Version 4.0.1 of Precious Parent Theme fixes some bugs, gets rid of some outdated codes and adds some features that didn’t make it in the 4.0 release.
To download Precious 4.0.1, see the theme’s page or visit WordPress Themes
Bugs fixed
- Font size on code and pre-tags in Firefox and other Gecko-based browsers (reported by David Cabana )
- Fixed styling of the trackback/ pingback list
- Fixed bug with the Frontpage pagetemplate
- Fixed typo in comments.php
New features
Well, these features isn’t actually new as they were a part of WordPreciousss v. 3.1.1, but they didn’t make it into the 4.0 release.
- Ability to use custom single templates with help of custom keys
- Favicon template tag; the path to your favicon can be filtered.
- Headers for the comment and trackback/ pingback lists
As for code fixing: The theme used some Dark Age (read: deprecated) WP-Codes which now have been removed and replaced with shiny new once.
Thank you for an excellent theme, Kristin! I am currently using it for at least four websites that I am responsible for, and am very pleased with it indeed.
OK, being a Norwegian speaking to another Norwegian, I would normally have used my mother tongue, but since I guess my question can be of interest to others with limited or no knowledge about our language, I have decided to communicate in English this time.
I appreciate your page-front template a lot, and am using it several places. However, I feel that only the title of each of the latest posts can be too little to display, and could case people not to read the post. Therefore, I would like to show the excerpt of each post in addition to the title, maybe also along with the date. What I say, is that I would like a (somewhat reduced) version of the loop from the blog page displayed along with the static text. How can I obtain this? My php skills are _very_ limited.
I hope that you (or someone else) could give me a hint to point me in the right direction.
Takk!

Tore Johnny: I’ve created an alternative page-front for you:
http://wordpreciousss.org/wp-content/uploads/page-front.txt
This show the latest 5 post with excerpts and date under the welcome-message. – You need to copy the .txt-file I’ve linked to and save it as page-front.php

Takk! Det fungerer aldeles utmerket (selvfølgelig), og kan ses bl.a. på framsida hos Synshemmede akademikeres forening: http://www.saf-org.no. Igjen tusen takk for hjelpa.

Kudos for Precious. I looked over at least 50 or 60 themes before selecting Precious, it is perfect. I do have one area that I am trying to figure out, I only have 3 of the “Recent Comments” showing on the side menu, I wanted to have at least 8 showing. I don’t see where I can change this setting–can someone help?
Also, is there a way to turn off the breadcrumbs at the top of the page? And how can I delete revisions?
Okay, probably way over my quota of questions–just very please with Precious, I want to really keep her going for my blog.

Beta Bull:
1. Comments: you need to edit your widget settings to change number of comments to show.
2. You may hide the links on top by using #accessnav { display:none } in your css file.
3. You can’t delete revisions, but you can turn them off with settings in wp-config.php: http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Disable_Post_Revisions

Thank you for this wonderful theme. While looking for a simple, clean but content-rich theme I ran across your basic2col one, which in turn led me here. It’s perfect! I load my blog into a master page template to keep my web site’s theme consistent, and your work fits like a glove.
Donation on the way.
Thanks again!
