Hi there, i like your theme very much and thank you for your work, i got a question is how can i change the font size of the main text? your reply will be really appreciated. cheers, KAI

Kai, I think the best way to change the font size is to add a new class on style.css. This way we don’t compromise the rest of your theme. Copy the code below on the end your style.css, this should do the trick:
.storycontent p{
font-size: 15px; /* add new font-size */
}

That works pretty well, thanks a lot Flama.

hi,
How can I set this theme for RTL language (hebrew?)
Best Regards
August 4th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
Stavor, you can set your RTL style by adding the following line on your header.php :)
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php echo get_template_directory_uri() ?>/rtl.css” type=”text/css” />

Love this theme but I wish there was a right sidebar and dropdown menus…I’ve been trying to figure out how to manually add the right sidebar using these instructions http://www.blogohblog.com/adding-extra-sidebar-to-your-wordpress-theme/ I can’t find this code in sidebar.php:
Am I missing something??? Thanks so much in advance!

Was this theme hacked in a previous version? After installing 1.9, I noticed hundreds of hidden links to viagra and other drug related websites. After updgrading, the links disappeared. Was this a problem with the them or do you think it was something else?
Your input would be appreciated.

Hi tranquilbeauty,
to add a new sidebar you need to code some html and php on sidebar.php (basically copy this code: if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar() )). Then, you’ll need to register that new sidebar on functions.php.
After that you’ll have to style the positioning and visual on style.css. It’s quite a process…
If you only need a static sidebar you will just need the html and css. Hope it helped!

Ryan, if you downloaded the theme on WordPress you shouldn’t have any problems. I never heard anything about that before neither nobody reported. The theme should be ad/mysterious link free!
So everybody out there, play safe and download it from WordPress website only :D

Do you know why the comments on my ‘memorial’ blog are not all accessible??? I have it set up as basically one static page that takes comments. When I switch to the default theme, the comments are there. When I go to my somewhat customized GoldPot theme, only one (and now two – a second one left today) comments show up. Is there some sort of date related something that is causing this?
Also, I can’t seem to find how to access any sort of “see all comments” so that someone COULD view the others. Thanks! Love the simple design work you do.
August 25th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
I just uploaded the widget “get more comments” which brought back the access to the other comments, but not in a very elegant way. If I can get all the comments to reappear in the main page template, I’d then prefer to remove the “extracts” and just list the author’s name (as a psuedo index). So… still looking to restore all the comments on the main page…. Thanks!
August 27th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
Hi Kristin, it’s very strange that you’re not seeing all the comments. That is a default WP functionality. So let’s talk… we might find a solution! Thanks for the nice comments :D
September 8th, 2009 at 8:22 am
Thanks Catarina for your email help. I thought it might be helpful if I posted what you suggested that worked for me, in case anyone else has the issue:
You suggested: “on the admin settings>discussion> try to change the number of comments showing by selecting the following item and changing the page number: Break comments into pages with (50) pages.”
Plus, wondered If I’d customized the comment.php page. Which I may have. So, I reinstalled the original comment.php page and changed my “break comments” to 50 and voila! Comments are now all accessible! :)
Thanks again – also for you very simple yet elegant designs. –kp

I like it! I always prefer clean and simple. I think I will try it out on one of my blogs about spirituality.

Hi,
Great theme , thanks :-D
How can i change the date format its currently : 11.22.09
but id prefer 22.11.09 but ideally id like : Sunday 22nd November 2009 .
Is this possible, not sure why the month comes before date :-S.
Thanks
Phil
November 24th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
Hi Phil, to change the date format you have to update your index.php file. Search for this code ‘%m.%d.%y’ and update for ‘%A %d %B %Y’. This should do the trick!

