This is the part of the thread where I /facepalm and say ‘of course.’

The two issues are as follows

REQUIRED: This theme doesn’t seem to display tags. Modify it to display tags in appropriate locations.

REQUIRED: Could not find wp_link_pages in the PHP files. The theme must use wp_link_pages() to provide for multi-page posts.

The second is easily fixable, but the theme ‘not displaying tags’ makes me think that I need to have tags appear in connection with my posts which I’d prefer not to do.

I suppose, if that were the issue, I could simply add them with a note in the “read me” saying the theme wasn’t designed with tags in mind.

Fantastic.

The text is large, but I was actually modeling it after the size I prefer to read longer form articles on other sights. Generally, I am forced to use readability in order to do that. Twelve and even Ten point typefaces are certainly readable in print, but there is something about a screen which seems to demand larger text to my eye. I am not sure why.

I do think, however, a slightly smaller sans-serif would probably play well with the layout, but I also wanted to use a browser ‘safe’ typeface so it could remain open source and none of the standard san-serifs are ever remotely palatable to me.

To be honest, resolved more meant “resigned” to not have the theme in the official repository, but that’s helpful. It gives me a better context to figure out what I might be missing. Thanks.

You’ll want to add that bit to your css stylesheet.

As for plugins it really depends on what you are looking to do. The plugins repository is pretty good for just browsing.

I happen to know of one currently in development. It doesn’t allow for outside comments, but great as an alternative to footnotes. When something is ready to be released, I’ll post a link to it here.

also, the “site map” header is hard to read, particularly the “m” in map. Unbolding it should help.

When you click on pages that don’t require a scrolling, the page shifts slightly to the left. It’s a common problem since most modern browsers will eliminate the scroll bar when it isn’t need. Add this code to force a the scroll bar there to prevent the slight shift:

html {
    overflow-y: scroll;
    margin: 28px;
}

the marketing, promotion, and business plan sections should all be the same height. In other words, each “learn more” should be aligned. Sharp looking, though.

sounds to me like the style.css and index.php which are basically the blood and guts of the theme.

Turns out in the conversion over from movable type nobody ever cleaned up the old directories.

Don’t I feel like an idiot now.

you can view all your template files at under the “design” menu in the the back office (where you login)

Brilliant. Thanks.
