Both Speed and Se7en will not allow me to install javascript based plugins eg sodahead polls or javascript html adder. They just sit.when I drag them to the sidebars, that is I can't get them to react but they work fine under other buddypress themes.
Maybe I'm missing something?
Could anyone help me please.

Thanks,

Steve

I was wondering if you have tried to install these plugins on Seven

I am using The latest versions. I can iinstall the plugins if I change to the buddypress default theme and then re-activate Seven, etc. However if I try to install the plugin thru Seven the plugin install page appears washed out and if I click on install I get:
"Sorry, Not Found, Error 404
You tried going to reach one of our pages and it does not exist. All is not lost. You can click back and try again or search for what you are looking for or go to the homepage...."

I have also re-installed Wordpress and if I try to add a featured post in Seven, it sticks on the "set featured image" page and when I save changes it flickers in the background and I cannot close it, but if I use some other default theme this part works fine,
I am sorry to put all these errors to you but your themes are the best I've found and would like to be able to use them.

Thanks again

Btw Se7en was updated last Friday to version 3.17.16
any theme version lower than this version number is outdated.

Hi
I have changed the background and font color for my pages but the headings or pages bar appears in Firefox but not in IE9. I know it is something in the css file but not sure why it should differ?

Thank you.

Yes it was.My apologies if I have caused confusion.
You have some very good designs and I found that Hal could be best adapted to what I want.
Please tell me if you would like me to post this under a different topic but I suspect that by changing the default css line from:
body {background: #000;font: 14px/21px Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif;color: #fff;margin: 0;padding: 0;}
to this:
body {background: #fff;font: 14px/21px Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif;color: #6f8fde;margin: 0;padding: 0;}
it may happen with other themes.
Just can't work out why it will display correctly in Firefox but not IE9>
Thanx.

What is the exact error in ie9?

Keep in mind that ie is always hooked into win system cache,
therefore you may see an outdated version in ie (any version).

If you look for the Page headings [url=http://www.grumpyslongboarders.com/about] beneath the Header in IE9 you see nothing, it's blank. If you look at them in Firefox or Google Chrome you see the page headings :
Who’s Grumpy? Healthful Hints LongBoard Club Links: Memory Lane History Of Surfing
T-Shirts Community.etc
Trying to figure out why IE won't display them. They are there if you drag the mouse and highlight but are invisible. I realize that it must have something to do with my color choice but why only in IE
Thanks

Seems like cufon (custom font) needs updating, will push that today.

Thank you.
I tried a work around by increasing the Header depth. You can now see the font but not as effective as Firefox.
Now that you have found an answer it should be better.
Thanks again for your excellent response.

Drop this js file with an ftp browser (filezilla) into the theme folder called js ( path: grumpyslongboarders.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/hal2001/js/ ),
this should fix the error.

I did exactly as you asked but the situation remains as before with no display of page headings in IE unless I increase the size of the header to give a blue background.

We misunderstood each other, sorry, you meant the navigation block,
the error is a ie9 bug with css shadows,

solution: you have to change the color of the links in the navigation,
unfortuntely I can't see the exact css line due to the css minify plugin,

but find #pnav li a and change color:#fff to blue or black,
same with #pnav .current_page_item a
and #pnav li li a:hover,

basically you hav to change all color links in navigation (if white), selected with #pnav,
do not use white or grey, something dark to preseve usability,

also the dropdowns have no background,
you might add a background color for better visbility.
