Hey all,

Sorry I haven’t been able to answer some questions in a while.

I just uploaded version 2.4.4 which should be available soon and it does solve (hopefully) most of your issues. If you have any more problems please contact me through my site. I answer those questions a lot quicker.

Sub-pages are not set up to be displayed. Might try to figure out a good way to have them appear in a future version.

I am not familiar with the plugin. Not too sure why it wouldn’t work. The theme is built with all of the WordPress default requirements in place. Hmm.

Hey Tom,

You gotta change the meta tags in the header.php file. No UI as of yet. Maybe in the next version.

Hmm. Will have to make a few changes to make it work as a fluid theme. Maybe soon.

There is already an archives page in the theme. If you add an archives widget to the sidebar it till automatically link to the archives page.

To change colours it is all in style.css. Just look at the source for your page and find the things you want to change then look for the div that wraps them and its id or classname. Do a search in the stylesheet and change around the colours.

Hey ronaldb73,

Yeah. Just updated the theme will override your changes. Did you make changes to the core files or just the stylesheet?

Hey one504,

By feature-post are you referring to the first post on the main page? The image that should be displayed there is the first image that is in the post, not just in the gallery but in the actual. If no images is added to the post it won’t get displayed there. There is no custom field setup for this theme but if you want to add one it is pretty simple.

Hey ronaldb73,

The latest version of the theme fixes the page images issue and adds some other cool options. A quick solution that does require any CSS is to just change the id in pages.php from “posts” to “pages”.

You sidebar widgets’ styles are here:

.side-widget {
float: left;
margin: 0 0 10px;
padding: 0 10px 15px;
background: url(images/bg-hatch.gif);
border: 1px solid #ddd;
}

.side-widget ul {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}

.side-widget ul li {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
font-size: 13px;
}

.side-widget ul li {
padding-left: 15px;
margin: 2px 0;
}

Add something like:

.side-widget ul li a {
color: #ff0000
}

to change the colour of the links in the sidebar widgets.

Hey joejim,

You got a lot of categories. I would suggest swapping out cats for pages in the nav bar. Open up header.php and change wp_list_categories to wp_list_pages. Then delete the subnavigation div from around line #88 to #95.

That should do it.

Hey WendyWeb,

Do you know if you are on a Windows server? I know a lot of people have been having issues with the header uploader on Windows servers. If you want to contact me with more info I will take a look and see what the problem is. Just go to my site’s contact page and drop me an email. Any solution I find I will post back here as well.

Are you using WordPress 2.6 or earlier? If so, you will need to change the logout function. Check out comment #206 at https://bavotasan.com/downloads/magazine-basic-free-wordpress-theme/for a solution.

I just figured out a way to either display your author’s User Photo or avatar. I couldn’t add the code here so you can check out my solution at https://bavotasan.com/tutorials/how-to-display-an-author-list-with-avatars-in-wordpress/
