CommentPress

Development

More coming soon...

The important files
commentpress/javascript/frivolous.js - The javascript that allows for all the magic that happens in CommentPress around reading and writing comments, indicating active paragraphs, and other niftyness throughout the theme.
commentpress/functions.php - The PHP that handles installation and implements/extends Wordpress functions.
commentpress/comments.php - This file is the template for the comment box that is at the center of the CommentPress interaction. It has the code for the default state (including the "How to read/write a comment" text), and the code for reading and writing comments (in conjunction with frivolous.js).
commentpress/comments-by-user.php - This file lists each person who has contributed an approved comment, and the comments themselves. Included by commentpress/page.php
commentpress/comments-by-section.php - lists each section or post and the comments associated with that post, organized by date posted.

The style sheets
commentpress/reset.css Resets browser defaults so that every browser is on an equal playing field.
commentpress/master.css Basic styles for html tags, and the basic structural containers of the style (container, header, footer, page, sidebar)
commentpress/style.css Where most of the commentpress specific styles reside. It has all the classes for the styles we use in this theme.
commentpress/style_ie.css Any IE related styles necessary to bring it into line. So far, only one declaration necessary. We hope to eliminate this entirely.
commentpress/subthemes/blog/style.css Styles specific to the blog theme (only a few to manage differences on the front page)
commentpress/subthemes/document/style.css Styles specific to the document theme. Even fewer than the blog theme.

The subthemes
commentpress/document/*.* - These files are included by the CommentPress document subtheme. The document subtheme presents content as a unified document broken into sections. It is meant to be used for finite works - not ongoing works like a blog. That's next.
commentpress/blog/*.* - These files are included by the CommentPress blog subtheme. The blog subtheme present content as a blog.
