Hackery

WordPress theme developed for ellieirons.com

Requirements

• PHP version 5.4 (DomDocument options)

Media settings

Works best in conjunction with Media Press plugin.

• Thumbnail size: 316 x 195 (yes, crop it)
• Medium size: 482 x 0 (no limit on height)
• Large size: 648 x 0
• XL size: 980 x 0 (don’t crop, show in image insertion)
• XXL size: 1280 x 0 (don’t crop, show in image insertion)
• Enable 2x image sizes

Page setup

Go to the Pages section of the WordPress admin. This is where everything happens.

1. Create a new Page in WordPress, use the Stack page template
2. In Settings → Reading, set your new Page to be the front page
3. Create children of the page
4. Use Page "order" number to define the order each sub-page appears

Image format

Use the Image format for a “full-bleed” image treatment

• Use the featured image to set the background

Gallery format

Use the Gallery format for the “projects” treatment

• Each child page of the gallery is represented by its featured image
• Use the caption text in the featured image to control how the project is
• If the caption text includes a link, that will be used instead of the page (useful linking to off-site URLs, just create a placeholder page with a featured image)

Menu Template

• Use the Menu template for the “videos” treatment
• Each child of the menu is represented in the list and loaded in dynamically

Custom fields

• Use the page_class custom field for adding a CSS class to a page
• Set page_class to dark to invert the color scheme (like with the “videos” page)

Footer links

• Edit the links in the Links section of the WordPress admin
• Use the rating value to sort links by importance (higher rating comes first)
