Fixing Broken Plugins
There are many existing RapidWeaver Plugins on the net. Too many to test all with my themes. I have found that sometimes specific plugins may break a theme or even break the whole plugin. This does not only affect my themes. I have found most themes that include the great mootools library break on plugins that include lightbox windows. Thanks to Isaiah from yourhead, his plugins mostly work without any problems. But you may find some strange behaviours from time to time.
I have already described a possible way to fix these incompatibility bugs but dropped it when Isaiah updated all plugins to work. Now, it seems there are still many plugins that do not work properly (e.g. coverflow). So, I decided to republish the workaround in the online documentation and also as a screencast. Be sure to check them out if you encounter any troubles.
The idea is based on a simple utility theme named „Empty“ this theme is freely available to download from my free themes section.

Two More Screencasts Added

Again I added two screencasts. They will teach you the basic things like installing/upgrading themes and how to find out which theme version you are using. Check them out in the new screencasts section.
New Screencast Section Started
16/07/08 17:32 Filed in: Website | Screencast
I just added a new screencast section to my site. This should help you understand how to implement many features of my themes. I started with the following two items:
Mediabox and File Assets:
If you already own the POP theme and haven’t tried the mediabox feature yet, go ahead. This screencast will tell you how you will load images or movies you added to the page assets in mediabox.
Greybox Image Sets:
Image Sets is one of many features of the greybox library which is included in almost all my themes. In this screencast you will learn how to use the Greybox Image Set to load many images in one greybox layer.
Let me know what you think about it.
