the_content section on homepage doesn't retain HTML styling.

See: http://govpress.co

Examples:

What they say

"Top of the line municipal websites can cost small- to medium-sized cities as much as $20,000 or more. It's a shocking figure at a time when our communities' budgets are still struggling. We still need to get information out in a simple, effective manner to the public in the most transparent way possible. The GovFresh WP theme allows us to provide our community with a professional municipal website that is easy to navigate on multiple platforms, including mobile devices and tablets. Open source technologies like WordPress are the way of the future for governments of all sizes."

When creating a widget for RSS, because the background and link color are the same, the link is hidden in the widget title.

Also, possible to 'display: none' the RSS icon?

This is just an idea for a future feature enhancement. It would allow a full bleed header image across the entire site.

Previously, we had an HTML sitemap template.

Is this something we can add back?

Something like this: https://yoast.com/html-sitemap-wordpress/

Or is there a plugin we can recommend? Would prefer something that's there's not a lot of work needed to set up.

Examples:

• http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-sitemap-page/
• http://wordpress.org/plugins/kwayy-html-sitemap/

I have barely done any browser testing on this project. If someone would like to take this on, that would be amazing. I'm thinking we should actively support the two latest versions of IE, and at least check IE8 and up for serious formatting issues.

In the original version of the theme, @lukefretwell used a different template for posts assigned to a "press release" taxonomy.

I think we should do a little more research to see how government websites are formatting these. Perhaps the feature can be added as a separate plugin module to avoid adding code and maintenance weight to the base theme.

Some requirements we might need for this feature:

• Option to select a taxonomy to be used for press releases
• Option to set post footer text that could be common for all press releases (e.g. contact info)

This was a feature in the original version of the theme that @lukefretwell thinks will be useful for government websites.

• We should autodetect if a page has children. If so, display the as a menu on the left.
• Add an option so that it can be turned off universally.
• Add an option to it can be turned off on a per page basis.

Would be great if this was styled better or just had search box. Content below search is clunky. Layout also seems inconsistent with other pages (no sidebar like here: http://govpress.co/?s=govpress).

Would be nice to somehow include an HTML sitemap page similar to what I created here:

http://wp.govfresh.com/sitemap/

The submit button styling is overriding basic styles making it hard to read in some places.

Can we remove 'box-shadow' and 'text-shadow' styles here?

button, input[type="button"], input[type="reset"], input[type="submit"]

Hi ! When I select a category, from the lateral "Category" option, it opens it in the main page but it is not showing the menu. It works fine and shows the menu when I open a page or a post. Is there a fix or something I can do to show the menu when opening a category ? Thank you for your help. And many many thanks for making this theme available. It's great !!!

Add theme options so base color can be changed.

Perhaps incorporating this?

http://wptheming.com/2012/07/options-framework-theme-customizer/

I remove RTL.css for the moment. We'll add it back when someone has time to style it.

Perhaps we should use negative margins to keep the so the submit button stays on the same line as the search input.

single.php author description needs clear for left/right align images in post

See: http://wp.govfresh.com/govfresh-wp-now-github/

The post categories/tags overlap when they wrap on the page.

Also, the more I see these, the more I think they should be below the comments section. Visually, they're distracting from the author bio and comments section, but I think still good to have somewhere on the page.

Change from wp.govfresh.com to govpress.co

Hello!

I noticed what I believe to be a typo in the sidebar-page-parent.php file:
< h 3 class="widget-title">< /h 1 >

There is both an h3 and an h1 tag. (please ignore the spaces; I'm having difficultly showing all the code without them.)

We loaded the GitHub version of GovPress 1.0.1 on our site awhile back and Luke would love for me to update to the latest version housed on Wordpress.org. I believe that's v1.1.

I am trying to update from within Wordpress itself but it states that all of my themes are up to date.

Any idea why this might be? Is it because the version I loaded up came from GitHub initially? Thoughts on fix?

The Wiki for the icon menu states I need to provide a CSS class from an organization in order to modify the image that shows up with my link.

Unfortunately I don't appear to have the menu option for CSS class in the icon menu.

First and foremost, this theme totally rocks! I have been looking for something like this for a long time. It simple enough for a guy like me. I just have one question, I am trying to remove the "home" from showing up in the content area. Its ok to be in the menu. I am trying to find this set of code to remove it but I cant find it no where on the css. Can someone please just guide me to the correct spot where I can make the changes? Thank you.

.home .post-title {
display: none;
}

We should conditionally show the homepage content section based on whether there's content in the editor.

If that template is being used, and no content is entered into the editor, can we hide that section automatically?

Make 'translation ready' per Wilson's feedback:

Request from user to add body classes for IE. Let's match what 2014 does:

<!--[if IE 7]>
<html class="ie ie7" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>
<html class="ie ie8" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if !(IE 7) & !(IE 8)]><!-->
<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<!--<![endif]-->

The WordPress.org theme review guidelines state that themes cannot use "wp" in their name: http://make.wordpress.org/themes/guidelines/guidelines-license-theme-name-credit-links-up-sell-themes/

We could change the name of the theme from "GovFresh WP" to "GovFresh". Alternatively, we could come up with an entirely new naming convention. This might good, especially if different themes get released in the future. "GovFresh Standard" for instance.

