hMallow 2 A simpler theme for Habari

Updating for 0.7 final  18 Comments

20 July, 2010 · Tagged: , , , and

Currently trying to get hMallow 2 ready for the final version of Habari 0.7.

To that end, I've implemented Areas in the sidebar for plugins to use and in doing so removed all my conditional plugin support. And tried to tidy the look of the sidebar as best i can.

For those not happy with this I've kept the old sidebar file as sidebarold.php so you can extract any code you might need for supporting these other plugins.

Also on permalink pages I've made the date bold under the post title just so its a little clearer.

Still to-do

  • Customise the more plugin block files
  • Dynamically scale width ala this popular CSS system.
  • Edit comment links when logged in
  • Look at quick Admin links for logged in user - similar function to Hadminstrip plugin (thnx : Stanley FONG)
  • Give instructions how to change height of header and footer and how to place an image into header (thnx : Stanley FONG)
  • Keep it pretty
  • Make it prettier : =D
  • Keep it simple
  • Make it simpler : :/
  • Try to keep it valid CSS and HTML

Give me more suggestions in the comments.

Quite short ones so far. Growing (track changes):

  • Ideas from Google groups, Habari forum, IRC and my mind!
  • Fix comments (only Google Chrome?) : seems to work now anyway :/
  • Fix login form on home : nicer ✔
  • Why does Blogroll list only show when logged in? Still no idea. Fixed: Michaeltwofish on irc - go into the groups page for the anonymous group and make sure read access is ticked for blogroll
  • Add 'Tweet This' : added ✔
  • No need for comment number in comments list : removed ✔
  • Support as many plugins as I can, to that end:
    tagcloud
    fluffytag
    blogroll
    deliciousfeed
    audioscrobbler
    lastrecent
    flickrfeed
    twitter
    brightkite
    gravatar
    twitter_avatar
    colophon ✔ : just need to fix text colour
    disqus? × : nope, not yet as plugin is not ready
    popular_posts
    relatedtags
    postwordcount
  • Make a 404 page, 404.php : done
  • Make an Archive page, archive.php : don't think this is possible ×
  • Investigate Area support (thnx : Ringmaster) Just updated to support this ✔
  • Bottom needs padding, note shadow cropped on the highlight para below - breaks on multiple post pages
  • Look at quick Admin links for logged in user - similar function to Hadminstrip plugin (thnx : Stanley FONG)
  • Give instructions how to change height of header and footer and how to place an image into header (thnx : Stanley FONG)
  • Maybe force footer to foot of window? Not sure I can get this working satisfactorily.
  • Edit comment links when logged in
  • Add 'About' in side bar as now in r3944 by rbowen : ?php Options::out('about'); ?
  • Use standard commentform calls ✔ done
  • Find a stick post plugin and implement
  • Find an asides plugin or just use tags to flag the asides post and style them.
  • Keep it pretty
  • Make it prettier : =D
  • Keep it simple
  • Make it simpler : :/
  • Not related directly to hMallow 2: Fix Hadminstrip plugin tag line - "$tagcount=DB::get_value('SELECT count(id) FROM {tags}');"
    FIXED on IRC thanks to - rick_c: "$tagscount = Tags::count_total();"

Feel free to suggest more in the comments section.
