Change original theme name of a template in appaearence tab

yup….usually what I do is make a copy of the theme folder

Rename the folder to what you want to call the theme, and put it back in the theme folder

Then in style.css change the name of the theme in the header there

Or you can just change the name of the folder, and in style.css without making a copy. Just switch to the default theme while you are doing that so nothing goes strange

Thanx for your answer! But after the corrections you recomended it still says “Church theme options” in apppearance tab…

Heeelp!!!

hmm…that shouldn’t be the case after changing the name in style.css

did you refresh your browser to see the changes? ctrl+f5

Yep, i did….

you will (probably) find the theme options’ code (including the text) in functions.php of the theme (depending on the complexity of the theme).

Here is the functions.php for the theme,

load_theme_textdomain(‘studiopress’, TEMPLATEPATH.’/languages/’);

add_filter(‘comments_template’, ‘legacy_comments’);

function legacy_comments($file) {

if(!function_exists(‘wp_list_comments’)) : // WP 2.7-only check
$file = TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/legacy.comments.php’;
endif;

return $file;
}

// Turn a category ID to a Name
function cat_id_to_name($id) {
foreach((array)(get_categories()) as $category) {
if ($id == $category->cat_ID) { return $category->cat_name; break; }
}
}

// include the breadcrumb nav tool
include(TEMPLATEPATH.”/tools/breadcrumbs.php”);

// include the theme options
include(TEMPLATEPATH.”/tools/theme-options.php”);

// include the dashboard widget
include(TEMPLATEPATH.”/tools/sp_dashboard_widget.php”);

if ( function_exists(‘register_sidebars’) )
register_sidebar(array(‘name’=>’Sidebar Top’,’before_title’=>'<h4>’,’after_title’=>'</h4>’));
register_sidebar(array(‘name’=>’Sidebar Bottom Left’,’before_title’=>'<h4>’,’after_title’=>'</h4>’));
register_sidebar(array(‘name’=>’Sidebar Bottom Right’,’before_title’=>'<h4>’,’after_title’=>'</h4>’));
register_sidebar(array(‘name’=>’468×60 Header Banner’,’before_title’=>'<h4>’,’after_title’=>'</h4>’));

function the_content_limit($max_char, $more_link_text = ‘(more…)’, $stripteaser = 0, $more_file = ”) {
$content = get_the_content($more_link_text, $stripteaser, $more_file);
$content = apply_filters(‘the_content’, $content);
$content = str_replace(‘]]>’, ‘]]>’, $content);
$content = strip_tags($content);

if (strlen($_GET[‘p’]) > 0) {
echo “<p>”;
echo $content;
echo ” <a href='”;
the_permalink();
echo “‘>”.__(“Read More”, ‘studiopress’).” →”;
echo “</p>”;
}
else if ((strlen($content)>$max_char) && ($espacio = strpos($content, ” “, $max_char ))) {
$content = substr($content, 0, $espacio);
$content = $content;
echo “<p>”;
echo $content;
echo “…”;
echo ” <a href='”;
the_permalink();
echo “‘>”.$more_link_text.””;
echo “</p>”;
}
else {
echo “<p>”;
echo $content;
echo ” <a href='”;
the_permalink();
echo “‘>”.__(“Read More”, ‘studiopress’).” →”;
echo “</p>”;
}
}

sorry, I didn’t read your post properly

“Church theme options”

theme-options.php is a file that probably controls that aspect of your theme

Here we go..theme-options.php ,

$defaults = array( // define our defaults
‘header_blog_title’ => ‘Image’,
‘featured_top_left’ => 1,
‘featured_top_left_num’ => 3,
‘featured_top_left_thumb_width’ => 70,

‘featured_top_right_thumb_height’ => 70,

‘featured_bottom_num’ => 3,
‘featured_bottom_thumb_width’ => 110,
‘featured_bottom_thumb_height’ => 110,
‘enews’ => ‘Yes’,
‘blog_cat’ => 1,
‘blog_cat_num’ => 5 // <– no comma after the last option
);

// push the defaults to the options database,
// if options don’t yet exist there.
add_option($settings, $defaults, ”, ‘yes’);
