  Love the new look Thank you! Can the template be edited to show the categories instead of the tags in a post like in OM 1.2?

  Hello -

  Thank you for this great template!

  I would like to set the home page to display a static page. When I set this in SETTINGS -> READING, I still get a HOME page tab, which duplicates the content of the static page that I have set as the home page.

  The DNS for the site is not resolved yet so it is not accessible.

  Many thanks!

  somehow, I find the the popular NextGEN Gallery plugin doesn’t work properly in this theme, the default ‘thick box’ pop up when adding a photo/album doesn’t work as it did in earlier version of ocean mist.

  One proposal for footer.php - keep output from wp_footer() at bootom of page:

  #wpfooter, #wpfooter *, #wpfooter p { color: #cccccc !important; }
  #wpfooter a, #wpfooter a:active, #wpfooter a:visited, #wpfooter a:hover, #wpfooter a:focus { color: #ffff66 !important; }
  #wpfooter a:hover { color: #ff3333 !important; }

  I keep unchanged other files, so the style is inline

  I work with v1.2 everything is ok. Now, i tested the v2.0 of Ocean Mist. But the Plugin “NextGEN Gallery” doesn’t work. I get the message: “No Flash-Plyayer installed and no JAVASCRIPT activatet”.

  With v1.2 everthing is ok. Can somebody help me?

  hotels says:

  The sidebar with this theme is very strange with browsing by IE 6.0. There many people who has IE 6.0 yet, so I think you should fix this bug on this great theme.

• 5th April 2009 at 4:57 pm

  hotels says:

  I found the bug ;)

  In the original header.php of this theme you can find this:

  
  <link href=”/styles/ie7.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” media=”screen” />

  
  <link href=”/styles/ie6.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” media=”screen” />

  I changed to this:
  
  <link href=”/styles/ie7.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” media=”screen” />

  
  <link href=”/styles/ie6.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” media=”screen” />

  Since this changing everything is OK with the sidebar of my site under IE 6.0

  The template is wonderful but… I just found out that Firestats ( http://firestats.cc/ ) does NOT work with it!!!
  With the Ocean Mist 1.2 template (the previous version) everything is ok…
  Any idea how to solve this nasty problem? =/

  Thank you very much.

• 10th April 2009 at 4:33 pm

  [.::MDT::.] says:

  Ok, I solved it!

  Richard White says:

  I’m having a lot of trouble making the template scale correctly in IE 6 when the font size is changed on the IE View menu. Works fine in Firefox, Safari, etc. Is this an IE bug or is my knowledge of CSS lacking? The site owners really want to use this theme, but I’ve invested days in this and nothing I do seems to change what IE displays. When the text size is Medium, all looks okay. When Text Size is set to “Larger”, the header image is cropped. When “Smaller”, the image shrinks and leaves background showing. I think I have the same problem as lecaude up above. Also, hotels said they solved a similar sounding bug involving the stylesheets, but I can’t see what they changed. Any help will be greatly appreciated, even if just to say that it’s an IE bug and can’t be fixed.

  Kit Kaplan says:

  I used Ocean Mist in my Wordpress.com site and had no problems. I moved to a hosted site and used the instal in the interface. In the Appearance section there is no option to change the header and not widgets. It says it is not widget awar and see instructions but the page it links to is very complicated. How can I get the same functionality in the hosted version?

• 19th September 2009 at 1:52 pm

  Michae Glover says:

  I have the same problem as Kit Kaplan above. No custom header option?

  Love the theme, it’s wonderful!
  But now, as I do no longer use the wordpress.com hostet site, but on my own server, I cannot find the theme anymore. Can you help me? (It is no longer available, I searched for “Ocean Mist” but also for “Ed Merritt” and even for the Tags, but it is nowhere!
  Tooo bad.
  Would be cool, and I’d be glad if you can fix that. Thank you very much!
