Inevitably, there were bugs; inevitably, helpful people found them. So here’s version 1.0.1, with a little more support for common plugins, and some bug fixes. We’ve also added the option to centre the theme, as you can see. A more detailed list is available in the changelog.
To update your version of Tarski, delete all the files in your Tarski directory and upload the new ones (or alternatively, just overwrite the old ones with the new ones).
Update: Whoops, missed one little thing. If you already downloaded Tarski 1.0.1 and don’t want to use the Subscribe to Comments plugin, we’ve updated comments.php a tiny bit to fix a bug. Sorry!
Also, if you’re installing plugins, please do check our recommended plugins page for our suggested settings. Some of them come with less-than-optimal default settings.

Billy, if you’d paid money for this theme then maybe your comments would be justified. But you haven’t, so maybe you ought to cool down a little or work on your tact.

BillyG, I tested the code I provided on our development site before posting it here. As with the UTW plugin, I’m not sure why the same code is doing different things on your server.
We appreciate bug reports, and “what you got for pointing out an error in an Open Source project” was thanks. All I said was that we’ve been spending a lot of time helping you modify your installation when you might be better served by experimenting on your own a bit.
Neither of us believe ourselves to be “the man” for releasing Tarski. If you’re dissatisfied with Tarski, we encourage you to switch to another theme. In fact, K2 has the same comments-in-sidebar functionality that Tarski does, if you’d like to try it out. As our credits page says, we based a lot of this theme’s functionality on theirs.
Speaking of credits, I’d say it is telling that you’d removed the “Powered by WordPress and Tarski” text from your theme even before you got pissed off at us and started calling us nasty names.

Screw you Eric and anybody else that says some stupid crap, he started it.
All I did was ask a question, and my code was already in the places he suggested which didn’t work, hence I finally came here for this crap.
All good, I got work to do.
-
Billy, when you said “I guess beggars can’t be choosers” did you really mean “I guess beggars can’t be choosers unless they’re me“? Because nobody started anything except for you. Chris said he can’t hold your hand; big deal. That’s not an insult, that’s simple fact. This is a theme, provided for free, that’s taken a lot of time to create, time that you apparently think nothing of.
Take a day off of ‘work’ or something. Good lord.
-
BillyG, if you have an anger management problem might I suggest you take it elsewhere?
I find it ironic that on the one hand you label the two guys who spent their free time developing a theme for no profit or personal gain whatsoever “assholes”, on the other hand you cuss and flame in nearly every post. I quote: Go back to work faggot lol.
Seriously, what are you, eight? Who the hell even writes like that?
The fact that Tarski seems to work for everyone else besides you seems to indicate that it is you who screwed up. Maybe you should fiddle with your settings and find out what you did that makes this thing not work for you rather than insulting everyone. But that would involve being the bigger man and acting according to what I can only hope is your real age, and for some reason I don’t see that happening.
In fact, I’m fairly sure your next post will prove me right. -
I’m extremely new to all of this. I have images associated with some of my links on my sidebar. They appear just fine with the general WordPress themes but do not appear when I use this one. Is there something I need to do to this theme to make it work?
-
I can’t seem to unsubscribe from the comments update emails on here.. I get a 403 error I I really don’t need anymore of billyg’s comments in my inbox.
Thanks for you help and your great theme! -
Sorry about that, ricky—looks like someone forgot to put the subscription manager file into the WP root. I’ve fixed it and removed your subscription to this entry.
Vee: do you think you could explain your problem in more detail, and maybe provide a link to your site?
-
That “someone” ionfish is talking about would be me. ;-) Sorry, ricky!
@ Vee:
Change line #25 of sidebar.php from:
<?php get_linksbyname($link_cat->cat_name, '<li>', '</li>', ' ', false, 'name', false, false, -1, false); ?>to:
<?php get_linksbyname($link_cat->cat_name, '<li>', '</li>', ' ', true, 'name', false, false, -1, false); ?>That should do the trick, let me know if it works.
-
It did the trick! Thanks!
-
Thanks for Tarski…
-
A new convert!

First off, thanks for the great work. :)
And here’s why I’m leaving a comment here: I found that the theme doesn’t have , , and in header.php, sidebar.php, and footer.php respectively. I had a plugin (Brian’s Threaded Comments) error because of the lack of the above tags (specifically, the plugin wouldn’t alter the comments db table as it should because of the lack of the trigger wp_head() in the template.) I added the above tags manually to appropriate places, but I thought you may want to consider this when you come up with a new upgrade.
-
Oops. the php tags I left in the above comment were all gone. so here are the functions I mentioned (and were deleted in the above comments): wp_head() in header.php, wp_meta() in sidebar.php (although the meta info is in the navigation line and footer in your theme), and wp_footer() in footer.php. Hope this helps for your debugging.
-
Thanks for pointing that out; we’ll address that in the next release. :)
-
That’s a great theme. Thanks. Though after installing it I’ve got the message below. I have tried other themes and they all work fine. Thanks a lot.
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE `meta_key` = 'wp_user_level' AND `meta_value` > 1' at lin]

I forgot to say I’m using WordPress 1.5.2
-
That’s likely your problem, then. Tarski is a Wordpress 2.0+ theme.

This is a very nice theme! However, I would like to modify it so that only the frontpage has a sidebar – any other part of my site should use the full width of the theme. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks.
-
Go into
single.phpandpage.phpand remove the line<?php get_sidebar(); ?>.Then go into
index.phpand change the line<?php get_sidebar(); ?>to<?php if (is_home()) { get_sidebar(); } ?>.That will remove the sidebar for any part of the site which isn’t the front page. However, in order to make the theme use the full width (720px, rather than 500px) you’ll have to change some other stuff. The easiest way to do that would probably be to go into
loop.phpand change the line<div id="primary">to<div<?php if (is_home()) { ?> id="primary"<?php } ?>>. -
Thank you! I will try it as soon as I can.
-
OK – sorry to bother you again. But I still have the sidebar on my Tags page.
And the full width is used only when I view a single post.
Is it possible to use the full width for About, Tags and Archives as well?
Thank you.
-
Yeah, quite possible. It’s just a matter of applying the same principles as I’ve already outlined. For
tags.php, remove the line<div id="primary">(that’s on line 6), and the closing tag</div>on line 31. Inpage.php, do exactly the same thing (the opening tag is on line 2, and the closing tag is on line 16).The archives page,
archives.php, is a little more complex, because the second column is intended to be used for the categories list. However, if you’re using the Clean Archives plugin or whatever, and don’t want or need the categories list, here’s what you do…Delete lines 10 and 18 (
<div id="primary">), and lines 16 and 24 (</div>). Then delete everything on and between lines 26 and 33, from and including<div id="secondary">to</div>. That should nail all of it. -
By the by, for anyone contemplating doing all the work I’ve detailed above to remove the sidebar, you’d probably be much better off just downloading the latest version, 1.1, and checking the “Only display the sidebar on the home page” option in the Tarski options panel.
