Bugs and features in WP’s default theme

Sunday, March 6th, 2005

While the new default theme shipped with WordPress 1.5 is looking really good, I’ve found two bugs (one feature?) I really had to fix:

  • The footer is shifted 1px to the right when using Firefox. Konqueror works fine, though.
    Solution: Set the left padding of #footer in style.css from 1 to 0px.
  • When watching entries in “archive-mode” (e.g. displaying by category or month), the links within a post are not displayed. This might be considered a feature but it just doesn’t make any sense to me.
    Solution: archive.php is calling the_excerpt() instead of the_content()..

Blogsoft comparison

Over at digg I stumbled over a well done comparison of blogging software, “The Battle of the Blogging Engines”. Keith Smolar lists the pros and cons of each application and even created a handy table for quick comparison. Of course there’s a conclusion – seems like WordPress made it for Keith.

Spam..

Not even four days online and I already have spam all over the place. Well: Fuck you!. Isn’t there some sort of Spamassassin for WordPress? I guess I just go digging through the plug-in pages and see what i can find.

So I installed myself this little blog. Maybe the ease-of-use will keep me using it..
