Posted by David as Site Updates

I have added a feature to allow you to change the site from either WHITE or BLACK. You choose. I know, super exciting.

Try it out:

Choose Color:
Black
White

The choices are right above the SEACH bar in the upper right. I may add other colors as I go.

hi, i love your w/b switcher. Is it a wp plug ? complicated codes ? thanx for your answer.
I started on hemingway reloaded and decided to switch bach to the basic hemingway becose the community is more reactive.

Thanks. It is not a wp plugin, but a small piece of Javascript. In order to do the switch I had to add the JS to the HEADER file in the template and add the “CHOICE” menu to the footer file. And believe it or not, the black style is simply the Hemingway style sheet with a few items added to it.

As far as the navbar, that is a simple piece of PHP programming I threw in the header.

Are either of them complicated? Not really but it depends on your comfort level working with in the code. If you are interested I can give you more details and downloads to my code.

Thanks for the compliments

Well (sorry for my english), I’m not sure my level is good enough to work on javascript or php programming. I’m just starting to get my way in html. But I try experimenting on my blog. So if it doesnt bother you, I will happy to give it a try.
I see you are now on the Hemingway reloaded theme, is there a special reason for that ? I was on it and switched to the Hemingway (the native one) who has an active forum and frequente updates.
One more thing your presentation (ie “olders”, quickswitcher) and your pages are really nice and original, never thought proposing your own theme ?

Truthfully, the reason I am on Hemingway reload vs Hemingway is because I found it first. I have been looking at Hemingway and actually will probably play with it in the next few days.

Because of that, I am going to hold on on posting the “how to” for this theme. That way I can check out Hemingway first.

I will email you when I decide on which way I want to go.

Thanks for the compliments. I am still playing with this but it is coming along.

And no aplogies necessary for your English, I do not speak any French so you ahead of me.

OK - I started playing with Hemingway. WHOA. Yeah totally gonna switch and start my efforts there. Since it already has a config panel I maybe able to build for that and contribute them back to the project. I would rather contribute to the core instead of a “deviated” theme.

Look for my totally implimentation of that in the next couple of days. Depends on the time I have.
