How to upgrade your WordPress Theme for WP 2.3?

I upgraded most of my well loved themes to get on to sure they work with the latest WordPress release 2.3.

But there are public who have customized the theme so much, that they do not want to upgrade their theme with my latest version.

Dredge up to Kindness / Despise Links

Ever wondered how to define styles for Hyperlinks ?

Water supply. There are four different selectors for a hyperlink.

You would normally see this at the top of the stylesheet.

a:link {text-embellishment:not any;affect:#ff0000}
a:visited {text-embellishment:not any;affect:#0000ff;}
a:hover {text-embellishment:underline;}
a:active {text-embellishment:underline;}

The first outline defines that normal unvisited links will have ‘no underline’, and will look ‘red’ in affect.
The following outline says as a link is already visited by the user, it must spectacle in ‘blue’ affect with ‘no underline’.
The third outline says if the user is moving the mouse finished this link, trade show an underline.
The fourth one says to do the same thing as the hover, as the user clicks on it. ‘active’ depicts that fraction of following that the user really clicks on the link.

In order for these definitions to work as intended in most browsers, they have to be in the same order as we have defined here. Dredge up ‘LoVe’ must come before ‘HAte’ This shortcut I found it first on the book ‘Web Standards Solutions’ by Dan Cederholm.

Working with Pages in WordPress

WordPress allows you to make ‘Pages’ surrounded by the wordpress blog. Anytime you want to write something like an about page / a contact page / an shape up page, you would use this feature. Most of our themes displays a list of pages as navigational elements at the top. We use thewp_list_pages() method, so any new page you make, will automatically spectacle in that navigation. I want to present a few of the most common questions public question, as they use one of our themes.

  1. How to hide certain pages starting the navigation ?
  2. How to spectacle the pages in a different order ?
  3. Why is my child page, is not plotted in the navigation ? etc.
