I also replied at my forum. The email address you left was not resolving. Here’s the solution:

Open the file functions.php and on the third line, this one:

require_once ( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/theme-options.php' );

replace
get_stylesheet_directory()
with get_template_directory()

This will get it fixed.

The themes in the repository are required to perform well in all the common situations and in most of the probable situations. Sometimes compromises must be made to meet this requirement.

Think about this one the following way:

• A separate location for the theme options group is confusing, especially if it’s alone at the end of the menu
• If another child theme/plugin/component/extension claims the position of that top menu item, either yours or the other one is gone, how’s that for usability?

This is what you have to edit:

Here’s what you need to change in tag.php:

Remove what’s highlighted in red and replace with what’s highlighted in green.

Just update the theme to the latest version. It was a bug that was fixed.

Hi,

The headline section shows your very latest post.

In the Featured section you can show a category of posts that you want to highlight. By default the category name is Featured but you can select any in the theme options.

The popular section shows either the most commented posts (default) or the most viewed (set in theme options).

The latest section shows the normal post list with an offset of the first post which is shown in the Headline.

@songdogtech You really have some unhealthy beliefs. This being the second time you leave me this reply I assume you really heve some frustrations.

Well I can tell you the following:

1. It’s not called jumping in, you don’t own a thread where you left the first reply – and you can’t be sure you have the perfect solution

2. For how long you’ve been around if totally irrelevant. If you can’t win your respect, don’t ask for it.

Sorry for the offtopic but you should really get a grip.

You hang out on Twitter too much.

@songdogteh, cheer up, life’s beautiful

Then maybe archive.php

Check this Template Hierarchy.

If you have at least little experience with web programming this should be pretty easy.

Include everything you have in the header in a file called header.php and I would replace the “Buy the book panel with the sidebar, then include the link to buy the book in a widget.
Put everything you want to be displayed in the sidebar in a file called sidebar.php.

Put the rest in index.php and that should be your wordpress theme that contains the design of your site.

Use home.php for the home page layout ??

Apply the following in style.css:

.menu ul li a:link, .menu ul li a:visited {
  background-color:#FFFFFF;  // Background color of normal link
  color:#336699;  // Text color of normal link
}

.menu ul li a:hover, .menu ul li a:active {
  background-color:#333333;  // Background color of hovered link
  color:#6699CC;  // Text color of hovered link
}
