Dee, apologies for a lack of response — I had missed out on a whole block of comments such as yours that were awaiting a response (in fact I just wrote a WordPress plugin to make sure this doesn’t happen again). If you still need help with the above, see this blog post: http://ahren.org/code/bit/how-to-add-an-image-in-the-ahimsa-theme-header.

Mike, apologies for the late response. You can customise the colours of the theme using the built-in “skins” feature. Be warned: you have to backup your skins before you upgrade the theme, since the WordPress upgrade process wipes out all files in the theme directory. If you want to do more extensive changes, your idea is not a bad one: you can either create a new directory with a different name and copy over all the files and edit them. Or if you are more adventurous you can create a child theme. Instructions for the latter are here: http://op111.net/53 (you can also do a Google search for “WordPress child theme” to get more relevant pages).

Mojtaba, I am certain I responded to your comment but now I don’t see it! Apologies! The “Feedback” button is not part of my theme. It’s from Get Satisfaction — you can get a similar widget by signing up at http://getsatisfaction.com/. If you are still interested in the Download button please let me know. The image is part of Ahimsa and I can give you details on how to add it. Page navigation is an idea that has been requested multiple times. I will examine the plugin and consider some ideas of my own as well. I am not sure of the timeframe though.

Javier, apologies for having missed your comment. Please let me know if I can still help. What you want can be easily accomplished using a custom.css file in your Ahimsa theme folder, in which you can add the relevant CSS. The background has two colours and a stripe, and I need to know which one (or all three?) you want to change.

Steve, apologies for the late response. I had completely missed out on a bunch of comments and yours was one of them. There isn’t an easy way to make the sidebar and the title the same width (though I think from a visual/design perspective its a good idea and I have always wanted to do that). One way is to set both of them to the same width, but that might be too restrictive.

An earlier comment informed me how to make the sidebar wider. That’s great, but I’d like to make the blog title the same width as the sidebar. How do I do that?

I love this theme. I spent a long time trying to find one that was pretty, colorful, and simple, not flashy. Love the color options, it is tedious trying to customize them, but it’s great for a start. Can’t wait for future updates!

Hi,
Thank you for your beautiful wordpress theme!
I have some question about it!
The first one is about \Feedback\ button (Right side of your blog)! How can I add this to mine?
2nd, how can i add the download button (as download button on top of this page) to my posts?
Last question is about \PageNavi\ plugin! Is it possible to integrate pagenavi with ahimsa theme?!

Thank you!
