:) glad to help…
you’ll probably think that it’s pernickety but it’s “zetroTinet” with a T right in the middle ;)

I translated the theme to pt_BR (Brazilian Portuguese). How can I send the .po and .mo to you?

So where exactly is the download link I mean the download link on the download page says 0.38

I was looking for it as well and i found that the download link is the same as the .38 one.

Nice theme!!

I updated the version number on the download page. Sorry about that.

I just uploaded 0.391 with a translation fix zetrotinet alerted me to. If you’re using an English version of Subtle, don’t worry about downloading this one. If you’re not and working on a translation, you might want to get 0.391.

I need a better Gravatar.

lol

If you’ve downloaded 0.391, you’ll want to redownload the correct one which has the final, tested version of the files. It also includes Leonardo F. de Sales’ Portuguese translation. Sorry about any problems the previous upload might have caused anyone.

Hello,how can i do to make the theme suport the plugin of the ajax comments?

Brilliant… This theme just keeps getting better and better

POEdit has a problem, when first installed it does not recognize extended Ascii caracters like the ones used for accented caracters, etc. I see that you reprosesed the file with POEdit again and now all the accented caracters are gone (showing only garbage) please use the original file i sent you, in case you made changes to the PO file then send me the changes and i´ll resend you the file with the corrections. Either way i´ll send you tonight the instructions on how to configure POEdit. Again kudos for your excellent work.

I am going to step over from Pivot soon. Is there anyone already translating to Dutch? If not, how can I supply a dutch translation?

What a beautiful theme!But where can I find more theme style?

Chantal - I haven’t received a Dutch translation yet. If you’d like to send us one, hop onto the support forums and send me an e-mail via that interface. I’ll get back in touch with more information.

??? - Other than Apart, Subvert and the Default, we haven’t had a lot of time to build publicly released theme styles. Anyone out there have some they’d like to provide to the community?

How can one most easily update the theme? When I tried to just copy over the 3.6 version I lost all my widget layout. Thanks for this theme. It is awesome!

Is there a way to duplicate widgets available the same way we can multiply the Text or RSS Feed widgets? I would need more recent comments and recent posts widgets.

Thanks

We changed the actual widget area names, so that’s why you had problems. We’ll be keeping the names static from this point out.

[...] WordPress支持换肤、插件,易于自定义。本blog使用的就是WordPress,皮肤使用的是GluedIdeas提供的Subtle,所用插件可以点击页面上方导航栏里的Plugins查看。 [...]

Really nice theme.

I just started to use in my blog (in spanish), without any problem.

Good job.

[...] For those of you who may be interested, I built this blog with WordPress using Glued Ideas‘ theme: Subtle v0.93 [...]

2 Questions:

1. in IE 6 my second sidebar slides below the first sidebar, instead of being side-by-side?

Is there a limit to how big the first sidebar should be? How can I fix this?

2. For my bulleted lists, the bullets aren’t showing up in either firefox 2 or IE 6?
See: http://el.hct.ac.ae/infolit/?p=30

Thank you! The theme is exactly what I want - just need it to display properly. Hope you can help!

Thanks for the fantastic theme, Christopher and all those on the Glued Ideas development team!

It is by far, the best theme I have ever seen. I will not be changing any time soon.

Hi Christopher and other GI users :). I absolutely love your GI theme and I’m trying to compile a list of GI users so I can look at their sites and maybe get some ideas for mine. Does such a list exist, can we make one or do I need to carry on scratching around :). Thanks again. ~ Mike

Mike - that’s really a great idea. At the moment we have a forum area for Site Promotion and the sites there are definitely worth checking out. I’d love to see more people put their sites up on the list.

Thanks for the quick answer Christopher… I didn’t know about the site promotion thing…..thanks, that’s good to know. Btw, I’d tried to float the comment box when writing this but the ’submit’ button disappeared below :)

I wonder this theme work with ajax comments:
http://www.mikesmullin.com/2006/06/05/ajax-comments-20/

It’s a plugin that makes comments appear without refreshing the page.
I’ve been looking the code and the problem is that comments code is not a . Instead is used dl,dt and dd. Shouldn’t this be used only with definitions?

Otherwise. Nice theme.

Christopher, from today on I am in your theme fun club :D that is more ener the best theme for wordpress, which I saw!

