I am already using stingray and that have same content type article used for slidewhow in ddblock.

How can i use existing content type "article" in deep-sea. I tried it reads the contents but anyhow doesn't show the image or slide text anything, Just shows numbered pager.

Please help.

Hey,

I'm going to be looking at this later today. The Article content type isn't identical to the one used on Stingray, so I'm going to have to make some changes if you want your visitors be able to swap themes.

Thanks Rob I will wait for that. I am kind of crazy about themes. It is my family site. But still i want to share all content across themes.

It will be very nice of you if you make article content from stingray work in deepsea. Other i dont like to use imagecache. I am not using it with stingray and will not use with deepsea. I hope that is not the show stopper.

Another issue with deepsea is if I enable any block in right region it jumps down that is why i cant put any block in right region. Same issue is with stingray also. Once you put blocks in right side area the front page gets messed up.

Thanks a Lot

The DDBlock in Deepsea is fixed. It required edits to the preprocessing functions in Deepsea's template.php. I don't see the behavior you're referring to with the right sidebar, but I suspect it may be related to validation errors present on the page. If you run the site through http://validator.w3c.org, you'll see it's reporting tags that are left open, which can cause all sorts of unpleasant layout issues.
