Theme Dreams (or What's Up with Themes These Days?)
I used to do all my websites in html from scratch. Now everything is php which for me stands for Pain, Headache and Pisses me off!
So now I'm getting the hang of Wordpress (there is a God!) but now they're designing these new themes that are supposed to make life easier - NOT for me!
I am used to changing a theme and have everything in my previous theme transfer go and find a seat in the new digs - -but NO! Now, I got to go and "set" things up for my new easy theme and it represents another hour of time I shouldn't have to waste!!!
Just last night, I changed a theme with my own banner (already uploaded to the wordpress install and in media library - mind you) and wala! I have to now upload the banner to my new easy theme. Of course, whoever designed the new easy theme never thought that I may already have a header in the media library - you'd think! Why couldn't I get the wordpress standard media uploader (is it really that hard?) that also - OMG! - gives a homo SAPIEN a choice to use an already uploaded header wonder! How simplistsic!
Of course I didn't have a copy on my PC due to last year's virus attack - thank you non-sapien _____ (used as per the scientific term - no pun intended & absolutely no offense intended to anyone of any sexual orientation - I am a craftsman of words and ideas, simply) out there for that one!
So I had to download the header using Cpanel to my PC and that made it easy for my new "easy" theme to get ...."hachem".. some header.
So the reason now for this thread - which I hope isn't a repeat of some other (I searched first and found nothing specific) is to list our complaints about themes and what we want to see in themes for the future. It is hoped that theme designers can chime in and give us some insight as well as gather a few of ours to implement into future theme development.
Also, to alert our thread subscribers to new themes or new uses and tweaks for older themes. And maybe, hopefully...someone will make an "Easy Theme, truly EASY!
