Coffee Time Theme

This is a theme I put together based on my favorite beverage, Coffee (and thus it’s name…) It is a two-column theme with the main sections, posts, comments etc., on the left, and the menu options, pages, links on the right side. See it in action here.

It uses a little bit of JavaScript to balance the two columns to make them equal height but other than that it is straightforward and simple. I have commented the sidebar as to where you can alter/add more entries. The header also has some commenting in it to remind you to enter your description and keywords, and for the blog title and description.

Installation

First, this theme requires 1.5+ Once you have downloaded the theme, unzip it and:

  1. Upload the unzipped theme to your wp-content/themes/ directory.
  2. Enter your Admin panel -> Presentation and select the theme.

Frequently Asked Questions

None so far! It is a simple unzip, install and off you go. You can edit the theme as you wish (it IS commented a little bit). If you have any questions, you can comment here.

Hey Richard,

This is a neat template. Not too busy, you know.

In the comment area, a smaller font would keep the lines from wrapping. Unless the wrapping was intentional.

Above all, Thanks!

richard says:

Where does it wrap zane? If the comments are too long? I’ll take a look into that. Thanks for your comments, glad you liked the theme!

Eric says:

I don’t know squat about css, so this isn’t really a criticism because I don’t know how to fix it…

But the last theme I had… he had SOMETHING in the CSS that when I linked an image in an article, it scaled it to the article boundaries automatically.

I imagine it’s probably just a stylesheet declaration, but if you could figure out what it is, I would be in heaven.

Great theme!!

Eric says:

Ok. So I’m not a complete idiot. I found the chunk of CSS in the other template and copied it over and now the images scale perfectly. This is the chunk.

– cut here –

/* Images */
p img {
padding: 0;
max-width: 100%;
}

img.centered {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}

img.alignright {
padding: 4px;
margin: 0 0 2px 7px;
display: block;
float: right;
}

img.alignleft {
padding: 4px;
margin: 0 7px 2px 0;
display: block;
float: left;
}

To see an example of what I’m talking about look at this article on my site: http://poweredbycoffee.net/?p=672 Before I changed the CSS, the submarine covered the whole desktop when the article loaded.

Sure I could resize the images before I upload them to my web server. But I’m lazy. :-)

rich says:

Hi Eric, nice to read you, glad you’re using the theme.

Did you get the image scaling sorted out? Does that problem exist in Coffee Time?

Laurie-Ann says:

That website above is just my blogging site with my other domain name forwarded. My new one is not up yet.
My question is? I downloaded your theme because I love it & I have most of the templete showing on my wordpress but no images,what must I do to use the images?

Hi Laurie-Ann and welcome!

The theme should work without having to alter anything. Just check though, inside the style.css, any reference to the images should look like this:

background-image: url(images/testimage.gif);
