SuperSatellite

Grayplicity Wordpress Theme

Grayplicity is the public release version of the theme being used for SuperSatellite.com. Some features and layout areas are watered or slimmed down to support a more generic release. The default setup is a one column, full width (split ~70%/30% content/sidebar) layout.

Grayplicity has been tested with Wordpress 2.3.2-2.6. To ensure full functionality, including usage of the widgetized sidebar, using a version of Wordpress older than 2.0 is not recommended or supported. Besides, you should upgrade to the latest version at the very least for security reasons anyway.

I include, by default, two versions of the theme stylesheet. One (style.css) is just like you would expect to see. The other (style_sm.css) is the one that is defined in the header to be used. It has been compressed down to remove all white space and shorten and combine all elements as much as possible to speed up download. You may find editing style.css easier, and can switch to it in the header.php file if you so desire. Alternatively, you can edit the style.css file and compress it with a tool like CSSTidy, then resave it as style_sm.css to maintain a minimal file size.

If you would like to receive notification of when new releases of Grayplicity come out, I recommend subscribing to the Grayplicity Post Feed . Also, paying attention to my site will reveal certain features that you are likely to see in the next upcoming version of the theme, as I will more than likely test them on my site first (I’m running the most current theme version, plus a couple personal mods). I have no set release cycle, and will simply put out new revisions as I feel necessary.

Features

Built in AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript And XML) commenting (using the Squible theme technique) (delayed)
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) support for multiple plugins
Flexible percentage based widths allow elegant scaling from 800×600 on up
Compressed CSS file that is 31% smaller than the source
Included PNG transparency support for Internet Explorer <7
Rodney Campbell’s Dropcap First Letter plugin built in (no need to install or activate it for it to work)
Gravatar display for comments

Supported Plugins and Addons

The following optional plugins are already accounted for in the theme and stylesheet files within Grayplicity, and are designed to appear seamlessly once installed and activated. These plugins are also fully Wordpress 2.5+ compatible. I am more than happy to entertain suggestions for additional support.

Hi,

I like your theme very much. Thank you for your work.

However, it seems p.dropcap-first:first-letter entry is missing in the CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).

Regards,
Fung

Thanks for the heads up, I will double check that and make the needed corrections this weekend.

Grayplicity…

Grayplicity is a two column widget ready theme. The theme comes with a CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) file that is compressed and used by the site so if you try editing the style.css and nothing changes please make changes in the header to use style.css….

Can you update the theme for Gravatar support?

#22 Michael Fienen on 07.07.08 at 12:02 pm

I will certainly look into that for you and see if it’s something I can fit in to the next version.

#23 Michael Fienen on 07.30.08 at 10:24 pm

As requested, Gravatar support has been added. Funny, that the person who asked for it doesn’t appear to have one, heh.
