“Magazeen”: Free Magazine-Look WordPress Theme
We love our readers. We respect the hard work of designers and developers across the globe. And we do our best to make the web design community stronger and the Web a little bit prettier. Therefore we ask talented artists and creative professionals to showcase their skills and release something unique and beautiful as a gift to the community. And when designers agree, truly impressive works see the light of day.
Today we are glad to release Magazeen — a free advanced Wordpress-theme in a magazine-llok created by the talented WeFunction Design Agency. This bold magazine 2-col-theme was designed with the main focus being on typography, grids and magazine-look. It was created especially for Smashing Magazine and its readers.
Download the theme for free!
The theme is released under GPL. You can use it for all your projects for free and without any restrictions. Please link to this article if you would like to spread the word. You may modify the theme as you wish.

Inspiration behind the design
As usual, here are some insights from the designers themselves:
“We’ve created the Magazeen theme to try and pump as much style and functionality into a WordPress theme to give people something they might not expect from their standard Wordpress theme. There really is very few limits to what WordPress handle, so we’ve built in a lot of custom features and options to give people a little taste of what is possible, and how some small functionality tweaks can make a huge difference to the overall experience of browsing a blog. On top of that we’ve wrapped all that functionality up in a really cool and modern theme, with nice big title fonts, and a stylish colour scheme.
The Magazeen theme is packed full of cool features to really encourage your readers to explore new posts and similar items. The first thing you might notice is the jQuery image showcase at the top, which is fully automated and will display the image from the latest post, and the title above it without you having to do anything other than define the image URL in the custom field we have created which will appear on in your admin post area.
Drop-Down Menu
The other cool and fully automated feature is the related posts drop down effect. It’s a simple idea, if you click the category of the full posts a drop down will appear with some related posts from that category. And if you don’t see a post you like you can always view the full category by clicking view more.
Sidebar
The sidebar area’s have been created to give you a lot of control over the featured posts, and recent posts. Once you’ve installed the theme, you need to go to your Widgets area, and simply activate the “Magazeen Latest Posts”, and “Magazeen Featured Posts” widgets. You can easily control how many posts each feature displays, and using this widget will ensure the area is styled correctly with the post image showing correctly.”
Footer
Thank you, guys. We appreciate your great work, your attention to details and the brilliance of the execution.

April 14th, 2009 2:20 amHey Guys, all I can say is wow! I’m using this theme and it’s incredible, I have four quick questions…
1. Is there a way to keep the 4 square post snippets on the homepage (underneath the 2 main latest posts) consistent in size rather than fitting to content as it looks a bit messy?
2. Where is the Code to change the colour of the comments counter in the top left of each post snippet.
3. How do I change my horrendous avatar its on every site I post on?
4. where can we donate some money for your hard work
Thanks
Chris

April 22nd, 2009 5:48 pmOkay, I’ll admit it: I’m totally lost. I figured I would be downloading code that I could apply in Word Press. However, although I have downloaded and unzipped all the files, I’m not seeing anything I recognize, or any instructions.
I have looked around your website for guidance, but I don’t see any. Am I missing something majorly important, like certain programs that will open these files?

April 27th, 2009 9:23 pmDoes anyone know whether you can publish an article without the big image displaying, but for the thumbnail to still generate for the top and side navs? I’d like to do this for selected articles only, for example… if I embed a video, I don’t want a big image and a big video player displaying. But I do want the thumbnail for the article to appear in the Featured News panel. Thanks.

I bought a domain name but i dont know all the css and wordpress coding. Please any help or advice is greatly appreciated. adam1test@yahoo.com i would love to learn as much as i can im on this site constantly. Thanks again.

