WordPress Theme 1.5 -> Benevolence

I think that you need to take the wp_theme_switcher() part out cause not eveyone has that installed and also need to take out the smart comments pop up thing..
The errors might be a problem with mine though.

Looks good anyway.

Nice theme Theron.

Thanks for making the themes available for all to use as they wish ??

Thanks Bobd314,

I forgot to remove that stuff before packaging it up. I just removed both of those references and uploaded a new zip file. I totally forgot that I was even using the smart comments thing. It never even worked properly for me, so I also removed the plugin from my installation.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback guys!

you must be getting a ton of hits. can’t get to your site. looking forward to seeing it.

It was probably just my ISP doing me a solid…

Good Work Theron

I’d like to use Benevolence, but it would not work properly while my other pre-installed 1.5 themes were working correctly. I tried installing all of your themes and I received this for each:

Warning: main(header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/jeff/public_html/justicerestored/wp-content/themes/benevolence/index.php on line 6

Warning: main(header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/jeff/public_html/justicerestored/wp-content/themes/benevolence/index.php on line 6

Jeff,

I think I may have fixed the problem. For some reason, the way I included the files header.php, sidebar.php and footer.php aren’t working for you. They work for me just fine, nonetheless, I looked at how they are being included in kubrick and saw that it is being done differently, so I changed all my themes from the basic php include statements to the built in functions get_sidebar, get_header and get_footer. Try downloading benevolence again and see if it works for you. Thanks for the feedback, it was very valuable.

Weirdes thing Theron, a couple of issues… 1) I can’t use the theme, it gives me this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_header() in /var/www/nidasa.com/html/blog/wp-content/themes/benevolence/index.php on line 1

This seems to have something to do with the get_… functions. I’m having the same problems with the wp-advanced-stats function.

Additionally, on your blog, I can’t add a comment. For some reason, the comments page stops at “You should change the ” – that’s the last thing. I click on “Comment” and it takes me nowhere. It’s like the bottom half of the page is being blown by something in that comment.

I even switched themes on your site, but no luck.

Anyway, let me know if you can help.

I am getting the same error as nickm.

Help?

Well not the SAME. But similar.

Worldpeace,

So, here’s what I did to get it working:

In index.php of the template, at the top, replace
‘<?php // get_header(); ?>
<?php //get_sidebar(); ?>’

with:

‘<?php
/* Don’t remove this line. */
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>’

Do the same thing with the footer, replace:
‘get_footer();’
with
‘<?php
include (‘footer.php’);
?>’

Theron, your theme is wonderful! I’ve just downloaded it and used it as a base theme for my client’s site (educational use). But I found some errors or problems I’d like to fix.

I have been modifying the sidebar.php by adding extra category names with some php functions like,


<?php wp_list_pages('child_of=0'); ?>


and on the index page, it shows like

category
PAGES
Child one
Child two
Child three

Where the PAGES doesn’t contain any link and it’s not even in the Page list I have nor I have never created such page with titled PAGES. I want to OMIT this PAGES from the list generated, but I don’t know where to edit.

Would you mind if you show me how?

Hi Theron,

I hope you’re still watching this thread. Using your theme, but I have a small problem. I’m trying to create pages within it, but they are coming attached with post-related information…

Take a look at https://tonyfleming.org/wordpress/?page_id=2

Why is there stuff at the top, like a title and posting information? How do I get rid of it? (Same for RSS spiel at bottom of page).

Thanks,
Tony
