The ramblings on of a Runescape adventurer and some other guy
As you probably already know, Nightgunner5 and I are working on creating a WordPress theme called Modern Blue. With WordPress 2.5 just around the corner, we’ve decided to tell everyone how they can help.
You can now download Modern Blue 2.0-beta 1. Click one of the links below, extract the contents of the archive, and put it in your wp-content/themes folder. If you find any bugs, please file a bug report here.
This is a followup of a post called Microsoft says IE8 is standards compliant. I think not.
I was testing my template on IE7 and IE8–along with a bunch of other browsers–when I noticed that IE7 rendered the pages of my test blog better than IE8. I took a few screenshots, but there are even more bugs than I could fit into this blog post.
First of all, I would like to say that I’m using IE7-JS to make my pages render better, but in the admin, there is no such thing, and I have IE7-JS set to work on all Internet Explorer versions.
The first thing I noticed was that floats did not work in IE8 on the galleries that are standard with WP2.5.
Sir Soybean and I have been working on making this blog’s theme look pretty. What you may not know yet is in three weeks, you’ll be able to use it with your blog! Unfortunately, the template will require WordPress 2.5, so you’ll have to either wait until it is released or download an unstable copy via the subversion repository. But you can, however, download a copy from the LlamaSlayers subversion repository, or a stable release from our Google code project.
Please, if you find out anything wrong with the template or want us to add new features, let us know.
Of course, since WP2.5 hasn’t been released yet, this blog isn’t running on the new version that you can download at the Google code Visit the blog to read more of "Modern Blue" WordPress template planned release for WP 2.5
