Hey, thanks! Love the theme…. still using it at Whispers on an Ancient Wind….
I’ve been using the Relaxation_3column theme. Do you think what you’ve done would be easily transferable to it?

It should be transferable. Problem is, that you can’t just copy the gettext()-preparated files of my version to the 3 column-theme.
But I will download the 3 column-theme and have a look at the differences.
The *.po-file should be usable anyway, you just need to prepare the template-files.
Excellent theme however when I try to view my local site after changing to the theme I get:
Fatal error: Class ‘CachedFileReader’ not found in C:\Server\xampplite\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\wp-l10n.php on line 72
Me too. Using WordPress 2.0.
Found out how to fix it. Edit wp_config.php and change line 15 so it reads
define (‘WPLANG’, ‘en_US’);
Just found another bug. If you display the page for posts by category or date then links show as plain text.

Oh sorry, not mentioned the thing with the wp-config.php. I will edit the readme.txt and make this more clear.
Simon, I will check this.

Okay, so the first one (setting the ‘WPLANG’-definition in wp_config.php) isn’t really a bug. If english isn’t your native language you usally set this variable after a new wordpress installation (e.g. I’m german and set this thing to de_DE). You english-speaking guys just have the luck, that nearly all themes are not localized and are written in english. 😀
But I will check if there is the possibility to set a default language for multilanguage-themes…
But I can’t reproduce the second ‘bug’ mentioned by simon. Since the category-archive and the monthly archives are using the_excerpt() function (like the wordpress default theme), usally no links or images should appear on those pages. I’ve just tested this with a clean fresh installation, no problems here.
Simon, are you using a plugin like “Textile” and/or “Text-Control”? Anyone else having this problem?
Can’t help you there, I change all the_excerpt calls to the_content.
I’ve just tried the default theme and it displays links and images when an archive page is selected. When I use the relaxation theme they don’t appear. I’m not using any plugins. However reading about the_excerpt() function on http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_excerpt then this is meant to happen.
The default theme leaves them in? Maybe relaxation is behaving correctly and the default theme is wrong?

No, I think they changed it in v2.0. In v1.5 the archive-pages used the_excerpt(). Now they use the_content().
So if you like to see the archive-pages with links and images, just change the line:
<?php the_excerpt() ?>
to
<?php the_content() ?>
in the file: archiv.php.
Shure I can change that in the theme, but I’m not shure what people like more. I think the archive-pages should give a quick overview over the postings of a category or a given time. And if you want to read of a specific post, then you “open” it via a click of the header and view it at the single-page. Should I change the_excerpt() function to the_content() ? Hm… thinking about it.

I didn’t even notice it till now. But I never used the default.
Now I am sure that will cut the number of questions like “where are my links, images in mnthly archives… etc” –
though judging by simonwarren’s post it will increase the “why my posts are shown in full in the archive”-type of posts around here.
Yes, I know: you can never please everybody.

*g*
You’re right moshu, I think most of the people would like to see the whole posting with all links and images. That’s what they expect… 😉
I will change the theme that way…
