iStef.info V4 Theme

iStef.info V4 Theme

First up, this site is completely in Japanese (I think?), so bear with me in sorting out the theme. Regardless of the site’s language, the theme itself appears completely functional for English speaking bloggers. A right hand sidebar with styles in pink, blue, and Christmas included, this theme also supports several plugins and third party services like Ultimate Tag Warrior and Delicious. Worth a look.

Submit Item

If you would like to submit a plugin or theme for posting, feel free to submit a draft for consideration. All I ask is a valid link to the item, and hopefully a small description of the plugin/theme. A link at least allows me to find a little info. Otherwise, the post will be discarded.

It allows users to scroll through the entire history of your blog with a slick embedded ajax calendar. You can install it in 60 seconds and it has some nice customization, including the ability to overlay other stuff (like flickr photos)

For those not familiar with 30 boxes, it

  • organize your day and your web stuff
  • share the things that you want to share (like parts of your schedule on your blog or myspace)
  • follow your buddies’ myspace, flickr, webshots, livejournal, heck, any personal blog

Blank Site

Some may have experienced over the last week or two the site appearing down. I think I may have found the problem. I didn’t have the default theme in my content folder, so something was triggering a theme switch, and since no default, no theme, no site. A little reading around the support forums, and I came across the blog post, and though I haven’t checked the logs, I do know I hadn’t followed Alex’s instructions either. So, I’ve uploaded the wp-mobile theme to the proper place, added the default theme to the same directory (though I could have changed the name of my custom design to “default”, thereby forcing WP to load it), and hopefully all is well. Hopefully…

ReviewMe

Full Disclosure: This is a sponsored post
With out a doubt, the next few days the blogosphere will be awash in similar posts as this, as the creators of Text Link Ads have announced a new service, ReviewMe. Basically it’s another advertising system, in which those wanting to advertise can search out blogs to have them “review” their product or service. Primarily done via tag searches, you can then choose the site(s) you want to advertise on based on the amount of traffic the site gets. Obviously, the more the traffic the site gets, the more you spend. To that end, ReviewMe is offering any person who registers the opportunity to cash in immediately, and write a review of their service. Pretty smart, really. Normally, a site is given a price, and ReviewMe splits the amount between the blogger and themselves. So by their standards, they are spending $50,000 to do so. (But since they talk half, they are really only spending $25,000. At $250-$20 a payout, that’s a fair amount of buzz and traffic in a short period of time). How does this relate to WordPress you ask,

Under Construction

Please pardon the dust as I implement a new theme here at WordPress Station. I’ve been sporting the previous design for some time, and though I was quite happy with it, it’s over stayed its welcome. However, being impatient, I’m installing the new design without working all the kinks out. So if you see anything out of place, or simply broken, please let me know. However I believe most read this site via their feed reader, so most will not be effected.
Once this design is tweaked to my liking, my first goal will be to package the previous design up for release, then move onto making the current one available as well.
Again, any input would be greatly appreciated (especially as comments, as I need to work the styling out on those as well :-) ).
