don’t know how I missed that, been on that page many times.

I am still absolutely amazed at the number of things I miss — and they are there all the time. Happens to all of us.

Ok, I’ll hope FB resolves it’s weirdness.

That’s asking a lot! 😉

Seriously, though, I’m not sure how FB grabs on to images. It was my belief (imagination?) that they capture a copy and then cache it, so if your hotlinking prevention goodness in your htaccess file prevents them from getting it, then they might just grab your gravatar, which is hosted at gravatar.com. You might want to add an exclusion for Facebook in your htaccess file and see if that takes care of the problem:

In reply to: Forum options for Graphene?

#25878

Yes — bbPress. This plugin is now supported by Graphene, but you will need to update to Graphene 1.6 to use it. You are currently running Graphene 1.5.6.

Moved to support. Please be sure to post in the correct section.

Comment order is not really a theme issue. Go to

Settings >> Discussion Settings

and look for a line that says:

“Comments should be displayed with the [ ] comments at the top of each page”

Choose “newer” and save options.

(comments.php)?

Editing core files (either theme or WP) is really not recommended. Child theme is the way to go.

@hbabels:

Please search through this forum, since this has been discussed a lot since the last upgrade and the solution you are seeking may be waiting for you.

I would start by temporarily disabling your plugins.

If that doesn’t work, please let us know in this thread.

I would try these things, in this order:

1. Disable all plugins temporarily. (Just ftp to your WP folder and rename your plugins folder.)

2. Reinstall Graphene.

That image is not showing up here. Apparently your host doesn’t allow hotlinking to specific image files.

About the FB image: it really is up to Facebook to decide which image they are going to grab. I don’t know how you are posting an article to Facebook, but there is (for me, at least), an option to scroll through various images to select which one will appear (or no image).

In reply to: Header Nav Not Pulling Custom Sprites Properly

#23679

It’s not the width of the sprite image you posted that the changelog is talking about. It’s that the images on the Graphene sprite have been moved down.

1.5.6 sprite:

They actually use a single image for that. You can see it here:

Photoshop or GIMP.

In reply to: Small text area if I use the Graphene theme

#25678

Umm…don’t use WPMU, so I can’t really tell you. However, the visual editor was redesigned in the 1.6 update to enhance the user experience, so you may want to leave it up to your users whether or not they want to change it. And give them the heads up that about what they are seeing and how to change it if they would like to.
