If you change them there, they won't be overwritten if I update dkret3.</p> <p>(But best practise is to make most changes with CSS OR by filtering because if I make changes inside the template file you altered, you won't see any changes at all because you altered template file is used.) </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1243628 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:56:21 +0000 Almix 1243628@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>@kretzschmar: Thank you for all your answers!!</p> <p>You told me how to use child theme effectively. now i can use the small-sidebar by child theme myself. and i know what the grey pop work. i confused it before you told me that, but now i think it is really a good feature in this theme!</p> <p>i don't know how to use functions.php yet ( for example i want to hide the email box which is in the comments.php by myself ). may be i need learn more about it later. so i accept your advise and will recover the default comments.php file next.</p> <p>for the question about header image, i think that's not very important because i modify it by #header {cursor: auto;} in style.css in child theme, though the header image still link to the homepage. so you can determine whether you should add the new option, because this theme is design for all users.</p> <p>and now, i tell you why i didn't use the dkret3 support forum: because of the great fire wall (may be you know it), it is very hardly (or very slowly by proxy) to visit your website or forum in our country. so i hope you can understand it. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1243562 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 09:47:40 +0000 kretzschmar 1243562@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>New version with the changes is out. You can download it from my <a href="http://diekretzschmars.de">homepage</a> or wait a few days before it is live here at WordPRess.org. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1242884 Sun, 11 Oct 2009 18:51:16 +0000 kretzschmar 1242884@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>@Almix: added new option to link header image (or not) </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1242846 Sun, 11 Oct 2009 18:25:17 +0000 kretzschmar 1242846@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>@drustand: The dKret theme is for the wordpress version you can download on this page. You can find the dkret theme under the Extend link</p> <p>@Almix: I already filtered the navigation and added an example to the functions file of the my-dkret3 child theme. Stay tuned for the 3.3 update - soon to be released. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1242783 Sun, 11 Oct 2009 17:27:05 +0000 drustand 1242783@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I am new to Wordpress and to dkret. I cannot get the new theme to show up on my account. Can you tell me how to do that?</p> <p>drustand </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1242479 Sun, 11 Oct 2009 09:43:51 +0000 kretzschmar 1242479@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Why don't you use the dkret3 support forum if you want to contact the author of this theme (me)?</p> <p>1.<br /> I added the simple my-dkret3 child theme to dkret3 because so many problems had problems in creating a child theme.</p> <p>If you use a child theme you normally just want ONE design. That is the reason why I haven't added them to my-dkret3. You can copy all styles of the neeeded layout file (folder: library/layouts) and paste them to the style.css of my-dkret3.</p> <p>You can have all layout stylesheets AND the drop down field in the settings panel of my-dkret3 if you move (or copy) the library/layouts folder of dkret3 to the my-dkret3 child theme.</p> <p>2.<br /> The grey pop out is actually the comment PREVIEW. You can deactivate the preview in the settings panel of dkret3.</p> <p>3.<br /> The edit link is outside the entry-meta devision because if an child theme author wants to hide this devision with css (display: none) he will loose hide the edit link too.</p> <p>4.<br /> Don't edit any template files. You will loose your modifications after updating. I may add a filter to the navigation links in the next release. So you can make your changes inside the functions.php of your child theme (I will add a commented function to the my-dkret3 child theme - just uncomment it).</p> <p>5.<br /> I will change that.</p> <p>6.<br /> This is a feature of dkret3. Maybe you are right - Will think about it.</p> <p>7. Uploading header images is a function of WordPress. I prefer uploading them to the headers folder with <a href="http://ftp." rel="nofollow">ftp.</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1235306 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 05:05:34 +0000 Almix 1235306@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Add one more:<br /> 7. I found that upload a header image will add a new post(id) in SQL at the same time, that's a little intolerable for a cleanliness guy like me. I don't know whether WordPress do it or not, because i never upload image by write posts. I don't want a temporary image (it is always) will occupy the id as a post all the time. so I want to know, that can the dkret3 theme change the work mode if it can possibly implement in WordPress? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/317787#post-1235234 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 02:49:10 +0000 Almix 1235234@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I have some question and a little advises about this dkret3 theme, and hope they will make this theme better:</p> <p>1. When i use my-dkret3 child theme, Why the sidebar layout option disappear in my-dkret3 settings? i want to use the sidebar-small.css in child theme and modify my own style.css.</p> <p>2. when the cursor focus in the comment textarea, there is a long grey image pop out between "leave a comment" and "Your email is never published nor shared", do anybody take note of it? </p> <p>3. could you theme author move the "edit" link (right align) in to the tags area which is in the end of each post in your next version? i think that will looks better for blog owner, do you?</p> <p>4. In the single post page, the "previous post" and "next post" links display is a good function for readers, but as i know, we can display the previous post's TITTLE and the next post's TITTLE in this function. so i change the single.php like blow:<br /> <pre><code>&lt;div id=&quot;nav&quot; class=&quot;navigation&quot;&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nav-previous&quot;&gt;&lt;?php previous_post_link(&#39;%link&#39;); ?&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nav-next&quot;&gt;&lt;?php next_post_link(&#39;%link&#39;); ?&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</code></pre> <p>5. In the calendar, the DAY's align is center, but the DATE's align is left, so it is looks a little disorderly, and i found setting it all right-align looks better, could you try it and fix it?</p> <p>6. I think it's not good experience for blog reader move their mouse on header image but the cursor changed to 'hand', because that means they cannot click the mouse next, otherwise it will take them to the same page most of the time. so i remove the onmouseclick function myself. how do you think it? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/313976#post-1233571 Sat, 03 Oct 2009 09:42:14 +0000 kretzschmar 1233571@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Please use my forum for help.</p> <p>There will be a screencast in the near future (after I have some time) about using firbug.</p> <p>I made a little screencast in the past already.

