About LemonTwist:
Originally designed as a theme for Wordpress by
Chris Murphy, LemonTwist is now a free Pligg template released by Yankidank. The template is currently being developed for the next Pligg version (9.9.6). LemonTwist currently is designed to work with Pligg SVN revision 66 current as of August 29, 2008. Please DO NOT redistribute this template or any variation of it without getting my permission first.

For those who want to use a logo image with their site rather than a text name in the top left corner, please download the logo file attached to this thread. It contains a .psd file for the logo image, you should then read NOTES.txt for more information about how to use it.

NEW: When submitting a story, this template will help users choose tag keywords through an ajax auto-complete script. This script pulls keywords from a dictionary file stored at /templates/lemontwist/js/tag_data.js.

Differences from Yget:
LemonTwist does not fully support the five star voting method. I decided that it's not something I was interested in writing extra code to add in since very few Pliggers make use of voting method 2.
This template also doesn't display a sidebar on the Live and Submit pages. Instead it widens the content area to focus the user on the more important data (for the submit page) and give enough room for large amounts of data (in the case of Live). I also removed the sidebar recent comments list because I didn't find it to be very useful, but it shouldn't be too hard for a novice user to add it back in.

Version:
The current version is 0.005b.
Version numbers will be updated with each SVN revision commit that modifies this template.
To receive the most up to date version of this template please download it from the Pligg SVN under the /templates directory (not /trunk/templates).
It's brand new and still needs a couple final fixes (see below bug list), but I consider this template to be quite stable. I should have a rock solid version of this template ready for inclusion with 9.9.6.

If you want to run this with Pligg 9.9.5 you should take note of the following:

If you would like to contribute some help I would be glad to have the assistance. I would also greatly appreciate a donation using the Chipin widget associated with this forum thread. I invested a lot of time developing this template and I could use the money to help support me creating more free templates.

Known bugs:
  • Check page management, currently submission isn't redirecting to anything
  • Vote doesn't change to "voted" with ajax vote. Requires page refresh.
Support:
Limited support will be offered from myself once I finish this template. If enough users begin using this template I will create a new forum for bug reports and help requests.
Please check the README.txt and NOTES.txt files for more information about the LemonTwist template.

If you like this template you might also like:These templates take me a few solid days of work to complete, so please donate if you use this template. Otherwise I won't be able to continue producing more free Pligg templates.

This is a really cool release Yankidank. It shows a more 'out of the box' thinking in terms of design. Hopefully inspiring other Pligg users of what is possible.

Updated template to version 0.003. This template is nearly bug free at this point. There are only two small bug-like issues that aren't very high priority. Since it is now considered a stable template I am removing my warning not to use it on public sites.
