Fresh & Clean Author By-Line Slider

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there,

    With my blog expanding in writers as well as content, I was wandering whether the following two features are in development for the Fresh & Clean theme:

    Author by-line: I have read around the forum that there is no author by-line for the theme but was wandering if staff/tech folks could code it in so its a feature thats available? I rather not change themes and have to re-do some of the artwork I have on there.

    Slider: Fresh & Clean has a featured image on the front page. I was wandering if there is a way to make this an automatic slider, to hold more than 1 post but not require to push buttons to navigate. Something like this http://oxygendemo.wordpress.com/ except of course, to work with the theme.

    These are features I just was looking for and was wandering if they are in development. The Author by-line is a must otherwise it will be a really pain when my various authors want to save their articles in pdf format when they want to showcase their work.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    This is an issue for Themes Staff and it’s the reason I stoped using the Fresh and Clean theme. I have flagged this thread so it will be moved to the Themes Forum for their response.

    P.S. See here > Author and profile displayed or not

    I did indeed see that post. I find it weird that this would be a WPExplorer theme with no author by-line. Unless it got removed when they were coding it for wordpress.com? Also, the original theme did come with an automatic slider called a nivo slider. Its built as an add-on to the theme.

    Hope the staff can help get me these two features as it would be totally awesome to have.

    Out of curiosity; can people request themes to be added to the line up? There are some that would be invaluable additions to the theme showcase.

    Thank you for that! I really hope the above features can be achieved. Otherwise I will be spending alot of time again with photoshop…

    I sincerely doubt that Staff will edit the templates of themes where the designer did not include author bylines and include them in the adapted wordpress.com theme versions, but I do have my fingers crossed for you.

    thank you! I really hope it works out. Mine’s a growing site so I rather not move from the wordpress.com platform. Unless that becomes a final resort…

    I assume that the movement of stats is still something that isn’t available right?

    re: moving stats – correct

    Re: fussing over this author name display bit
    I always take the path of least resistance. :) I changed themes to one that does display author bylines and author profiles as well.

    I wouldn’t fuss with it if it wasn’t required. Currently I run the space by myself and adapting to a new theme, getting all the images to work with that theme’s specs, is a painful process.

    It be great if I could just leave everything the way it is haha.
