MMXV - slides are here - bueltge.de/wordpress-customizing.
Instead of adding options to the $wp_customize object directly, developers can just define an array of controls and sections and pass it to the Customizer_Library class.
The Customizer Library adds panels, sections, settings and controls to the customizer based on the array that gets passed to it. There is default sanitization for all options. Also it is possible to define custom callbacks. All options are also saved by default as theme_mods. But the customizer is much more and this sandbox show you examples, currently
-
Customizing of the WordPress Login Page (WP Single Installation, not Multisite ready)
-
Remove, Filter Sections from Default
-
Custom Controls are here: github.com/bueltge/WordPress-Theme-Customizer-Custom-Controls
-
Also helpful is this library with much more examples about the defaults, like settings, settings, panels, sanitanization core controls and custom controls from Chip Bennett.
