Rebekah, unfortunately no, none that I support. There are some sites out there that seem to auto-convert WP themes to Blogger, but the results seem unreliable.

Just a question … there isn’t any Ahimsa for Blogger, is there?

I like it so much, and would like to use it for my other blog too.

Hi Ravi;
I don’t know about mobi, but one the reasons I love the layout [of the more or less 50-65 total reasons] is because of the reply being obviously accessible. The people I’m [re]doing a blog for, need the simplest and most obvious possible navigation, and this certainly suits this situation. I saw another plugin for a reply, but yours is quite sophisticated and very cool. They keep asking me to simplify the blog I’d put up [basic WP layout, a couple of simple plugins], then took off the menu [at their request to take the blog down, I knew they'd change their minds]and now they want it up again. I looked at both the theme code and your code and can see you have it very personalised so that the ‘Leave a Reply’ box appears under the related comment/reply, whereas, for instance, the ‘Comment Toolbar’ plugin moves [anchors] you to the normal “leave a Reply’. Yours is FAR Superior.

I may be able to actualize it if it’s possible for you to tell me what the inclusions are in the ‘href=’ of the ‘postmetadata replybuttonbox’ div. If that’s not possible, could you recommend any plugin that does about the same thing? If you can’t, I’ll use the ‘Comment Toolbar’and play around with it on my own test site.

Thanks for all your Great work and kind generosity.
Dale

Hi Ravi

Love your theme – only thing is my pages don’t seem to be appearing on the home screen.

I have set up different pages within the WordPress structure, but I can’t see them visible on the homepage.

Can you advise or am I doing something stupid?

Thanks

Thanks so much! I love your theme. I’m using it on two of my sites already.

This theme is seriously awesome. So awesome, I have to shorten my comment to ’srsly awesome’.

First of all, congrats for your work. This theme is awesome. I’ve been using it for some months now and just recently I noticed that the sidebar widgets got the initial line overlapped with its title.
You can see it at http://es42.es

It seems to be related to a malfunctioning style. The free text widget work great if I select the \paragraph\ option within Wordpress so it gets a before it starts. But the rest of the widgets don’t get that and they appear a bit garbled. Other than that, this theme has proved to survive pretty well despite numerous wordpress updates.

Mindy you are most welcome. I was able to reproduce, though not consistently, the text overlay behaviour. Seems to happen only in Safari … very strange, and I have added a TODO to try to fix it. The header image in your blog is not unique, others use a header image as well. I need to find out why my theme gets confused by it (and renders the post content narrower than it should). That’s another TODO ;-).

Nakke, indeed this has been brought up and one of you (my super-smart user community) has also figured out the fix (I need to find his name so I can credit him with the fix!). It will be rolled out today or tomorrow. So please stay tuned to the blog or Twitter feed.
