new Theme - Stop-Abruzzi

Hey, I've just put the finishing touches to a theme for one of my ZP galleries, and I thought I might as well share it.

The website runs wordpress and K2, and I wanted to integrate the ZP gallery into the K2 theme. So, I used StopK2 to get some ideas and merged it with the standard StopDesign port and Ben Spicer's StoppedDesign theme to get Stop-Abruzzi.

It's currently live at http://1stmarplebradshawcubs.org.uk/zp/ if anyone wants a look.

All the colouring is taken from the the K2 style, so it "should" be compatible with any K2 install.

Let me know what you think.

Only tested on wp2.1, zp1.0.7, k2 0.95 RC1 - doesn't utilize sub-albums yet.

No prizes, but maybe a knowing nod, if anyone gets where the name comes from.

    Humm ... just about the "contest" for the name ...
    maybe it comes from a tv show ?

    Ahh, that's why the name was familiar!

    As the theme is intended to integrate with K2, I took a quick gander at the K2 wikipedia page:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K2

    and the first name which caught my eye was the Abruzzi Spur :)

    In case anyone is interested, I've updated this theme to better integrate it with Wordpress by using a wordpress plugin I've created to move the javascript into the `` where it belongs.

    Nice theme but noticed that It doesn't show anything on the IE7. Works only on Firefox.
  • BigAl Member
    Hmmmm, will have to look in to that. Not tested it at all on IE as am mainly a Mac user now, and use firefox when on winxp.

    It'll be some small goof on my part, and I've missed out a small, but crucial line of code somewhere, as both the wordpress theme K2 and the stopdesign theme for zenphoto work on IE 7.
  • BigAl Member
    Yeah, it's definately a problem with the zenphoto css that IE7 doesn't like.

    Not so hot on the who css hacks thing. Would muchly appreciate it if someone could take a look at the css and give me a pointer as to what the problem might be.

    Edit - I've tracked it down to IE7 not liking position:relative on the very first element in my css file. bloody stupid fecking IE :(

    Edit 2 - turns out that position: relative on the main body of the gallery wasn't playing nicely with the clear:both on the footer. Now sorted. However there are display issues on the image page which I'll get round to looking at later today.

    On the off chance anybody is interested, I've updated this theme.

    I've sorted out the display issues wit IE7 on the individual image pages, and I've removed the need for a wordpress plugin to integrate the theme into wordpress. I've moved the code which was in the plugin into the ZP theme files, and it works just as well.

    Wonderful! I'm using Mistylook on my site, and thought that this might be close enough that I could tweak it to at least somewhat match the rest of the site, but there was no need! I installed it, activated it, and it just worked. ^_^ Thankyou so much, you've saved me some huge headaches. *cheers*

    Glad I could help, and pleased to hear that it's compatible with at least one other WP theme :)