May 7th, 2009 2:29 pmI have to say that this is the best Wordpress theme yet. Well to me at least. The one problem I kept on having was the thumbnail image issue that a lot of people seem to be having. I think that the majority of the people that continue to have this issue might be doing what I kept on doing. I now feel dumb for doing it, but being new to Wordpress, I didn’t know better. Here is the wrong way I added the image. I would add the image to the body of the blog. As that turns out, that is not what you do. What you need to do instead is upload the photo to your site, using wordpress. Then get the URL for and then put that URL in the Magzeen Post Options. That took me hours to figure out. Sometimes we just try to make things more difficult than they have to be.

May 12th, 2009 3:27 amGreat theme!
Just one question though:
How can I change the height of the images in the “post-image” class?
Because once I add an image then it cuts off parts of the image.Any help appreciated :)
Thanks

May 16th, 2009 1:58 amI noticed that there were several people who had issues with the dock thumbnail rollovers not working properly. I had the exact same issue but only after I installed the WP-Slimbox2 plugin for viewing images within a post.
I think it had something to do with both plugins using jquery and defining their own versions of the same js function. Check your rendered blog page source to see what other js code is referenced just prior to the code used for the Magazeen template. Either way, I was able to get the dock rollovers working again with a slight mod to the header.php file.
Basically, I just put the Magazeen js references *after* the wp_head and it fixed the problem for me. I tried to paste the before and after code snippets in this comment, but that didn’t seem to work, so if you’re interested in the fix, just email me at dale[at]blitzedmag[dot]com and I’ll give it to you via email.
I’ve tested the functionality of the WP-Slimbox2 and it still works fine after my slight mod. If you’re using other plugins or js code that are competing with the Magazeen js code, then your results may vary.
Good luck. And thanks again to Smashing and Function for the great theme!
Cheers,
Dale- 277
November 27th, 2009 7:14 amThat fix worked perfectly, makes sense to – the theme .js should be loaded after the WordPress head code.
Awesome, and thanks for posting your fix here – sure beats the “disable plugins until it works” mentality :)

May 17th, 2009 3:21 pmHi All,
Having a super frustrating problem with my mod of this theme. I fixed it once but was silly and didn’t make a note of WHERE. D’oh!
What I want to do is move the post content (the entire post) over to the left a little bit and maybe move the sidebar to the right. Problem is, I can’t find WHERE in the CSS allows me to do this. I’ve tried just about everything.
If anyone can help, that would be GREAT.
Thanks!!

May 22nd, 2009 9:40 amGreat theme, thank you for making this available.
To those who have noticed the issue where hovering over the Latest Articles thumbnails sometimes causes the text to overlap with the article names, there is an easy fix: Open the functions.js within the js directory and change the fadeIn value on line 19 from “1000″ to “100″. All this does is speed up the fadeIn animation of the text and solves the overlapping text issue.

Great theme otherwise.
- 289
June 4th, 2009 3:12 pmThanks so much for the theme.
Also, I’m having a problem with a bunch of the default widgets not showing up. I can’t activate the following widgets: Archives, Links, Recent Posts (which I don’t care about because of Magazeen’s custom widget), and Recent Comments (which I certainly care about). These things are super important, and I hate to have to install some crazy other non-wp standard plugin to manage our simple blogroll. Any thoughts?
- 290
June 8th, 2009 6:53 amI am also having an issue with the comment dates – all comments use the date of the post regardless of the actual dates of the comments. I noticed that @Hahn did post a solution but the code he inserted in his comment does not appear. Does anyone have a fix for the comment-date issue?
Thanks, and great theme!

Maybe someone can help me with a little problem? Would be great. It seems that the jQuery Latest Image Showcase won’t work correct with Firefox 2.x.x.xx (checked with different versions) and IE 6.0. The text (post topic) will be showed over the thumbnail and not above.
You can see this on the screenshot: http://tinyurl.com/magazeen-jquery

July 22nd, 2009 1:37 pmAdvice to all: download Firefox. Download Firebug (Tools – Add-ons – Get add-ons). Use the ‘Inspect Element’ feature to find the code you’re looking at, edit it, and then find those same lines in the css in wordpress. Simple, easy, great fix to anyone looking to change the colour theme, size of comment boxes, etc…
Hope that helps someone!

