Wonderful design concept, perfect for business.
First of all I must say it’s very exceptional and superb design
I am using it on my autos/cars blog, can you please give me an idea how to display only Parent Categories on home page, as I don’t want to display sub cats. on home page… Any help in this regard will be appreciated!
Edit Sidebar.php and replace the following line (Line No 66-71)
<?php$args = array('before_widget' => '<div id="widget_" class="widget">', 'after_widget' => '<div class="clear"></div></div></div>', 'before_title' => '<div class="widget_heading"><h3>', 'after_title' => '</h3><img src="' . blogimages . 'heading-left.gif" width="12" height="13" alt=">" /><div class="clear"></div></div><div class="widget_body">');
if ( !dynamic_sidebar('WestBar') ) :
the_widget('WP_Widget_Categories', 'hierarchical=1&depth=-1', array('before_widget' => '<div id="widget_categories" class="widget_west widget_categories">', 'after_widget' => '<div class="clear"></div></div></div>', 'before_title' => '<div class="widget_heading"><h3>', 'after_title' => '</h3><img src="' . blogimages . 'heading-left.gif" width="12" height="13" alt=">" /><div class="clear"></div></div><div class="widget_body">'));
endif; ?>
with
<?php$args = array('before_widget' => '<div id="widget_" class="widget">', 'after_widget' => '<div class="clear"></div></div></div>', 'before_title' => '<div class="widget_heading"><h3>', 'after_title' => '</h3><img src="' . blogimages . 'heading-left.gif" width="12" height="13" alt=">" /><div class="clear"></div></div><div class="widget_body">');
if ( !dynamic_sidebar('WestBar') ) :
?>
<div id="widget_categories" class="widget_west widget_categories">
<div class="widget_heading"><h3>Categories</h3><img src="<?php echo blogimages?>heading-left.gif" width="12" height="13" alt=">" /><div class="clear"></div></div>
<div class="widget_body">
<ul>
<?php wp_list_categories ('hierarchical=1&depth=1&title_li=')?>
</ul>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
If you enable widgets for WestBar then its not possible.
amazing demo, unfortunately when i activate, my navigation is not as in your demos, the categories show in the sidebar rather than as the main navigation – how can i change this? i really am looking forward to the secondary navigation that you are displaying for e.g. news
Go to Appearance -> LifeStyle Options and then hit on Featuerd Categories Tab. Read the following steps to do this:
Select Categories by holding CTRL or SHIFT Key.
Save these settings by pressing Save Settings Button. It’s done.
After this go to your blog home page and see the featured categories under the logo and advertisement.
Secondary Navigation show’s when any sub categories found under Parent Featured Categories.
excellent – thanks a lot. I hadn’t understood what you meant by featured category but it now works like a charm.
after a few tweaks, i’ll have it running on my site.
thanks again,
martin
Hi Martin,
The bar which is showing under the logo and advertisement is known as Featured Categories Navigation. Here you can display your favorite categories from featured categories option.
I think It is awesome theme. Thank you your Lifestyle theme is free.
But I have some questions.
First, It is the image problem of Featured and Editor’s pick and so on in the front page.
From your manual I have to upload image again although it is already uploaded and used in the post. is it right?
I want to use the first image being used in editing of the post or If I fill up the path of image like http://www.xxxx.com/public_html/... in the blank.
Is it possible? and How can I do it?
Second, I want to change the font size of the blog post. Please let me know how.
Thank you.
Hi Jake,
Go to Themes folder and edit layout.css to change the font from body tag.
Go to Your cPanel or FTP and find the upload folder into WP root folder. Create a folder “upload“, If not exists with 0777 permission.
I creat a upload folder in root wp, but i can’t using the thumbs. help me
can you please send the demo link?
I also can not load images in the homepage, the image that stays within the picture library wordpress ok, but this issue creates a folder called upload in the root of the site, already gave 777 as stated on the website of the creators but still nothing, not on my server and not via localhost can not upload the images featured on this theme and thumb
Hi, first of all i really liked ur theme and i am using it on my blog ExploreFreeStuff.com but my question is how can i display images on the home page ? i have tried but perhaps not getting the way . plz let me know the way i’ll be very thankful to u
thankx
From Post Options meta panel (at the bottom of your post editor) upload your image and Choose Yes from Show image with Post? dropdown. Your image will be displayed on the home page.
heyee guys!
my web designer has just implemented your theme on my blog http://www.worldsultimate.net and it just looks great! there are few things to get fixed though, but overall a great impact and worked in minor details. such as;
1. Please add a complete color palette of as we have in Photoshop and Illustrator which also accept the RGB Values to change in any color we want.
