Introducing my latest WordPress theme called Black Green. It’s simple, ultra-minimal and uses an Ajax Accordion script. The theme is a spin of the Black-Letterhead theme, but it’s more elegant and simpler. See the Accordion script in action by clicking between the Articles and Archives links.

Hi again Ulysses,
Thanks.. but I’m way beyond the background now
I do have one element that I haven’t been able to find/change — the date element. According to firebug, it is the class=”postdate”, but I don’t find it in either .css file. I even tried adding it to style.css, but that didn’t work either… any ideas?
Thanks,
PJ

Ulysses,
I’ve mucked something up… if you look at my site using FireFox, it looks the way I want it to look, but if you use IE — it looks like crap — the accordion_child element is WAY out of line and I don’t understand why… any suggestions??
Thanks,
PJ
Hi again Ulysses,
I’ve noticed a distracting shake in the javascript transition between the posts link and the menu (or meta) link. I don’t recall seeing this before and I’m puzzled if I changed something inadvertently… Would you take a look at my page to see what I mean?
Many thanks!
PJ
Prophet Joe,
I noticed the page is whacked in IE particularly with the accordion index page. Do you remember what changes you did on accordion.css? The page width is also too wide. Let me take a look at it this afternoon. Sorry, kind of busy lately. I’ll get to it this afternoon.
Prophet Joe,
I noticed you made quite a bit of CSS changes to style and the accordion files. I found it difficult to undone what you have done without spending too much time and fixing every little thing. One option is to start from scratch. Download the theme again and make litlle changes along the way and making sure it works in both Firefox and IE browsers. Do you have a chat account if you want to discuss further. I’m available at ulyssesr at either yahoo, msn or aol.
Thanks, Ulysses — sorry it’s taken me so long for me to respond, but it’s been very hectic lately!!

Hello there,
I love this theme of yours, it’s just awesome!
I was wondering if I’m allowed to do any changes to it? I kinda already did, but if u don’t allow it, I’ll just have to think of something else. I’ll change the theme immediately back the way it was if you say so
Could u please reply via email? Would be great. You can see the changes by checking the website i provided.
Forgot to ask one thing. Is there any easy way to make this widget-ready? I’m not that good coder. :>
blizzu,
the theme is release GNU open source. You can do anything you want to it as long as you release the code if someone asks for it.
I like the changes you made to the theme. Keep up the good work.
I suppose you can make any part of the theme widget ready. Check out the Akismet or the WordPress.org website. They have tutorials how to make a theme widget ready. You can apply it to any theme or any part of a theme. Good luck with that.
Hi,
Great theme, but the accordion seems not to work in IE 6. I hate IE. Is there a fix?
Thanks.
Wiesel, I have to take a look at it. I thought I had it tested on IE6 and IE7. I’ll get back to you later.
OK, I figured out what was wrong; I had IE set at it’s most secure for internet browsing and it blocked the javascript. I apologize for wasting your time.
By the way, I’m preparing to use your theme and I’d like to know the proper etiquette for giving you credit.
Thanks again.
