Thanks for the great theme. It is really a great looking, customizable theme.

One question. I am using the theme on my website http://www.yourhrguy.com/ with internet explorer 6.0, and for some reason, the links in the first column are unclickable. I noticed the same thing happens on your site too with your left hand column. I've tried it on two separate computers with no luck. Any ideas?

I get this error when I send an email from a post. Any idea on how to fix it?

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home/onebigdo/public_html/testblog/wp-content/themes/1blogtheme1.2/theme-functions.php on line 199

That seems to have done it.

Thanks!

Hi, I love this theme, but I have found that I cannot get any of the inline media players to work in it, such as:

Taragana's Del.icio.us mp3 Player WordPress Plugin (my first choice due to simplicity)
Anarchy Media Player
1pixelout Audio Player
Inline MP3 Player

Have you had others ask about this, and is there a solution or media player that you does work with this excellent theme.

Javier,

Thank you for your prompt reply and solution to my problem. I very much appreciate it. Everything works fine, which you can see for yourself on this page:

http://www.onethingiknow.net/2007/11/18/free-mp3-the-underdog-by-spoon/

I'm using your theme? It is great. But after I updates Wordpress, the related post doesn't seem to work. It shows some post, but they are not related to the post. what should I do?

Hi again Javier,

Since you were so prompt in resolving my last issue, I thought I'd come to you with another. It may be related to the first actually. I noticed after you changed the header.php file (see messages 15 and 16 above), the 1 Blog theme was no longer displaying both columns in the Opera borwser. I believe it was working before, but I am not so sure since I switch back and forth between Opera and Firefox as my main browsers.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make Opera display the theme correctly.

Javier,
Thanks for your reply, after which I went on a hunting expedition for plugins that might be causing the problem. I solved it by moving a widget that was blocking the loading of the right column and footer columns. Thanks for the advice.

Error validation XHTML 1.0 Transitional in theme-widgets.php

I use this theme for my blog. But i found a little problem. Why the colour of admin comment never changed? It's still white just like other comments. What sould I do to fix it?

But I see your comments in this blog highlighted well. Could I changed the colour of the highlighted comment? How to do so?

Thanks, It's OK now.
I just want to share another problem. When I open my blog with Internet Explorer, the blog open with error :
Line : 71
Char : 352
Error : Expected «)»
Code : 0

Thank you very much for your wonderful theme! I'm doing the Chinese translation now and I will introduce it in my blog.
But there is on thing I can't solve, it seems the related posts don't work with the Chinese tags. How can I fix it?

Thank you for your reply! It was my bad, I reactivated the theme and the related posts just work fine! It seems I made some wrong modification to the codes.
btw, 键盘 means «keyboard» in Chinese~
:p

Hi Javier- Thanks so much for the great theme. I am trying to add the Stats Tracking Script code from MyBlogLog to this theme. MyBlogLog recommends putting this code right after the open tag. I've done this in other themes, in the header.php file, without problems. When I do it with this theme, my website goes blank. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks again,
Jim

I just came back to let you know never mind, I found the /ads/ directory and figured out how to work it. That is really slick. Sorry to bother you and thanks for the quick reply!!

Jim

Having issues with the Kimili Flash Embed plugin. It fails to display the flash slideshow I have added to a post.
Here is the link to my page:
http://kerrywebster.com/?p=38
It works correctly in other themes so I feel confident the code entered in the post is alright.
Thanks for a wonderfully awesome theme. Any help would be apprecitated.

Hi Javier- I have a question about «related posts». Above you said it is based on tags, or based on categories if there are no tags. This doesn't seem to be exact, some posts are related to posts with completely different tags and categories. My latest post at http://72suited.com/?p=12 is the first post in both it's category and tag, yet there are related posts. If there are no other posts in this tag and category, how can there be related posts? Some of my other posts are related to posts that shouldn't be also. Should I consider removing all tags and just using categories, would that ensure related posts are related? Thanks, and awesome theme!

