My point exactly, real world environments call for IE. wish they didn’t.

I’m actually considering setiing up a site to petition MS not to make any more browsers. Think of how many designers sigs we could gather.

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

Here are two tables with the wrong ID: Content > Images —> edit image Content > File —> upload pane and edit file

they have an ID of #list, where as it obviously is an edit pane and not any kind of listing.
—> ID should be #edit ! (by current logic)

Dale, I’d be glad to donate some time to helping set that up.

I’ve uploaded a first pre-alpha version of my phiw theme: download link. And screenshot. Experimental.

Feedback appreciated (prolly by mail or so, don’t clutter this thread) ;-). I’m curious how the header navigation feels. And I still need to figure out how to make that navigation more friendly to keyboard users.

Note – The above screenshot was taken with an hour-old Minefield nightly build. Some small details won’t show up in any other browser. Thing should otherwise work well in Safari3, Fx 3, Opera9.6, IE 8 – and maybe IE 7.

You probably know this but just to warn others who may try: this theme doesn’t work in IE 6.

It’s awesome in Firefox and Chrome.

Yes, I know that. I don’t support IE 6 with this theme (I’ve stated that in previous threads on my theme). If the download was a full release, I’d add that info in a readme file. The display of the menu can be made to work with a little hacking, similar as the treatment IE 7 gets. For the rest, too many adjacent siblings selectors.

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

Following up on my last post . . .

Initial impression was positive. After some time with the new theming feature, I’m liking it even more ( ironic given that I’m pretty happy with classic).

I’ve made Jon Hick’s admin theme (needs some tweaking yet) and a modified version nemoorange’s “seagloss” work w/ theming. I see great potential to rework them w/out the tables.

Really nice addition to Txp, wet

Thanks again

Mike

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

This is amazing. The theme switcher rocks.

Nonetheless, I have a minor (cough..) problem with SVN. The backend works just fine, but the front site doesn’t load the correct css. Actually, the CSS url that is generated omits the ‘textpattern’ folder. As this: http://www.mysite.com/css.php?n=default. Don’t know why. Yes I noticed that little lines of warning about ‘user_name’ table in upgrading, but didn’t take seriously… :)

I can live without theming until 4.0.9, BUT, if some gentle soul has any hint about what could be happening here (tried 2 different installs on different servers), so that I could start using SVN on minor sites to play with, well, I’ll be grateful. If not, no problem. No need to start another thread for that.

Did I mention that theming rocks?

This is expected behaviour, and related to change set 3163. Please verify the existence of css.php in your site’s root directory.

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

Am I missing something here? It appears that messages (eg. “article poopoo created”) don’t show up since I loaded the theming revision.

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

Just double checked. I get the message on the plugin tab (installed, updated), but not on any other tabs it seems.

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

It’s appearing on my installs. Is this happening for you with all themes or just one in particular?

Re: Admin Side Theming! (r3149)

Hmm. . In my case, it is appearing on one install, and not on the second install. The first (working install) is the one I am on most often. That’s why I had not noticed the issue prior.

Both are latest svn. Both have the same themes installed. The message is present across different themes on the first install. It is missing across Remora and SeaGloss on the second install.

I’ll have to do some digging to see what might be causing it.
