Cordobo Green Park 2 Alpha 7

I updated my WordPress theme Green Park 2 to Alpha 7 (the theme you’re looking at), with a lot of improvements to the codebase and full support for IE6 incorporated. Cordobo Green Park 2 is a simple & elegant light-weight theme for WordPress with a clean typography, built with seo and page-rendering optimizations in mind.

The theme is released as “ALPHA”, to let you know I’m still adding features and improvements. So please feel free and report any bug you may encounter in the comments section below.

Featurelist

  • Fully compatible with WordPress 2.7.1 and up
  • Support for WordPress widgets
  • Light-weight: optimized CSS for really fast cross-browser rendering, less graphics (Grade “A” in YSlow)
  • Fast: the minimum set of SQL queries
  • Findability: SEO optimizations for humans and search-engines
  • Accessible: clean and structured code for screen-readers and “jump links” for navigation
  • A very clean typography for advanced readability
  • Use of css sprites for images for even less http-requests

  1. Great theme Andreas!, really love it.

    I’ve started a new blog and thought I’d use your theme on it…I’ve started installing the plugins I want to use and came across a comment system plugin called Disqus (disqus.com) which I think offers tons of awesome features, its integrated well with the theme though probably needs a few tweeks to the style around it here and there as it looks very plain so I’ll have to figure that out,

    anyway my bug is very simple (though for someone with no experience in programming not so much), after I installed the Disqus plugin the “Leave a reply >>” link shifted to the left just next to the Edit link and I’m not sure how to get it back to its place:

    thats a screenshot :), what do you think of the Disqus comment system? have you tried it? would be cool if you made greek park 2 the first Disqus fully compatible theme =P

  2. Jason,

    I guess it’s a missing css-class causing that issue.

    Personally I don’t use disqus or similar systems nor do I plan it for the future. They have some advantages over the regular comments but if the service closes or if their backup fails like magnolia.com, you might loose all your comments. (I know, that can happen with your own database as well, but then again it’s your own fault).

    NTL, I’ll have a look at it, thanks for the comment!

  4. Love the theme!,

    I had a quick question,

    I want to add a bullet (list-style-type:disc) or img in front of every title in the Latest Post, Popular Post, Random Posts ect… widget links in the sidebar to make them stand out a little more, I tried adding:

    list-style-type:disc

    in the:

    div#sidebar ul.group {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 0 0 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0;
    width: 148px;
    list-style-type:disc
    }

    and

    div#sidebar ul.sb-list {
    margin-left: 10px;
    }

    css stylesheet classes but it didnt work, how could I accomplish this?

    Thank you once again!

    Michael

  5. I figured out the padding wasnt enough in the ul.group for the bullet to fit so I edited the css like so:

    div#sidebar ul.group {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 0 0 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding:0 0 0 15px;
    width: 148px;
    list-style-type:disc
    }

    and the bullets appear out of alignment with the post (closer to the title of the widget)…then I tried adding this:

    div#sidebar ul.group li {
    list-style-position: inside;
    list-style-type:disc
    }

    and the bullets now align with the post title but for some reason a bullet also appears above every Widget Title for each block, here is an example:

    http://f.imagehost.org/0250/bullets.jpg

    Thats the closest I’ve come to getting the bullet in front of the title, I’ve never done much css so its all guess work for me :(

  6. Dont worry, I finally got it to work =),

    heres the code I used for anyone interested in using it as well:

    div#sidebar ul.group li ul {
    list-style-position: inside;
    list-style-type:disc
    }

  7. I think there’s a bug in the “Image Attachment Template” file (image.php) – comments to an attached image don’t appear. (You can try to leave a comment, but it won’t show up on that image attachment page. It does, of course, show up in WordPress admin pages.)

    The code on that page was:

    comments_template();

    But if you change it to:

    comments_template(”, true);

    The comments appear as you’d expect. At least, they did for me.

    Hope this is helpful – love the theme!

  10. Hi LuViWeb,

    it’s not a virus, it’s an old (and unused) function. You can simply remove the lines as I did in the upcoming version 0.9 or uncomment them using // in front of each line.
