6 months or so ago a contest was ran for WordPress themes, I entered my old theme in what was really a rushed job and I was never really happy with it, but I was also too busy or unwilling to fix a few bugs and styling errors in it, I spent about an hour last night revisiting it and fixing them and now it’s ready to be released…
It’s nothing special, it’s not perfect either as I used to hack numerous WP core files to make it work like I wanted to and as a theme for everyone I simply can’t do that, so I had to find a few workarounds, especially as WordPress likes to use lists to display sidebar items, not even ordered or unordered lists, it just spews out <li> tags which breaks validation… So it’s now valid (at last) and the CSS validates too, which is always a bonus.
I’m hoping to make a few new themes over the next few weeks, if only to keep me busy.
You can view it here, though this may be changing in a few days as I work on a few other new themes…
