Description

Enables loading and display of a theme's patterns even when the theme is not active.

Also loads patterns from selected themes which don't include their own logic.

Installation

1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/oik-patterns directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress
3. For each theme which delivers patterns use the preview_theme=theme query parameter to load the cache with the theme's patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which patterns are loaded?

• Any .html file in the theme's patterns folder.
• Cached patterns for a selected theme
• During preview, if the cached versions are out of date with respect to the theme they are re-cached.

Are these patterns translatable?

Yes, if we use my proposal for internationalization and localization of templates and template parts AND if I implement code to look in the user's current locale.
