HUGE Theme Upgrades!
We just enabled a massive list of new Appearance Options for theme designers including Custom Fonts, Booleans (useful for toggling options), Custom Text (useful for enabling widgets), and Custom Images!
Some of these features are already available in Jacob Bijani’s and Peter Vidani’s themes, so try them out.
Designers - here’s a quick preview of what’s now possible:
<html> <head> <meta name="image:Background" content="http://static.tumblr.com/..."/> <meta name="image:Header" content=""/> <meta name="font:Body" content="Arial"/> <meta name="text:Flickr Username" content=""/> <style type="text/css"> body { background: #2D567C url('{image:Background}'); font: normal 14px {font:Body}; } </style> </head> <body> {block:IfHeaderImage} <img src="{image:Header}"/> {/block:IfHeaderImage} {block:IfNotHeaderImage} <h1>{title}</h1> {/block:IfNotHeaderImage} {block:IfFlickrUsername} <div id="flickr_widget"> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://flickr.com/widget?user={text:Flickr Username}"> </script> </div> {/block:IfFlickrUsername} </body> </html>Tomorrow morning we’ll be promoting all the themes with these new options enabled, so hurry!
Awesome in every way.
Kudos for using the meta tag for something actually useful.
And the Booleans, 100 thumbs up!
