Compatibility? with (tp) or spaces in the directory name? lol

Time to pop the ol' A.T.

Ahhhhh... that makes sense.... teh reason tehy're still there is to preserve compatibility with older versions... however, perhaps this might have been a good time to strip them out (maybe next time... I feel the big 100 coming on ;)

Easiest way to rid somewhere of all "unwanted" files..

From Terminal:

find . -name <file name> -ls -exec rm {} \;

and out they go.

What, you don't have Terminal? lol

Granted, that'll work for linux too. :)

I always run that on a dir I'm getting ready to tar up. Gotta boot them .DS_Store files you know. ;)

I just took those out from mine, Doc. I have my own home and default themes.

Pretty decent collection though, James. Although there's still some cleanup left on them. Mainly extra files, like a backup (.bak) or something. Unless leaving those were intentional.

Yes, the directory names. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Um, Casting a vote for not changing the home theme to the edublog default. Or at the very least give it a different directory name. That was kind of a surprise to see that pop up.

In my themes (including ones i didnt get from this theme pack) i have (see below) about 10-15 theme directory names that have () in them, all which work just fine.

I think he is referring to the theme directory names.

In the current download available, I'll assume leftovers from the last pack, there's:

citrus islandwp
nikynik-blue(tp)
ocadia(tp)
redoable 1.1

Which, it's just fine to rename those directories Doc.

I'll download it again and make a list.

@djtheropy, are you sure? :)

So James is causing havoc, eh?

Yeah Doc, strip those out and name them whatever you'd like.

Erm, which spaces and '()'s?

Luke on "Directory name issues"

Luke — Thu, 19 Jul 2007 03:56:02 +0000

Yes, they would. Where are they coming from?

Wouldn't those spaces and the '()'s in the subdirectory names cause an issue?
