HALFmt.
The name “HALFmt” comes from what my original name domain name would have been - half me (Matthew Trevino) and half Erin (my partner and editor). This theme has been sitting in my Wordpress folder for about 4 months now, so I decided to update it just a bit, remove some un-necessary code, and release it publicly.

Note: This theme was developed under Wordpress 2.1. If you have not upgraded yet, then I can not say whether or not this theme will work. (Although it probably should work, I’m just letting you know that I haven’t tested it with any versions of Wordpress prior to 2.1.)

Installation

  • Download HALFmt and un-zip it.
  • Upload to your /wp-content/themes/ folder.
  • Navigate to “Presentation” and then select it.
  • Done.

Lightbox
The lightbox javascript comes pre-installed and bundled with the package. To use the effect, your links should look like this: . Not exactly like that, but you will need the rel=”lightbox” in your href portion of the link.

Plugins supported
No code has been written into the theme for plugins, but as far as I know, no plugins will break it.


Questions
A few questions that you may have that I have decided to ask myself.

Q: Why aren’t there any plugins (or code for plugins written into this theme)?
A: Who am I to say what plugins are more popular than others? I’ll let you decide on what you want in there and what you don’t. Other than Lightbox (which is a javascript and is already included in the code), there is no code for other plugins.

Q: Will my plugins break this theme?
A: Truthfully? I have no idea. Although they shouldn’t (at least the non-obtrusive ones like word count, similar posts, time since, etc.), there is still always the possibility of the breakage occurring. I designed this theme with the bare necessities needed to run a viewable blog; most plugins (at least 90%) either don’t add any functionality that is truly necessary or just don’t interest me. I like keeping things simple yet pleasing. Hopefully, I have achieved this.


Bugs
None yet, but the night’s young.


Anything else?
