Page 404 template file is showing PHP notice messages on line 7
Probably because there is no post ID/post class to display

Line 7:

< article id="post-" >

I believe these functions should be removed

I'm trying to do a simple alert(); in the script.js and nothing happens. What's up ?

The new modification of the js files and functions.php seems to have broke something. Am I the only one having trouble to run jQuery now with the lastest WP 3.8.2 and HTML5Blank ?

replacing this in header.php:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"

with this in function.php:

if ( ! headers_sent() && isset($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] ) &&( strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE' ) !== false ) )
header( 'X-UA-Compatible: IE=edge,chrome=1' );

caused Html5 Validation in validator.w3.org test.

.entry-title, .entry-content, .entry-summary, .vcard

Particularly important when implementing Google Authorship.

hey, can't seem to find any classes on the wp_list_pages or wp_nav_menu - anyone else finding similar?

What If we want more control of our menu? or what if we need a a sepacial ID for the navigation or just having clean code.

like:

// Remove the <div> surrounding the dynamic navigation to cleanup markup
function my_wp_nav_menu_args( $args = '' ) {
    $args['container'] = false;
    $args['menu_class'] = 'browser';
    $args['menu_id'] = 'browser';
    return $args;
}

    // Remove Injected classes, ID's and Page ID's from Navigation <li> items

function tag_attributes_filter($var) {

  return is_array($var) ? array_intersect($var, array('selected')) : 'selected';
}

function my_css_attributes_filter($var) {
  if(is_array($var)){
   $varci= array_intersect($var, array('current-menu-item'));
   $cmeni = array('current-menu-item');
   $selava   = array('selected');
   $selavaend = array();
   $selavaend = str_replace($cmeni, $selava, $varci);
  }
  return $selavaend;
 }

add_filter('wp_nav_menu_args', 'my_wp_nav_menu_args');
add_filter('nav_menu_css_class', 'tag_attributes_filter', 100, 1);
add_filter('nav_menu_item_id', 'tag_attributes_filter', 100, 1);
add_filter('nav_menu_css_class', 'my_css_attributes_filter', 100, 1);

Am I nuts? or something good of this can be use?

We're moving into a time where local servers and front-end tooling are so important, and I feel HTML5 Blank is missing out on:

• Sass/SCSS compilation
• JSHint/JavaScript concats/minification
• HTML compression
• editorconfig etc for teams
• Loads of other Gulp stuff

There are Wordpress plugins for some of this stuff, but that's not a workflow. I'm wondering whether some kind of workflow (similar to Yeoman and other projects) could be setup, or just ignored for those not wanting. WordPress is a complete pain to setup a decent workflow for, I'm wondering if something can be done to help build locally alongside modern web practices.

Hi, I just want you to notice that there are 2 functions reported as deprecated by WordPress. Those are:

• parent_post_rel_link (functions.php line 400)
  https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/parent_post_rel_link/
• start_post_rel_link (functions.php line 401)
  https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/start_post_rel_link/

Hope it helps,
kind regards!

I don't develop WordPress websites or applications anymore, and feel due to the popularity of HTML5 Blank would hate to see it untouched for longer than I've left it.

The website receives over 10,000 hits a month, and presumably a great deal of downloads from that. I'm looking for maintainers/contributors that can help keep the project going being one of the top WordPress starting points for WordPress developers.

Things would involve developing and maintaining the HTML5 Blank project core, as well as keep it fresh with the latest WordPress APIs/changes, make it your own with new ideas and implementations, and join the project. I can provide HTML5 and JavaScript assistance on anything, but I'm completely out of touch of the WordPress core.

If anyone would like to take the gauntlet on HTML5 Blank, drop a comment here or email me. Happy coding!

I had looked for the answer to this issue and finally found a solution with the help of people over at StackOverflow:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16021673/wordpress-theme-cannot-find-css-localhost

It was not a big issue, but I figured you should know. Thanks for the great theme.

