rootdip's Introduction

rootdip

rootdip is a theme for WordPress based on work from Jesper. He's on GitHub too! It's fully compatible with WordPress 3.6.

Background

I thought Jesper's stuff looked nice, and no WordPress theme existed yet based on his HTML5 template. So here this is. Really though, all of the credit goes to Jesper, without his work this theme would not exist.

Demo

You can find a demo here, and a very large screenshot below at the end of this README.

Notes

Archive Page: There's a page template called Archives. Don't enter any page content, just title the page and select Archives for the page template. The archives will be generated automatically. See here for an example.
Link Post Format: To utilize the link Post Format, simply write a new post and select "Link" for the format. You'll also need to add a custom field with the URL you want to link to. The custom field name should be LinkFormatURL and the custom field value should be the URL you want to link to.
Quote Post Format: When using this post format, I usually use the author or source as the post title, and then put the quote inside a blockquote for the actual post content.
Status Post Format: Just put your status as the post title and publish (make sure you select the status format!). No post content is necessary.
Maintenance Mode: This option lets you show a "maintenance" message to visitors who aren't logged in. This can be useful while making changes to your website or while tinkering with RootDip. Just don't forget to disable it when you're done or your visitors won't see your site!
Fuzzy Timestamps: Enabling fuzzy timestamps on the options page will cause dates/times to display like "two days ago" or "4 hours ago", instead of dates showing "10/07/2011 11:23:34".

7. Twitter Widget: A custom twitter widget is included with RootDip as of version 2.1. This widget is based on the Simple Twitter Widget by Matthias Siegel. Matthias graciously allowed me to include his code in RootDip.

Other Considerations

A majority of the images included in RootDip are from the iconic icon set by P.J. Onori. Images from Iconic are the tag, sticky post identifier, link post format identifier, status post format identifier, quote post format identifier and left and right arrows. I will likely use more images from Iconic as I add additional features/post formats to RootDip.

rootdip's Issues

Comments Need Styling

See this screenshot, or below. Looks like crap.

Combine CSS files

Hello,

The theme includes 5 CSS files at the moment.

Here's my suggestions:

Put the content from css/style.css into style.css
Still use @import "css/960.css";(but before the content from css/style.css)
totop.css has a single CSS rule - Put that in style.css
IE.css should stay

Slider navigation

The slider navigation (1,2,3 and so on) is a navigation and should have <nav>

Btw what is the Thumbnail Viewer script for?

Post classes

Nice changes you've made lately :-)

In the CSS you have a lot of .post, .page, .attachment.

You don't need that.. The .hentry class is common for all of them

Remove <meta name="description" content="" />

There's no need for - especially when it's empty. My suggestion is to remove it and let SEO plugins handle it.

Archive index pages need hr to break posts up

The archive index pages need hr elements added to break up different posts. The main blog index page has them, but not the archive pages. Example of a page missing hr:
http://www.html5press.com/category/html5press/

Jayj HTML5 theme version 2.1

In case you don't know, I just released version 2.1 http://jayj.dk/jayj-html5-theme-version-2-1/

Remove white.png

The white.png image is no longer used

Remove fonts folder

The fonts folder and the files in it is no longer needed. Should be removed

Colors in Footer Don't Update

They stay pink, no matter what color scheme is selected.

Color Around Featured Image is Always Pink

The thin border around the featured images is always pink. It needs to be themed to the color selected in theme options.

BlockQuotes Can Interfere with Featured Images

See this screenshot, or see below.

Input types

You have input="text" on the input fields in the commentform. You should use email and url.

Theme Editor doesn't like html5 press

Despite chmodding the themes files correctly (even trying 777) The wordpress file editor tells me I need to allow permissions to the theme files in order to edit them.

This works on other themes but not on this one.

Running Wordpress 3.2.1

Why is login_errors changed?

Is there any reason why you're changing the login error message on the login screen?

add_filter( 'login_errors', 'html5press_generic_login_failure' );
function html5press_generic_login_failure() { return 'ERROR: The login you provided is incorrect.'; }

The errors can be quite useful and a theme should IMO not change it.

I may end up attaching a bunch of commits to this issue.
