Theme: Ocean mist 1.2 Author: Ed Merritt URL: www.edmerritt.com This document contains instructions on how to get the most from the Ocean Mist Theme. Before we start, it's worth installing Widgets from http://automattic.com/code/widgets/ Wide or Narrow Columns. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posts are now displayed in full width rather than the original, narrower format to accomodate images/videos which are too wide for the narrow column. Incase you wish to revert back to the narrower format I have included 2 versions of the homepage (index.php) and the post page (single.php). To swap to narrow columns, simply rename index2.php to index.php and single2.php to single.php. Incase you ever want to swap back, it's probably worth renaming index.php and single.php first so they are not overwritten. Pages ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pages can be displayed either down the sidebar, or as tabs accross the bottom of the header image (default). If you have more than about 5 or 6 pages, or are using sub-pages, they'll need to be displayed in the sidebar. To display pages down the sidebar, rename header2.php to header.php and sidebar2.php to sidebar.php. Again, rename the original files incase you want to revert to tabbed pages at a later date. Categories ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By default, categories display at the bottom of the main column in a 3 column list. If you use sub categories, these will not be displayed by default. To display them, categories will need to be displayed in the sidebar as a regular list.
