Thank you for the link. I will try to work through the errors shortly. ??

Seems I may have had a stray div in one of my posts.

Tried using the PS3 theme which it is based on and I have the same problem. How bizzarr!:(

Just download the wordpress package from the site as usual, unzip it, and grab the themes from inside there, ??

Dave

Just change the PHP template to have an include line and pull in what you want.

I totally agree. Nearly done with a new theme that I will switch over to shortly. Just need to check it all works etc. ??

Still no word.

Think i may change it just to be safe.

Yeah I am still awaiting a reply. My guess is they will either want some radical changes (perhaps the colour etc) or they will just say “uhhh NO!” in which case I will switch to a new theme straight away. The last thing I want is to be treading on toes.

The moment I get the word you will know ??

Dave

I have indeed re-created the design as a wordpress theme. As far as I knew the theme was not copyrighted and was infact a mambo template itself, of course I never seeked the mambo theme as i dont use mambo ??

I will sling them an email and find out as if it was a theme just for them or even designed by themselves then I will be post haste about changing my existing one.

I certainly do NOT want to be upsetting anyone at all and I commented on this very mambo theme earlier here in the wordpress forums requesting help to turn it into wordpress. When I got no help I figured I would try myself etc etc ??

Anywho, I will let you know if it turns out this is not an open source theme. if it os not I will be looking to change my sites one. I would not want a site of mine ripped if I paid for the design and I am sure they would not either.

Thanks for all the comments.

Dave

I have taken on board what you said. I do not fully understand your last paragraph about adjusting the side bar.

Agreed though, I didnt want it to look like a blog, of course i dont want it to look like a corporate site either as there must be the personal touch.

I deeply thank you all for your comments though and once i get back from racing this weekend I will get to work on cleaning things up.

Any other comments and clarifications are welcomed and warmly recieved.

Thanks again
Dave

Well I would need to change it so that e.g. the pages list and category menu were CSS Li divs etc and automagically generated. At the moment the menu is hard coded because i couldnt get a dynamic menu written out correctly.

I know pro users could easily sort, but its the people who will complain when it isnt all bells and whistles or doesnt validate that will be the issue ??

Will have to try and enlist help to try and fix it up. ??

Dave

Not just yet as the theme is quite bodged.

When I get some time to re-work the code and tidy things up then I may well do so ??

I am worried I have too many ads on there though.

I would HIGHLY recommend site5.

I use them for all my sites. As long as you have domains (anywhere) you can have unlimited FULL accounts for one fee of about $16 a month. This includes an amazing control panel based on cpanel, and, well, I wont go on but its the best I ever had. I used to be with Omnis but now I am with these guys.

I currently run all my sites with site5
https://blog.brightonvibes.com
https://www.dashboardmonkey.com
https://www.autohacks.net
https://www.free-junk.com
https://www.hyundaisportsclub.com

I could go on.

Read their feature page for the low down. ??

I think they mean they wish to use wordpress but want a theme that looks like MT. Like we have a theme that looks like nucleus etc ??
