MonsieurPress

Hello, I'm MonsieurPress, a super cool, lightweight & simple WordPress starter theme for developpers

How am I ?

Hello developer ! I'm a WordPress starter theme, I'm not all naked and actualy the webpage you are in is me ! I'm very minimal & easy to understand, I use modern workflow like gulp, sass, and love. I'm not meant for being used as a parent theme, just adopt me and hack me ! Check my website to see how I look without modification.

Requirements

• A working WordPress installation

Go to your wordpress theme folder with your terminal, and type the following commands :

$ git clone https://github.com/dadipaq/monsieurpress.git [yourthemename]

I have some embeded gulp tasks that can be use for you workflow :

• gulp : Watch the scss directory and compile files to the style.css file
• gulp styles : Just compile the scss (no watching)

monsieurpress's Issues

FOUT for ajax webfont.js

How do you manage to clear the FOUT (Flash of unstyled text) -issue with the Typekit webfont loading script?
In my tests with Google Fonts it fetches the font-files almost 2-3 seconds later than the ordinary method supplied by GF.

Reading on the Typekit/webfontloader github I understand there are classes applied to the nevertheless, it doesn´t clear the FOUT-Issue.

Footer Nav

Footer links are missing. No need to specify code, but here it is

'footer-links', 'container' => false, ) ); ?>

(great work man!!)
