    Welcome back Leif (Change)

    Can some one helpe me?

  4. Gravatar Icon 4 Hakkki24 Jan 2007

    First of all…An awesome theme !!! Congrats

    Now the questions:
    1. I have the same problem like Leif…I want the sidenotes only appear in their content. Not on the top of all

    2. Where can I edit the background color. Only white is not so cool :p…I want to have the header and the subcontent blue, the middle part (where the articels are) white, and the sidebar light grey…

    That’s so far…Thank you for your support !

    Hi,

    great theme !

    I hope you can answer my question: does the theme work under Wordpress 2.1?

    Best regards

  6. Gravatar Icon 6 Jvstin03 Feb 2007

    Jay, u r always so cool!

  7. Gravatar Icon 7 Ingo Vogelmann03 Feb 2007

    Wicked theme man, but can you tell me what this means? ( To be seen here: http://www.ingovogelmann.com/wp/ )

    http://jsbox.net/smilies/msn_cry.gif
    :'(

    WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘GROUP BY year(post_date), month(post_date), dayofmonth(post_date)’ at line 1]
    SELECT DISTINCT post_date FROM wp_posts LEFT JOIN wp_post2cat ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_post2cat.post_id) WHERE 1=1 AND ID NOT IN (1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) AND (post_type = ‘post’ AND (post_status = ‘publish’ OR post_status = ‘private’)) GROUP BY wp_posts.ID GROUP BY year(post_date), month(post_date), dayofmonth(post_date)
    Not Found

    Oh no! You’re looking for something which just isn’t here! Fear not however, errors are to be expected, and luckily there are tools on the sidebar for you to use in your search for what you need.

  8. Gravatar Icon 8 legado12 Feb 2007

    Why don’t you create a forum for this theme… some sort of helping desk forum will really make this sweater…

  9. Gravatar Icon 9 Dan12 Feb 2007

    Does this work with Wordpress 2.1? I am getting the same database error as Ingo and I am also having a problem with my About page where the headers and footers seem to only expand to 1/3 the page - staying on the left hand side.

  10. Gravatar Icon 10 Xodus16 Feb 2007

    Yes a forum would be very nice. I love the theme. I still haven’t figured out how to have my link images and tittle to show up at the same time in my blog roll. Like on your links page.

  11. Gravatar Icon 11 David20 Feb 2007

    Just like Dan and Ingo I am getting an SQL error aswell when using wordpress 2.1 to access catagories

    Has anyone figured out where the problem lies?

  12. Gravatar Icon 12 Freeza21 Feb 2007

    Hey, i love your theme, actually im using it! But i detected some bugs!

    1- it doesnt work properlly on Internet Explorer! on firefox its ok!

    2- The Blogroller doesnt work! i added links but they dont show up!

    i just detected these ones till now, but i really really love the theme and hope you to have a fully funcional version soon :D

  13. Gravatar Icon 13 Freeza21 Feb 2007

    Yeah… please! A forum would be great, then we could all get our answers and make our contribution for you to improve and fix the bugs of this great template! :D

  14. Gravatar Icon 14 Kyoko22 Feb 2007

    I love this theme. How do you get the images to show up under Listening? I think that’s nice.

  15. Gravatar Icon 15 Kyoko24 Feb 2007

    It’d be great if there’s a support forum or something =\

    I am wondering why the links I added to my blogroll don’t appear under Blogroll?

    And how can i have “Enjoying” opened by default?

    I am also unsure of what Noteworthy isn’t appearing on the site.

  16. Gravatar Icon 16 peter24 Feb 2007

    i would like to know on how to make this theme to show only one post in the front page?

  17. Gravatar Icon 17 Toto26 Feb 2007

    It is not easy to specialize your theme. But I like I a lot anyway!!!

    When ever you finished the documentary I my be would like to localize the theme to German language.

    So please let me know when you finished the documentary.

    Have fun

  31. Gravatar Icon 31 mattluriadotcom29 May 2007

    I love the theme but the flickrrss doesn’t work with 2.2, what about changing it for a different plug like a picassa plugin, is that possible?

  32. Gravatar Icon 32 Denysia03 Jun 2007

    First of all I want to say that I love this layout, but for some reason it keeps coming up with: WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ” at line 1]
    SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT ID) FROM

    And I have no idea how to fix that. Help?

  38. Gravatar Icon 38 Erica Brown04 Oct 2007

    If your blogroll section isn’t working, go into the addon/link.php and change the category ID to the one matching your blogroll. Heck, it says it in there.
