Grassland is designed for the blogger who wants to give an environmental twist to their content.
This theme is GPL, and is now fully downloadable by all - non-members included.
29th July 2009: Theme had problems with Wordpress 2.8, now working as of versions 2.0. Threaded comment code added too along with a few other tweaks.
27th April 2009: The theme has been updated to version 1.1.1.
Bold, italic and other simple font styles were not showing up as expected.

Thanx for the theme, it is perfect for my blog about ecology. I juste have a problem, I have long articles and I would like to show only an extract on the main page. I tried ‘the_excerpt()’ It works on the main page but also when you try to open the article you only see the extract. Other solution tried: in the blog settings, I selected “show an extract” but it won t work ether.
Could you help please ?
Thx a lot guys !
Thank you and I hope you enjoy this and other themes of ours!
‘Show an extract’ as mentioned is an option for feeds, not for the display of the blog on the site so it won’t affect the display of content.
A better way to achieve what you want is to use the standard WordPress functionality of using the ‘More’ button in the editor. That way you get an initial break in the content with a (more…) link that takes readers to the rest of the content. It also allows you to have full but brief posts, along with short excerpted posts mixed together.
For maximal support, including some help where possible on modifying our themes to your own requirements, it can be worthwhile joining the themes club as we give priority to members. It also helps support the development of future GPL themes.

Hi Vincent and thank you for your valuable feedback. Version 1.1.1 of the theme has now been released and is the available download.
Hi
this template is too cute!
But I’m in trouble with lightbox effects! Lightbox doesn’t work on this theme.
WP 2.7.1 - Theme 1.1.1
Any Help?
Thanks!
Hi Chiara and thanks for the great feedback.
I normally use the Shadowbox JS plugin for lightbox style and have usually found that to be fine. I know it works just fine at http://liverpoolwebdesigner.com/ which uses a version of the theme.
Hello
Thanks for a great theme. I’m using the updated 2.0 version.
I have a problem, i don’t know how to create site templates. I need to create pages without sidebar, pages without the comment feature etc.
Is there anyway to do this? Most themes support page templates, where i create a new php file for pages.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi Felix - yes, you can create page templates with Grassland, just as you would with any other theme.
If you need further support, we anticipate opening the themes club for membership once more in the very near future.

This theme seems to be broken in WordPress 2.8:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare body_class() (previously declared in /home/catercal/public_html/wp-includes/post-template.php:355) in /home/catercal/public_html/wp-content/themes/grassland/functions.php on line 14
Whoops - thanks for that Nardo - unfortunately although we’d uploaded the new version of the theme, we had missed changing the link to the download. We’ve fixed that now and you can download the full WP2.8 compatible version.
Thanks for pointing that out.
I love this theme. I used it as a framework to build a new design. (While maintaining original author credits.) The issue I’ve been running into is that I can’t use the ShareThis plugin with the theme. I’ve tried both letting the plugin try to put it in posts automatically, and putting in the source myself. Both ways it just doesn’t show up. It’s like I did nothing at all.
However, that’s my only complaint…and it really doesn’t have much to do with the actual theme anyway.
Hey Harlan - glad you like it! Let us know the new design once done.
With respect to ShareThis, it should play nicely. We’ve certainly used AddThis a couple of times with no issue. You may have some javascript clash or similar. If you want to discuss this more fully come join us
Hello, Great theme, I use on my blog for a month, now I have a problem in comments.php, but I don´t have idea how solve.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_logout_url() in /home/semillas/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/grassland/comments.php on line 130
This is line 130 on comments.php
<a href=”" title=”">
Help would be apreciated, thank you.
Line 130 in comments.php should be a closing div tag. Make sure you have the correct version of the theme, downloaded from either here, or from the WordPress.org repository.
Should be version 2.1.0
It’s also odd that wp_logout_url is undefined - that’s on line 27 of comments.php
Is it still possible to get a copy of Grassland 1.1.1? I couldn’t find a way to get to the archives.
Hi Manu - yes indeed it’s possible, but it’ll be a member’s only download. If you join I can make it available.
The only thing worth noting is that it’s not been tested on WordPress 2.8, nor does it have threaded comments. You may be able to find a French translation at http://www.wordpress-tuto.fr, however.
I love the theme, thank you so much for making it available. If I don’t know the code very well, do you think it’s possible to learn how to change the background color? Any post anywhere about this? I know how to pick a hex color code but that’s about it. Where in Grassland or how can I change the background (brown) color?
Thank you very much.
Tadas - first of all thank you for your good words about the theme.
Sadly we can’t afford to give free support in the comments. As I keep repeating - if you want support, you have to join and post questions in the forum.
LOVE IT! Is there anyway to take out the windmills?
Thanks,
Shannon
I love the theme except for the background. How can I get the sky and grass background as in this page?
Hi there. Love the theme. I opened it in the safari webkit developer today and I notice that the base tag is being closed incorrectly; I looked it up. There is no end tag.
Line 5 of header.php:
- <base href=”">
+ <base href=”" />
