Brunelleschi Changelog
Brunelleschi’s change log will now be available here. Now you can see full development and progress of the Brunelleschi Theme, along with links to previous versions and tons of other useful links!
Description
Brunelleschi, a modern WordPress theme with an emphasis on Flexibility. Inspired by Filippo Brunelleschi, the renaissance architect. Brunelleschi includes a full HTML5 Implementation and lots of tricks from the HTML5 Boilerplate.
My favorite thing about this theme is the implementation of the 1140 grid. Try resizing it! This theme resizes beautifully and looks good on any size monitor or mobile device without sacrificing the overall design. I’ve done a little work on the typography as well.
Available in Belarusian, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish!
Download Brunelleschi 1.5.8
I’ve closed comments on this post, if you have a question/bug/comment check out the Brunelleschi Support Forum. Brunelleschi now has about 60,000 downloads, and I’m just a one man team, so handling all the support issues here isn’t very effective. I think a forum is a way better way to get issues and bugs fixed.
Update
Hi Kit,
Is there a way to change the header font size at the top of the site? I cannot figure it out!
Thanks!!!
Hi Liss,
You can change the size of the header by adding some code to the Custom CSS box under Appearance > Brunelleschi Options:
#site-title { font-size: 40px; }Just replace
40with the size you want!Looks like the IE issues have been resolved! Thank you!!!
Hi Kit,
I really like you theme and I customized it for my website (http://www.tomdesair.com) using a child theme like you explained in your other post. There was only one feature I couldn’t accomplish with the child theme. I wanted to add breadcrumbs below the header image (take a look at it on my site). There for I added an action hook in the theme’s header.php :
Now I can easily add the breadcrumbs through my child theme. Can you add this action hook (and others) to the main Brunelleschi theme?
Thank you very much for the theme!
Greetings,
Tom
Hi Tom, that sound’s sweet. I’m not able to see the code you posted. I think wordpress stripped the
>and<tags. Try reposting by replacing them with>and<Second try:
The code I add in the header.php file of the main theme is:
>/header<>!-- #header --<
>?php do_action('brunelleschi_belowheader'); ?<
In the functions.php file of my child theme, I only have to write this:
.
function add_breadcrums()
{
if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) {
yoast_breadcrumb('>div id="breadcrumbs"<','>/div<');
};
}
add_action( 'brunelleschi_belowheader', 'add_breadcrums' );
to add the breadcrumbs of the Yoast plugin
I think I mixed up
>and<, but I think you get the pointI’m grateful for this theme and asking for help on one small detail. On this page (and all pages on my website) I would like to remove the little line above the title Orchid and have the title move up under the navbar http://www.michellemettler.com/services/flowers/the-orchid/
If you can just point me in the right direction, so I don’t end up screwing up the whole theme I would be grateful. Love.
Hi Michelle,
Try adding this to the Custom CSS box under Appearance > Brunelleschi Options:
article.page { border-top: none; padding-top: 0px; margin-top: -16px; }I love it! Thank you so much! <3
woohoo! thanks!
I would like to change the color, size and font of the widget tittles (only the titles).
Also, how can eliminate the name of the site that appears automatically on the left side below the footer?
Try this custom CSS :
#site-info a {display:none;}
It did not work…
Worked for me!
Thank you. It worked the second time.
Hi Kit
Great theme, I looked long and hard before stumbling upon your Gem was just the style I was after and lots of customization options.
http://duncanpenfoldphotography.co.uk/
I would however like at some point to change the height of the Slider box so I can show off my best photography, is this possible or would I have to install an alternative featured content slider plugin. and if so do you have any recommendations.
Best Wishes

