When scrolling to the bottom of the page, the page continues to 'bounce' if a users keeps scrolling.

My guess is this is caused by the JavaScript that controls the 'parallax' header image.

Dear Kopepasah,

Thank you for your work! I am really really loving the elegance of your theme, and its portability.

I think one can build on this portability, making it more friendly for desktop users, by making the menus slide from the side for wide screened configurations; as it currently stands, one has to move the mouse large distances to navigate, and this is inconvenient.

Actually what I would optimally like to do with my blog to modify your theme to have a symbolic button for each page on the left bellow the menu button. Hovering on a button will trigger a css animation to reveal the name of the page; this way both mobile and desktop users get an immediate and quick navigation options.

I would love to help if I can, but most of my experience is with CSS2 and so my PHP knowledge is lacking. I can, however, design graphical elements since I have years of experience with Adobe Illustrator (I am thinking of the buttons for example).

Cheers,
Matan

I am moving forward and switching solely to rems for spacing.

Hello there, I use your beautiful theme, but I have some issues (tested on Firefox and Chrome, Win8 x64)

If I scroll down, and open one of the menu-toggle (.main-navigation-toggle and .widget-area-toggle),
then I close that menu,
and then I scroll up again,
then the header image not shown correctly
please see attached images

This is normal view

This is after I scroll down, open and close menu, and then scroll up again

I was messing around with test posts and put an image in there (aligned left), and its alignment seems to go off the margins:

Translation template needs to be improved. The current template includes some HTML and code for the node modules. These need to be updated in the theme and removed from the template.

As of right now, Eighties does not have specific support for RTL languages. This support needs be added before launch.

Remove fallback for social navigation menu.

When I first started development of Eighties, I followed the strict guidelines of theme development for WordPress.com. One of the rules stated that scripts and stylesheets cannot be minified.

Now that Eighties is out in the wild, I think minification of these files is a must. Much like WordPress provides nothing

Goals

• Minify all JavaScript
• Minify all Stylesheets
• Provide easy method for users to use minified versions of files.
• Allow developers to turn off minification (for debugging).

The date for comments is not displaying properly. It is showing the post's date instead. Looks like the issue is in /inc/template-tags.php within the eighties_get_time_difference function. The first couple if/else statements call on get_the_date when they should probably call $previous_time->format instead. Hopefully someone can create a Pull Request with these changes and get it merged. But just wanted to share.

If a user is using a third party commenting tool, the comments have no max width

This script is still registered, but was ultimately removed and not used in the theme. The script is not causing any problems, as it is never enqueued, but should be removed.

Instead of using eighties_time_difference we should use human_time_diff within WordPress.

Perhaps we can use a combination of time difference and date once it is passes a few days or a week.

The description of the the theme in style.css should (roughly) match the description of the theme in readme.txt.

Although the page bounce problem has been addressed for most cases, when a page is very short, the bounce still exists.

Under them primary menu and search, I want to add a social navigation menu. This menu would allow users to add social links via the WordPress menu editor screen.

Switching between an "About Me" page and the homepage results in the user having to scroll past the header each time.

Perhaps make an anchor to the content that links can jump to?
Or optionally hide the header on some pages.

Even though draft posts are not included in the post stream of the home page, they are shown in the post navigation (previous/next post), on the bottom part of the post page.

Also, draft pages are listed in the main navigation.

When clicked, they both redirect to 404 page, correctly.
But shouldn't they be invisible in the first place?
Thanks a lot!

Not sure if this is a theme or WP issue. When creating external links without https://, they open with a prefix of the site I'm on.

e.g.
<a href="github.com/kopepasah/eighties/" target="_blank">test link</a>
Opens as http://eighties.me/github.com/kopepasah/eighties/

<a href="https://github.com/kopepasah/eighties/" target="_blank">test link</a>
Opens as https://github.com/kopepasah/eighties/

This is somewhat related to the #19 - the theme fonts use 'latin' script by default, which is missing certain glyphs required by other languages.

I worked around this issue by modifying the _font_url functions in functions.php:

$font_url = add_query_arg( array('family' => urlencode( 'Righteous' ), 'subset' => urlencode( 'latin-ext' ) ), "//fonts.googleapis.com/css" );

but it would be nice to be able to specify the character subset as an option in the theme settings, possibly via a set of check boxes or a dropdown list.

Instead of using the default header image for singular items, I'd like to add an option for users to choose to use the featured image as the header image.

It stays #fff!

Dear kopepasah,

I want to thank you for your fantastic work with Eighties in first place. It is fantastic.

I decided to use the theme and I uploaded a custom image for header with 1680x600 resolution. In my desktop looks great but if I try on my phone or laptop the header do not resize, so no one can see the photo properly because I am using a custom logo on it (i have the option "show text on header" unchecked).
All the rest is responsive and works great in mobile devices and different res.

You can see by yourself in http://www.malospelosbanda.com

Do you know a way to solve that? Are you thinking about solve it in future versions? I apologize if it sounded silly because my knowledge about php, css and all that stuff is nothing :)

Thanks in advance

You probably just moved the directory around at some point and didn't update the src URLs in font-awesome.css - but it's making those icons load as square boxes. Removing ../fonts/ from the URL should do the trick.

I think the title is descriptive enough.

The translations doesn't work if they follow the file naming model of eighties-de_DE.po/mo.
The prefix eighties- must be removed.

When a user hovers over a title, there is no visual indication that the title is linked. The title should show as the primary color on hover.

With the improvements of the editor, we need an editor style.

Working with SVN is not fun, so let's create a build task to handle the work for us.

When you have a header that populates the entire window, scrolling works just fine with the gradual transition of the header. However, if you Page Down from the top of the page, you end up skipping content because the jump is too far. This even happens on the eighties.me site.

Replicate: load the eighties.me homepage, and then Page Down instead of scrolling.

A icon in the social menu (using the mobile view) has no space at the right side
BEGIN ---- Icon END ("-" is Space)

When a post has no title, the home (blog), archive and search views, there is no permalink and users have no way of getting to that post.
