It’s been a long day since I update this blog.  At this moment, I’m working on two WordPress theme.  I call them WP Tube Substitution and WPThemestudio X2.

WP Tube Substitution

This theme is a mimic of Youtube video sharing website.  Although I have finished version 0.1, I’m still not releasing it for public because there’s still some bugs and functionalities that I wish to fix before releasing it for you all to download.  This theme is the continuing series for the theme WordPress Tube.  As WordPress tube reflects the old design of Youtube, this new theme will reflects the new design of Youtube.

You can see WP Tube Substitution Version 0.1 live in action at sYokManga.com which is one of my beta tester.

This theme will have two version.  Public version and Premium version.  Public version will be just like ordinary WordPress theme with 50% design of Youtube including its functionality and video position.  Premium version will have all function as in WordPress Tube plus 95% of Youtube design and far better codings than WordPress Tube.  Same as Youtube video positions, url box and embed box.  WordPress Tube will be discontinue for download when WP Tube Substitution released to public.

If you wish to become my beta tester, feel free to contact me privately using the contact form.

WPThemestudio X2

I think I will not making any child theme anymore.  I will focus on one parent theme and the customizations will only affects the color scheme of the theme.  Beside, what’s the point of using that theme if its not looking like what the theme should look?

If you wish however to have such theme, there’s far better theme framework than WPThemestudio.  Well developed and supported such as Hybrid theme by Justin Tadlock.

WPThemestudio X2 is the continuing series of WPThemestudio. It still have the same concept, but far different codings and structure. WPThemestudio will be discontinue for public when WPThemestudio X2 released to public.

This theme will concentrate more to “no hand code for user” concept.  Hence all customizations will be done only through WordPress administration page.  However somehow, for someone that never took formal php programming language lesson like me, I am a little bit slow in learning how to make this feature.  But so far, I manage to create the option page for this theme.  It’s just that I’m still stuck on how to save the value of the variables to WordPress database and then call up the value to use in the settings.

Good news to everyone, this theme will be available for all at no cost at all.

Wish me good luck.
