GlossyBlue is Now Widget Support
January 22nd, 2007 Filed in: WordPress, News & Updates Jump to commentsAfter some long hours of learning how to widgetizing my GlossyBlue theme, it is finally released! If you previously downloaded and using my GlossyBlue theme, please update your files to newer version. It is now supporting WordPress Widgets. This means you can update and customize your sidebar without any programming knowledge. This is my first widget support WordPress theme. If you find any bug, please contact me. Also, I have setup a demo WordPress site so you can preview my themes before downloading them. Have fun!

Found a small issue with sidebar.php on WordPress 2.8.1 - In the SQL for showing ’subpages of current page’ (code which you attribute to the K2 theme), you have:
if ($wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = '$parent_id' AND post_type != 'attachment'")) {
I found that the sidebar was showing links to my revisions of pages, in addition to everything else.
I fixed this by modifying the line to read:
if ($wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = '$parent_id' AND post_type != 'attachment' AND post_type != 'revision'")) {
There of course may be cases that the above fix doesn’t resolve (I’m still learning WordPress) but it certainly solved my issue!

I had a lot of problems to use GlossyBlue with wordpress 2.6 . I had to revert back to Wordpress 2.5. Am I unlucky or is it necessary to update the theme?
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nick,
Just wanted to thenk you for your wordpress glossyblue theme.
Here is another application of this fantastic theme, off course maintaining the XHTM and CSS vlidity (which for me is very important).
By the way….In my logo (which is called by the stylesheet.css) I cant put a link (cause it comes from the css) If I try to insert it in header.php it transforms the page in ‘non XHTML valid.
How did you arrange it here in your website with the logo (top right of the background image) ?

Great Theme,
I’m using the translated to hebrew version in my website (http://hofshi.co.cc)
I have one question, do you know how can I add “the_excerpt” option to this theme?