Jim

What do you mean by «blank tags»? Leaving the Tags field blank? Sorry, kind of new at this stuff. I may try removing all Tags and see of the related posts work with just Categories. I love the theme, I've tried what seems like hundreds of them, and this is my favorite so far, I'm just trying to get it tweaked just right. Thanks!

Jim

A reader offers this criticism of the theme:

http://www.radicalcontrapositions.com/left_flank/2008/02/10/left-flanks-theme-update/comments/1/#comment-291

There seems to be some small problem with opening links in IE7 tabs.

Overall, wonderful theme! Thanks!

#44:

OK, so what exactly do I need to do to restore right-clickability? Can you give me explicit instructions?

Thank you for all your comments and help!

#46:

Where is this script? I'm far too stupid to put this script in the code intentionally. Where would it be exactly?

Thank you, I found the plugin. Another virtue of your theme is, that I need fewer plugins now.

Hi Javier,

I love the theme, but for some reason it won't show the «right sidebar». It justs shows Main and then Left directly beneath it. Do you know why?

http://liberator.dk/wordpress/

Hi Javier -

Love the theme, you do great work!

Can you suggest the best way to add legal footer info to the theme -- privacy policy, terms of service, etc.?

There doesn't seem to be an obvious way of doing this.

Also, how can I ensure the same fonts are used in the body and side columns?

Thanks!

Hi Javier,

Can the way the dates on each post appear be changed? For instance, by default it says «21 hours ago» or «2 days ago». Can it be changed to display actual dates, like «February 19th, 2008»? This might be a dumb question, I've looked through all the setting though, and it looks like it should be displaying like February 19, 2008. Thanks!

Jim

Thanks! I assumed that was in the post.php file. After changing it, my output looks like this now:

2008-02-18 17:38:55 ago

Closer, not sure about the «17:38:55 ago», every post has this and the numbers don't seem to relate to how long ago I posted it. Ultimately I was hoping to get a format like Tuesday, February 19, 2008, or maybe just February 19, 2008. 02-18-2008 would be a third choice, would be cool to get rid of the «17:38:55 ago» though. I see some stuff in the post.php file that maybe I should change, but honestly I'm real new at this stuff so don't want to break it either. Sorry to be such a pain, and thanks for letting me waste your time.

Jim

OK, I had already found that info, but where do I find the Date «the_date()» and Time «the_time()» parameters, which .php file is it in? According to my Wordpress Options page, the output should be «February 19, 2008 10:42 am», but since it doesn't look like that I assume I have to manually change something? Sorry I'm an idiot. I swear I am trying to find these answers before contacting you.

Thanks,
Jim

Ah, so that's how it works. I thought sidebar was supposed to be smaller than column. Thanks =)

I've searched and read a lot on this now, I can't figure this out, but I get the «feeling» from what I'm reading it could be a theme issue. My Wordpress Options page looks like this:

http://i31.tinypic.com/v4avzq.jpg

Not only is that output not what I'm getting, the time on posts aren't even accurate. Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks.

Jim

OK. I think I am starting to see what you're saying. I switched to the default theme and it didn't display «exactly» what I had selected in my options either. But I found «the_time» line of code in the «index.php» file in the default «themes» files. The index.php file in your theme doesn't have this line of code at all, and if I'm suppose to add it I have no idea where. Or am I way off still??

Thanks,
Jim

I must be super dense. I've taken this line of code: and put it in a hundred different places in post.php (of your theme files) in a hundred variations of that code and each time I broke my blog. I feel like I'm really close to figuring this out, but this is all brand new to me.

Should this be the code?

It didn't show up in the my last comment, because of the brackets and I didn't use the «code» html.

Thanks,
Jim.

Still didn't show up? Ok, without the brackets:

php the_time('l, F jS, Y g:i a')

Thanks so much for your help, sorry I was such a pain. I've got it looking about as best as I think I'm going to get it. The font is off just a bit and it is spaced away from the post title a bit, but it doesn't look too bad.

