Plans…

Wed 24, May 2006 17:21:33

Today I got a big scare… iRui.ac was down and for a moment there it looked like I had lost all my files! I contacted the hosting company, but they were already on top of it. Apparently the server disk was failing, and they were already arranging a replacement one – it seems that everything is back to normal.
Anyway, updates have been non-existing (as usual), due to my lack of time (also as usual :)). But I do have plans to update a few things:

  • Fix the problem with the Gallery2 link on vSlider (a few people complained about this, and I already posted a solution, but I want to make it part of the theme anyway…)
  • Maybe add support for Widgets. I personally don’t feel like I need them, but they are becoming really popular, and it doesn’t seem to be very difficult to add Widget support on the vSlider sidebar.
  • Try (and I emphasize “try!“) to have KBurnalizer working properly on Safari. No offense to Mac users, but somehow Safari always seems to misbehave – why can’t everybody just use Firefox? ;)
  • I want to take a look into internationalization support for vSlider. I’ve seen really a lot of non-English site out there using vSlider, so it might be a good idea to make it easier for them. If I do this, then I will kindly ask for translations from you guys!

That’s about it… stay tuned.

Great news Rui. I’m looking forward, especially the internalization support.

Great news indeed. I’m glad to see you still have passion for vSlider. Can you please answer a question… Is there a file(s) in vSlider2 that calls for 1×1.gif?

Hi Rui! Can’t wait for new improvements ;) Maybe you could also add some features I would like - like seperate Trackback Comments. One more feature to open/close the tags of an blog entry and so on ;) THX for your great vSlider theme.

Really appreciate it if you could add widget support for VSlider. I know you don’t feel a desperate need for it yourself, but those that can’t rearrange the sidebar by code (like myself) would really appreciate it.

Me again Rui, I don’t suppose you have a psd file for the image headers do you???

Rui,

When you upgrade to Wordpress 2.0.3 can you make a post if you have any issues or not?

I found the freeware tool BorderMaker at http://docsdb.semantica.nl/bordermaker/

It’s perfect for creating the nice round borders and texts at the header images.

Hey Rui,

So those pages u sent me worked… I would love to see a release of the fix, so I can have my sites working on safari…. I think you got it, and I am ready to test anything else u need.

Also, if you need help with Portuguese Brazilian internationalization… let me know, it will be helpful, just in time for us to win the worldcup!!!

best,
dr3w
..anxiously waiting for the safari/mac fix!

Jeremy,
yes the 1×1 file is used by a script (pngfix.js) included in vSlider to fix transparency problems in PNGs when using IE. But I just realized that I actually don’t include it with the theme itself :)
Well, if you need it, you can download it from this site… just use this link: http://irui.ac/1×1.gif

Care to comment?