Hi-
Great theme! How would I go about resizing the banner height so that I can use my image without having to crop it. The image I want to use is 960wide and 150high.
Best,
Dana
Hello!
I love this theme. I have tried several others while starting up my blog and have found none better.
But there is one thing I really need explained, as I’m a newbie:
How to resize the header image? I love the width, it’s perfect, it’s just the height I need bigger. I have tried going into style.css and functions.php and changing the 196px to 296px. But all I have to show for my work is being able to upload a picture at 296px, but it doesn’t show that large on my blog at all, but defaults back to 196.
The size is a little important because I have custom art I drew to fit in that header.
Please help!
Thank You
((PS. If it’s CSS related can you give me the code I need to input, I’m rather dumb when it comes to that stuff.))
Hi Kit,
I’d like to replace the Archives list in the right column with a tag cloud graphic. Ideas?
Also, how do I go about putting affiliate ads (e.g., Amazon) in the right column?
Thanks!
Christopher:
Have you tried using the ‘Arbitrary Text’ widget for the Amazon affiliate’s code? Try dropping the code on the text area of the widget and a title and put it on the column of your choice.
Hallo Kit,
first of all thanks for your grea theme. Held that I am abolutely newby I would like to inser a logo in the left and side of the page. What I mean is that I would like insert the logo just aside (left) the site title. Is it possible?
Thanks
Thank you for the beautiful theme! I want to adjust the line between the posts and was trying to figure out how to do that. I didn’t see any other comments with this information and hopefully this isn’t a duplicate question, but I was hoping you could help me out.
Hey Kit,
I understand that the problems with IE browsers (especially IE 7) is fixed in the new 1.5.6?
I have problems with most IE browsers, except the newest IE browsers, like missing content and pictures.
My current version 1.4.8. Is it possible to update to the newest version without affecting my custom css and php changes and all the content on my website?
Thank you, I love your theme!
Kinds regards, Emil
Hi Kit,
First off I’m incredibly impressed with your theme and also at how you reply to everyone’s requests – very professional and thanks for providing such good support.
I’m pretty new with WordPress and so not super good with .php. I was wondering if you’d be able to assist me in modifying the theme to just what I’m after – the site is http://www.annacopeland.com. I have 3 queries:
1. I would like to remove the grey line under the banner on the homepage – I have removed this on the other pages with some code you issued in this thread but it did not remove the home page line.
2. I would like to change the word ‘home’ int he navigation to ‘livestock’ – I downloaded your plugin ‘change-home-to-blog/change-home-to-blog.php’ and edited the word ‘blog’ to ‘livestock’ but this did not alter anything – nor did the word home change initially to blog on install.
3. I would like to remove the ‘Leave a reply’ heading and box from all pages.
Many thanks for your time – it’s most appreciated!
Phil
Hallo Kit,
Still it is me the new newby. Do you know how i can translate some parts ofthe site in italian? I.e. I would like traslate at the bottom of every page the sentence leave a message.. in Italian. I would appreciate a lot
Thanks,
Luigi
How can i change the color of a selected text?
Is this possible? Pls advise.
Hi again,
Is there any way I can delete the uploaded header images? I want to show random images on each page but I want to get rid of the 6 images I previously uploaded and replace them with another 6.
Many thanks,
VV
Sorry – found it in media! Deleted the files from there. (Every time I have an issue I search as hard as possible to find the solution and post here as a last resort but somehow straight after I post I find the answer!!)
Hi there, instead of the page title at the top of the blog, I want to have an image – how do I do this?

Id like to reduce the white space under the menu to 8px – how do i do this?

