Hello again,
After updating to the newest theme version, and implementing the skin.php fix from my previous thread, I discovered that the blog shortcode is now a bit unreliable.
After updating my theme files the page containing the blog shortcode was VERY broken with elements all over the page. I found out it had changed the shortcode from this:
[blog cat=”news” limit=”1″ pagination=”false” postmeta=”true”]
to this:
[blog cat=”null” limit=”1″ pagination=”false” postmeta=”true”]
I changed the cat back to “news” and the page worked again as expected, however it seems to put the category “news” as a little bit of text at the start of the “one-third” I had put it in.
Overall it seems very flaky, as if I put a category in that contains no posts, the page again goes all over the place. And even while it’s working, the little bit of text containing the category name is something that our client will noticed instantly.
If you could look into this I would be very grateful.
Kind Regards

After testing this on a live server it seems less flaky, although the problem of “news” appearing at the top of the page when it’s set as the category is still happening. If you could look into this I would be very grateful.
Thanks
This has been solved by skype support.
Happy with the results.
Many thanks 🙂
EDIT: I assume these changes will be included in a theme update, for other peoples benefit.
