I just had a problem with a client who had a lot of plugins installed and when my theme was activated, only a white screen appeared both in admin and frontend. I figured out that one of the plugins had the same function name what I used in the theme.

So…

Tip #1: always create your PHP functions with an own prefix like this:

function my_custom_dashboard_themeprince(){ ... }

Tip #2: For debugging errors like this in WP, add the following lines to wp-config.php:

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true); @ini_set(‘display_errors’,’On’);

Deactivate all plugins, activate the theme and start activating plugins 1-by-1 untill the error appears.

BTW it’s just a plain white page with a logo and a text below that.

laranz: because often they even don’t read the included documentation, just upload the whole downloaded ZIP file in wordpress admin!

Thanks for sharing, I’ll include this link in all my future documentations.

The new Batman trailer is rather disappointing.

I’m in!

I don’t want to bloat my themes with unnecessary code/features, that my clients don’t actually need, just to get a higher price on my items. That would totally and utterly suck.

Well, I don’t want to add 5 zillion features to make my template look “good enough” near the huge mass of other templates with the same price because they have 5 zillion features. A template price must reflect his features, at least by the number of utilities it has. Like, hm, multi-preseted templates… must be priced more.
At this moment there is like a race of how many things you can fit in a template for the same price. That makes simple templates look a little pale if they don’t come with tons of stuff, even they have an original design or something really different.

They need to make a price judging by the widget/plugin number the come with, number of default presets, number of options, number of bonus sub templates, etc…

Wickedly well said!
