Hi,
Nice theme. How to I change the title in the header to my blog name?
TIA
on Jul 4, 2007
Hi steve. I think i forgot to upload soft copy for the logo. Now you can download minor update for this theme.
To remove logo and replace with text just remove line #header h1 { text-indent:-10000px; margin:0; padding:0; }
#header h1 a { display:block; background:url(images/logo.gif) no-repeat left top; height:56px; } in your css.
Only text title will show up.

Hello, i’m italian and i download this theme for my site (excuse for my english). I have a question: when in the right sidebar upload the widget “META”, why in the voice “Syndicate RSS” i’m appear the link “VOCE Rss”. I can sostitute whit the voice “FEED RSS”? Thanks for your great templates.
on Jul 5, 2007
Hi Davide, I think the link already in “FEED RSS”, or you need to change text Title VOCE RSS to be FEED RSS?
on Jul 5, 2007
Sorry for my BAD english! Exactly! I need to change text Title VOCE RSS to be FEED RSS.
Thanks!
on Jul 5, 2007
Hi Davide, Ok, VOCE RSS come from your Italian translations. Your translations developer already change the FEED RSS to be VOCE RSS. Or the simple way to change, make it manual. Don’t use the META widget.
on Jul 5, 2007
Thanks for your patience! Your blog is very very beautiful! Ciao, Davide…
on Jul 5, 2007
Ciao! I edit the file.mo for the correct transation. (Voce=Feed).
I can localization your wordpress themes? (for my personal use) Have you the
file.po for my personal localization?
Thanks…

Hi, great theme! I’d like to change the crosshair cursor the default. I tried changing in the style sheet under a.hover but it didn’t work. Thanks for the help.
on Jul 9, 2007
hi fc, to chage the crosshair at style.css and find to cursor:crosshair; and remove them. Thanks
on Jul 10, 2007
Hi, I did do that previously but the crosshair still showed up. I think I just had to restart my browser to see the change. Thank you!
Your themes are great. They are very clean and function well. I am also using Big Blue for my other blog. Thanks for making them available!

this is my favorite theme so far but i have a problem. I have the falbum plugin to work with flickr and it has been activated. I just don’t know how to insert the plugin into the sidebar. I’ve been on the wordpress and falbum support pages and all i can get is installation instructions but no how to use instructions.
on Jul 18, 2007
Tnx for the nice theme i use it now on my website.

Dear Admin
I used this theme for my other site too. But when i set the sidebar the way i like it gets messed up on internet explorer it works great on firefox. The post comes under the right sidebar. i dont have this problem on my other site. Do You Know what it could be.
on Jul 23, 2007
HiBob…
Thanks again for the theme.. just dropping by to download another copy.. i will compare it to the one modified.. hope we fix the little nuisance..

