  I have been using wordpress maybe over a year now. For the last couple of months, I have been editing some themes after a while i got bored and started coding my own theme.  I designed this theme couple of months ago but never finished it. So i was finally be able to fix the small bugs and release it for public. Here it goes, It’s my first wordpress theme release, but not my first design.

  About theme

  It’s a two column theme. Content is in a light colored box, which is on a dark background. I’m pretty sure there are a lot of fixes need to be made. Please let me know about them so I can try to fix them. I’m also planning to edit some sections. But I think It’s good enough for an initial release.  Theme was bit different but I had to adjust it to meet requirements at wordpress.org/extend/themes. I’ll also release an extended version of this theme. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

  Support and Questions:

  Please let me know any questions you might have about this theme, just post your problem/question in comments and I’ll get back to you.

    Hi there,
    problem with tag links in posts, they do not work, i have version 1.3 love it but I cannot get my tags in the posts to work they go to a 404 page… they work with the default theme, but i like yours much better and this is the only problem I am having.

    I double checked. They seem to work both on my server and on wordpress.org. You can also double check checking the demo post at “http://tenthblog.com/demo/?p=4“, If you click on any post tags, it will not direct you to a 404 page.

    To resolve your problem, Did you edit the theme? if you did, maybe you have forgot a character in the page and might be causing for 404 page. Can you post the URL that you get on 404 page? Normally, tags look like this in URL;

    http://www.tenthblog.com/?tag=wordpress, this would list every post that has “blogging” as a tag.

    Hmmm, I did a bit of editing, but mostly in the css, and sidebar. I will reload the theme and start over. Thanks for the quick response. The site is http://www.fibonews.com/wordpress/ I know stupid having wordpress as a folder, newbe mistake.

    John 12:21 PM on November 21, 2008 Permalink

    I checked your website. It should work. I think it’s something with permalinks.

    http://tenthblog.com/tag/wordpress
    http://tenthblog.com/?tag=wordpress

    They do the same thing. Both ways don’t work on your site. Maybe you should post it at wordpress.org for support.

    Does this (BorderPx ) theme support the new functions in WordPress 2.7 specifically

    # threaded-comments
    # sticky-post

    Or is that what the update is for?

    I’ve loaded it up and it also looks like the widget panel is hardcoded in the sidebar

  • 

    TB 8:01 PM on January 21, 2009 Permalink

    It doesn’t support threaded-comments feature. It will be available with the new version. Sticky post feature has no relation to the theme being used. Wordpress will just keep your sticky posts on your index page, so yes.

    Also, widget problem will be fixed with the new version as well. It will be released by the end of January.

  Wordpress 2.6.1 Released 

  They have just released 2.6.1 after two beta versions. Seems like they fixed plenty of bugs. Although, I haven’t noticed any of them. I upgraded my blog as well, but not because of those fixed bugs. I did it to get rid of that notice in dashboard. It just annoys me. Plus, there is not really a major change. I think they are going to start adding new features just like they did afetr 2.5.1. Go ahead and vote some ideas at wordpress dot org.

  But anyways, wordpress 2.6.1 is available for download. If you wish to get rid of that annoying notice from your dashboard, go ahead and download 2.6.1 and upgrade your blog.

  Wordpress 2.6.1 Beta 2 Released 

  Yet another release from Wordpress, according to the roadmap for future releases,  Wordpress 2.7 will be released on November 10. But before then, there is going to be 2.6.1 just like the 2.5.1 before 2.6.  Ryan Boren, lead developer of Wordpress, has released the second beta version of 2.6.1. It’s available for download.

  Click here to download.

  I just upgraded wordpress on my localhost to this version. There is not really a big change between 2.6 and 2.6.1. It’s mostly the bugs they fixed from previous versions. They want to get ready before they start putting 2.7 together, new features and all.

  They fix the bugs and release a child version then, after getting some reviews on the release. They start developing the next main version. I think it’s a good system.

  Anyways, a new beta version is available. Here is the link to Ryan Boren’s site.

  How to get wp-caption working in Wordpress 2.6 

  So I have finally updated my blog to Wordpress 2.6 and I wanted to try its new features.  Just before this new release, I was looking for a plugin that can caption images. It’s a pretty neat feature of wordpress 2.6.  So I went ahead and tried. What happened was that there was no style. It didn’t look good. I went ahead and took a look at my page’s source and tried to edit  CSS but it didn’t work.

  But yesterday,  I found this codex article at wordpress dot org. It has fixed the problem. Here is the code block that you need to in order for it to work with style;

  
.wp-caption {
border: 1px solid #ddd;
text-align: center;
background-color: #f3f3f3;
padding-top: 4px;
margin: 10px;
/* optional rounded corners for browsers that support it */
-moz-border-radius: 3px;
-khtml-border-radius: 3px;
-webkit-border-radius: 3px;
border-radius: 3px;
}

  .wp-caption img {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0 none;
}

  .wp-caption p.wp-caption-text {
font-size: 11px;
line-height: 17px;
padding: 0 4px 5px;
margin: 0;
}

  Of course you can edit this as you want to fit to your custom wordpress theme. I have changed couple of things and here is how it looks;

  

  This is a picture I took in St. Petersburg in Russia.

    Thanks!

    This was helpful .

    YO might want to add text-align:center to the last one as some themes have the text justified which makes it align to the left.

    Glauco 12:46 AM on May 23, 2009 Permalink

    Great! Now this feature works in my bloglauco.com.

    However, I don’t understand why images with captions do not center in the page. This works when I set align LEFT or RIGHT, but not CENTER. Strange, isn’t it? Anybody could help me please?

    Example: take a look at this post from my blog:

    Imagens are at left.

    Jeremy 8:21 AM on January 28, 2010 Permalink

    Thank you VERY much the help. The only things I needed to add were:

    .wp-caption.alignleft{
    float: left;
    padding: 3px 3px 0pt !important
    }
    .wp-caption.alignright{
    float: right;
    padding: 3px 3px 0pt !important
    }

  New Wordpress Theme Directory 

  

  Screenshot - wordpress.org

  Finally It’s been resolved. We all know that wordpress has a theme directory at “themes.wordpress.net” but it has stopped accepting themes months ago. When this happened, people started releasing their themes on their web site which made it hard for people to find new themes.

  Wordpress just made an annoucement about their new wordpress theme directory. It’s under “extend” umbralla at wordpress dot org.

  The new wordpress theme directory is “http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/“. Upload has been made easy as well. It’s working too!!!. Until now, you would have to mail a moderator and if they approve your request, which they never did, you could upload your wordpress theme.

  All you have to do is to register at wordpress.org then you will be able to upload your theme as a .zip archieve. Once it gets approved, you will receive an email for further instructions. For more information on this, take a look at this post at Wordpress Dev Blog.

  Just a quick note, I’ll be uploading tenthblog’s mini design from last year. I need to update couple of things before I upload. So stay tuned.

    Wordpress requires you to have gravatar support. Gravatar is globally recognized avatars. You got to have them in comments. Just go to the address they gave you, simple copy and paste the function to your comment loop and it should get approved.
