Chillez.com » theme http://www.chillez.com ... just a playground to experiment with blogging Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:29:52 +0000 en hourly 1 To-do wishlist – Update http://www.chillez.com/2009/03/to-do-wishlist-update/ http://www.chillez.com/2009/03/to-do-wishlist-update/#comments Mon, 23 Mar 2009 13:29:26 +0000 Gilles http://www.chillez.com/?p=322 As previous visitors might have noticed I switched from the 2-column dark theme to a 3-column light theme. The dark theme is still a beautiful theme but it had a kind of ‘warez-look’. This light Child Theme Byty is based on the Thematic framework. I will use this one to further develop my site.

Regarding my to-do list,  a few items are resolved now that I have changed the WordPress theme:

  • Shorten the height of the header. Don’t know why a lot of themes (and website) use such a large header. I agree you need some space to show off your logo and flashy site/brand name but it doesn’t mean you have to spoil valuable pixels. E.g looking at a site on the smallest Macbook or any netbook with a browser which has the adress toolbar and tab-browsing enabled, only has so many pixels available for showing content…
  • Add second sidebar and maybe even make the width dynamic instead of fixed.
  • Replace the ‘Previous’  and ‘Next’  page indicators with real page number (already experimented with 2 plugins but they require some tweaks to fit my theme.
  • LifeStream plugin works nicely with auto-grouping of events but somehow it does not display the  events in a group in chronological order. Weird but true. Have to look into that and try to fix it. Maybe even going to try to have the event timestamp displayed when showing details.
  • Add search. The build in WP search widget looks ugly in my theme.
  • Add About page and/or show ‘About-info’  on homepage. I tried the WP build in free-text widget but didn’t like the outcome.
  • And looking at a preview of this list; ad color to the bullets or something else to juice up a list.
  • …

To be continued.

Ik wil bijvoorbeeld geen datum image op de vaste paginas, leuk voor een blog post maar niet voor op een pagina. Als ik de datum weg haal dan verschuift de titel niet naar links maar blijft vrolijk staan. Ik heb het voorlopig maar zo gelaten. Op de pagina ABOUT staat de footer ineens bovenaan de pagina. De plugin content word klaarblijkelijk niet als inhoudt gezien of iets dergelijks. Deze uitdagingen vergen wat meer studie…

Start gemaakt met de pagina IPHONE maar ook dat is nog niet wat ik eigenlijk wil. Wordt vervolgd.
