    Getting closer to the end for Nuovo

    So it’s been a while since I gave an update for Nuovo, but here we go. Since the last update, the theme has gotten even closer to being included in the WordPress theme directory. It’s to the point that I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel for the theme, which…

    Almost done with the latest round of edits

    So it’s been a while since I’ve gotten around to writing an update for how the Nuovo theme edits are going, so here we go. As things stand now, things are actually moving along well.

    So once again with Nuovo there is good news and there is bad news. The good news is that Nuovo underwent another review by one of the WordPress Theme reviewers last week and the reviewer did a very good and thorough job in review my mistakes. The bad news is that those mistakes, though not…

After figuring out how to get the current time from WordPress and then subtracting that from the time of the post to figure out how long it’s been published and…

    Continuing the path toward finish Giornalismo

    Another week gone by and another item checked off the list for the Giornalismo theme. This week I finished off the advertisement feature for the theme, which actually went much easier than I thought it would. After creating the advertisement custom post type last week, I was able to add spots to add advertisements in…

    Road block for Nuovo

    ,

    So Nuovo was almost home free. After getting initial approval by the first reviewer, the thought was that the second and final round would be quick and painless and that it would be put up on the WordPress Theme directory relatively soon. Except that the second review brought up a few more issues that have…