thats brilliant, thanks so much for your help :-D

Hi i just wondered how i can make my archive extend further down the page without keep having a short archive list and a ‘older entries’ link.
Thanks
January 10th, 2010 at 11:31 pm
Humm… Phil, what do you mean by short archive list? Your issue seems solved on your site!
January 11th, 2010 at 3:53 am
Hiya i havent solved it yet, if you click top left ‘January Sales’ link , you will see the list of articles in there, as my menu goes down on the left alot i wanted to make my archives go down more on the page, currently it only shows 7 article titles before you have to click ‘older entries’ , hope i made sense !! Thanks, Phil

thanks nice theme
January 17th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
I like it, thanks, I will back here often…
January 19th, 2010 at 12:34 am
Hey Phil, I got what you need now! To solve the number of items shown per page you need to go to the admin site, settings > reading > change the number of “blog pages show at most” – this will do :)
January 19th, 2010 at 12:36 am
Thanks for the nice comments ^.^
January 19th, 2010 at 4:17 am

THank you so much :-D

Hi,
Have a problem with dates.
The youngest article is always “01.01.70″ (january 1st 1970 !?!)
and can’t replace days and month (it’s a french website : d/ m/ Y).
What can I do ?
March 2nd, 2010 at 10:40 pm
Thanks rainie :)
Kasilla: 01.01.70 is very weird, it shouldn’t happen… anywyas, to change the date have a look on a comment above “update your index.php replacing ‘%m.%d.%y’ to ‘%d/%m/%y’ or ‘%d/%m/%Y’(for 4 digits year).
July 27th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
I had to dip into index.php and archive.php to change the dates to the way I wanted them on my site (%Y.%m.%d).
I also noticed that on the “singlepost” version of index.php (the one that displays a whole single post), the comment balloon was always over the first 2 characters of the date, caused by:
singlepost
Probably a fault in the CSS (I’m not that good with CSS) but I noticed the main page doesn’t cover up the date. I changed the whole line to be:
<div class="storyheader <!–singlepost–>”>
And my single post page displays fine now.

Hi,
Great theme , thanks

Thanks a lot for this great Theme! :)
And thanks for the hint with the date format, worked fine for me.

Great theme!
1. I’m in my hosting package looking to re-order the sidebar items such as moving up “Categories” for my posts and to move down “Blogroll”. I looked in directory file sidebar.php and styles.php without much luck. What files will I find it in? Help!
2. Also, how can I add a line break to put more vertical space between items in the sidebar?
Thanks again!
April 12th, 2011 at 6:58 pm
One more Q.
When clicking on any link in the sidebar, the page moves down away from the top nav bar. How can I correct this please?
May 3rd, 2011 at 8:12 am
Hi,
I am a beginner and planning to start a blog. I liked the Gold Pot theme very much and decided to use it for my Blog.
But, I am really having tough time customizing it as i told u that I am new to it.
I would really appreciate if you can help me sending some detailed information or screenshots in customizing the Menus, pages and links.

your weblog is perfect thanks

Hi Catarina,
I love your Gold Pot theme.
In my current site I have Pages and Sub-Pages. Is there a way to make them appear/disappear in your theme? Or making BOLD or display the main page with a different char the main page?
Also it would be great to keep the header and sidebar fix while you can scroll the content . . . too much work?
October 25th, 2011 at 11:30 am
Im building a site for a customer and like your Gold Pot Theme. Question i have is this, its not really the theme i like but the layout. Sidebar on the left, very straight forward. So here is my delemia, i need the gold to be blue in color. What would be the eaisest, best way to change that. i really dont want to go in and start tearing apart your theme to chaqnge your color scheme so do you have the gold pot theme in blue? or would you be ok with me changing the color myself? or what do you feel i should do here?
Thanks in advance,
TDHelgeson

T. Helgeson: Since you are looking for a blue one, maybe you can use MyJournal Theme:
http://www.etrecos.com/index.php/themes/myjournal-wordpress-theme/
Is very similar structure and it’s blue.
Another thing you can do is to make the the gold pot images blue, feel free to adapt it to your needs :)
