    Hello:

    Love your theme and have used it. Have two issues, though:

    1) Is there a way I can rank/order the categories? Right now it is falling in alphabetic order.

    2) As the homepage downloads, for a brief second there is a flash of black background before the white comes on. I was wondering how to stop that (to see what I mean, perhaps you could take a quick look at http://www.mwcjournal.org, which is live at the moment). This ‘flash of black’ happens on a few other posts as well — while some pages are just fine (downloads cleanly on to the white background).

    Grateful for your help…

    Chindu

  • I’ve experienced this only with Google Chrome. And also the default theme does the same. Perhaps the way Chrome manages the CSS styles? On FireFox and IE, I cannot see this.

    Which browser are you using?

    About categories, this is related to the Categories widget that comes with WordPress, and the theme can do nothing. I seen some plugins that do what you want, unfortunately, I cannot remember the names, sorry.

    If you mean the header area is dark briefly you can resolve that by giving the header element a white background colour, it shouldn’t clash with what you have..

    It appears you have a dark background set, so it waits for the header image to finish loading, in the mean time while that happens it uses that darker colour…

    If that’s what you mean, just add this to the #header in the stylesheet (you have definitions for this in 3 places already).

    Find this…

    /* ------------------------------------------------------------- HEADER */

    Just below there, where you see #header… change this…
    background-color: #800000;
    for…
    background-color:#fff;

    As long as you don’t have other background images loading in the header that clash, it should resolve the background being dark whilst loading..
