GlossyBlue Theme Update

Filed in: News & Updates Jump to comments

It has been a while since my last blog post. As usual, I’ve been very busy with my work and life. Lately, I have been receiving a lot of emails about the "c2c_get_recent_posts()" undefined function in my GlossyBlue advanced version. The reason you are receiving this error because you forgot to install the plugin or you haven’t activated it yet. I apologize for the lack of installation guide. To prevent this error happening, I have integrated the Simple Recent Comments by G-Loaded. This means there will be no more plugin installation required. So, I’ve decided to release a new standard version 1.3. If you are using GlossyBlue theme, I strongly recommend to download the updated version. I have fixed some PHP and CSS bugs. Also, it has been tested under WordPress 2.1 (view demo).

Big thanks to those who had sent me comments, feedbacks, and suggestions to improve this theme.

    Hello, I am customizing your beautiful theme to use it in my blog, mainly translating it into spanish, when I’m done i will notify you.
    I have find a problem when using your theme and Widgets sidebar, beacuse in the blogroll part it does not show bullets before links. I don’t know if it’s widget plugins’ fault or glossyblue’s, but it’s a pity hwn in general your theme is visually so attractive.

    For those who have customized this theme, the only changed files are style.css and footer.php.

    Also note that there are two new files: about_text.txt and simple_recent_comments.php

    Thanks Guillaume,

    Actually, the sidebar.php has changed also. So, the updated files should be: style.css, footer.php, and sidebar.php.

    I really like this theme. If I can make a couple of suggestions (but please feel free to disregard); a) it’d be nice to have the year included with the datestamp, since an individual post viewed by itself will only show the day/month. Also, the blockquote needs more prominent styling. Finally, you might want to consider uploading your theme to the official wordpress site for wider dissemination. Thanks again for all your hard work, it’s most appreciated.

    Great theme. Best layout I have stumbled on yet. I am in the process of modifying the look a bit but am keeping the structure in place. It sure has made my site look better.

    Thanks for all the hard work.

    Hi there, I’ve just seen your iTheme Blog and it looks great! Nice work. I was wondering however, how do you make that background?? The Mac style wallpapers look really cool, perhaps you could run a tutorial sometime :)

    Hi great theme thanks for the nice work and effort. I am running a modded version but i have run into two snags. the first is that i can not get the link icons to show up in the sidebar. it should be noted that i had the same problem with the unmodified version as well.

    the second and more important one is that i want to modify the way blockquotes display but i cant seem to find the code anywhere. can some one please help?

    thanks.

    This is the best theme I’ve ever seen. Too bad when we add photos from flickr (500px), they’re cut off a little bit on the right. Any way to fix this without breaking the site?

    Hi……..

    I am trying to get gravatar working on my blog, so that any users posting comments who have a gravatar associated with their email address, will have their picture posted along with their comment.

    I have downloaded the gravatar plugin for wordpress, from this site and installed it successfully.

    http://site.gravatar.com/site/implement#section_2_2

    In the implementation section it gives examples of HTML to add in order to use the plugin… But I’m not sure -where- this code is supposed to be added.

    I used wordpress 2.2.2 with GlossyBlue 1.4 theme. In the comments.php I put the code like this:

    ” alt=”Author comment” align=”right” width=”80″ height=”80″ />

    after :

    and before :

    ” id=”comment-”>

    So, my comment.php look like this:

    ” alt=”Author comment” align=”right” width=”80″ height=”80″ />

    ” id=”comment-”>

    But i get error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘?’ in /home/glossyblue-1-4/public_html/wp-content/themes/aufklarung/comments.php on line 23

    Please give help

    In a plug-in simple_recent_comments.php at use of coding UTF8
    The second byte in the letter, in languages of distinct from English is sometimes passed!
    i use this modification!

    ———————————
    mb_internal_encoding(”UTF-8″);
    function src_simple_recent_comments($src_count=7, $src_length=60, $pre_HTML=’Recent Comments’, $post_HTML=”) {
    global $wpdb;
    $sql = “SELECT DISTINCT ID, post_title, post_password, comment_ID, comment_post_ID, comment_author, comment_date_gmt, comment_approved, comment_type,
    comment_content
    FROM $wpdb->comments
    LEFT OUTER JOIN $wpdb->posts ON ($wpdb->comments.comment_post_ID = $wpdb->posts.ID)
    WHERE comment_approved = ‘1′ AND comment_type = ” AND post_password = ”
    ORDER BY comment_date_gmt DESC
    LIMIT $src_count”;
    $comments = $wpdb->get_results($sql);
    $output = $pre_HTML;
    $output .= “\n”;
    foreach ($comments as $comment) {
    $comms = mb_substr(strip_tags($comment->comment_content),0,$src_length);
    $output .= “\n\tID) . “#comment-” . $comment->comment_ID . “\” title=\”on ” . $comment->post_title . “\”>” . $comment->comment_author . “: ” . $comms . “…”;
    }
    $output .= “\n”;
    $output .= $post_HTML;
    echo $output;
    }

    Yeah.. this is a great theme, and i used it. But, i have some trouble when changing the navigational code on index.php :

    span class="previous-entries" php posts_nav_link ('','','« Older Entries') ?> span

    span class="next-entries" php posts_nav_link('','Newer Entries »','') ?> span

    I’ve changed code above with kubrick/default navigational code to replace the Older Entries and Newer Entries text with post/article title. Like below :

    span class="previous-entries" php previous_post_link('« %link') span
    span class="next-entries" php next_post_link('%link »') span
    .

    I got above code in kubrick’s single.php file. But the output is disappear. I’ve read the tut on http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/posts_nav_link and have implemented some guidances on that but still can’t change the Older Entries and Newer Entries text to post/archive title.

    So, please tell me the way. Thanks

    PS : i removed some tags on above code so that its appear on this post.

    Hi Nick,

    Thanks for releasing GlossyBlue publicly and for free. It’s a very well done theme. I just installed it onto WP 2.3.1 and it works wonderfully.

    Thanks again,