What are the steps to do so?????
- 328
August 9th, 2009 6:59 amYou need to download an image, not to insert in the article, but in the “image” when you write your article.
If you do not have a picture, the thumbnail will have a problem ! - 329
August 11th, 2009 3:32 pmGreat theme, but I wonder if there will be a fix for IE7 bugs in the near future.

- 331
August 15th, 2009 11:11 pmThanks for a great theme.
Have one question though, i would like to be able to link directly from the “front page” to a external website by clicking on the image (such as http://www.notcot.org does) does. But when it makes a thumbnail it automatically create a link to the blog post on my own website (as most people of course would like it)
I have looked in the coding of the app but can´t find a good solution to this, does anybody have an idea on how to solve it?
Thanks in advance /Johan - 332

- 336
August 17th, 2009 7:40 amIs there possible to make image in post with original size?
- 337
August 19th, 2009 5:18 amYes its possible..
To make an image in post its original size you need to open up the file ’single.php’ and find the following code:
“image_value”, true ); ?>&w=225&h=246&zc=1″
replace that with:
“image_value”, true ); ?>&w= imagesx($image);&h= imagesy($image);&zc=1″
I was all happy with myself for sussing that until I realised that there is still no fix for comment dates error which makes this theme almost useless. All comments added to a post show the wrong date (the date that the post was created)! Check out the themes demo and you’ll see this.
Without a fix for that basic function, who would seriously want to use this theme??
- 338

August 22nd, 2009 1:19 pmWow! This wordpress theme is sooooo awesome!!! I’m a new blogger, figuring out how to use wordpress and such. I just add your theme on: http://www.halfemptywallet.com.
What are the best steps you could recommend for someone that wants to play around and change the colors on this theme? Thank you again!!

August 22nd, 2009 9:45 pmFor people who still having problems with Dock Thumbnails i found a solution…
Instead of using “TimThumb.php” I use “imgsize.php” Mike Lopez script (http://tech.mikelopez.info/2006/03/02/php-image-resize-script/)
Upload imgsize.php in the template directory (where “TimThumb.php” was)
Then, modify the line codes in the index.php, header.php to match with the new script syntax.
FOR EXAMPLE… in “header.php” where you have:
“<img src=”/timthumb.php?src=ID, “image_value”, true ); ?>&w=69&h=54&zc=1″ alt=”" />”
you have to replace that with:
“<img src=”/imgsize.php?w=69&h=54&img=ID, “image_value”, true ); ?>” alt=”" />”
You don’t have create a folder with CHMOD 777, it’s not necessary (i didn’t do it and it work fine, by the way i don’t know where image are saved on the fly jejeee)

August 22nd, 2009 10:33 pmGuys,
I have installed the theme and have almost got it to work perfectly while it’s FILLED with plugins! It took me a few days but now everything seems to be working except from 1 thing!
The comments!!! Everytime I try to post a comment, I get to a blank page ++++ 2 comments that have been submitted and approved are not showing! Do you have ANY ideas as to how I can fix that? It’s such a small thing, but as you very well know, commenting on a blog post is a VERY important function so it has to be fixed or I won’t be able to use this theme! Please help.
Thanks in advance!
- 342
August 25th, 2009 6:05 amGreat theme! i love it, check out what I have done with it at http://www.citygeisha.com
I have a few questions though:
1) how can I add an image in the header bit (in the black blank bit)?
2) the comment date is always the same. the publish date will be august 1st for example, yet comment dates will always be the publishing date even if comment was made two weeks after. How can I fix this?
Thanks very much in advance.

