Still struggling with this issue, would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me out here!

Maybe the zip file you bought doesn’t only contain the theme, but instead for example a folder with documentation, copy right stuff etc. and a folder with the theme itself. Obviously you only want the theme itself to be uploaded

Thanks a lot for your help!

Thanks. I think I understand now, so basically for every image that I want to be implemented on the site, even if I don’t want it to ever change and always stay like it; I need to use a ‘function’? For example the logo

The theme is just for one specific site, I’m not planning to use it anywhere else, so hard-coded would be fine then?

Because then my basic question would remain, I understand that I would then have to change:

<div id="logo">
<a href="#"><img src="images/logo.jpg"></a></div>

to

<div id="logo">
<a href="#"><img src="hard-coded url here"></a></div>

[Please post code snippets between backticks or use the code button.]

And i would be fine? And how does one create a hard-code when he’s working local?

Thanks!

Thanks a bunch!

I’m aware of that I’m not using functions there, but for example I want to include my logo like this:

Would I need to make use of functions too? And if so, how would I do that since I just want to implement the image?

Thanks for your response, but what if you are coding offline and you do not yet know how the URL’s are going to be?

And why does it need to be absolute urls? I have always worked with relative and had no problems, or is this WP specific?

It may be my lack of the knowledge of English language, but what are you referring to here?

That’s a difference with the HTML code then, right?

And what if you’re doing it offline, or do I do then (../images/link.jpg) ?

I can’t edit my post, but this is the pastebin; sorry forgot that I had to do that here:

Thanks for your response!

So your say would be that my best bet is to modify for example the Twentyten theme?

How about issues with putting this project into my portfolio etc.?

Thanks for your replies, I looked at the Codex before, when I was editting themes, and it provides some really useful info; though it doesn’t really go in depth in creating a theme as a beginner. The eBook I referred to does do that, but I am worried about the fact that its from 2008. Do you think that in the case of WordPress this is a real problem? Or didn’t that much change from the core of WP?

Up!

Up ??

I’m trying to implement it, but if you are interested in the code see this: LINK
