Take a look at the new magazine style theme. Nice, clean, and a fresh new layout with many nice features.

DePo Masthead Theme Launch

Very nice theme, but again I had to tell support about a theme with bugs. The list so far:
1. The Next/ Previous post titles at the bottom overlap if your post titles are more than 3 words or so
2. Captions are not in a gray box
3. Category widget does not show hierarchy
4. <H3> does not work

Edit: Captions do work.

As I said here, https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/words-jumbled-in-the-new-depo-masthead-theme?replies=3 , hopefully like with Albeo the bugs will disappear quickly. I see this thread has been modlooked also.

I just noticed the other thread, and I’ll refrain from posting in both threads, but stick to this one, should I discover more oddities.

Eh, not a problem. Albeo had several threads going as well. It’s inevitable.

Thanks for the reports! We’ll make sure to get these to our designer and get things fixed as quick as we can.

Making this topic Sticky for awhile.

Not a bad theme but a real magazine styled theme would be even better.

@tactiguru – All themes are available from our svn repository. http://svn.automattic.com/wpcom-themes/

Note, we’ve listened to our user’s requests and the theme is now widgetized in all three footer areas.

Hi folks,

I’ve downloaded the theme, and I get the following error when I use it.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function post_class() in /home/mmuzone/domains/iqbalghaffar.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/depo-masthead/home.php on line 26

You may go to http://www.iqbalghaffar.com to see what I mean.

Any ideas what went wrong? Did I install it wrongly?

Since you are self-hosted and using the software downloaded from wordpress.ORG, you need to direct your question to http://wordpress.ORG/support/ . This forum is for users of WordPress.COM, the free hosting service, and it uses a modified multi-user version of the software which is different from what you are using and few, if any, here know anything about it.

WordPress.com or WordPress.org? The difference.

1. The Next/ Previous post titles at the bottom overlap if your post titles are more than 3 words or so

I couldn’t even find it when I tested it out.

The theme is using some functions that aren’t available in WP 2.6.2 yet, but will be available in WP 2.7.

i have just two little questions (one of them i already posted on the website – http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2008/09/12/depo-masthead-theme-launch/; sry for that, i didnt realized the note to the forum):

is this right, that the widget “DePo Archives & Categories” shows only the first five categories? or is this a bug, which will be fixed?

i also realized, that the archive function isnt working correctly. when i want to see achived entries, only the first 10 were shown. the other entries i cant reach, there is no “older entries”-button or such thing.

this is insanely awesome. i chose it for my newest blog design without knowing it was so hot off the presses!

one issue i have is that the comment form warns visitors not to leave bad comments b/c they’ll be deleted. i prefer to give my own instructions to my visitors. is there any way to change this?

You might be able to hide that with the paid CSS upgrade, but you cannot change what it says; that is set in the underlying theme files, which we do not have access to.
