Before submitting a question
Make sure that you went through the installation guide that comes along within the zip file you downloaded. If the answer of your question is there, please check faq section. However, if you still can’t find the answer of question, submit it as a comment on this post.
Installation
Upload and activate plugins
Upload the content of plugins folder into your wp-content/plugins directory. Log in to the administration panel and activate the Wp-Pagenavi and flickrRSS (if you dont want to use photo album section, do not activate the flickrRSS).
Configuration of Flickrrss
While you are in the administration panel of WordPress, click on Settings>flickrRSS write your id number to first row. On the second row, chose user from the dropdown menu, item using 7 – square images. Do not change anything else, scroll down and click on Save Settings.
Getting necessary hacks over theme files
Create your categories for Featured (top section with three entries), bottom left (entertainment) and bottom right (other news) sections.
Lets say that you’ve created four categories that are Featured – Entertainment – Health and Technology. You want to display all entries that belong to the featured category on the top, Entertainment on the bottom left and all the other category entries to be displayed on the bottom right side.
Check this post to find out how to get category ID’s.
Setting up featured section
Now open index.php file with a text editor find the following snippet.
<h4 style="margin-right:15px;">Featured entries</h4>
<?php query_posts(’cat=3&showposts=3?); ?>
Cat=3 is the place where you need to edit. Change the number 3 to category ID of your post that you want to appear on the top section of the theme. Also, you can replace Featured entries text with something else that you want to appear above the entries.
Setting up bottom left section
In the index.php file, look for following code of snippet.
<h4>Entertainment</h4>
<?php query_posts('cat=4&showposts=3'); ?>
Change the Entertainment title to something else that you want to. Replace the category ID for with the one you want to be displayed on the bottom left section.
Setting up bottom right section
We are carrying on with editing of index.php
<h4>Other News</h4>
<?php query_posts('cat=5,6,7,8,9&showposts=7'); ?>
On that column, I display multiple category entries. Make sure to seperate two categories ID numbers with a comma.
Writing entries
The images on the featured and bottom left sides are custom fields. The key for featured section is top, for bottom left side is bottom.

I cant get pictures to show up on the home page. I am uploading within the post. I can see the images if I go to the “read more” tab, but not on the home page. Any suggestions?
Nate. please google the “wordpress custom fields” for main page pictures. The main page pictures are displayed via custom field feature of wordpress

Hi! Thanx for the nice theme. I have the same problem with the sidebar.php – can you send me the current file or better: post it here on your website?
The link to the installation guide does not work. Any hints?
And: how do I get images on the featured entries (top page)?
The image problem is solved: just use “userdefinied fields” with the key “top” and as content the url to the JPG.

“Yes the link is no longer valid, but installation guide is embedded into post”
David said: “What post?” Be more specific–provide a LINK that leads to somewhere useful… There is no installation guide for this theme anywhere, neither is an installation guide contained within the theme’s file, which is should be. If there is a guide, kindly lead us to it.
Post. is this post. Please look up guys. Dont you see a title as “installation” ?
It is right below the Paypal Donate image. Please read post through before submitting a question
