I just updated WordPress and now I’m getting bullets flowing down the page after every post (when viewed alone). I am using Green Park 2 0.9.502. See http://www.ugiansky.com/ then click on any of the post titles for an example of the problem. And thanks for the cool theme!
Solved. The theme upgrade conflicted with the Sexy Bookmarks plug-in and that was causing the problem. I removed then re-installed the plug-in and I’m happily back in business. I really like this theme and I’m glad I don’t need to switch.
The green park 2 theme looks great in Firefox but in IE it doesn’t display the sidebar correctly. You can see this on my website. Is there a fix for this? PS – the only change I made to the themes was the colors of the navigation and button images. I even installed the latest beta 5 version.