I'd like to use a Gulp workflow with html5blank, mainly for using BrowserSync, compiling Sass (using autoprefixer and sourcemaps), and managing (and wiring) Bower dependencies.

Anyone has any thoughts on that or have tried something similar?

I'm currently working on that, starting from gulp-webapp's Gulp implementation.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IS_EQUAL in functions.php on line 101

or to be more clear, it means that instead of having two gulp tasks that are almost identical, we will have a task that will trigger by a flag.
for example today we have two tasks that are almost identical stylesDev and stylesProduction (and we have more of this duplication). we can change it to have only one task styles that will be trigger by cli: gulp styles --prod (production) or just gulp styles (for dev).
what's your thoughts?

Hi there,

I've been using HTML5 Blank for a few years now as inspiration for my projects. Great stuff. I love the simple pagination, but would love to customize the labels for previous / next. Is this possible?

cheers,

Hi toddmotto, I hope writing in the right area, It is my first tim ein GitHub. I think there is a error in functions.php in // Custom Comments Callback. It seems to be a

I'm trying to add some JQuery scripts to the header file, but when I put it below the , they don't do anything, and when I put it above that line, I keep getting this error:

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $

Seems like there's some JQuery conflicts going on. What is the best way to implement these kinds of scripts into the template?

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-cite-element.html

"A person's name is not the title of a work — even if people call that person a piece of work — and the element must therefore not be used to mark up people's names. (In some cases, the b element might be appropriate for names; e.g. in a gossip article where the names of famous people are keywords rendered with a different style to draw attention to them. In other cases, if an element is really needed, the span element can be used.)"

The Comment Author is wrappen in cite-tag => functions.php and translation-files

I'm having issues getting Infinite Scroll through JetPack to work with HTML5BLANK;

below is my loop:

Then, below are the items in my functions.php file.

function mytheme_infinite_scroll_init() {
add_theme_support( 'infinite-scroll', array(
'container' => 'results',
'render' => 'mytheme_infinite_scroll_render',
'footer' => 'page',
) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'mytheme_infinite_scroll_init' );

function mytheme_infinite_scroll_render() {
get_template_part( 'loop' );
}

Any ideas??? I've tried everything; googled it a bunch of times to no avail.

I'm submitting this to see if it would be valuable/desired to submit a pull request adding a build script and some basic LESS style files.

The idea is to be able to write in LESS right out of the box in an intuitive way; not a complete "framework" of less files (like Bootstrap), but something a bit more basic, with simple mixins for browser compatibility and primary variables for colors and fonts.

Thoughts?

Sorry for the noob question, but I feel like I'm missing something obvious... how should I best get wordpress to load my (development) files from /src? Symlink it into my /wp-themes directory?

(And thanks for sharing this project, it's been very helpful!)

when contact form 7 is activated, not working and not displaying in my dashboard admin nav. thanks.

Again, considering the overhaul of html5blank (#77), are there any opinions on getting some php files out of the root directory? I usually use a partials/ folder with get_template_part for the header, footer, pagination, etc.

A few things jump out from a quick read:

Line 19, 21: if statement is indented but there's no enclosing reason for it to be, same thing with all functions declared below.

Line 50: 'function' is indented 3 instead of 4 spaces

Line 51: blank line before body of function, most other functions no, a couple have the same blank line

Line 54: statements inside if(!is_admin() block not indented

I'd be happy to fix this and submit a pull request if this is of interest.

Me, personally, I find mis-indented code extremely difficult to follow and am therefore extremely anal about getting it all consistent even if I may disagree with the specific style used by the main maintainer of the code.

As long as it's consistent, I can read it.

this is html5 theme, maybe add:

add_theme_support( 'html5', array( 'comment-list', 'comment-form', 'search-form', 'gallery', 'caption' ) );

Maybe this is me, but I tried changing all of the Custom Post type info in the functions.php file to create a new area for Job Postings.

