[wp-testers] template_directory ? childtheme_directory ?

[John Asbacher]

WP 2.9.1

Using template_directory does not allow finding the file in the child theme directory at all.

all examples assume active childtheme in CHILDTHEME directory

This was reported over a year ago as well.

*incorrect* ?
this line
<img src="<? bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/header.jpg" />
returns
ww.SITE.com/wp-content/themes/k2/images/header.jpg

workaround / correct using *stylesheet_directory*
this line
<img src="<? bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/header.jpg" />
returns
ww.SITE.com/wp-content/themes/CHILDTHEME/images/header.jpg

what I would expect is...

<img src="<? bloginfo('theme_directory'); ?>/images/header.jpg" />
returns
ww.SITE.com/wp-content/themes/CHILDTHEME/images/header.jpg
if not found
ww.SITE.com/wp-content/themes/k2/images/header.jpg