August 27th, 2009 6:29 amHello guys,
I am new to wordpress..My thumbnails are not showing in the top of the page.
I follwed older post but still it showing error….please fix it..it would be great for me..
- 346
August 27th, 2009 4:09 pmHi
Still having major issues with thumbnail linking at the top of the page and and the recent articles. I’m new to computers and a crap with programming. I’m had to google CHMOD and cache – to give you an example of the simple terms I need.
tried removing “www.” to no avail.
Thanks
- 347
August 27th, 2009 9:24 pmActually the most amazing thing is that the developers never stopped for a second to read the comments, particularly the date comment bug. I’m no developer, but I’ll do my best to try to fix it :P
Sorta sad because it’s a great, great theme! :D Congrats
- 348
August 28th, 2009 5:47 pmPhilip Downer #216 – you solved the image loading problem….
Sort of bush league of Smashing Magazine to give away a template that has such obvious bugs…. let alone the lack of a readme file which they clearly link to in the post edit area….
- 349
August 30th, 2009 8:44 amCan you tell me if this theme is ok for Wordpress 2.8.4?
Thanks a lot
http://www.clementlepetit.com - 350
August 30th, 2009 6:56 pmTO FIX THE COMMENT BUG READE PLEASE:
1) open “functions.php”
2) Search “the_time” and change it to “comment_date”… so now you have “comment_date(’M j, Y’)”
3) That’s it… comment bug fixed :D
- 351
August 31st, 2009 11:18 am@luxladee: Regarding thumbnails on top: I had to delete the cache folder, manually create a new one and then set appropriate permissions (777). When created by the plugin/script, the cache folder won’t work on all servers, even with permissions set to 777. Some server security issue, mayhaps…?
To get the dynamic titles to work, move the javascripts in header.php below the wp_head entry. I know this has been stated before, but thought I’d mention it again. Not sure if it has any side effects, though…
@misterclem: I’m using this with WP 2.8.4, all working nicely.
@dlv: Thanks for the comment fix! :)
How about porting this theme to Thematic, will that be a difficult task?
- 352
September 2nd, 2009 1:57 am@eiv: Many Thanks for your answer.

September 4th, 2009 4:24 amhi, sorry for my english because im french.
installing the theme was very well spent,
you can check it here : cyclonesmag.fr
but i got a big problem, i don’t find how to use sIFR on it, because when i use it on “”, the title disappear, and i don’t know why…
someone can explain me how to do that? - 355
September 4th, 2009 4:27 am“when i use it on h3 title”, sorry :-)
- 356
September 4th, 2009 3:26 pm@alone92 If sIFR don’t work… try using font-face css property. It doesn’t work in Ie, but yes in FF and Safari. You can see an example here, look at the titles : http://www.demianvillanueva.com/blog/
- 357
September 5th, 2009 6:04 pmI see alot of questions about the title of the post doesnt show up when rolling over the thumbnails at the top of the page (or the dock or the jquery section). i have the latest WP, and deactivated all other jquery plugins with no resolution. someone please help. this is a very important part of the theme I believe. please advise.

@RandomJan: I check it. First I wrote and doesn’t show any new comment. But, I check in admin panel and I saw that Askimet catched my testing messages like spam. I accept them and new message are alive now (my blog is under constructions, so you can see this test message in some posts). Do you have Askimet enable? It catched your messages like spam?
@alone92: yes jejee, IE don’t support font-face (here i have WinXP + IE7 and it render my custom font.. it’s rare jejeee), i told you.

