Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the questions I figured I’d answer and get out of the way ahead of time. If theres one that you do not see on the list, feel free to leave a comment or shoot me an email.
What if I do not have a logo and just want the blog title text?
Well, do not select the checkbox in the MAIN OPTIONS section for the logo and your blog title will appear in place.
Does this theme give IE6 support?
No, it doesn’t – I haven’t looked at it in any IE6 and will never look at it in IE6. I was contemplating having a box pop up letting your readers know they need to upgrade to IE8 but I left that out of this release. If there’s enough requests for it, I’ll add it into a future release.
What is the TIMTHUMB options?
TimThumb is a php script built by Darren Hoyt and was released as an open source project. You can read more about it by clicking here. If you do not select the checkbox, the timthumb images will not show. If you do select it but forget to add a custom field for any posts, there is no theme breaking. The custom field key is “image”.
The max width of the post box is 536 so if you want the image to stretch across and fit perfectly with that width, that is the pixel width you need to use.
What do I need for the advertisement codes section?
@suedecrush asked me about this when testing the theme so I knew I should add it here as well – the code boxes are for the FULL html codes for your ads, not just the url of the ad.
Do I need to add the page navigation plugin?
Nope – it’s already coded into the theme. Enjoy (*note, if you have the wp-page-navi plugin installed, it will break the theme so make sure it’s deactivated if you’ve used it previously)
I want to style the theme and change some css codes – how do I do that?
I added a custom.css file into the main theme folder that you can add codes into in order to edit the theme styling without editing the original theme css files. Simplicity and ease of use is what I was after here – can you tell? I’ve already pre populated the custom.css file with some of the main css style sets for the header/footer/navigation/ect so you know what to change.
What should I do if I want to have this theme customized for my site?
Funny you should ask – you know, I run a custom blog and web design company by the name of Guerrilla right? Well, it just so happens that, as the builder of this theme, I am able to customize it with ease. Below are a couple of the sites I have built that used this theme – only, more customized. (If you’d like to have your theme customized, please do not hesitate to contact me).
