Updates galore!
Posted at 12:56 am, August 28th, 2005 by DanielGotta love the word ‘galore’ really, haven’t you? Awesome. Great stuff. Just added my calendar working (finally). It took flipping ages to find the necessary code and even longer to find exactly where the code was supposed to go! It’s because Michael Heilemann (creator of the awesome Kubrick theme - upon which this blog is based) didn’t see the point of the thing (I just happen to think it looks nice) and hence removed it from the theme. Since I spent so long looking for it - I thought I’d do the right thing and help you lot out, just in case you need it too! For the code, please check the comments for this entry! Make sure you put it within list tags otherwise it’ll look odd. If you don’t know what file to edit, it’s called sidebar.php and it can be found within your theme directory (e.g. /wp-content/themes/default/). You can then choose where you want to put it. Experiment! See what happens - just make sure you back-up first!

Whilst I’ve been mucking about the calendar, I’ve also been knocking the rust off meh photoshop skills (the .psd file is provided by the aforementioned Michael Heilemann) and then you can change the colours and the header image and whatnot. Unfortunately I don’t have a decent enough image suitable for the header so until I find one, it’s staying dark grey. What do you think about the colour scheme by the way? I quite like it but I admit that a bit of colour wouldn’t go amiss. I like the blue of the links and (as suggested by the lovely Marie) a bit of orange could look really cool. She also suggested electric pink. But we’ll leave that one where it lies.

The code should look like this:
< ?php _e('Calendar'); ?>
< ?php get_calendar(); ?>
