Request: WP-Andreas09
-
I’d also like to see the categories to be able to display a third level if possible. It appears that the theme will only do two levels currently.
-
This theme generates a lot of feedback, which proves it’s a very good one.
I’m so thankful it’s been made available, as it is it’s already great -
drmike: Good point, I’ll keep that in mind for the next version and for future themes. I never use more than two levels, but of course the theme should support three levels if it is really used.
wrnc: Thanks! I have got your e-mail, and will look at your suggestions soon unless Ainslie has already done it.
Any suggestions for new colors?

grey, brown but in fact I think it’d be cool if existing colors could have alternates: dark, light, plain color (without the current stripes or “woodlike” texture)
-
Andrea, please note that it appears your preview links to OSWD.org are broken from your site.
Is it me or is the post’s author’s name missing as well? Just noticed that.
Thanks,

The post author is missing. Sorry. I built the theme originally for my site and there didn’t seem much point adding it, but obviously it may be useful on a multi-blogger site.
All these things can be added when I and Andreas get time. I am sure that WP-Andreas09 V2 would be well accepted so it will be worth doing.
Thanks for all of your feedback.

What are the chances of getting an updated version added here to replace the current version of this theme? Have any of the other themes been updated since they were added?
And maybe more interesting, would anyone be interested of seeing the WP theme version of my andreas06 template added here? You can see original design in a live demo on http://andreasviklund.com/templates/ (a bit down on the page). Please note that that is an XHTML/CSS template only and not a WP theme.
I’m asking that because the WP theme version by Ainslie is soon ready for release, and if people here would be interested in it I guess it would be a good idea to ask for feedback and make all wanted changes BEFORE it is suggested for this site.
-
I am using WordPress.com, and my theme is WP-Andreas09 1.5. For my categories widget, my customized name and the amount of entries per category are not showing up when it is in either the right or left column.
-
I use WP-Andreas09 (on broodsphilosophy.wordpress.com), and tried to add <img> tags to the text widgets on the sides, but seems that because of the CSS one can’t do that in this theme ? All I got was just the alt text. Is it possible to fix this theme (if this is a bug).
(for now I added those pictures through links sections, where it seems to work ok) -
I don’t really know how the widgets work since that is a WordPress.com feature and not built into the original theme. And neither I or Ainslie can change anything in the WordPress.com adoption of the theme. You need to use the feedback form in your admin to request changes if you find bugs in the theme.
However, from what I can tell, images should actually work. I haven’t tested it myself, but I can’t remember that there is any block for images in the sidebars. If you can see the alt text, it shouldn’t be any CSS error.
-
There is nothing in the original css that would hide an image as Andreas has said.
I tried to log in to give it a try but it seems I can’t right now :-(
As Andreas said the sidebar widget is a later addition that we have no control over.
I’ll check it out when I can get logged in.
-
Sorry, it seems the problem was connected not with images, but with some specific code I tried to paste (taken from the creativecommons). I tried to add images by myself, and it works fine.
-
I really hope WP-Andreas 0.9 1.6 (or whatever upgraded version) will be available soon. The new features prepared by Ainslie do improve an already great theme.
-
WP-Andreas09 is now upgraded to version 2.0, with full support for Widgets, 14 different background images (now with matching colored links!), localization support and best of all: Support for dynamic subpage menus. Bugs have been fixed, visual adjustments have been made and Ainslie has listened to requests from both wordpress.com bloggers and users with own hosting. Check out the new version at Ainslie’s theme development site http://dev.webgazette.co.uk/ (note: may be offline at times) and leave a comment. If you like what you see and would want to use it on WordPress.com too, send a feedback note with a request that WP-Andreas09 is updated to the new 2.0 version.
(hey, one of the color options is pink! Yay!) =)

Ainslie, Andreas: I’m a big fan.
I’m having a problem with WP-Andreas 09 1.5 displaying on Internet Explorer, and I want to switch to the new version and go over to BlueHost where I can exploit the features (I’m not an expert or a constant user).
Is there any way I can have a look at some sites that are using WP-Andreas 09 v. 2.0 ?
Is there any way I can track ’em down to look at?
Do you think I’ll have the same problems with IE users viewing my site and wondering what they’re looking at?
When ever you get a chance. You’re doing great work.
(I’ll be checking back every 3 or 4 minutes . . . ) -
No problem with WP Andreas09 on Internet Explorer as of this point.
But haven’t checked with IE on the old Mac OS9, which is prevalent where I work (a public school in NYC).
