    Does anyone know how to add Calendar and a€?Recent Postsa€? into the Kubrick template? Thank you.

    I am sure some other “dumb” newbiea€?s like me have asked this question before, Hence, I think apologies in advance is due.

    Thanks a million!

    alphaoide,

    Thank you. pasted the code into style template… Unfortunately, it did not work out for me. Any idea how to make it work? Thanks a million.

    Bill

    Style template? which one is that? It goes to index.php. Just one line for the calendar.

    <?php get_calendar(); ?>

    How did it not work out for you? What did you get? What output?

    Sidebar Template
    Header Template
    Comments Template
    Footer Template

    Thanks a million..

    Main Template = index.php
    But I guess you’d like the calendar in the sidebar –> Sidebar Template = sidebar.php

    Are you saying I should paste above code in Sidebar template? Should I put anywhere in the template or is there a particular place? Please help. Thank you.

    Bill ??

    Yes, in the sidebar.php – and anywhere you’d like to be displayed. I’d suggest either on the top, after
    <div id="sidebar">
    or at the bottom, just before the closing
    </div>

    Thanks. It worked very well for me. Do you know the code to pull up “Recent Posts”. Thanks a million.

    Bill

    Read the instructions for the plugin.

    Thank you. Where can I find “instructions for the plugin”? Any link?
    Sorry I am newbie….:-)

    Bill

    IN this thread, in the very first reply to your initial question, there is a link to a plugin that displays the recent posts.
    Click, read, download, read, install, read, activate, read… ??

    The link broken… the server down! ??

    Thank you

    Now I understand that you are a newbie, but still you could read before clicking. No, the plugin page is not down. The Codex is down, but that was the link for the clandar tag.