Nice theme.

Great Theme!

One little problem I noticed is that the style for the archive page widgets is not defined (and so loosing the desired float effect). I fixed it by copying the home widget styles and renaming.

For all the Dutch users of the Subtle theme I have translated the last version of the theme.

You can download it at my website, here is the link:
http://www.koolmees-online.nl/2006/11/30/nederlandse-vertaling-subtle-theme/

Christopher, if you like it let me know and I will forward it to you by email.

i cant use this themes. how i can fix it ? i dont know php much

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/thesaint/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/gluedideas_subtle/functions.php on line 185

I was using the Glued Ideas theme, because it fit my needs to a Tee. Why the past tense?

Because suddenly, something happened and it died on me. By died, I mean that the comment posting simply refused to happen and for some strange reason, it kep going to the post comments page and never updated the comment database.

Now I am not a programmer or a developer, so I have to mention this to you.

Some interesting points (may or may not be related)
1. The comments stopped after I had uploaded a You Tube video embedding
2. I have made no changes in the Glued design except for uploading a personal header, which i don’t think makes a difference
3. I enabled comment subscription plugin, but never got around to testing it for obvious reasons

Hope that helps. I love the concept and would love to use it as my theme. Am even willing to hack up a style for myself through persevered learning. But GI must be stable…

Thanks again for the mind-blowing theme. Love it. and looking for ward to the next.

Happy holidays to the GI team. Call yourself GI Joes, if you wish!

Regards,
Shrikant.

Support OpenID?

I installed it on macuha.com, but the comment post doesn’t work. Can someone here help me?

I did a german translateion for subtle 0.3.9. You can download a Zip file with the po and mo file in it from: http://downloads.ralfunduli.de/subtle39_de.zip
“Previous Articles”,”Continue reading”,”Recent Posts” are still in english. I couldnt find them in the file so I guess you forgot them?

wordpress 2.1 is Released

I also cannot find the download link ?

I have problems with comments. Everything was working fine and suddenly the comment didn’t work. I mean, it worked, but the comment is placed in a different post (not in the current post where the comment should go). I’ve been trying to find what the problem was. Any help with this?

Great theme, congratulations!

I’ll probably use it in my site.

Thanks for providing an incredible template. I am using it for our SEO blog and for some of our clients. Great job on creating one of the best looking and highly functional templates out there.

nice theme! :D

Sweet theme, thanks very much !

[...] He actualizado ajaxSubtle a la nueva versión de Glued Ideas Subtle que aporta nuevas e interesantes mejoras. [...]

i installed this theme, but its not generating a feed. is this something related to the theme or does it need to be fixed somewhere else?

Hello there,

I have just installed the latest version of Subtle on my blog. I am trying to use the plugin Headline Images, which allows me to substitute titles with dynamic generated images, allowing me to use the fonts that cannot be used with normal headlines.

However, not being a web designer, I am having a small problem. I have some knowledge of CSS and PHP but it is very limited unfortunately. Have a look at this site: http://thinkcreation.net/italiano

You can see there is a border around the headlines which is not supposed to be there and I believe it’s because the headline is now a linked image. I have looked at the default.css and at the layout.css files and I can’t find the attribute that I need to change. I see a few that deal with links, but I don’t want to change the colour of the normal text links as well. Could you help me just by telling me where I need to make the change?

Thanks in advance.

Great Template! Thanks for your work.
I have only a wish at the work with WP as a CMS: at child_pages there’s no navigation at the left to the other child pages. This is only at the page with child pages (yes, show_subpages is activ). Is there a possibility to change that?

Great theme! Absolutely this is the best theme i ever use.

But it seems not doing very well when opened in IE. How can I fix this?

Thank you so much for the theme! Would love to see some ajax in it sometime.. :-D

I’m also having a problem with comments showing up on the wrong posts.

Comments appearing under the wrong post has something to do with teh “recent posts” widget. Disabling the widget is the only solution I’ve found so far.

Hi, I have a problem with this theme. When I try write a comment i can’t do it,I press in submit comment button and it appears php code, it doesn’ t appears my comment. Is there any solution?

Thanks
Greetings

Cristobal - I’ve not seen this problem. Are you using any plugins that might be causing this behavior?

Well, I’ve downloaded the package of this web and i haven’t got any problem
Thanks for all :-)