2. Please incease the room for Logo, as in height and width, and specify in admin section the size limit.
3. Your section of “INSIDE LIFESTYLE” should be INSIDE ‘BLOG NAME’ like mine, INSIDE ‘WORLD’S ULTIMATE’
4. Below each article brief, IN INSIDE LIFESTYLE, THE CATEGORY COLOR IS SET TO FUSCIA / PINK COLOR, WHICH LOOKS QUITE ODD TO ME, I THINK IT SHOULD BE THE THEME COLOR.
5. IF YOU GET TIME, PLEASE VISIT MY BLOG, AND SEE IN MOST POPULAR SECTION, MY MOST POPULAR STORY IS COMING AT THE BOTTOM…………khe khe khe
6. please remove the border from Ad-sense ad. in the header, especially NOT PINK!!!
7. IF YOU LOOK AT THE CATEGORY TREE, IN CATEGORY’S SECTION, THE MAIN CATEGORY SHOULD BE IN BOLD LETTERS, I GUESS SO…
8. AND THE MOST IMPORTANT………..DON’T GET MAD AT ME, AS I AM ALREADY IMPRESSED………GREAT WORK! CHAO
On the homepage, the first and biggest image featured post, the text next to it, H2 Tag is hiding within the short description of the article.
Just asking, is it ok?
Usman
Fabulous theme!
But, one problem I am getting, using it on my blog http://www.freebiesarchive.com/
The “Most Popular” thing is not working at all. Can you please advise me how to make it work?
Thanks in advance!
where is the adsense code ? i dont find 468*60 and 300*280 and post in footer adsense code !! pls help me, sorry poor english
Hi darren.
The adsense code is placed into functions.php file.
awasome design and perfectly job, keep going !
thank you.
I really love this theme and I’m using it for my latest site http://www.biggerbuttworkout.com. I only have 2 small issues with it. 1)The registration section…I don’t have users register for my site so I just removed that section from the code but it would be nice to have a check box to either display it or not. 2) I don’t like to use adsense code in my banner ad sections so I had to hard code a different ad because the theme only caters for adsense units. It would be great if instead of the 3 adsense unit functions, there were 3 dynamic widgets instead. This wordpress article shows how to set it up http://codex.wordpress.org/Widgetizing_Themes
But I really do love this theme, it looks so clean and professional so I’m sticking with it.
Stella
Great job! I loved, can’t believe it’s free!
Thanks a lot!
Excellent work, wondering if it works for WP 3.0?
Yes! This theme is compatible with WP3.0
I would choose which categories display in the main post. I want set a number cat per post.
You cannot set the individual limit for each featured categories displaying on home page in left column.
great theme. How do you add category tabs along the header bar. Regards Alx
Please read Documentation Page 14 for the Setup of Featured Categories.
Hi,
I found this theme fantastic but my problem is to show image in the home-page (there is only a blank box).
Could someone help me?
Thanks
See Comment No 982.
There is a problem with displaying images on the front page. You keep saying to add image from within the post but, this is definately not working properly in wordpress 3.0.1. I have already uploaded the images but i cannot point to them just upload anoter image. This part of the coding needs sorting out. There are other people having the same problem.
Hi this theme is working fine under WP3.0. Make sure you have select Yes from “Show image with Post?” Combo Box under under post option in post page.
Also, make sure “upload” directory exists in WP root folder where “wp-config.php” file located with chmod 0777.
Hi Guys
Thanks for this great wordpress template. I have been looking for a template like this and I please that its come my way.
Thanks for this theme. I love it. one question about the front page…the home category is showing my posts in an odd way. Not sure how to explain it but I’ll do my best.
The articles are appearing with the title to the top left and then the content flushed to the far right. How can I change this?
My website is http://www.mom-esteem.com any help would be much appreciated!

Hello Admin,
I really love your theme and I want to use it in my new website, but I would like it to be exactly like the “Post Style or the Beauty Tips for Working Women Layout” coz its simple and readers friendly. However, when I installed your theme it looks differently. Could you please help me to have that “Post Style or The Beauty Tips for Working Women Layout” in my website? What should I do? Thanks Admin.
Edmund
Can you please give us the url where you have implemented this theme?
Anyway I haven’t post anything yet. If I post one blog will I have that style?
Hi Admin,
First of all, I would like thank you for this wonderful theme. It’s very nice. I only have one problem and I hope you can help me. In the subscription tab, I tried to change all of the address, but after changing, the little feedburner icon, the icon under wordpress which says how many readers you have. I don’t see that anymore, it’s just an “x” box. Please help. Thank you
Can you please tell us which type of changes you have done in feedburner url? or please send the url where you have implement this?

Hi Sitham,
Go to WP Root Folder and create a new folder named “upload”. Some time your server configuration doesn’t allow us to create a new folder. Therefore you are getting this error! We hope this will help you!
Beautiful design! Excellent theme!
I have a question. I want to translate the footer.
From where can edit it?
Thanks in advance!
