Important Notice - file location changes

There are some of you who use various scripts from this theme including:

recent-posts.js and tweetthis.js.

Those and related files have been moved to:

http://ruizfiles.appspot.com/stylesheets/tweetthis.css

http://ruizfiles.appspot.com/scripts/tweetthis.js

http://ruizfiles.appspot.com/scripts/recent-posts.js

Alternatively, you can download/copy these files and store them at the location of your choice.  This approach would make your site less dependent on my file store.

Sorry for the incovenience:(

New Version v2

The new version has a few new features…

1. You can adjust the color scheme using “Appearance” in Tumblr.

2. tweetthis and sharethis integration - to remove insert the following into “Custom CSS”
sharethis { display:none;}
tweetthis { display:none; }

3. You can easily set the Top Navigation Menu, FriendfeedId, DisqusId, Logo, FlickrFeed and more by simply updating the variables at the top of the theme source code.

<!-- Theme variables -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var FriendfeedId   = ""; //use your friendfeed id
var FriendfeedSvcs = "twitter";    //leave blank for all or twitter, tumblr etc
var FriendfeedNum  = 15;           //number of items to show

var DisqusId       = ""; //use your disqus Id for commenting

var Logo           = "";

var Navigation = { //this is the top navigation menu
"Archive":"/archive",
"About":"/tagged/about",
"Photos":"http://www.flickr.com/photos/martinruiz",
"Twitter":"http://twitter.com/martinruiz",
}

var FlickrfeedId   = ""; //leave blank if you don't want to show flickr photos
//goto idGettr.com to find the photo stream id
var FlickrfeedTitle= "Photos on Flickr";
var FlickrfeedNum  = 4;  //Number of photos to show
</script>

TweetThis for Tumblr

This is based and inspired by the TweetThis plugin for Wordpress.  Not to be outdone by WP, I put together a javascript version for Tumblr.  It’s “alpha” and only works with bit.ly.  It’s currently being used in this blog.

To use insert the following lines with the HTML header.

<!-- start tweetthis -->
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="http://mr.ruiz.googlepages.com/tweet-this.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mr.ruiz.googlepages.com/tweet-this.js"/></script>
<!-- start tweetthis -->


… and insert the following within the HTML body, preferably within {block:Posts}

<!-- start tweetthis -->
<p class="tweetthis">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
TWEETTHIS.addButton({
message:'{Title}',
longUrl:'{Permalink}',
}, {button:true} );
</script>
</p>
<!-- end tweetthis -->

The HTML tag can be a <div> or any other tag.  But you should use the “tweetthis” class.

Like I said, it’s early stage.  Let me know if you use it, so I can keep you in the loop for changes.

Experimenting with ShareThis

Notice the ShareThis button at the bottom of this post.  It allows you to share a post via your favorite social network or email.  Once I’ll include it in the theme once I’m done testing.

Tabs in sidebar?

I’ve put some Tab Navigation on my personal site. I use it to reduce potential clutter. Let me know if you would like me to add it to the theme…
