Mike Little's Journalized

I’ve just released a WordPress theme based on the Twilight movie.

Go check it out. If you have any questions or comments, please ask them or leave them on the theme page.

There is a new version of my Journalized theme available. This version, 2.7.2, fixes a couple of bugs raised by users.

• A couple of 2.7 only dependencies have now been fixed.
• A problem with versions of PHP less than 5 was fixed.
• The theme is now translatable and comes with Russian built in (Thanks to Dmitriy Donchenko)

Go to the theme page to download it.

As usual, please add your comments, questions, or bug reports to the theme page.

I am particularly interested in feedback on the internationalisation of the theme. This is the first time I have translated a theme, so I may have done some things wrong! I have included the POT, PO, and MO files. If anyone wishes to translate the theme to other languages, please do, I am more than happy to distribute other language files with the theme.

As a seasonal treat I have released the Xmas Skin I occasionally use on this blog as an extra skin for my Journalized theme.

You can download the xmas skin here:
xmas-skin-2.7.1.zip.

• Once you have downloaded it. Unzip it, then upload the files to your journalized/skins directory.
• Go to Appearance -> Journalized Options in the admin screen, and select the new skin.
• If you want a picture of Santa to appear along side your blog title, type ’santa.gif’ into the ‘Header Image’ box and uncheck both ‘Add the image in the background’ and ‘Turn off the blog title’.
• If you want your header to be full width, check that box and set header image height to be 138 pixels (that worked for me)
• Finally save your settings and you are done

I hope you enjoy this bit of seasonal frivolity.

The Journalized theme has been updated to version 2.7.1. This version fixes a couple of bugs in WordPress versions earlier than 2.7 (thanks Bill and Mike Walsh) and I’ve added Author posts links wherever necessary.

I’m still working on the translatable version of the theme. There may well be another release soon.
