Topic: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

Please note that Arras Theme 1.5 is still a work of progress and the update is still subject to changes. There are still many bugs to squash and tweaks to be done. DO NOT use it in production environments!

Key Features

  • Added new alternative styles (blue, red, green, orange, violet). Legacy stylesheet will be added in future betas.

  • Added custom post types and taxonomies support in theme options.

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

This update SEEMS GREAT!
Love the new styles!

Cant wait for the official release!

(I suggested footer alignment, can you see if that's possible please?)

THANKS!

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

I had to choose the taxonomy for everything first before I could choose what to display where on the home-page. This might be confusing for some (love the idea for this by the way, I might think of something for the featured posts 2 with that).

But weird, I choose 4 posts for featured posts 1 and get 7.

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

One thing I think you have to fix is the insertion of Google Adsense, because I have tried several ways to insert it and it just doesn't work with this theme. If you can insert Google Adsense into the theme then I think someone definately needs to make a tutorial about how to do so.

Bugs:

Home - Stickied Posts /:
In the home tab I can only select "Stickied" for category. Shouldn't I be able to select another such as "Featured" or w/e? (Yes I have multiple posts with multiple categories)

General - Display Credits:
Check box doesn't work.

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

Read my post to fix that with the stickies and no categories smile

(I said it was confusing :-p)

How do I download it? Every time I try to, it says download failed because the folder where the contents are is already being used by 1.5b1, or something like that.

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

You need to locate the windows folder that contains your internet downloads and either use the one already downloaded, overwrite the current file or delete the current file and download a fresh one.

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

Yea, I'm not getting the title, category and author headers. Display Credit checkbox not working either.

Also, the featured post widget, when shown on a single page, only displays the post for the page you are viewing multiple times. Does that as the stand alone widget and in the tabbed widget.

Great theme though - looking forward to the fixed bugs for WP3.0.

Thank you.

Fix for empty titles and descriptions in single posts.

Replace this PHP function in /library/filters.php:

function arras_post_taxonomies($content) {
    global $post;
    $postmeta = '';
    
    if (arras_get_option('single_custom_taxonomies') == '') return $content;
    
    $arr = explode( ',', arras_get_option('single_custom_taxonomies') );
    $final = array();
    
    if ( !is_array($arr) ) return $content;
    
    foreach($arr as $term) {
        $term_list = get_the_term_list($post->ID, $term, '', ', ', '');
        $term_obj = get_taxonomy($term);
        
        if ( !is_wp_error($term_list) && !empty($term_list) ) {
            $postmeta .= '<div class="single-post-meta clearfix">';
            $postmeta .= '<span class="single-post-meta-field single-post-meta-' . $term . '">' . $term_obj->labels->name . ':</span>';
            $postmeta .= '<span class="single-post-meta-value single-post-meta-' . $term . '-value">' . $term_list  . '</span>';
            $postmeta .= '</div>';
        }
    }
    
    return $content . $postmeta;
}

Re: Arras Theme 1.5b2 Now Available

I'm having a little problem.
I select two different categories to display in Featured Posts # 1 and featured
Posts # 2. I realized that not only display the categories that I selected.

I select a single category to view the News Posts and does not work. This feature is buggy, View all categories.

Any help ?