on Jul 23, 2007
Eli@ thanks to me know. strange problem. may i know whats the plugin you enable right now?
on Jul 23, 2007
hi, good news! found the culprit! It’s this code:
don’t know what that thing did, but the layout is ok now…
on Jul 23, 2007
Eli@ thanks. you make me happy
on Jul 23, 2007
no sir.. your theme made me happy!
I just wish I know how to code PHP..
on Jul 27, 2007
I’m using this theme because I like the fresh look. Can you tell me how to change the font size of the contents and the sidebar? I’ve tried changing it at style.css but doesn’t seem to have any changes?
on Jul 29, 2007
Hi,
I love this template .. simple and clean. The logo doesn’t show up on IE. I removed the logo like you advised but the tag line is missing. Can anything be done about this? I have a witty tag line that I’d like to appear below the name of the blog.
Also the the lines (hr line?) don’t show on IE.
Is there anything that can be done to correct this? I want to say, to hell with IE, but there are still folks out there who use IE and I want the template to appear as it was intended on both firefox and IE.
Thanks! Keep up the good work!
on Jul 29, 2007
Puteri@ thanks to me know. From the test run the orange line aka hr is display correctly. may you reupload back the css file.
for a description tag, i’ll upload the request file in some hours again.
Thanks
on Jul 29, 2007
chong@ open style.css and find all of font-size. change to new value
on Jul 30, 2007
Thanks, I’ve got it. Can you also tell me how I can change the colour of header text?
on Jul 30, 2007
I re-uploaded the css file as you advised but the logo and the hr still do not appear on my IE v.6.0 browser even after I have cleared the browser cache.
Do you know what the problem could be? I made up my own logo to replace default logo, and it came out fine with firefox but there was still nothing with IE.
Grateful for your help.
on Jul 31, 2007
I’m such a pain… Please help me place my header right above the orange divider.
Also, I think I must’ve messed up the margin. The right sidebar is too far to the right leaving a big gap between the main content.
Thanks, appreciate it.
on Jul 31, 2007
Would you please do another two-column sample?
on Aug 10, 2007
Hi Bob,
Very nice, flexible theme. I’m considering using it on a couple new sites. One question for you - there are text areas throughout the theme where there is a yellow highlight over the text. One example is on the single.php file:
You can follow any responses to this entry through the feed.
Where is the css style for that yellow highlight? I’d like to remove it if possible.
on Aug 21, 2007
I noticed some CSS issues with IE7 while testing it on http://themes.wordpress.net/testrun/?wptheme=4213;
A all the sub menu items for example “child 1″ push the menu list down on HOVER. It looks like because of the border. There are no two level menu items on your demo.
Trying to decide between Lemao and Big Blue for our blog on redevelopment property (teardowns) - we use orange in our color scheme.
on Aug 21, 2007
I would also like to know how to remove the yellow highlight. Would you be able to point out where the code for the highlighting is? Thanks!
on Aug 21, 2007
remove span { background:#FFC; } in style.css. the yellow highlighting will be gone.
on Aug 22, 2007
Wow, I really appreciate the template. Also with the answers you gave for everyone’s questions, I think I am all set. All I have to do now is write something. Thanks
on Aug 23, 2007
It’s a very nice theme. Thanks.
I am having a strange problem, however, in Internet Explorer, my “Edit” link does not show up, but in FireFox, everything is fine. Do you know why?
on Aug 23, 2007
Just discard my last question. I forgot I have to login in order to see the “Edit” link. My bad.
Thanks.
on Aug 24, 2007
Hi, again. Is this ‘post a comment’ set-up something I can put on my blog?
Thanks
on Aug 24, 2007
interesting
on Aug 25, 2007
Nevermind, I found it. it is a setting. lol
on Aug 25, 2007
Albert @ - great
on Aug 30, 2007
Awesome theme man. Very clean
on Aug 31, 2007
Bob, I love your theme but if I have an image which is linked it has an ugly yellow border.
For example, if you check out These posts You’ll see each of the images has a nasty yellow outline.
Any ideas how I can remove this.
Great work on the theme and thank you for sharing it
Cheers

I’m having a small issue- I have excerpts enabled for my homepage (index.php: get_excerpt) but when I use adsense deluxe or even directly add ad code, my excerpts don’t show- only the title. You can see this here: http://www.hcgdietinfo.com/articles
However, if I remove excerpts and replace it in index.php with “get_content” the full post is viewable. I prefer having excerpts though. Any clue how to correct this?
Great theme by the way- by far one of the best I’ve worked with.
on Sep 3, 2007
This is really pretty!:D Thank you! I can see myself using this in the near future, perhaps in a shade of green or blue though;)
on Sep 4, 2007
Sorry
on Sep 7, 2007
Great theme Bob! Check out my page. I’m learning wp, css, html, and the little bit of php I need as I go. Please forgive me if this is a noob question. When I add a new page in the wp-admin. It still only shows “About” in the links under the Pages header. Is there another bit of code I need to add to the Theme Editor? I’ll keep looking around, but let me know if you have the chance. Thanks!

I tried changing my font size in the .css file from
body { font-family:’Verdana’; font-size:11px; }
to:
body { font-family:’Verdana’; font-size:12px; }
because I want a larger font in the body of my posts…the content.
That didn’t work for the front, main page but the font did get larger when I click a single post.
How do I enlarge the font on the front page?
My site is:

Thanks for the great theme!

Hi Again. another question.
I”m attempting to put an image in my header but it won’t show up. Is there some code supressing that ability?
Thanks again.
on Sep 15, 2007
Still trying to figure out the excerpt thing, but now I have another issue. When I post in multiple categories, it shows multiple posts on the home page. For example, if I post an article under 3 categories, it shows that same article on the home page 3 times. Could really use some advice!
Thank you!
on Sep 29, 2007
Thanks for this theme. The best I’ve found to suit my needs.

Hi Jeni,
I don’t think it is related to the theme for having repeated posts, you might want to change your blog settings.
on Oct 1, 2007
Hi Lori,
You need to change your font size in #wrap field, not the body field.
on Oct 1, 2007
Hi Lori,
In the CSS file, you will find a section like this:
#header h1 a { display:block; background:url(images/logo.gif) repeat-x right top; height:67px;}
Change “logo.gif” to your image’s name, and you should be able to see your own header image.