Version 1.5.6 is un-usable – at least for me.
I just upgraded from 1.5.5, and 1.5.6 causes major formatting problems in Safari 5.14, Firefox 11, Chrome 17, and Opera 11.61 – all up-to-date as of this writing. (My system: Mac Pro 8-core, 16 GB RAM, Mac OS 10.6.8); these problems also occur in Firefox 10 and IE 8 on Windows XP.
I’m using a child theme of Brunelleschi, which includes some CSS modifications and a functions.php file to change the height of the header image. For the purposes of this post, I’m assuming these changes aren’t causing the problems – they were all done according to instructions from Kit.
Version 1.5.5 did hot have these problems on any of the above configurations, or in Explorer 9 or Firefox 10 in Windows 7.
However, 1.5.5 and earlier versions caused IE8 on Windows XP to crash before the page loaded – a serious problem given that according to the browser statistics at w3schools.com, IE8 is the most widely used version of IE, with nearly double the users of IE 9. (I don’t have a Windows machine, but the problem reports are from reliable sources.)
None of these problems occur with the default Twenty Eleven theme, or the Coraline theme.
The formatting problems include the following: The drop down menus don’t appear as menus at all – each menu item appears in a long thin rectangle, and there’s no sidebar – the sidebar content is at the bottom of the page above the footer. The formatting of ‘proudly powered by WordPress’ is gone – it’s just plain default text, left-justified, directly under the site name/home page link.
Also: there appears to be a significant javascript problem in this theme, which occurred in 1.5.5 and earlier versions (I jumped in around version 1.5): I have an audio player on my site with a volume slider which pops up upon hover. As you move the cursor close to the slider’s handle, the handle jiggles and jumps down toward the cursor before you’ve actually clicked on it – which makes it harder to use. This does not happen with the Twenty Eleven or Coraline themes – the slider operates smoothly and the handle does not move until you click on it.
I may have to switch to another theme, which would be disappointing since I spent a lot of time customizing Brunelleschi. But even 1.5.5 was a deal-breaker due to incompatibility with IE8. I’ll just chalk it up to the learning curve.
Hopefully these problems can be resolved soon. Please let me know if you need more info to troubleshoot.
Hi there! We love your theme, but are having some trouble removing the thin line at the bottom of the nav bar. We’re not sure where to locate it in the code in order to remove it. (Our site is http://www.hkinlove.com if you need it for reference). Thank you!
We actually just figured out where it was. The line we were talking about was not technically the bottom of the nav bar, but the top of each entry. We just changed it to having a line at the bottom of each entry instead, so we would maintain the spacing between posts.
Thanks!
could you please tell me how you did that?thnx
Hi there, Im having real trouble viewing the blog on a mobile device such as an iPad / iPhone. It doesn’t show the whole width and I don’t really ant to use a child theme. Is there a specific portion of any of the files I can edit so it can display the full page on a mobile device?
Newbie here. Love the template, very beautiful!
A few questions..
How do I get rid of the ‘comments closed’ comment that persists even when the comments are disabled.
How can I reorder the items in the main nav. bar. They’re in alphabetical order which makes no sense.
I’d like visitors to first land at something other than a blog post.. either a static page or a permanently stuck first post. How do I do that?
Thanks for any help!
Love your theme but when I add a sidebar adsense skyscraper with the text widget, the ad does not show on the main page of the theme. It displays the ad when a single post is selected but I don’t understand why it does not show on the main page.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi does the theme have drop down menu settings?
This is under Appearance > Menus.
Sorry, I figured it out. Google only allows three ads per page and since there were more than three because I had the number of posts set to 3 on the main page the forth ad (skyscraper) was not displayed. As soon as I made the number of posts on the first page 2, all is displayed OK.
All good now.
Thanks
Hi, I have few questions.. Is there a way to make my header and navigation bar fixed, so when I scroll down they are always on the top of the screen? If that isn’t possible do you maybe know a widget, that will work with your theme, for navigation bar to place it on the left or right screen, also fixed?
One more thing, author of the post, date and tags are uppercase, can i make them lowercase?
Absolutely love the theme
Hi there! I really like your theme! It’s simple and clean. I have a problem with “read more” links in posts. Now, when I click “read next”, the whole post appears, but other posts on the same page (menu) disappears. I would like to stay on the same page as I click on “read more” link and continue reading other posts on the same page. How can I do that?
Thx
Hallo,
Two months ago I installed wordpress-theme “Bruneschelli”. Unfortunatly the archive-box in the sidebar doesn’t work exactly. How can I correct this mistake?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best regards from Vienna, Austria.

Is it good to go to upgrade my WordPress version whenever there’s a new release or could there be a problem with the theme? I’d like to keep up to date with both WordPress and my plugins but don’t want to loose any progress done with the layout on this theme.
I was still having trouble with your version 1.5.6 theme on IE8 and found this, which seems to have worked. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-brunelleschi-version-155-causes-ie-8-crash. Just thought you might like to know so you can update response.js and modernizr.js.
I wanted to see how I can hide the page title in the body of some of the pages.
Hi there, I really need help with the mobile display of our blog which uses Brunelleschi. I don’t want to use a child theme, is there a way to make it display fully in mobile devices?
Hi Kit,
Love Brunelleschi!
Just wondering if there is a way that you can change the font of the main menu/navigation bar?
(We are hiding it at the moment as we can’t see a way to edit it)
Thanks so much!
Hi there –
Thanks again for all the help you give us! Just updated to the newest version (1.5.5) and everything still works. Just one thing I noticed that I’d like to change is the list of tags at the bottom of posts are now in all CAPS. I’d like them to be lowercase, if possible. I’ve done a scroll through the various code templates but nothing was jumping out at me.

Thank you so much!

Hi Kit, Love this beautiful theme!
I’d like to display the total number of comments next to the post title. Perhaps something like the comment bubble on the Twenty Eleven theme. Or like I’ve seen on the Standard theme like this site: http://michaelhyatt.com/
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Michael
Hi – I am also having crashing problems with Internet Explorer 8 despite upgrading to the latest version of this theme (1.5.6) It works fine in Firefox and Safari – looks great on the iPad too. Any news as to a fix fro this bug?
Many thanks