Thanks again,
Jim

Hi, thanks alot for a fantastic looking site. I get this error when clicking on the post comment link.

Thanks Javier, all fixed now.

My blog is not showing 'Genetics' category in Categories(right coloumn) while i have made a post in genetics category.It shows that there are 0 posts in genetics category? what is the problem?

This is the post link
http://www.techproductivity.com/genetics/using-dna-to-store-terabytes-of-data/

i am able to see that categoy in other themes?what is the problem in this theme? I am using wp 2.3.2 ..any solution why i am not seeing that category.?

Hi again, I have someting weird going on. No comments are showed to this post: http://liberator.dk/wordpress/index.php/2008/02/14/hej-verden/

But in the footer you can see it is suppposed to have three comments. Where have they gone?

Would appreciate it if you can help me out again. =)

I didn't remove anything in the post.php or comments.php files. I just removed the Related and Shared boxes on the front page. Are they responsible for processing comments?

If so, is it possible to hide them instead of removing them? I know that this is outside what I can reasonably expect you to help me with, so I don't expect you to. =)

Hi Javier-
Love the theme - thanks. How does your color picker work, exactly? I need to do some precise color matching but it's hard to know what hex color you're getting since the slider is «fuzzy». Is there an algorithm or table that can convert the slider's numbers into precise HSB, RGB, or hex?
Thanks,
James

Why does my wordpress.com stat plugin not work on your theme? It's not show any statistic while I use your theme.

it doesn't need to insert any kind of code according to installation guide.
You can view this plugin here : http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/

It's not happened when I used other theme.

Hi, first of all congratulations for this AMAZING theme!

I´m having this problem with IE7. When I go down with the scrollbar, the footer sidebar overflow the right sidebar.
Do you have any idea about how can I solve this issue?

cheers,

Diego, from Brazil!

I'm not aware of this behaviour and I don't sdee this theme on your site...

Hi Javier,

It´s because it shows that error, thats why I deactivated it.

Could you please explain further the way to change (post time ago) to actual posted time? I realize it's in post.php but I'm not clear on what to change.

Hi Javier,

Could you please explain further how to save 'meta name verification' in header or where is?

I always make error when submit in Google webmaster tool

Sorry, I don't know what you are referring to... In order to add your site to Google webmaster you'll probably have to add a meta tag in the header (header.php file). Just follow the instructions.

I seeing this serious error in the template. When i was browsing in 'tech news' category on my site (URL), i clicked on page 2 (next page) and i saw this error. I have seen this error several times. Sometimes posts in next page are seen while sometimes this error comes. Screen shot :
http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/5806/errorev1.gif

pls guide why this is happening.

That url is worng, it should be http://www.techproductivity.com/category/tech-news/page/2, not http://www.techproductivity.com/tech-news/page/2.

When I go to http://www.techproductivity.com/category/tech-news/ the pagination links are OK and are browsable. In any case those urls (and the 404 error page in case the url is malformed) are brought by wordpress itself, not the theme. I don't know how you got to that url, probably through http://www.techproductivity.com/tech-news/, but that isn't the proper url, though it's returning results. If you click actual links within the theme ther's no problem.

oh..ok..yes..i used to directly type http://www.techproductivity.com/tech-news/ i didnt knew it was due to it.

What happened to my blog's CSS? I've do nothing before. When I opened my blog this morning, it's look weird.

When I checked with W3C CSS validator, it's said : File not found: h**p://www.blogdokter.net/wp-content/themes/1blogtheme1.2/style.php?align=center&width=95%25&sidebaralign=right&sidebarwidth=35%25&leftsidebarwidth=50%25&linkhue=150&linksaturation=200&headerhue=82&headersaturation=154&headerlight=dark&background=white&menu=horizontal&imagenomargins=&gzip=0: Not Acceptable

What's that mean?

Your style.php file is returning a 406 error. This error is given by a server misconfiguration, likely related to the a security mod (if it worked before probably your server just turned on the mod). You can Google «406 error» on more information.

