Sepia Template - Heads Up

I have been using Sepia as a foundation for a new theme - and in my new theme I was modifying the appearance of a quote

eg;

“this is a quote”

I was getting a message ‘Missing Scope’ - text.quotation’

Firstly - once you have brought the theme into the new theme editor - when you export you lose the ability to see the layout of the file - it now runs as one big giant text stream - because of this - I couldn’t add the missing scope myself - novice … I am sure someone who knows the syntax properly could do this … not me.

So I went back to the default Sepia and decided to build again - assuming somewhere along the line I must have deleted that particular scope.

But even in the default sepia scope the same issue - ‘missing scope - text.quotation’

Hi John,

Regarding the “big giant text stream,” if you open the exported JSON file into a code editor like TextMate and use the JSON formatting command (in the TextMate JSON Bundle), that should neaten the formatting for you. Any JSON parser (or web-based JSON parser) should have this ability.

In terms of the scope issue, if it’s permissible for you to post the JSON code or a link to the file, that might help diagnose the issue. I’ll try to take a look at the root Sepia file in the meantime when I have a chance.

Hope that helps!

You are right, the text.quotation scope is missing that from that theme and should be there…will fix.

Pardon to resurrect this old thread, but in my editor preferences I see this alert in the Sepia theme:

Default scope missing. Theme may not fully render some syntaxes.
Missing scope: "text.quotation"

.

How can I fix this?

You cannot fix it for the built-in theme. It’s not a significant issue in this case, and has been fixed in the current beta cycle, just not out in a release. You can use the theme, it won’t cause any problems.
