Could you release Golden Grey for blogger.com? I like it very much. It’s the best theme I have ever seen.

Henry: It will take a few weeks since I’m a bit busy at the moment. However, anyone is free to use this theme and convert it to their blog software.
Thanks :)

I love the theme but how do I get the times back when I posted everything as it does not show up?
4. William Pramana 28 Mar 2005
hterry, Sorry I don’t get what you mean by getting the times back when you posted everything.
Please explain to me, hopefully I could help you. Thanks for using my theme.

I’ll have to show u examples as I’m not exactly sure more how to explain it ;)
On your main page, it has (Golden Grey Theme
March 23, 2005)
Now what I was looking for that is on the classic theme is the date and time the post was written to show up like at this blog http://www.technosailor.com/ which shows the day/time the post was made.

Hterry: You need to find in the index.php and then change it with at
It will create something like: December 2, 2004 at 10:36 pm

I’ve modified the minitabs to show one category of links instead of my pages. How do I get the 4px border-bottom to show up under the appropriate link?

Hey William -
I too dig Golden Grey… Nice work.
I’m using it for my blog AND for my normal “pages”. I really like the top navigation, and how it populates automatically.
Trouble is, I’m importing a number of pages INTO the WordPress pages… and I’d like to get rid of the right column.
I’ve modified the template to have a “page” template with no right column; Is there any easy way to get it to work with the theme?
Anyway, thanks much for your hard work on this.
13. William Pramana 12 Jun 2005
Daniel: Perhaps you can create page.php inside the theme folder and create a one column in there?
Thank you for using the theme, I’m glad you like it :)

Hi William -
You know what, that’s exactly what I did… I just didn’t know how to do it.
I read up on the WordPress Wiki, and figured it out.
I’ll let you know when what I’ve got is a bit more finished.
Thanks again!

Okay, I got my site up and running decently, using Golden Grey.
http://www.secretcreatures.com
I had a good number of challenges (randomizing the header image, making the header image link, getting rid of the sidebar for pages, hiding the sub-pages from the menu) but I got it working somehow.
Early on, I deleted the tag in my Pages template, which screwed up the margins of the comments section. Took me a few days to figure that one out. I was going mad.
Anyway, thanks again for your cool template.
