Smashing Magazine - we smash you with the information that will make your life easier. really.

Sweetness!!! Free stuff it raining from heaven!!!!

Really nice ! I love the colors. I think a “lite” version without the swirly things would look great too. Although I love those swirly things, I even used them on my own site !

By the way, I noticed something weird. When you google for “smashing magazine”, this site doesn’t appear in the results ! Anybody else experienced this ?

Holy moly… now that’s a beautiful WordPress theme!

Very ugly theme, standard creation of DesignDisease. I’m getting sick of this.

This theme looks awesome. Great christmas gift for the community.

Are you plan to offer other color schemes as well?

Nice work.

I’m with you. I think this theme looks like all the other “wow holy s*** uber-smashing” WP themes. I’ve seen much better ones during my web experience. But thanks for this post anyways, it showed me what “smashing” means for some people ;)

Happy Holidays!
Cheers,

It’s nice, i will use it on my blog

Wow, Smashing has really taken a trip down the drain.

It is a nice theme! Not as nice as babawaba.com will be though! Muhahaha.

I keep getting the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_title_attribute() in /home/omthrus/public_html/seoul/wp-content/themes/dilectio/index.php on line 13

The theme looks great, thanks.

Seems great! But I met the same situation like “Chatmandu” ,the 23rd upper.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_wpuser_comment() in /home/……./wp-content/themes/dilectio/comments.php on line 32

really cool… i love it

I’m having the same problems with comments that others have reported.

Also, the descriptions says, “The data of the section “About this blog” is stored in the file about-blog.php, which is located into the main theme directory (see the screenshot below).” There is no about-blog.php file. That info is editable in sidebar.php

This theme looks terrific but feels like it’s about 99% baked.

Thanks!

I too was impressed with the look of this theme until I found that my comments were getting all screwed up when I tried to make use of it. It looks like another plugin, “Official Comments” by Brett Taylor is also in use here. Bretts “Inner Geek” site seems to be down at the moment, but I believe you can still get hold of the plugin via the wp-plugins database.

I will fix the errors and announce it here. Sorry for all the bugs. :(

I have updated the version so download it again. No comment error.

Cool.Thx!

Thanks for the quick fix… Working like a dream now!

Just downloaded the update. No problems now.

Thanks a lot for a great theme.

I love this theme. My only issue is with the FlickrRSS. The one in in the demo & screenshot is not what is showing up on my page. Any ideas to make the images smaller so I can show the background behind them?

Thanks!

Pretty theme but it kills WP when I try to activate it. I get {url}/wp-admin/themes.php?activated=true in my address bar and then nothing. No admin panel, no site. Just blank. I have to remove the folder from the /themes/ directory to get my site to function. Bummer.

Thank for the early present!

I specially like how functional the layout is — gets everything right up top without wasting space (column width).

Great stuff!

great work! thanks…

Sorry for the last Post!
I didn`t saw that HTML is not allowed. So here is my second try:

It worked fine for now by replacing the class-attribute in the li-Tag!
Just replace the PHP-Code of the class-attribute with Comments (class=Comments)!

Hope this was helpful!

Very very cool template , Look very nice

Awesome Theme! Thank you, SM and ELENA these are a great gift for this holiday. Happy Holidays everybody!

i will use this theme.. very nice

Theme looks very good!

there is a tiny horizontal scroll for 1024px screen resolution. It is a bug I assume.

other than that, looking great!

Thanks,
Mike

I already used it on my site and I translated it into German. So if anyone is interested… feel free to contact me.

@ Elena: Could you make the PSD-Files available so that I can change the “Search”-image to present the word “search” in German?

Another bug: In the search-form there should be written something, but there isn’t!

It`s nice, but not that nice to be worth this post on smashing magazine. This theme is for 2-3 weeks only, after that is boring :)

This is my first post ! Thanks for this amazing worpress theme.

View my website with dilectio theme here

Very nice theme the ornaments design is really looking very nice.

Love it! It’s obvious that a lot of time and thought went into this design. I looks like every detail was thoroughly pondered. The trebuchet font has become popular and I love the way it makes sites look stylized! Beautiful! I can’t wait to use it on one of my sites.

I’ve ported it for Jogger and use it as my theme. Totally awesome.

got it! (check my site eheh)

this is the blogger version guys :)

i started to use this theme. it is very nice

Search Results Problem:

I have a problem similar to Gift Seeker. When I enter a word in the Search box and the search page shows up, when you click on page 2 or 3 or 4, it sends you back to an Index page. You do not get the second, third or fourth page with search results.

Try it. Go to http://www.rosecantine.com and type in the word: apple.

The theme is wonderful, thank you for such a great work. I will use it on of my future projects.

Thank you it is incredible and perfecto!

I tired to use this theme but it messed up my feeds…said there was an extra space somewhere but I could not find it.
When using this theme my feeds were unavaibale, switched to another theme and they were back online. Strange and lame because I really like this theme.

for the search pagination to work the search form must use GET method. :D

You can try to adjust following settings in wp-content\themes\dilectio\style.css:

#bgcontainer – width: 999px
.Header – width: 999px
.CON – width: 969px
.Footer – width: 969px

I quickly tried that on slightly modified theme at http://www.shoethatfits.com, but can’t guarantee that it will not mess up alignment of various elements someplace else.

Thanks.

It’s all about making the right modifications to the default theme. I’m using it for Mode Du Jour, and I’m perfectly happy with it.

To anyone that wants to fix the horizontal bottom scroll bar issue:

Open styles.css, change the width for .Header and .Footer to 975px.

Can anyone please tell me how to make this switch to my old theme when accessed through Internet Explorer 6?
Thanks :)

This will be just perfect for my scrapbooking blog. Beautiful, gorgeous, lovely!

And this theme is NOT xhtml valid ;)

This is a great theme!

the flickr photostream not working..why?

I love this theme, thank you!

Oh… I got it! Here’s how you enable the flickr goodness in the sidebar: download the flickrRSS plugin, install and activate it (duh!), then go to its setup page. There’s a section called HTML Wrapper. Put (line item) in the before field and (close line item) in the after. Save. Reload the blog. Rejoice!

At first testing it’s compatible with WP 2.7.

Only threaded comments are not supported. And the comments are based on the gravatars2 plugin instead of the new native gravatar functions.

404 not found

Guess the theme is dead :(

The link in the post doesn’t work, but it looks like you can find the theme under:

http://www.designdisease.com/download-manager.php?id=6

I haven’t been able to download, perhaps the link not working? Any other link available please?

Excellent theme, I have been using dilectio for 2 years.Amazing :)
