Skeleton Wp Save

#Skeleton WordPress Theme

For new installations, you may wish to install the latest stable version from wordpress.org.

Notice: Before updating Skeleton, please see the notes below as there are three branches to consider.

• For latest development version, please use the master branch.

• If you're updating from Skeleton 1.x, please update from the 1.x branch.

• If you're updating from Skeleton 2.0.x, please update from the 2.x-options-framework branch.

Why? As of version 2.1.x, the options formerly located within the Options Framework (under Appearance → Theme Options) have been moved to the native WP theme customizer to allow for acceptance into the WP.org theme repository. If you'd prefer to continue using the Options framework, please switch to the the 2.x-options-framework branch. See additional notes regarding shortcodes below.

##About

Skeleton, authored by Casey Lee at Simple Themes is a simple, responsive WordPress theme based on the Skeleton Boilerplate. It has several useful shortcodes, such as tabs, toggles, cross-browser CSS3 buttons, and layout columns.

Live Demo: themes.simplethemes.com/skeleton

Installation & Basic Setup

To install Skeleton, you should unzip the package locally, then upload the smpl_skeleton folder to your WP site (via FTP):

It is highly recommended to use a child theme so you don't lose changes.

An example child theme is included in the package in the skeleton_childtheme folder.

Your final directory structure should be:

wp-content/themes/smpl_skeleton

wp-content/themes/skeleton_childtheme

Activate skeleton_childtheme from Appearance > Themes and enjoy.

You can configure the options from Appearance → Theme Options.

If you need to customize any of theme options, copy the parent theme options.php to your child theme directory.

To override any of the parent theme functions, just copy the function(s) from the parent theme into your child theme's functions.php file. Skeleton will always give priority to the child theme.

##Shortcodes

Because Skeleton is now hosted in the wordpress.org theme repository, Skeleton's shortcodes and additional styles are considered "plugin territory" and therefore must be installed separately in order to work properly. If you're using Skeleton and would like to take advantage of these shortcodes within the theme, please download and install the smpl-shortcodes plugin. You can the shortcodes in action on the shortcodes demo page.

###Callouts

A callout is (by default) a rounded cornered styled inset box. It has two arguments:

• align - aligns the callout left, right, or center
• width - Only use this parameter if you must. Defined widths will not scale properly on all devices. Instead, consider embedding them in one of the column shortcodes.

[callout align="center" width="75%"]
This is a 75% centered callout box
[/callout]

[callout align="left" width="300px"]
This is a 300px left aligned callout box
[/callout]

[callout align="right" width="400px" title="Callout Title"]
This is a 400px right aligned callout box with title
[/callout]

[callout title="Callout Title"]
This is a callout with title and will expand the entire width of its parent container.
[/callout]

###Fluid Columns

You've seen these before. The fractional shortcode combinations allow you to insert scalable columns into your content. The only rule here is, the last column must have a suffix of '_last'. See the example below.

// Three Columns Example
[one_third]
Column One - Add anything you want here
[/one_third]

[one_third]
Column Two - Add anything you want here
[/one_third]

[one_third_last]
Column Three - Add anything you want here
[/one_third_last]

Available Options – Up to 6 columns

• one_third
• two_thirds
• one_half
• one_fourth
• three_fourths
• one_fifth
• two_fifth
• three_fifth
• four_fifth
• one_sixth
• five_sixth

###Cross-Browser CSS3 Buttons Tested in IE7,IE8,IE9,Webkit, and Mozilla browsers. Preview all colors and sizes

[button align="center" color="white" size="small" link="http://www.simplethemes.com"]Small Button[/button]

###Tabs You can create tabs content within your content as well. Each tab needs a unique id (identifier) in order to work.

[tab title="Tab 2" id="t2"]Tab 2 content[/tab]
[tab title="Tab 3" id="t3"]Tab 3 content[/tab]
[/tabgroup]

###Raw HTML

Sometimes the WordPress editor will strip out your more advanced markup. This can be a real drag. By wrapping your code in [raw] tags, you can eliminate this issue.

###Clearing

If you ever need to clear an element, you can use the “clear” shortcode below.

[clear]

###Clear with Horizontal line:

Similar to “clear”, this does the same thing but adds a horizontal line below.

[clearline]
