Merchant Update?!?
July 24 2009 08:41 AM Filed in: Merchant
I have recently been working on an update to the very
popular Merchant theme. The update corrects a couple
of css bugs that were pointed out to me recently.
While in the process of updating i have considered
including some EC areas to the theme and am
interested in hearing what you have to say.
Should I ad some EC areas to the Merchant theme if so where would you want them?
Just leave you feedback in the form of a comment

Headliner 3 Update:
Back in late 2007 we released the Headliner 3 theme
that was the only one of its kind for RapidWeaver.
After nearly 18 months it is still the only theme of
its kind that lets the user direct content to a left
and right sidebar. Admittedly, the solution that we
came up with was not the most ideal solution but it
did offer RapidWeaver users something that they
simply could not do with other themes.
With the introduction of Extra Content in late 2008 the H3 theme was a perfect candidate to be update or re-written to take advantage of all the EC offers. So let me give you a rundown on how things are progressing.
We have actually finished all of the markup and around 95% of the css and I have to tell you that this is going to be a phenomenal update. So far everything validates at W3C and works in all of the major browsers including IE6 & IE7. This update will include 2 very popular widths (960 px and 1080 px). You will be able to have full content in either the left or right sidebar. You will also be able to have the sub-navigation in either the left or right sidebar.
Some of the options that were included in the original H3 theme have been removed due to "popular request" ... namely the Google Ads box and the Date box. However, I have included and EC container underneath the top level navigation so you will be able to use this EC container for Google Ads if you wish.
Some other settings have also been removed simply because they were not necessary in the way that we re-wrote the theme.
The H3 theme will have a slightly different naming scheme so that it will not overwrite your current copy of H3. I felt that this was important as many of you are using the H3 theme on really large sites and I did not want to overwrite any settings that you may have set up.
As I mentioned earlier we still have a little more testing to be done before we make this publicly available but this theme will be a FREE update to all who have purchased the theme in the past.

Partitions Update
February 02 2009 07:13 AM Filed in: News
Late last night we released a new build of the
Partitions plugin. This release (build 89) is another
maintenance release and concentrates on the
registration bug that had been affecting a number of
people over the last couple of weeks.
If you already have Partitions installed then all you need to do is open up your project and add a new Partitions page and you should get the update automatically via the Sparkle framework.
If you do not have Partitions yet, then you should download it now and see what you have been missing.
