WordPress Theme: Giraffe

After the (almost) complete restoration of my system I can now get back to finishing off the things I was working on. The result of this is I’ve now made the theme for this website available for download.

I’ve tried to tidy it up as much as possible, although it’s still not perfect. There is also one small issue with Firefox 1.0.4. Sometimes, on a wide screen (1400 pixels on mine), FireFox will incorrectly add a 1 pixel gap between a border in the comments section. I’m not sure what the cause of this is, and it only occurs on FireFox – all other browsers display it perfectly. I know it’s a browser inconsistency because resizing the screen causes the gap to disappear. Until I can figure out a fix, or if anyone else knows the reason, then I will put it down as an acceptable problem that will hopefully disappear in the next FireFox release.

Anyway, the theme can be found in the themes section. I’m looking forward to any feedback and suggestions!

  1. I tend to write longer posts, and wouldn’t want the navigation to be pushed down beyond the “fold.” Is there a way to make it float at a certain depth?

  2. Getting this error when clicking ‘Page’ Links, what did I miss?

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: c2c_get_random_posts() in /mnt/web_f/d36/s13/b024fd4b/www/wordpress/wp-content/themes/giraffe/page.php on line 21

  3. Is it possible that I don’t have the correct giraffe.php plugin, here’s another error, when clicking an ‘Older Post’ link.

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: giraffe_link_pages() in /mnt/web_f/d36/s13/b024fd4b/www/wordpress/wp-content/themes/giraffe/single.php on line 3

  4. Thanks John, that fixed it, although your link points to the version 1.1 theme files, I know you meant the plugin so I dl’ed that and all is good.

  5. John, this theme is really quite excellent. Thanks for all the hard work, and thanks for making it available. I’m customizing it a bit before applying it to my blog and am looking forward to seeing it in action.
