Is there any plan to use this incoproated into your awesome Sca4ered theme ? I think it would be a great idea because I, like many like using your theme

Yeah, I could put a conditional statement that if you use inline asides that the rolling archives would show. But I'm not sure how I would go about doing that, I'll look into it. I'd probably have to bundle the plugin.

You should probably double check the licenses on the plugins you're bundling, since there may be some that have specific conditions regarding their deployment.

Dan, so have you made yourself a custom plug-in or is it hardcoded into the theme ?
Ok - slightly off topic (sorry) : Whenever I initiate the Gravatars plugin for my site, for some reason my personal icon shows up for everyone… even if they have their own icon.. together the gravatar is mass (you can have a look at for example in this entry : http://doyougetme.net/live/2006/02/windows-vist...)
Can you please; if that is ok with you, show me how you got yours to work.
Many thanks

Just a bit more info - please feel free to delete these comments if I am abusing it.
but if i remove this URL then i cant have ANY gravatar showing up at all. How can set it up so that only the respective gravatar show up to the correct email address and not mine to everyone.

Looks like you modified the gravatar function, I didn't.
I made a custom plugin, I'll wait a little until the plugin develops a little before I release my version.
JAred: I'll look into it but it shouldn't be a problem since it's for the K2 community and that whom it was released for.

I'm sure it's probably fine (in terms of bundling them), but there may be specific license terms that you have to abide by, in terms of making it clear where you got the components from, crediting the original authors, etc. This is especially true if any of the plugin authors are using licenses like Creative Commons.
Also, in most cases, there are conditions regarding how you can redistribute it that you not only have to abide by yourself, but also have to make clear to anyone who may use your derivative's works, because those terms can carry through as part of the license agreement and apply to your end users as well.

Yeah, and I said I'll look into it.
Thanks.

We are all good, it's share-alike.

I'm not trying to make a big deal out of it, but that was exactly my point. Assuming that you're referring to Creative Commons' "Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike" license, that license requires you to distribute any work based on it under the same license. Your theme (in the stylesheet) currently specifies the GPL, which does have some differences from the share-alike license.

Wait, I don't get your point the plugin is separate right now. If I do bundle it, it would be a separate plugin with it's own licence. Even if I plan to zip them together, which most likely won't be the case, that still does not mean they fall under the same L.A..
I see your point though and the main reason I'm not concerned right now is because I've been following the plugin and K2 from the beginning and I know they both don't mind, and it's most likely a case of putting the wrong licence in the plugin since the code was made by Michael and then release in the forums where Zeo made the plugin. It's a soap opera, I know but I not worried about the terms of distribution for these plugins and K2 but I will worry about any others that I don't follow so closely.

I know it's probably no big deal, but it's kind of a pet peeve of mine: it seems like a lot of people are using various licenses for their products without really knowing or caring what they mean, in which case I don't get the point of specifying a license, other than they saw other people do it and felt like they should.
For some reason I thought that you had other plugins bundled besides this one, but I never really looked at it so I should probably just shut up.
Technically if you are including them in your download (either pre-installed or in separately zipped files) you are redistributing them and the licenses apply. No one will ever say anything about it, probably, but I just like pointing out stuff like that every now and then.

No I haven't bundled an plugins in this theme, only a really old one that I used one of your plugins.
I don't think that licences transcend to other plugins or themes just because they are distributed together if each one specifies a separate licence in the code itself.

Yes, they do, because you are distributing them as a part of your theme, therefore making it a derivative work. Perhaps if the theme would run without modification you could get around that part of it, but you would still be redistributing their plugin, which would fall under the terms of the license.

The previous comment should say "if the theme would run without modification if they were missing the plugin.... then it might not be a derivative work"
Dan

Fine then, you proved your point, I really don't care that much.

Me neither. :)

I like this and the work you've done on your site. Really clean and logical. Nice yes.

Under the gravatars options I have set the 'Default' to my one : http://gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id=5418...
but if i remove this URL then i cant have ANY gravatar showing up at all. How can set it up so that only the respective gravatar show up to the correct email address and not mine to everyone.