September 14th, 2009 7:44 pmTO FIX DOCK TITTLE’s:
This is my dock-javascript code that you can see working on my website (not finished 100% yet.. the link is on comment #355), this is inside “functions.js” file.
This isn’t my entire javascriptn file of course, just the dock:
$( function() {
$( '.category' ).click( function() {
$( this ).toggleClass( 'active' )
$( this ).siblings( '.dropdown' ).toggle();
$( this ).find( '.indicator' ).toggleClass( 'indicator-active' );
return false;
} );
$( '#dock > li' ).stop().css('opacity', 0.5);
$( '#dock > li' ).hover( function() {
$( '.latest' ).stop().fadeOut( 'fast' );
$( this ).stop().children( 'span' ).fadeIn( 200 );
$( this ).stop().css('opacity', 1);
}).bind( "mouseleave", function() {
$( this ).stop().css('opacity', 0.5);
$( this ).stop().children( 'span' ).fadeOut( 200 );
} );
$( '#dock' ).bind( "mouseleave", function() {
$( '.latest' ).stop().fadeIn( 500 );
} );
});
I’ve change the position of the tittles (under the post-images), I did it with CSS.
I hope you fix it. Also, it’s rare, the first time I installed, all animations (included titles) work nice.@julie To see me on twitter, my user is “dlv_” .. you have to got a twitter account of course :)…then, you can follow me typing twitter.com/dlv_

September 25th, 2009 5:15 amHi thanks for this amazing wp theme!
I downloaded the .psd sources thinking slices would be shown so that I can change colors easily and save the image files perfectly but it’s not the case.

September 30th, 2009 8:56 pmI seem to be having the same problem many are experiencing with the thumbnail images not displaying.
I’ve gone through all of the comments and attempted all the fixes, but somehow it’s not working. (I swear I’ve aged 10 years trying to get this theme to work. LOL.)
I tried using the imgsize.php, per #339, but this is what the code in my header says:
<img src="/timthumb.php?src=ID, “image_value”, true ); ?>&w=69&h=54&zc=1″ alt=”" />
ps: there are no images in my cache folder. this is not supposed to be, right?
Thanks.
- 391
September 30th, 2009 9:01 pmwhoops, that code should be:
<blockquote cite="<img src="/timthumb.php?src=ID, “image_value”, true ); ?>&w=69&h=54&zc=1″ alt=”" />”>
- 392
October 1st, 2009 8:59 am@Paul: yes, imgsize.php script doesn’t create or need a specific folder to resize images on the fly (that is what I see, i’ve asked to the author but i did’t recive an answer about that)
If it help, my link/image code in dock are is:
<a href="” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to “><img src="/imgsize.php?w=70&h=70&img=ID, “image_value”, true ); ?>” alt=”" />
Anyway, change “&” to “&”… “&” doesn’t validate…

October 2nd, 2009 7:50 amI’ve been using Magazeen successfully for several months but I’m suddenly getting the same error message as boylogik above (Feb 29)
Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in ……./wp-content/themes/magazeen/functions.php on line 107
I’ve disabled all plugins and still get the error so it’s not a plugin conflict. Anyone have any ideas? I’m using WP 2.8.4, but I’ve been using it for awhile and the problem only emerged today, so i doubt that’s the issue either.
- 394
October 2nd, 2009 8:03 amWell I found a solution, although I can’t guess why it worked. I disabled the “Featured News” widget, then reinserted it. Voila – all’s well with the world.
Go figure.
- 395
October 5th, 2009 8:05 amHmmm….still a little flaky – all seemingly related to the Featured Posts widget. No clear solution – I finally just disabled it :-(
- 396
October 5th, 2009 8:48 amI tried a lot of things desperate to make the thumbnails start working(including the cache permissions), and then I tried the “workaround” that Philip Downer wrote and it worked perfect!
–cut–
For those of you having difficulty getting thumbnail images to show up, try this:
Instead of placing the full URL (http://www.your.site/wp-content/uploads/image.jpg) use a relative URL that begins at the /wp-content/ directory. In otherwords, your new image URL would be /wp-content/uploads/image.jpg – I made this simple change and it works great!
– /cut–Thanks! And thanks to Smashing and Function for a great theme!