Hey John (or anyone else out there),
I changed the logo on my blog from the default limau orange to my own creation (like John has done on his blog) only it is not appearing. When you go over it with the mouse something is there, but I don’t see anything. Any advice out there would be great, thanks.
One other thing: does anyone know how to put an image in the sidebars of limau orange? I just want to have one or two static images that I can put in there…
Cheers,
ezra

This is a great template! I just switched over today. I enlarged the header and have covered the search function. Is there a way I can embed the search into the header I’ve created. Thanks a ton!
on Oct 17, 2007
Sorry to bother you again but I’m a novice in html. This will be my last question - really. I would like to add the “Submit Comment” to this page http://thestylishvegan.com/?page_id=2. How do I do that? Thank you so much for you help!

I love the theme but would love to change the fill background like this one. How can I do it? (Like the dark gray surrounding this theme.
Love the theme and have been using it for a while.
on Nov 15, 2007
This is a beautiful theme, simple and elegant. However, to match its beauty you really ought to improve the support you’re giving to those of us that use it.

@Christopher Rose : Based on your suggestion, I just put up a chat box on the site. Chat directly with me whenever I am online on my messenger

Thanks

What would be the best way to have both sidebars to the right of the main body?

How can I make the text “black” instead of “grey?” Thanks for a terrific theme.

How can I get rid of the gray frame/border around images inserted in my posts?
on Dec 18, 2007
Hi admin.
Great theme. Thinking about changing to it. But what do I have to do, to make a fluid theme instead of one with fixed width?
Thanks alot in advance,

So I am using this theme on a blog I work with but we cant seem to get the images to work right.
When we insert an image it only shows at the top left of the post. When we use the image tools to flush right or wrap the text around it it doesnt work but I have seen it done in other blogs using this theme.
Is there something specific that needs to be done to make an image show in side the text?
on Dec 29, 2007
Beautiful theme. My eyes never tire of seeing that orange. I swapped the search box with another image — it fit nicely. Thanks for sharing your design.
on Jan 3, 2008
Very nice! Clean, crisp, and chic! I also like how the others have customized the look for themselves. If anyone can give me help on making a nav bar of some sort, please LMK.

Hello,
Now taging is on in wordpress 2.3 but I cannot find the tags under the post i make. I guess this theme does nots show tags.
I have quick question: I am using this theme for some time, still making it look like I want it
Is there a standard code to place in the post.php so that the tags would appear?
I dont know if you have a reply, but at the moment I will try to use a plugin: something like ’simple tags’ to try to place a line of tags under the post near the ‘email”print”track’ and othe rthings. maybe you have some thoughts will it work? and what should I do? mabe an update of the theme sometime latter?
I will subscribe to comments, so I get all the latter comments of the owner or users/colleques.
Thankx.

I removed line #header h1 { text-indent:-10000px; margin:0; padding:0; }
#header h1 a { display:block; background:url(images/logo.gif) no-repeat left top; height:56px; } in your css.
is there a way to show to blog subtitle, too.
on Jan 20, 2008

Thanks for theme Bob. i like it so much, because i like orange. i just start to make a website. there is no problem for now. but if there is a problem may i ask anything to you? thanks again.
on Feb 9, 2008
Great theme! Have a few questions for making some changes….
1. can I change it to 2 column instead of three? How?
2. How to add image to the header?
3. How to increase header size?
Thanks.
on Feb 12, 2008
Hi, I see you have plenty of questions to field.
I love the theme but there is one thing I’d like to change:
The paged archives bring up the full sidebar (pages, archives, blogroll, meta) but the single page sidebar stops after archives and does not display blogroll and meta. How can I change the single.php file to have the full sidebar come up?
on Feb 12, 2008
I loved the theme and started using it for my site because it had everything I wanted however, I dont think its SEO friendly.
Recently I checked the index stats for my site and noticed that only one page has been indexed by google. My site has been up now for over a month. What really bothered me about that is that the description that Google had for my page was the information listed in my sidebar i.e. pages, about, instead of providing a description of my post.
At first I thought it might be something wrong with my site but after checking the index stats for the sites in the comments above I noticed the same results.
Here, see for yourself. The following sites use your theme. Copy and paste each line into a google search field and see the results for yourself.
site:blog.brochurebuilders.com
site:www.idratherbewriting.com
site:www.dizi.nl
site:adworldclassifieds.com
site:ezrawinton.com
Is there a fix for this besides installing an SEO plugin?