Save Our Blog. I enjoyed this theme during 2 months. But today , I visit my blog there is 1 sentence :DansGuardian - Acesso negado. (I don't know what the meaning this sentence)
What happened?

The message says it all. It's not the theme but http://dansguardian.org/ whch is returning that error.

Thanks for your info.

Hi Javier,

If I want to edit/add/change content in the very top part of the theme, what files should I be tweaking? I'd like to add some text links to log in, register, and log out. Ideally, I'd be adding PHP to one of the theme's files.

Thanks,
James

Check /ads/ files, For instance after-body-open-tag.php.

Fantastic theme... I love it. I do have one question. When I put something in quotes, and in «here is the quote», it shows up on the blog as «here is the quote». Is there any way to get it to show quotation marks?

Many Thanx for any help and please keep up the good work...
Keith

I really like this theme. It's very flexible. However, I'm getting a couple of problems, one in Podpress. and the other with the new Wordpress Stats. It suggests that there is a problem with the footer.

Podpress says this within the General Settings tab

Current Theme is not compliant
podPress has found the "1 Blog Theme" theme fails to meet important requirements.

The footer.php in your theme needs to be calling wp_footer(); before the closing body tag.
Change this:

To this:


Look at the default theme files for example.

Wordpress Stats do not load any data. When I look at the FAQ #4 on that, I see the same footer issue suggested.

Hello,

As you can check the wp_footer() function is called in the footer.php file (line 34).

Yes. I tried replacing it as directed. However, it doesn't work. Do you have any ideas?

I mean... I still get the error within Podpress and I still don't see the Wordpress Stats. Of course, I'm placing the line within the echo statement. Do you think you are going to look into this in a future release of the theme.... or even in the interim?

> I tried replacing it as directed

The code doesn't show up in the comment, so I don't know exactly what you are talking about, and the changes you made.

I marked the code as code in the comment... but it seemed to try to parse the code... and so... hmmmm....

I get this error... http://sweettt.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/footer1.png

even though I did this... http://sweettt.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/footer21.png

Well, first you can't echo a function call. You just have to add a line with wp_footer(); Second, as I said the footer.php file ALREADY includes a wp_footer call. Calling it twice won't make a difference.

Hi Javier. Thanks for the speedy replies. I really love this theme. I'm seeing something strange... It's not consistent with what you wrote in #114. I can't find wp_footer in footer.php with a default installation of 1 Blog Theme. And the /body is echo in footer.php in the default installation of 1 Blog Theme. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

> I can't find wp_footer in footer.php

It's definitely on the line 34 of footer.php. Check youhave the latest version of the theme.

> And the /body is echo in footer.php in the default installation of 1 Blog Theme

Of course it's echoed. It's HTML code. HTML code must be echoed. What can't be echoed is a PHP function, because then it won't run...

I love this theme but I can't seem to get some of the links to not overlap.

On my blog http://www.joeperrin.com there are overlapping links. Check out the sidebar where «Subscribe» is located for an example.

You'll see more examples of this if you scroll down to the bottom of any post where the «Share this post» section is. All the links in that section are overlapping too.

In an effort to troubleshoot the issue I've disabled all plugins but the issue still remains.

I'm using Wordpress 2.6.2

I'd really appreciate any insight on this issue.

Thanks!

Sorry Joe, I don't see any «overlapping links» on your site... I see everything OK. What browser/OS are you using?

Javier -- I figured out how to get an actual date (rather than a relative one) above each post, so please disregard my first email.

One other question: Is it possible to put use an image map in the header? On the options page there's only a spot for a url to the image, as far as I can see.

Thanks for your help

You'd have to edit manually the header.php file.

Disqus does not seem to work with this theme. The system works fine from the dashboard, but the post page itself does not change to include the new comment configuration.

Is there a code change I can make?

I don't know how Disqus work, but if it affects comments then probably you'll have to change something in the file comments.php.