Here's the code.

function create_post_type_html5()
{
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('category', 'custom-jobs'); // Register Taxonomies for Category
register_taxonomy_for_object_type('post_tag', 'custom-jobs');
register_post_type('custom-jobs', // Register Custom Post Type
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __('Impact Careers', 'html5blank'), // Rename these to suit
'singular_name' => __('HTML5 Blank Custom Post', 'html5blank'),
'add_new' => __('Add New', 'html5blank'),
'add_new_item' => __('Add New Impact Careers Job Posting', 'html5blank'),
'edit' => __('Edit', 'html5blank'),
'edit_item' => __('Edit Impact Careers Job Posting', 'html5blank'),
'new_item' => __('New HTML5 Blank Custom Post', 'html5blank'),
'view' => __('View HTML5 Blank Custom Post', 'html5blank'),
'view_item' => __('View Job Posting', 'html5blank'),
'search_items' => __('Search Job Postings', 'html5blank'),
'not_found' => __('No Job Postings found', 'html5blank'),
'not_found_in_trash' => __('No Job Postings found in Trash', 'html5blank')
),
'public' => true,
'hierarchical' => true, // Allows your posts to behave like Hierarchy Pages
'has_archive' => true,
'supports' => array(
'title',
'editor',
'excerpt',
'thumbnail'
), // Go to Dashboard Custom HTML5 Blank post for supports
'can_export' => true, // Allows export in Tools > Export
'taxonomies' => array(
'post_tag',
'category'
) // Add Category and Post Tags support
));
}

Everything changes in the Dashboard to respond to this, but when I try to visit the post after publishing it just goes to the 404 page. Not sure why here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The load_theme_textdomain() is called directly from functions.php.
But in the WP API docs I read this:

The load_theme_textdomain() function should generally be called from within the after_setup_theme action hook.
Ref: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/load_theme_textdomain
Add: http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/after_setup_theme

EDIT: Just checked and in WP 3.8 all 3 inluded themes call the load_theme_textdomain() function from the after_setup_theme action hook.(I realize that the word "generally" is used in the docs.)

Are there edge cases where translation wouldn't work properly when not called from the after_setup_theme action hook?

Hi, great theme! I want to add a class to the menu's ul nav. Is this not possible?

This doesn't work (only ul will display), had to delete some tags but you get my drift :

// DigiAdress navigation
function DigiAdress_nav()
{
wp_nav_menu(
array(

<!> 'items_wrap' => ul class='nav pull-right'>%3$s ,

    )
);

Is there a solution to add this class?

Hi,
I use Poedit to translate HTML5Blank into Vietnamese but my Poedit reports there is an error for missing path.
I am newbie on Wordpress.
thanks

I don't know if it's just me but since a couple of days, the loading seems to lag because it get stuck at trying to load the modernizr and conditionizr from the CDN of Cloudflare. When I remove those script from the function.php, it's much faster...

Any clue on why this CDN is laggy ? Maybe trying to find a faster CDN or adding it to the core will help.

Hey Tood

I'm currently working on breaking out the reset from style.css into it's own stylesheet as well as a couple of outher CSS changes.

Before I make the pull request, what are your thoughts on breaking out the CSS reset into it's own separate file which is called prior to style.css?

I suggest to place all JavaScript on footer rather than on header to speed up page load as suggested by YSlow and Google on performance issue.

Modernizr and Conditionzr could remain on header but Jquery and Scripts should be on footer to slightly speed up page load.

Or anyway we can do it manually? Please advice.

Notice: Undefined offset: 180 in functions.php on line 314

In functions.php line 314 we have
<?php if ($args['avatar_size'] != 0) echo get_avatar( $comment, $args['180'] ); ?>
This kept giving me a Undefined offset: 180 php notice.

Fixed the notice by just entering the the size into a string.
<?php if ($args['avatar_size'] != 0) echo get_avatar( $comment, '180' ); ?>

Hi todd can you advise me how to remove these gaps in your template?