It would also be good to rename the project in GitHub, since we are at a fairly early stage.

To make the update the stylesheet, textdomain, and all prefixes would need to be changed.

Footer search button height doesn't match text box height (does in homepage hero unit). Is this a big deal?

Hello!

The search button is now showing up correctly; it looks like the value is set to "fl". Here is a capture of what it looks like.

EDIT: So I went into the editor and changed the value to "search", but the font is set to serif. I'm a bit of a newbie at PHP, so I'm not sure how to fix this on the back end.

Hello!

I've just set up Yoast Breadcrumbs on our site. It looks like in the code it's currently set to show up at the bottom of the page. I was curious as to why you decided to go with this layout, and if you would consider moving it to the top. I think it could get lost at the bottom of the page and not be helpful for people trying to determine where they are on the site.

Right sidebar drops below main content area on smaller devices, but doesn't adjust to the full page.

See here:

Add widget section for homepage main content area.

See http://wp.govfresh.com as point of reference.

The way I initially set it up was as a page template (page-home.php) with the following elements:

• hero unit widget section
• icons
• show last 3 posts
• the_content
• homepage main widget section

Hello, It could be good to be able to manage headings (H1, H2, H3 ...) on our website.

Hello,
It seems that it is impossible to customise permalink (www.mysite.com/%postname%/), as when I use it with wordpress v3.9.1 it send me to a 404 error page.
My webhoster is Olympe (a free web hosting service).
You can see the error on my website : http://prunault.olympe.in/
Just clic on a web page (eg. : profil) and you will see the 404 error page.
Please, let me know if you have any solution for me.

When you create the top menu it's showing the default 'i' icon for each menu item. The default works fine.

Hi,

The background of my icon menu is not working correctly. It only shows two small white blocks at the beginning and the end of the menu.

Could this be fixed?

Best wishes,

Janneke

Change Theme URI from http://govfresh.com/ to http://govpress.co

Mentioned in the forums:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-footer-has-zero-margins-on-small-devices-like-phones

Footer should have right/left margin for small screen layouts.

Let's add support for the popular PageNavi plugin:

http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-pagenavi/

Jetpack has a number of modules that government websites might find useful.

We should test and add support for the following modules:

• Publicize
• Subscriptions
• Likes
• Carousel
• Sharing
• Contact Form
• Tiled Galleries
• Infinite Scroll

If you'd like to work on support for one of these, but not all, go ahead and open a new issue and link to it from here.

I've added an "Icon Menu" which can be displayed above the content section. It uses a custom walker to apply the class set in the WordPress menu admin to the actual link.

If you set an icon class for a menu item, that icon will appear above the text link. These were the icons used in the original version of the theme:
.icon-calendar
.icon-gavel
.icon-bar
.icon-comment
.icon-envelope

The full list of available icons is here:
https://github.com/govfresh/govfreshwp/blob/master/fonts/font-awesome/font-awesome.css

The menu also has function to count the number of menu items and apply that as a class to the container so that widths can be applied via CSS.

This is perhaps the best method to do it. Perhaps not. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

How should visibility options be added? (e.g. only display on home page, only display on search page, etc.)

Should this functionality be moved into an add-in plugin instead? Is it too custom for general use?

GovPress version 1.2.1 is increasing the font size of CoolSmart.net's pages when the main navigation menu links are clicked when using the most current Chrome browser for Windows (version 36.0.1985.143 m).

The problem continues to occur after all WordPress plugins have been deactivated.

If the page is refreshed after clicking a main navigation menu link, the font size returns to normal.

This problem does not occur with the most recent versions of Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, and Safari.

Please let me know if you need additional information.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

When adding a new menu button with submenus, the top-level button no longer works. Just get link to #.

Current work-around is to add the top-level page to the submenu.

Point of reference, using wp-bootstrap-navwalker for the nav:

https://github.com/twittem/wp-bootstrap-navwalker

Do we want to have the clear on headers?

/* Headings */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
clear: both;
}

When images are aligned left/right in posts it causes large whitespace gaps.

See: http://govfresh.com/2014/01/smartprocure/

Is there anyway to alter the code in the sidebar-page-parent.php file to make it so it only shows the first level of child pages? I have some pages that have children and grandchildren (is that the right wording for that?) and would only like to show the first level (or just the children, not the grandchildren).

Thanks!

Just out of the curiosity, why heavy use of !important declaration in https://github.com/govfresh/govfreshwp/blob/master/style.css? I don't believe that you need them at all, not for some small stuff like changing fonts etc.

How can I make post and page tags invisible? I don't want them showing up either on the post or on the main blog page with the summaries.

Getting feedback that thumbnails are great but not practical. Want simpler design.

Remove on:

• index.php
• page-home.php
• archive.php
• author.php
