Carrington and WordPress 2.7

Several people have asked about Carrington’s compatibility with WordPress 2.7. The answer is that we won’t know until 2.7 is final, but all features currently seem to work fine.

We’ll look at supporting new features in WP 2.7 (threaded comments, etc.) in a new version of Carrington once WP 2.7 has been officially released.

      This is a threaded comments!
      Just like your nickname: Funny.

  2. Slava says

    There was announced, that WP 2.7 will be officially released to the end of November. So we are waiting…

    Is there a page without sidebars included in Carrington (or if there’s a list of pages somewhere I’d love to know). Thanks!

  4. Slava says

    you could easily delete get_sidebar(); from pages-default – and there will be no sidebar on every page. But be careful – there will be free place on the right from page content, to avoid this you need customize your css/carrington-blog.css or create new one, for example page-nosb.css (and of course you’ll need to implement it).
    The best way is to create pages-nosb.php and pages-nosb.css to work together. Can you do it?

    Hello,

    @salva : in fact what is currently missing is a page-{slug}.php capability in /sidebar.

    Currently if you want a specific sidebar for a specific page, you have not only to delete get_sidebar() put to write the sitebar code (and of course its accompagnying css code) in the page template, what is a little be opposite of the atomic aspect of the theme/framework.

    @Luc:
    You’re right. But I meant to use not the specific sidebar for specific page but without sidebar at all on a specific page. Of course, you should call it using:
    cfct_page(‘nosb’); and cfct_sidebar(‘nosb’);
    And css-editing is needed in any way.

    It would be great to have this feature/implementation discussion join the others like it that are going on in the forums.

  9. Matt Strange says

    Cool, i think the Safari search bar would be a nice alternative for the current search bar. Good work!

  10. Tueac says

    2.7 have been released, so any news?

  11. Matt says

    First time I’ve used this theme, so in the options, I only see Misc (about, header, footer). Should I see more and it’s just 2.7 stopping me? Or can I only control those few things?

    I like the theme a lot, but not being able to customize that side bar is annoying

  12. Johnny says

    yes
    it is working fine..
    looking forward for the threaded comments support

  13. Daniel says

    Hi,
    I use this wonderful theme but I am not sure it is 2.7 compatible, can I upgarde to 2.7 and my theme will work?

  14. Frederick says

    Mr. King:
    I just started using Carrington for my blog and I am thoroughly impressed. It’s that rare combination of beauty and functionality where neither comes at the expense of the other. I’m particularly a big fan of the “AJAX”-loading of posts and comments; it’s a very elegant solution sparing visitors a lot of time.

    My main gripe is about the comments section (like the one I’m writing in now). I think the area where the comments are displayed is too narrow, particularly for long comments (which I get many of on my blog) necessitating too much scrolling to read all the comments . Obviously, this will become an even bigger problem when comment threading is implemented for WordPress 2.7 – that’s why I’m mentioning it in this thread.

    I would suggest putting the “Commenter Name/Gravatar/Date of Comment” at the top or at the bottom of each comment (or at least include this as an option) so that comments are displayed over the full width of the blog page.

    (I’ll cross-post this suggestion as a feature request at the forum as soon as I get around to registering, by the way.)

    Would be useful to use the “category”-line for subpages when surfing pages (instead of categories).

    I use this wonderful theme but I am not sure it is 2.7 compatible, can I upgarde to 2.7 and my theme will work?

    This site is (at the moment) running WP 2.7.

  17. Sid says

    I’ve been using this theme on my blog and I am having issues with the “Logout” button, not in the Admin section though. I think it’s something to do with nonces.

  18. Sid says

    I am running WP 2.7, by the way.

  19. Ally says

    I’m running 2.7 with Carrington and now my comments don’t work… at all… anyone else having this problem? They worked before I upgraded.

  20. Kiki says

    Would love you to support threaded comments with this theme – I am trying to implement the niharsworld.com workaround for this but unfortunately I am no php whiz . Any help or info would be grand!

  21. Papa @ Oaktownies.com says

    We are using WordPress 2.7 and Carrington 1.3. (And this is admittedly my first foray into all thing wordpress or PHP.)

    I too would like to see threaded comments supported.
    The logout issue that conflicts with WP’s nonces affects me also.

    I do not yet know if this is a Carrington issue or my own, but I have yet to be able to customize my pages.
    Can’t get wordpress to use “page-example.php” in the theme root or any other page-{page} combination for that matter.

    Those issues aside, I am really impressed with this software. Thanks for your work.

  22. Danny Brown says

    For anyone looking for threaded comments, have you tried the IntenseDebate or Disqus plug-ins?

  23. Angelica says

    Is there a way to create a page for each category? I mean, I need to put all my posts under category “X” in a page “X” (excluding them from the home).
    Can anybody help me?
