The integration of Gallery 2 (http://gallery.menalto.com/) within WordPress 2 (http://wordpress.org/) is a success! I had some hints and useful files from the WPG2 wiki. I was missing a nice theme for gallery in order to fit well with the website’s original design (Connections Reloaded: the only compatible version with WP2).

Ajay, I edited with Notepad and had the same problem. At first I thought it had something to do with the way I transfer files. But if I transfer comments.php unedited it goes fine.
If I make one single change in notepad (just change Responses into Reesponses, for example), save and ftp, then I get the parse error.
Maybe you can try to reproduce the error in a test environment following the actions I take?
You could probably see the site fine because I was/am using the unedited English comments.php
I’m still seeing your site correctly with no parse error.
I can’t seem to figure out why that is happening.
Are you transferring the php files as ASCII ??
Yes, I’m transferring them as ASCII
I have placed the edited comments.php back, so now you should see it broken “in action” on the site as soon as you navigate to a permalink.
I have to go for a couple of hours. Thanks for looking into it for me.
Ajay, I was thinking, maybe you could email me the comments.php rather than me using the version packaged in the download, to see if that makes a difference.
Ajay, thanks again for your help. I was able to get an adequate formatting for the links list by editing the sidebar as you suggested.
@w8in, have mailed you the theme. If it gives you an error moment you edit, send my the comments.php that you are modifying and reuploading to your server.
@Fr. Daniel, great
Ajay,
How can I easily change the image of the connections reloaded theme? Notice that, when viewing the image in the img folder, the “tunnel” image has a frame around it therefore it’s not a simple replacement of that image with the right pixels. Any open sourced application you would recommend to put my image into that frame?
Two good applications. One is the GIMP and the other one is PhotoFiltre.
I’m planning to release a version of the header when I release v2.0.
There is still time for that however, as my day job has put major time constraints on other development (can’t complain, as it pays me more!).
Awesome theme! But I never liked the color scheme so I created my own. Here’s a screenshot if yer interested.

Ajay, thanks for all the information you offer here about Connections Reloaded. It did help me fixing my knew WordPress blog and your version of Connections Reloaded that I’m using. It’s great. I succed to integrate a random header Image. And it’s wordkimg very good.
I still working on falbum and I succed to integrate it in Connections Reloaded v1.2.1.
The problem is that I can’t fix falbum Recent Photos on the sidebar. See what I get :
http://www.fikra.kitab.nl/
Can you tell me who th do it ?
thanks
sami
I can see it perfectly in IE, though there is a problem with Firefox, which I can’t seem to figure out.
I am assuming that it is because you have a
divwithin theliI suggest removing the
ulandlienclosing thediv.If you want a similar style then try using creating a class
falbum-recentwith the same properties of#sidebar uland/or#sidebar ul liinstyle.cssHallo Ajay,
I removed li and ul then added :
- this code to connections-reloaded/style.css:
.sb_flickr {
height: 180px;
}
- and this one to the the falbum.css.php:
.sb_flickr img
{
border: 1px solid #ccc;
padding: 5px;
}
.sb_flickr {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.falbum-recent {
height: 180px;
}
I get what I want (two columns of recent photos.) only in Opera. But :
- IE shows only 1 column.
- problem with Firefox.
- don’t get the background-color and the sidenav_bottom.jpg.
It would be easier to add them all into
style.cssYou could have kept the
h2as before, only removed theulandli.Try:
.falbum-recent {
background: url(img/sidenav_bottom.jpg) #F3F6ED no-repeat bottom;
border: #E1D6C6 1px solid;
margin-top: 15px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
}
I’m getting the following message at the end of a protected post that has comments: “This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.” I have not seen this before and don’t understand why the comments aren’t showing up. Am I missing something?
Your post is protected with a password. Until the password is entered it won’t be displayed.
Edit your post to remove the password.
Ajay, I understand about the protected post. However, even after entering the password to view the post, the message is still showing up. This wasn’t previously a problem and I wonder if it might have something to do with the theme (or something I did to the theme).
Try checking this out with the default theme, or check it out on another browser, or get someone else to check it out for you.
It could be a cookie / browser issue.
I’ve checked this in Firefox and IE and have the same problem in both. I switched to the WP default theme and did not have the problem. I thought that I might have flubbed comments.php so I put in a clean copy from the theme download but the problem is still occurring.
Fr Daniel,
I came across this with few other themes, don’t know why. My workaround is that after entering your pwd, click enter if your post doesn’t show trying clicking the post title. I think this is sort of refreshing that post and it will show in most cases. I think this is a cookie issue because you’ll find that next few times you won’t need to enter any password to see pwd protected posts unless you have cookies cleared.
sfong, thanks for your help. However, the problem I’m having isn’t that the post is not visible. I CAN view the POST but the COMMENTS that are on the post do NOT show up. Instead, I get the message “This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments. When I switch to a different theme, the comments are visible. I’ve cleared caches and cookies, used different browsers, etc. and that does not seem to be the issue.
