In reply to: WordPress 2.2 CAN NOT delete postThe plugin “Google Sitemap Generator for WordPress v2 Final” causes this problem,when I disabled this plugin, the blog turns to normal,when I enable this plugin, the “504 gateway error” will display.
I have tried every work-around for not being able to delete posts or pages until I found this post.
Using WordPress 2.01 and disabling the Sitemap Generator plugin, worked like a champ.
Thank you so much for posting this.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks davidmsc,
I have followed a lot of the advice given above, and have set up Gazette on it’s own site which is now available for viewing, and beta download.
Would those of you who looked at it previsously, please take another look and let me know if I am making any progress. There are links available there for downloading and beta testing at http://www.gazette.computersandthings.com
Thanks for all your input. Hopefully it has helped make a better theme.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks to all of you who have commented so far.
I am working feverishly to get the public theme ready for review. It will be stark in contrast to what you see on my live site.
I will make some more changes to my live site once that is done. As to what I need to know now, is does it functionally work for you in IE 6.0 and above, FireFox, and other more modern browsers, and at resolutions from 800×600 1024×728, and 1280×1024?
It would be a monumental challenge to make it work in every browser used on the internet.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks VeronicaRose,
I might take out the background image in the one offered for the public, but leave the option there for someone to turn it on if they choose.
I won’t take it out of my live blog. It is part of the concept for my blog.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteHi RadoVleugel,
Thanks for your input.
A lot of critique comes from personal taste. I looked at your two sites mentioned above, and I didn’t think they looked “nice” either, but that is my personal taste.
That is the purpose of a theme and having it open-source is that the person getting the theme has the choice to leave it as is, or change it to their personal taste.
Most themes are chosen because they have 1, 2, 3 or more columns and colors.
This is simply another choice to be added to the list.
The layout of the 3 basic columns was designed by some of the best designers on the web. I merely followed their instructions.
Will it suit everyone? No. Will it be used. I am ceratain of it.
I am looking for help with finding design flaws of which I am certain there are plenty.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteFor nmallory, Otto42, moshu, I have adjusted and lightened the background image, changed the fonts, and changed the background colors of the headers.
The stock theme will not have the flashfader header. It will have a header image with The Blog Name in Huge letters News paper style.
Please let me know if what you see now is more in line with the Gazette idea, and if it appears a little less busy.
I hope to have the stock site up tomorrow or Friday.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteIf you can contact me using the information in my original post, I can send you the beta that I am currently using on my site. It has code in it referencing several plug-ins that I use, and they will have to be commented out and the original code uncommented for it to work unless you install the plug-ins.
For those who commented earlier, I am working on lightening up the background image, changing fonts, to make it look more newspaperish, and I am working on a sanitized (free of plug-in code) version, and hope to have the dedicated Gazette blog up soon where I will make available for download by everyone.

In reply to: Blog Theme with view to releaseHi LiverpoolLad,
It all looks fine in FireFox for me.
I like the header, it has a lot of artistic work done there, and it has a solid look to it.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks LiverpoolLad!
I don’t use google ads either but I do advertize some select books on the left outer column.
It has lots of possibilities like the news feeds on the outer right column.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks Moshu,
I have adjusted the fonts in the center and set them at 500. I think Otto42 was correct that they needed to be a little thicker.

In reply to: New 5 column theme named GazetteThanks nmallory and Otto42 for your input.
I will see if I can adjust the fonts in the center to be a little thicker to make it easier to read.
I have tried the other way of making the saturation on the background image less, but then it hardly shows through at all, so I’ll try the bolder font way.

In reply to: A Big Thank YouThanks 2fargon about it looking cool.
I included everyone in my thanks previously, because it is everyone including the people who respond in the support area that helped make it possible to get this package set up. 🙂
When I need to know something, I simply searched the support area, the codex, and usually found my answer.

In reply to: Neptune – a new 3-column theme (WP1.5)Yngwin,
I think the new Neptune Theme is phenominal. As for any additions in the left sidebar, a calendar is always nice. It look fabulous just as it is. You might even consider a weather update link like the Trident Theme.
I have just installed and set up a test machine for my blog, and am looking at various themes, and yours would be my top choice.
Thanks for your hard work.
