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.

Is there a page without sidebars included in Carrington (or if there’s a list of pages somewhere I’d love to know). Thanks!
by Sue on Nov 24, 2008 at 4:49 pm
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.

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

2.7 have been released, so any news?
by Tueac on Dec 11, 2008 at 3:53 am
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
by Matt on Dec 11, 2008 at 2:36 pm
yes
it is working fine..
looking forward for the threaded comments support

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).

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

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.
by Sid on Jan 3, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I am running WP 2.7, by the way.
by Sid on Jan 3, 2009 at 12:12 pm
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.
by Ally on Jan 12, 2009 at 1:36 pm
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!
by Kiki on Jan 21, 2009 at 3:31 pm
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.

For anyone looking for threaded comments, have you tried the IntenseDebate or Disqus plug-ins?
by Danny Brown on Jan 25, 2009 at 1:44 pm
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?

Your wordpress theme looks stunning!

RESOLVED — Turns out I had a conflict with a WP Plug-in, called “Broken Link Checker”….after I disabled the plug in, the links were right as rain.
Cheers…