Ajay,
I’m currently using your theme and checking to add some functionality (mainly WPG2) but I noticed that the archives page was not being picked up. It showed a listing of the “archives” directory and nothing else.
http://www.eduo.info/
http://www.eduo.info/archives/
The page was created as Name: Archives/Template: Archives/slug: archives but wasn’t being picked up. It was weird because others are being picked up correctly.
After some troubleshooting I figured it out. I used to have a MT installation which went bust, but static files still stayed. The rewrite rules were not being enforced because an archives.html file and archives/ directory still existed.
I moved archives.html into archives/ and then renamed archives/ to old-archives/ so the rewrite rules worked.
I know it’s not directly related to your theme but I wanted to share it because others might stumble upon this when creating the archives page. So I’m sharing it. It’s also good because now I know I still have those archived posts there and I can expand the archives template to include the listing of old-archives
http://www.eduo.info/old-archives/
Thanks again for the sweet theme. Have you talked with Patricia to join efforts? I know she’s been considering a new version for some time.
No I haven’t spoken to Patricia to join efforts. Anyway I think she already is working with someone else, while I’m pretty much of lone coder
I will see what I can do about WPG2. Maybe test it out on my Demo Blog and/or add it to the v2.0 if successful.
Hallo Ajay,
I can’t get the links page to work (http://www.kitab.nl/links/), I get the 404 page.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
sami
Did you create the links page in your WP-Admin?
If so update your Permalinks.
How can I creat a links page ?
Write ... PagesUnder Page Template select Links
Thank you Ajay, I did it. It was so simpel; but I did no know it. I was stupid.
Sorry Ajay but I get a problem when trying to instal an wp-email. So I decied to desinstal it when I could no longer have acces to the index of the site. All the other pages work good (expl : contact or links) except with the index kitab.nl where I get an 500 page error. I think that I did someting with my .htaccess file.
Could you please help me.
Thanks
sami
Sami please contact the author of wp-email regarding this.
If you feel it is a problem with .htaccess, backup or rename it and create a new .htaccess.
Please note that this page is exclusively for Connections Reloaded. For other queries you may contact me directly or better still post in the WordPress Forums.
I really like this theme. You did a great job. Does it come in 3 column layout?
Not yet. Have plans for one.
Will soon update the roadmap.
You can subscribe to the posts on connections reloaded to keep in touch with updates.
I’m Sorry Ajay for the post. You’re right. And thanks for your help.
Sounds good! I will keep an eye out.
no “theme toolkit” inside ?
I am considering the toolkit for v2 of the theme.
Hi Ajay, Great theme but I cant seem to get it to work. When i load it all I get when I visit my blog is the text of my blog with no formatting etc. I have created the required pages but still to no avail. I have reinstated the old conections theme in the meantime. Just wondering if you could point out where the problem might be? I have not seem anyone else in your comments with the same problem.
Thanks in advacen.Ed
Hi Edmund,
It’s hard to see what exactly is the problem without my theme activated.
Anyway, I kind of understand that the theme doesn’t display, simply text. This would happen if you haven’t uploaded the files properly or if you have a cache problem.
Try to check your theme on another browser or better still on someone else’s computer.
If you are game activate my theme and let me know so that I can check it out.
Hi Edmund,
You could be experiencing the same problem I had before, not surprising when people are trying “connections” first then “connections reloaded” and tried to add identifiers to latest versions later. You may have renamed the “connections reloaded” theme folder with a name with space. Apache servers don’t like space in name.
Sfong,
Thanks, that did it. Deleted folder, and uploaded it again making sure that no space in folder anme and all is well. Thanks to both you and Ajay. Great Theme mod.
Cheers
Ed
Hi Ajay,
Sorry about this, but this is my first attempt at making adjustments to wp themes. I am using feedburner to track subscriptions. The address is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogs/edsblog
I looked in the sidebar and was not sure where or what to change to make the image links for the various readers such as rojo etc pick up the feedburner link rather than the blogs rss2 feed.
I’d appreciate any pointers if thats ok?
Cheers
Edmund
No problem, just replace
<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>with your feed url above.Mate, you are a wizard. Thanks very much for your time.
Cheers
Edmund
Your welcome. Glad to be of help.
I can’t seem to get my archives links (or ay in the topnav) to work properly. I honestly don’t know what to do from here. I’m still new at the whole thing.
Hi Jenna, please read the install instructions.
Additionally, please post all support requests in the forum.
How do I get rid of the “Associates” or who links to me box?
i really appreciate this version of connections. i have figured much out with regard to customization, but the two things i would like to remove are the About the Site: & the Calendar.
I can see the Calendar in the Sidebar file, but i don’t see the About the Site stuff. Can you let me know how to remove it? I see “Currently Browsing” above the Calendar, but that’s not About the Site, so I am confused.
hello i would like to put adsense code at the top left (just after the “white main template”) , can i get some help plz .. what file i need to edit?
thx lots in advance