I need a little help modding the Comments Tab, please.
Here’s an image indicating what I mean:
http://tinyurl.com/ycwg4krCould someone point me in the right direction for the CSS on this?
My email is kiki77 (at) comcast (dot) net — but I’ll be checking back on this page, also for any posted answers.
I’m just not sure if it would it be a style.php + comments.php combo mod, or style.php only. I have this theme perfectly tweaked, other than this and I just don’t want to mess anything up.
I’m familiar with CSS mods, but if you have the answer, the more specific the better and VERY appreciated.
Thanks so much.
- 400
October 9th, 2009 8:59 pm@Christina: to remove completely, just open style.css, find “.comment-count” and add “display:none;” to that class. The comment count will be not visible.
Another way is to remove totally from the “.php” files, for example open index.php and find and delete “”
You’ve to use a conditional PHP snippe to remove the tab when there are 0 comments; take a look at this, you could addapt it to your situation: http://is.gd/4b6TU

October 16th, 2009 1:07 amWow, seems like a lot of people are having problems with this theme. I have had my theme up for over a week now and it’s working fine. I did have some thumbnail issues but found the solutions in the comments on the developer’s site: wefunction.com
But it is a fickle theme, and does not work with some plug-ins and widgets. You can see the theme in action here: Life Without Limits. Not sure if I will keep this theme though. It looks unique, but again I’m not too sure about the look and color.

November 2nd, 2009 9:07 pmI wonder if anyone has come across this and can help me.
I have implemented this theme on a linux server, and have even reinstalled it completely, trying to make the images work. If I upload an image using Wordpress, it will add the image to the cache folder.
But when I try to view the blog, timthumb.php (and imgsize.php as per other posts) always look to the uploads/year/month folder for the images for the post, and for the header.
For some reason, the images are not dynamically added to that folder, but they used to be…I believe that was on a Windows server… Is there something I need to do, or something I’ve missed that might make this not work?
The document root path is home/SharedServerUsername/public_html from the server, whereas in the past it would have been just under the domain name folder. But I can’t find anywhere in any of the code that places the images into the uploads… folder that I can change…
Can anyone help?

November 13th, 2009 3:20 amHi all,
What is the custom field you have to use in order to generate the image thumbnails in the post page. For the Lastest articles dock at the top.
Cheers.
- 414
November 13th, 2009 6:44 amI’ll answer my own question,
You use the custom tag,
image_valueI ripped out the timthumb.php script. not needed if you can resize your own thumbnails. seemed to create too many problems.
- 415
November 19th, 2009 5:10 amThank you for making such a wonderful theme!

November 21st, 2009 8:28 amCan you help me…
How do you limit the number of posts displayed on the blog page. Tried limiting it in the Admin panel…BUT it doesn’t work.
Need your urgent help as I am facing a deadline…
Is there a workaround in the coding? - 417
November 23rd, 2009 10:15 am@Wergittep: I have no idea… sorry
@lee: yes, the custom field where you have to paste image url is “image_value”. Anyway, you have a field called “Magazeen Post Option / Image” between Custom Fields area and Post Text area, there is supose to paste the main image url…
@Dexter: Open Index.php, then find “query_posts( ’showposts=2′ );” in line 16. The number “2″ is the number of post displayed full on front page.
Then, find “query_posts( ’showposts=4&offset=2′ );” in line 102. The number “4″ is the number of post displayed as thumbnails below full post. The number “2″ is the offset ( this number is gonna be the same as in line 16 that I’ve mencioned before).
- 418
November 24th, 2009 9:53 amNice Theme. :-)
I figured out the problem with the thumbnails on the first page. I think it depends on the uploaded image size. Images greater than (example) 3000×2000 doesn’t work. But pictures with the resolution of 1000×600 (example) work fine. Maybe there is a limit of maximun seizure. (perhaps 1024×768) ….
And now i have an other problem. If you want to click and read an article, the picture on the single page won’t fit into the layout, its too big. (Check: resenski. de)

Anyone who made a complete fix on that theme and wants to share???o___O
Maybe I´m just trying to find another theme to work with…

December 2nd, 2009 6:56 pmDoes anyone know whether you can publish an article without the big image displaying, but for the thumbnail to still generate for the top and side navs? I’d like to do this for selected articles only, for example… if I embed a video, I don’t want a big image and a big video player displaying. But I do want the thumbnail for the article to appear in the Featured News panel. Thanks.

