May I ask why we are calling so many javascripts with this theme? Can I get rid of any of them?


I am running the them heavily modded at http://www.atomicpopcorn.net


Let me know as four scripts alone for this theme is too many in my opinion.

I also have a question on how to fix the text squash issue seen in the heading of the post title here

1. Most of the scripts is related to plug-ins (Like: Post-thumb, flv-embed, Adsense) and of course WordPress standard JS libraries (Jquery). You can get rid of them, but then you loose a lot functionality.

2. Try to put

  line-height: 18px;

into your

#content .entry h5

style. You can lower or raise the value.

The answer to my second question was perfect thanks a bunch.


As for the jquery, it is a slow loader to say the least. I will try and cut down on my plugins and see how that goes. Overall the site is loading okay for me but it seems excessive to load as many js as I have on the site.


Just trying to get the user experience down to a science is all lol

I would recommend using a caching solution if your experiencing slowdowns.

I use: 1-Blog-Cacher that i think is the easiest to use (click, there it is!).


Other plug-ins that could help is:

WP Super Cache (Doing the same thing as 1-Blog Cacher), WP JS (A plug-in that optimizies JS files into a single file on the client end. Don't know if it works with WP 2.7.x).

Thanks for all the help. Wp-Super Cache doesn't really play well with my server for some reason.


So 1 blog cacher is up and running and I am good to go.


Thanks much!!

It will take a while for 1 blog cacher to cache files. And oh. When you adding new functions and gizmos to your blog (e.g new plug-ins) , deactivate and clean the cache and active again when you are done. If not, the server is not pickning up the new content.

Thanks for your help Chris – one last question I have and I know its more than just this theme but look at http://www.atomicpopcorn.net/c…..ovie-news/ and let me know how to get rid of the captio text.


I have figured it out via CSS on the main page and in the sidebar but I can't figure it out here on these pages.


Any help would be great.


Here is the CSS I currently have.


#archivebox .wp-caption,#top_article .wp-caption,#sidebar .wp-caption,#content .wp-caption,#content .entry .tabberlive .tabbertabhide,#content .entry .tabberlive .tabbertab h2,#content .entry .tabberlive .tabbertab h3 {
display:none;
}

I'm not seeing any caption text in the address you gave, but if you're looking to not have captions on your images, then simply do not define a caption on the image when uploading/inserting it to your post from the media gallery.

Your blog is looking quite nice by the way.
