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.

  1. I love that Theme, but I’ll install it when it support threaded comments. Tired adding new threaded comments feature to all my theme

  2. 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. 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?

  5. 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.

  6. @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.

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

  8. Oh, it’s a nice theme!But i have i have to put the code of snapshot, in other theme i put in footer.php but in carrington theme it don’t work if i put the code in footer.php.
    Where can i put it?I don’t want use any widget, only php code.Thanks

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

  10. 2.7 have been released, so any news?

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

  13. 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?

    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).

  16. 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. 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. I am running WP 2.7, by the way.
