We love testers

We’d love more people to install Twenty Thirteen, with special emphasis on trying out all the new Post Format features.

Also, if you have access to Windows with various versions of Internet Explorer we especially need help testing out some IE8 and IE10 issues (see TracTrac An open source project by Edgewall Software that serves as a bug tracker and project management tool for WordPress. list link below).

Office hours

We’ll get back to office hours in #wordpress-dev IRCIRC Internet Relay Chat, a network where users can have conversations online. IRC channels are used widely by open source projects, and by WordPress. The primary WordPress channels are #wordpress and #wordpress-dev, on irc.freenode.net. over the next few weeks, Tue and Thu at 17 UTC.

Can’t make it to the office hours, but want to point out a couple more IE 8 issues that may or may not be ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker.-worthy. The headings are displaying in Georgia font, but Bitter should work for IE 8. It’s fine on 9 and 10.

By the way, is IE 7 supposed to be supported/should it be tested?

Here’s a WP 3.6 with (slightly altered – just colors) Twenty Thirteen. Working great so far!

  Thanks for the link—cool color scheme! I’m seeing a few bugs in the comment form layout, though. Will need to debug and fix soon.

Love the brave new look of TwentyThirteen– I’m working on a child themeChild theme A Child Theme is a customized theme based upon a Parent Theme. It’s considered best practice to create a child theme if you want to modify the CSS of your theme. https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/. for my personal blogblog (versus network, site)… (It’s live but on the QT so I’m not too worried about glitches at this point).

A few issues I’ve seen… with the fixed navbar, the headerHeader The header of your site is typically the first thing people will experience. The masthead or header art located across the top of your page is part of the look and feel of your website. It can influence a visitor’s opinion about your content and you/ your organization’s brand. It may also look different on different screen sizes. image I hackedhacked /inserted into the masthead overlays and hangs below the bar. I know I can turn this behavior off by commenting out the JSJS JavaScript, a web scripting language typically executed in the browser. Often used for advanced user interfaces and behaviors. but it may be an example of a use case that your more dive-into-the-code users will encounter. (I wanted that image to scale, which is why I inserted it as I have…)

Other notes: I couldn’t get the JetPack carousel to work with the gallery post format as it does on the demo. Not sure if I just missed a step or if it’s not hooked into the theme correctly.

The Status post format looks odd with an image floated left on the post… I nixed the background dotted line, but the Genericon (or whatever is producing the horizontal bar glyph in place of the title) is kind of distracting, too.

Here’s the link: http://lisafirke.com/blog

Looking forward to rolling out the finished version with much fanfare…

  - Lance Willett 5:29 pm on April 16, 2013
    
    Lisa: can you give more info on the Jetpack Carousel issues you had? I couldn’t repeat—seems to be working normally with all the various “types” of galleries in Jetpack.
    - lisafirke 9:12 pm on April 16, 2013
      
      See my notes below. I think it’s a jquery/Jetpack glitch of some kind, because others are reporting similar issues with Jetpack.
      
      The main thing is, with Jetpack enabled, I’m still not seeing any formatting options for the carousel–I only have the ability to toggle from slideshow to grid on a gallery post.
      - Jeremy Herve 10:29 am on April 17, 2013
        
        You’re probably right. We know of some conflicts between jQuery 1.9.1 and Jetpack Carousel, and we”ll get this fixed before 3.6 ships.
        
        See this ticket for more details about the conflictconflict A conflict occurs when a patch changes code that was modified after the patch was created. These patches are considered stale, and will require a refresh of the changes before it can be applied, or the conflicts will need to be resolved..
- Lance Willett 4:40 pm on April 16, 2013
  Hi again Lisa, to get rid of the horizontal bar glyph for Status posts, look for:
```
.format-status .entry-content p:first-child:before
```
  And either change or comment it out in your child themeChild theme A Child Theme is a customized theme based upon a Parent Theme.

  lisa was there a specific browser that you were having trouble with the JetPack carousel?

  I’m thinking the problem lies with Jetpack and not with TwentyThirteen?

    I disabled my test, so don’t bother clicking through. Only the background color and exif field data items are getting displayed as configuration options–and in the media ui no choice of carousels or any other configurables beyond “slideshow” versus “grid”.

  Thanks, triaged 3 of the unresolved ones (1 was not related to Thirteen specifically).
  - Ipstenu (Mika Epstein) 9:58 pm on April 16, 2013
    
    Shirley 🙂 Is there a good way to report them or flag them for you? I don’t know enough about what is and isn’t a theme decision (seriously, I hate debugging themes!) to feel comfortable raising tickets.
    
    Also if you’re not a forum mod, I’ll make you one so you can resolve those posts too 😉
    - Lance Willett 10:02 pm on April 16, 2013
      
      To flag, please use tagtag A directory in Subversion. WordPress uses tags to store a single snapshot of a version (3.6, 3.6.1, etc.), the common convention of tags in version control systems. (Not to be confused with post tags.) twentythirteen and I’ll follow that tag feed.

As discussed yesterday during office hours, I tested 2013 against Jetpack Trunktrunk A directory in Subversion containing the latest development code in preparation for the next major release cycle. If you are running "trunk", then you are on the latest revision., and found 2 issues, that we will have to fix in Jetpack before 2013 is released.

- #1698-plugins
Infinite Scroll seems to work fine, whether you use footer widgets or not. All widgets seem to be displayed properly, although I haven’t tested in IE.

No problems with post formats either. There were some conflicts between Jetpack Shortcodes and the new Audio shortcodeShortcode A shortcode is a placeholder used within a WordPress post, page, or widget to insert a form or function generated by a plugin in a specific location on your site., but it was fixed in r696694-plugins.
