Hello magpress team,
I have the redtone theme in operation for my website for a week now, but i have one little problem.
When i make a new item (example: http://www.piccaz.com/2009/12/10/l-a-carshow-2009/) i want it to open the new website straight from the frontpage, without entering the post first!!
Is that possible?
Please let me know as soon as possible,
Gregor van den Bosch
Admin: Numaga.com/piccaz.com
Afterwards we can do something back for you guys in a promotional kind of way;)
Hai Gregor, I’ve sent you an email with the modified theme attachment. Please try it out and let me know the result. Remember to use “url1” without the quote as your custom field name and enter your desired external url on the custom field value of your post. That’s all, please try it out and let me know the result. Thanks.
Thnx Ronald for fixing Piccaz.com.
Today i started on a site for the dragrace community of Holland, and i just might use another magpress theme!
Thnx Ronald, your theme and your help are great!!
Hi,
I`m already using 2 of your themes for my blogs, and now I`m working on another one. I think RedTone is the perfect one for me 🙂
My question is whether I can modify the footer / not removing the links! / in order to open the page in new window? In the way it is now it will redirect the user somewhere else where he/she doesn`t want to be and will close the window. In that way we both loose a visit – I because of the redirection, and you or your partner will gain bounce rate for the same reason…
Hai Boris, please redownload the theme. Upload and replace the footer.php and functions.php only. I’ve added a target _blank on the footer links so that they’re open in new window.
Please let me know if you need more help. Thanks.
I really like this theme, but I changed the footer (I wasn’t attempting to divert credit just change the wording), since then it has hijacked my entire site… how do I go about fixing this, and again I’m not trying to divert credit just change the footer around so that it flowed differently… Thanks for you help and I love your themes…
Hai Jon. Please redownload the theme and upload the default footer.php back. Thanks.
I did so and it worked… thanks… won’t mess with the footer again… :p
Hi Ronald,
You have a great theme that offers lots of functionality and is very flexible. Thank you for all your hard work.
I am wondering if it is possible to edit the navbar, so that the text and box size is smaller. I have looked through the header file and tried to find the right stylesheet entry, but haven’t had luck.
Hai, Scott. I’m glad you like using my theme. Regarding your question, if you want to edit the page navigation bar, you can do it on the dropmenu.css inside the theme’s css folder.
Please let me know if you need more help. Thanks.
Hi!
I just want to say thanks for these great templates. Very, very nice work!
These themes are perfect!!
Hi Ronald.
I have used the redtone theme for my blog for a week.
I want to modify the layout of it from 3 columns to 2 columns keeping total width.
How can I do?
Hai, Jake. Please download this Redtone 2 Columns and only replace the functions.php and sidebar.php. Please backup any manual modification you made on your current sidebar.php if any. Please try it out and let me know the result.
Thank you for your kind responses.
I will modify the width ratio of main body and sidebar because my purpose is to enlarge the width of main page.
If I suceed, I will let you know and give the source.
Have a good day.
Hi,
Your theme looks great. I liked the color combination. I’ve a query.
Is it possible to use the theme simply as a blog? I simply want to list my posts from top to bottom with adsense loop in between.

How can I remove the thumbnail images in each post of the home page?
Hi,
I have been using this theme for a while now, but am still having problems with the thumbnails showing in Internet Explorer.
They work fine in both Firefox and Chrome…
Any idea what I can do to fix this?
Thanks for a great theme!
Just found out that I can not set thumbnail hight or with yo auto for it to show in correct porportions. So for the moment they look a bit odd, but I can live with that ’til there is a soulution for “auto” in ie8.
thanks for sharing… i want to try it immediately…

salam sejahtera selalu untuk team Magpress
Your theme looks great. I liked the color combination
Are you crazy ? This theme is great man! I think to use in my blog!
Good job!
I wanted to know how do I set the navigation to point to my categories? I have a few navigation tabs that I would like to turn into Topic areas so when the user clicks on “Topics”, it will show the posts that I setup under the category, Topics.
Hai. You can try changing wp_list_pages to wp_list_categories inside header.php.
That worked!!!! You’re a genius! I read a ton of forums and support issues online and not one could solve this issue easily. This is a great template and now that it is this easy to make menus is wonderful! Everyone reading, check out http://blog.urbanmelodies.com (still working on it) to see how you can make navigation menus that can go directly to your categories. It will allow you to have posts directly for that link. Excellent!
Thanks Ronald! You need a donate link on your site.
This themes is perfect, recomended wordpress themes i was built on my website above.
Hi, Ronald. I´ve been using your theme for three months and I have a question. I saw in the example´s blog that you can put 10 post with his respectives thumbnails in the index. I installed the theme and it only appear 8 posts (4 pairs). Where can I change that?
Thanks. Your theme is perfect.
Raúl.
Hai. Have you setup the number of post to show on blog by going to wp-admin > settings > reading > blog pages show at most. Thanks.
Good theme, I like, thanks for sharing

Thanks in advance
Paul
hi paul
open functions.php and add this line
[php] if ( function_exists( ‘add_theme_support’ ) ) { add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ ); }[/php]
then open featured.php line 39+ and replace
[php]<img src="<?php echo get_featured_slider_image(); ?>" class="full" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />[/php]
to
[php]
<?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail()) {
$large_image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(), ‘full’); //large or full
echo ‘<img src="’ . $large_image_url[0] . ‘" class="full" title="’ . the_title_attribute(‘echo=0’) . ‘" />’;
}
?>
[/php]
that should let the slider to use post thumbnail fulll or large.