I've tried with livereload and browsersync, looking at the page through my localhost using MAMP pro within a wordpress install. The theme is loaded properly, everything is compiling correctly. When I manually refresh I get the result I'm expecting but it doesn't automatically inject css/js changes.

Should you be escaping urls..

<link href="<?php echo esc_url (get_template_directory_uri()); ?>/img/icons/touch.png" rel="apple-touch-icon-precomposed">

Seems like there are some outstanding pull requests that can be merged. I can start closing out some issues on a new branch this week. What do you think?

https://github.com/toddmotto/html5blank/blob/50f29cba667762d896bdaf5e4b8bf141b79a6aa3/functions.php#L96

Three issues:

1. Google's hosted jQuery isn't launched in noConflict mode, as WP core's is.
2. The version you're linking to doesn't match with the version you're stating in wp_register_script()
3. As newer versions of jQuery ship with WordPress, you're locking your users into an old version, which will break things.

Please stop this.

If users really want to use Google-hosted libraries, kindly direct them to use this plugin instead:

http://wordpress.org/plugins/use-google-libraries/

Loving the theme, very well thought out and saves a lot of time.

However, it would be nice to have more customize options, in particular, the options to set the header text / tagline, on / off and maybe set your logo through a custom function rather than hard coding it.

An example on how you might do this can be found here:

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Lately I've been a huge fan of BrowserSync over livereload, so I thought it'd be worth a mention here. Especially with switching to gulp (#77), BrowserSync integration is dead simple: http://www.browsersync.io/docs/gulp/.

I've found it to be faster and far more feature-rich, so seems like a win-win.

somehow the footer got to the left navigation top section, and blocked some texts

I have the default search widget added to the sidebar on the blog page. When I try and use the search functionality, it just redirects to the homepage and doesn't perform any type of search.

Anyone have any experience with this in why it may be happening?

http://developer.creativ3group.com/creativ33/blog

1. I have a search.php file in the Theme
2. My permalink structure is /blog/%postname%

Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated. I also be happy to provide FTP/WP access if needed if someone wants to look under the hood as I have a few custom functions added.

Any plans for adding Schema.org microdata support for SEO benefits?

Hi there,

having some "trouble" with these date/time outputs... ;)

<span class="date"><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?> <?php the_time('g:i a'); ?></span>

1. User-Settings
   They won't use the users date/time setting from the backend... 12h/24h this isn't good for easy localisation.
2. Output
   And it produce this output in the german version: Juli 9, 2012 2:09 am
   "am" means (in german) something like "at" which is completly wrong behind the data ;)
3. Different date/time format output
   The date/time format for comments (in functions.php) is different to the loop.php, guess it would be better, if all these outputs looks similar...

What do you think?
And sorry for my english ✌️

Hello,

i'm using HTML5 Blank for a while now, i'm very happy with it :)

However, i have a small question, i dont understand why i dont have all the slugs on my main post page (in the admin, Settings > Reading > Posts page), when i select the page "News". It looks the add_slug_to_body_class() function doesn't work in this case.. i only have "logged-in" class on the body :(

Hi,
I am new to creating themes in Wordpress. I used your template to get started. However, I am having trouble figuring out how to display the full posts on the homepage rather than excerpts. The settings I chose under Settings > Reading > For each article in a feed, show > "Full text" do not seem to be applied to this theme.
How can I accomplish this?

Hey there,

I am having a little trouble with getting my site to show properly in IE8. In IE, I go to the Emulation section of the Developer Tools and change the Document to IE8, but it is showing mobile view. I can't seem to figure out how to get this to show correctly. When I did the same process for the html5blank.com site, it also shows mobile view in IE8.

I know IE8 compatibility is probably not a high priority, I was just hoping there might be an easy solution for this.

Thank you,

Erin

add_filter('image_send_to_editor', 'remove_thumbnail_dimensions', 10);
