Semiologic theme and CMS, v.2.3

By
2

In resources — The Semiologic theme and CMS is now v.2.3.

Changes include:

  • Print link
  • CSS tweaks
  • Plugin updates
  • New 3rd party plugin integration:
    • Blogtimes, with and without icons
    • Touched
    • Live Comment Preview
    • Custom Query String
    • Countdown
    • Gravatar
  • The resulting new captions

Note that the plugins are now all dispatched in various folders. Thus, you'll likely want to delete stray files before upgrading.

Update — How to upgrade from a past version of the theme:

Case 1: You did little or no customization:

  • Upload the contents of the zip's themes/ folder into your wp-content/themes/ folder
  • Temporarily disable all of the plugins that I'm distributing and delete all said plugin files (the files begin with sem-) to avoid name conflicts
  • Upload the contents of the zip's plugins/ folder into your wp-content/plugins/ folder and reactivate plugins as relevant

Case 2: You customized the captions and the nav menus:

  • Update your sem-theme-config.php to reflect the new one and put it into the wp-content/plugins/sem-theme/ folder.

Case 3: You customized the sidebar:

  • Update your sidebar.php file to reflect the new one and put it into the wp-content/themes/semiologic/ folder.

Case 4: You customized the skin:

  • Ignore the new CSS files

Case 5: You customized something else:

  • Then you know what you're doing

Hi, Denis, thanks for this great theme.

I wonder if you could tell me how to upgrade an earlier version of Semiologic Theme, without losing customization changes.

2) Is the "notify me of followups" a plugin or part of the theme? And the "subscribe without comment" option?

1. I've updated the post with more detailed upgrade instructions.

2. Both come from the subscribe to comments plugin