December 9th, 2009 2:44 pmOkay,
For reasons best known to myself needed to reinstall this theme and now get others above keep getting the error message:
“Warning: file(/home/griffinm/public_html/antidote/wp-content/themes/magazeen-wordpress-theme/style.css) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/griffinm/public_html/antidote/wp-includes/theme.php on line 180
Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in /home/griffinm/public_html/antidote/wp-includes/theme.php on line 180″
I realise that I’m possibly putting the PSD documents as an image somewhere but after much toying about don’t seem to be able to correct the error.
Thanks in advance for any help with this newbie(?) error …

December 14th, 2009 7:50 pmGreat theme.
But why can’t I use the custom field/ thumbnail maker on Pages? I’ve got content that needs to be on pages and I would like to reuse the same mechanism and styles to get my thumbs to show up right on the pages. (default adding images in the text in this theme does not give me any margins or styles – the images even push out of the white content box if the page text isn’t long enough)I can grab the php from single.php and put it in the same place on page.php, but beyond that I don’t know enough PHP to customize the bit in functions.php where the custom write panel is defined so that it will apply to pages as well. Can someone walk me thru this? It seems like a little bit of effort that would make the theme that much more useful.

December 18th, 2009 3:23 pmSolution to thumbnail problem is easy. Here are the steps:
Upload image – do this by going to dashboard – media – add new
Then – find the file url (at the bottom of screen) – and copy it. Click save.
Now go into your post and find the box MAGAZEEN POST OPTIONS. Paste the file url here.
Publish file and JOB DONE.
Easy peasy :) - 427

I just started another blog — finally design one.
But I have a question : if I am adding my photos through media and they will appear as my thumbs as well, what should I do with the additional video image ?Please, take a look at : http://martaspendowska.com/blog/

Thank you for such a great theme — love it totally!

January 17th, 2010 4:47 pmThis theme is excellent, but I can not add divs in this template.
I want to insert a div with a bakcground, but after writting in in the CSS and putting the in the sidebar or somewhere else, the image doesn’t appear. It seems that it is something about the cache. What must I do with the cache folder?

January 27th, 2010 10:11 amYou can view my personal Blogger adaptation of the “Magazeen” Template at:
Blogger Template: “Social Magazeen”
Among other differences there is a row with Social Media Buttons on top, substituting the original jQuery image showcase, which displayed the image from the latest post, and the title above it.

February 2nd, 2010 1:45 amHi I have a small problem with this theme. I’ve changed the permalinks having set a static homepage – they now read victoriaanndesign.net/postname. Since I have done this the images in the latest articles section don’t link. Where can I change this in the code? I thought it would be simple but each time I think I’ve got the correct area to change it doesn’t work.
Any help would be appreciated!

February 4th, 2010 5:42 pmHey guys, love the theme, I am constantly trying to tweak it,
I am trying to work out a post rating plugin that wont effect the top preview flashplayer bar. Usually when you waver the mouse over these pictures in the bar it will show the name of the article, but when I install a post rating plugin, it seems to stop. Anyone recommend a compatible rating plugin?

February 8th, 2010 3:05 pmHi,
First of all, thanks for such a great wordpress theme.
However, I have a problem with main page customisation on my website http://www.darcva.com.
Somehow, it doesn’t shorten the first 2 articles on the main page and displays them all (how to change it???).
Secondly, why the dock function of displaying article’s name doesn’t work?thanks

hi guys,
to show up the thumbnails, what custom field does it use?
my precious theme uses thumbnails too, under the “Thumbnail” fields…
the question is, how do I edit theme to match the custom fields with ones I’ve made before?
ps: sorry for my bad english….I’m still learning :)
