Wordpress Widgets Plugin

Wordpress Widgets Plugin was released on March 29, 2006. Widgets are an easy way for you to arrange and rearrange your sidebar to your hearts content without touching a line of code. This feature is similar to “Sidebar” in Typo. Unlike Typo, Developers can develop their own widget.

In order to use widgets plugin, you must update your theme to work with widgets. I have updated my Golden Grey theme to work with Wordpress Widgets Plugin. The updated version can be downloaded from http://wpram.com/files/zip/goldengrey.zip.

If you use my theme and would like to use the Wordpress Widgets plugin, please update the theme. I also included a screenshot of the theme so a preview can be seen from the presentation menu in Wordpress.

Wow!!! Thank-you for the update!! You know my wife and I love your theme! Its so simple but looks ‘full’. I’m going to updated now.

Just a quick request; were you able to update it so that we can add and remove links from the ‘manage links’ page?

Many thanks for your continued support!

I’m using your goldengrey theme w/ widgets, and it seems somehow the links widget isn’t displaying properly. Please drop me an e-mail & I’ll explain further (you can see the behavior on blog.finearrrt.com)

Hello,

first i must say , that your theme is absolutly great;)

ok , hope u can help me with 2 problems in the theme. both are at the navigation bar. is it possible that the navigation bar comes a bit higher, so that the white field around issn`t there anymore and everything is gray. here is an example:

i have changed in the css sytle.php the pixels from the navigation padding from 15 to zero , first i thought , huh , it works.. but then i saw the mistake when i go over the links at the mainpage , nothing works correctly. hope u have any idea 2 fix that.

and the second problem is , that i want some categorie links into the navigation bar. thats not the problem i copy this line into the index.php

and it works perfect. but u can see it at my page if u click the “release or the newz” button. that the line under the links are grey and not white like the others if they are selected.

may u can help me. and sorry 4 my bad english, hope u could understand everything;)