I freely admit I don't have a clue what to change to get the side bar green. When I mouse over stuff in firebug certain parts of the screen will turn blue and I assume those parts of the code are associated with that part of the blog layout, none of the ones I moused over seemed to be associated with the right sidebar :(</p> <p>any more detailed instructions for a NOOB at modifying wordpress?</p> <p>I'm trying really I am :) </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/313976#post-1223026 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 09:10:31 +0000 Elvenrunelord 1223026@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I assume your talking about the Firebug plugin correct? Going to give it a try now and see what happens, will keep the thread updated and close if this works as needed.

Why don't you use the support forum of dkret3 if you need help?</p> <p>You site looks alright now. Please be more precise about those two occasions. Do you use the Custom Header Panel to upload you header image?</p> <p>I suggest to upload header images to 'wp-content/uploads/headers'. Then you can choose your header image inside the dkret3 settings page. You can even upload diffrent images to that folder and choose the option to randomly cycle through them. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/306628#post-1195973 Tue, 01 Sep 2009 21:36:51 +0000 lonsharkin51 1195973@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The link button doesn't seem to be working.

I'm new to Wordpress, so forgive me if this is something obvious. I'm using the dkret3 template, and I would like to only display a few lines of each post on my main page, with a "Read more" link for those who want to read the rest. Is this possible? If so, what do I need to do? Thanks for any help you can give me. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/246439#post-1180578 Wed, 19 Aug 2009 14:27:05 +0000 kretzschmar 1180578@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>It is nice to see that this ugly bastard is fixed. And please everybody looking for help please use the dkret3 forum.</p> <p>And please, everybody using dkret3 consider donating. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290959#post-1174885 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 12:48:14 +0000 kretzschmar 1174885@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>And it would be nice if you use the dkret3 forum the next time. That way all support questions are answered in ONE place. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290959#post-1174883 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 12:47:11 +0000 kretzschmar 1174883@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The default position of the blog title is on the right. The custom header API - which is used by the dkret theme - doesn't offer changing that direction.</p> <p>You can change the position with some lines of CSS. As I wrote earlier - add all needed css changed to a child theme.</p> <p>Or just deactivate the title and add it to your header image (as you already did). </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290841#post-1152798 Mon, 27 Jul 2009 15:51:23 +0000 kretzschmar 1152798@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>And I suggest writing your own CHILD THEME. It is really easy and you can safely update to future versions of dkret3. Have a look at the readme.html inside the dkret3 folder.</p> <p>I am back from vacation and you are welcome to post at the official forum. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290841#post-1151910 Sun, 26 Jul 2009 17:10:14 +0000 steveyoung 1151910@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>miguelmherando,</p> <p>Be sure you make a new schemes css file. Make the changes to that, not the source style sheet.</p> <blockquote><p> Schemes are CSS files that allow you to visually customize your blog, without ever touching the themes core files.<br /> Read the documentation for further information.</p></blockquote> <p>If not you will need to make these changes again each time you upgrade!</p> <p>Although it is for an older version, Jorn has a great video on how to make these changes. <a href="http://diekretzschmars.de/en/2007/04/screencast-making-schemes-for-dkret2/" rel="nofollow">http://diekretzschmars.de/en/2007/04/screencast-making-schemes-for-dkret2/</a> it is also in the documentation.</p> <p>We have been able to make WP sites match old HTML Static sites with this great feature and the flexable dKret3 theme! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290841#post-1142612 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 09:14:17 +0000 miguelmhernando 1142612@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Alchymyth, many thanks for your answer. It has also helped us understand better how the html works, and we are now trying to make some other changes. Once again, many thanks, you have been very helpful </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290841#post-1142405 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 00:46:22 +0000 alchymyth 1142405@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>part of it is an background image:<br /> <a href="http://www.melargodeviaje.com/wp-content/themes/dkret3/library/images/bg_green.png" rel="nofollow">http://www.melargodeviaje.com/wp-content/themes/dkret3/library/images/bg_green.png</a></p> <p>and the corresponding color is: #d8fbd8.</p> <p>so you need two steps:<br /> first change the graphic to a new color with gradient;<br /> second: replace all the #d8fbd8 in the style sheet with the color code of the bottom-edge color of your new graphic. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290959#post-1141982 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 17:39:05 +0000 miguelmhernando 1141982@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi, just another minor issue with dkret3 theme. When I edit the Custom header, both the web title and the phrase are on the left side, but when you take a look at the site <a href="http://www.melargodeviaje.com" rel="nofollow">www.melargodeviaje.com</a> both of these are on the right... Is there something that I'm missing? Thanks! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/290841#post-1141971 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 17:31:09 +0000 miguelmhernando 1141971@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>thanks! yes, forgot to put it <a href="http://www.melargodeviaje.com" rel="nofollow">www.melargodeviaje.com</a> </p>
