Ok so I approached it all wrong last time, I guess you have to learn some how right?
Now I have replaced the translated strings with default wordpress ones, so it should all work nicely.
You can check it out on the garland test blog here. Its running the default lt_LT translation file.
Thanks!!
Since switching from Garland to Garland Revisited I’ve noticed that *every page* on my blog is blue for a moment, then it switch colors to the colors that I’ve defined.
Using Firebug for Firefox I can see that every time a page loads, the page myblog.com/?garland_css=1 is called. If it is possible, would you consider adding some kind of caching to this css file?
I think the code is in file css.php, in garland_css_colors_css().
Since the old Garland theme didn’t have this behaviour, I hope that it is possible to fix this issue.
Thanks!
Ive looked into this, never noticed it before. It seems to be a Internet Explorer only issue, Firefox is not affected.
It is the background images that actually flash, because they are dynamic php created IE will not cache them, firefox has no issue with this.
I will look further into it.
I’m using Firefox. It seems to be a cache issue. The server sends “No cache” to the browser – which cause the browser to always get a new copy. This was not a issue in the old Garland theme, so it might be something that you’ve added (or removed?).
I’ve tracked down the problem. I think that there is a problem with the webserver. I’ve contacted the webhotel and they are looking into it.
I’ve now tested the theme and almost all texts are automatically translated. Fantastic! 🙂
I found some texts in commens.php that are not translated/hardcoded. They should be:
_e(‘Mail (will not be published)’);
and
_e(‘(required)’);
I’ll tell you if I find anything else.
Thanks again!
Ive changed them, thx for spotting 🙂
Is the other problem fixed now?
Not yet. But I think there is a problem with the webserver. I’ll get back to you if it isn’t 🙂
I have fixed the flashing images error!!!!
Check out the test blog : garland.pross.org.uk
It loads the same in IE as well as FF 🙂
It was a headers problem, IE would not cache the images.
here is a quick fix, i will update the theme soon…
open garland-image.php find these lines:
header("Vary: Accept-Encoding"); // Handle proxies
header("Expires: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s", time() + 864000) . " GMT"); // 10 days
replace those lines with:
$interval = 86400;$now = time();
$pretty_lmtime = gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', $now) . ' GMT';
$pretty_extime = gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', $now + $interval) . 'GMT';
// Backwards Compatibility for HTTP/1.0 clients
header("Last Modified: $pretty_lmtime");
header("Expires: $pretty_extime");
// HTTP/1.1 support
header("Cache-Control: public,max-age=$interval");
Nice. Thanks!
http://garland.pross.org.uk/?garland_css=1 seems to be loaded on every page view. Maby this can also be improved?
added the same cache code to css.php but with interval of 3600 (1 hour) and it works.
Didn’t work for me. But my blog is in a subdirectory, and on every pageview there are two requests. The first request goes to
http://www.domain.com/subdir?garland_css=1
which redirects to
http://www.domain.com/subdir/?garland_css=1
Maby if there were no redirect your solution would work.
ok, functions.php line 257 chage it to:
[php] echo ‘@import url(‘ . get_bloginfo(‘wpurl’) . ‘/?garland_css=1);’;[/php]
try that.
Thanks! No more redirect. You should be able to make that change in your plugin. According to http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_bloginfo
“Note that directory URLs are missing trailing slashes. “
It didn’t solve the cache problem though. I have to investigate futher. I still think that there is a problem with the webserver. I’ve checked http://garland.pross.org.uk and there it is working… Strange.
Can you give me a link so i can see whats happening?
Sorry. It’s not public. But there is a problem with the webserver. Not your theme.
I would recommend you to run the Page Speed Firefox extension by Google. They have several recommendations on how to improve your theme:
http://code.google.com/intl/en-US/speed/page-speed/
The test page has a new ‘test’ version now, it scores much better with the page-speed plugin.
Nice! Will you release a new version soon?
yes, couple of days needed first though.
latest has been released early due to a bug, suggest you upgrade, next version will support 2.9 and post image thumbnails, its already running on the test blog.
Thanks! You’re fast! I’ve installed the update and everything is working very good. I’ll try the new image in the header soon.
Looking forward to post image thumbnails!
The “next” link in single.php isn’t right aligned. I’ve tried this in FF, IE and Chrome. I’m using the latest version.

It was commented out in the stylesheet!
open style.css and find
/*
.alignleft {
float: left;
}
.alignright {
float: right;
}
*/
replace with
.alignleft {
float: left;
}
.alignright {
float: right;
}
