StudioPress WordPress Theme Released

by Daniel in — 291 Comments — Updated — Reading Time: < 1

Update: This theme was replace with Genesis Pro.

We have another WordPress theme ready to go. StudioPress is a very clean theme, and it comes with the possibility to integrate several AdSense units.

Here are some of the features of the theme:

  • AdSense-ready: The theme comes with three units integrated already. A 468×60 unit on top, a 336×280 unit on top of the sidebar and a 120×600 unit on the bottom of the sidebar. You just need to copy & paste the AdSense code on the specific php files.
  • Widget-ready: The theme supports widgets, so just drop the ones you use.
  • Comment styling: Comments alternate with a different background, making it easier to follow the conversation.
  • “Welcome” section on the sidebar: You can customize a “Welcome” or “About us” message easily through the form on the “Theme Options.”
  • Search Engine Optimization: The theme comes with title tags optimized, and it already displays only excerpts on archive and category pages, to reduce the duplicate content.

If you have any problem using the theme or any suggestion for improvements just leave a comment below and we’ll try to help.

  1. Hello,
    Is it possible to place a logo on the StudioPress blog, say in the upper right hand corner instead of having the RSS Feed message?

    Thanks,
    Kirk

  2. Well done because Studiopress has to be one of the most professional generic templates around. It could suit literally thousands of different topics which is precisely why I’m downloading it

  3. found the solution, thanks, I saw somebody also asked so what I did was ading this code to the css file.

    img.alignleft, div.alignleft {
    float:left;
    margin:0 0.5em 0.5em 0;
    }
    img.alignright, div.alignright {
    float:right;
    margin:0 0 0.5em 0.5em;
    }
    img.aligncenter, div.aligncenter {
    text-align:center;
    margin:0 auto;
    }

  5. Hey Guys,

    Great theme, I love the design. I think I’ve found a bug though.

    I’m using a Plugin called ‘Page Link Manager’. What it does is allow you to not show Pages that you create in the navigation area.

    The page I don’t want shown is ‘Registration Confirmed’ at the top of my page. I’ve unchecked it in Page Link Manager, but it still shows.

    Also – centering images is an issue.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Eric

  8. Yes papabear. Index.php and home.php are the exactly the same file. If you simply delete/rename home.php WP will automatically use index.php. I have done that with my installation and it works great.

    I am very puzzled as to why the author had two exactly same files.

  9. can we change the template to use index.php instead of home.php. I have a program that would only run if the code is installed on index.php.

    please help

  10. Hi! I tried to replace the adsense blocks with clickbank banner ads but the size of the merchants banners don’t fit in the blocks. How would I get around this to make it fit? I’m a newbie to all this so sorry if the question sounds stupid to some people. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

  12. Hi. I’m testing this theme on a test domain (resultater.net) and it looks real good! 🙂

    But are there any plans of language support?

  15. After couple of months, I found out that this theme uses home.php file instead of index.php file. All this while I was trying to use index.php and no matter what I changed, nothing use to happen.

  16. Can anyone tell me how to limit the number of postings on the first page to only 8 instead of the 15 that currently show.

    Thanks,

  17. Great Theme…

    1: I was wondering if anyone has an example of code to change the header to include an image either as a complete background where the black is or between the title and the rss feed. I feel that this is the only thing missing from the theme. I’ve tried to replace some of the images, but it never looks good because of the way it was written.

    2: Anyone figure out an exact code change to limit the number of posts on the main page?

    Thanks to anyone that takes the time to help me out, I am almost satisfied with the theme except for these last two items I can’t figure out.

  19. Hi. I really enjoy the look and feel of this theme. I just viewed by site, and noticed that all except the two most recent posts appear on the home page as bold and italic when they hadn’t before. When you click on the title to go to the article, they appear without the inadvertent bold/italic as they should.

    Have you seen this before or know what I need to do to change the text back to plain?

  21. I love this theme however I am having a little trouble. I have two additional pages that I do not want my sidebars to show up in-I am new to this and the last theme I was using actually had a link for me to eliminate sidebars on the pages I chose. I don’t see that this is possible with ease on this one. I am not a techie, so please, step by step instructions would be best. So many useless answers out there for those of us who are not familiar with writing code. Thanks for your help.

  23. We recently moved to a new site with bluehost and imported wordpress, we are using this theme and like it. The problem is the issue with IE. We cannot get it to load in IE. What can we do to fix this situation?

    Reply

  24. I’m baffled as to why there isn’t an easy option to change the page menu tab order at the top. I see possible fixes for excluding certain pages, but why no fix for changing the tab order?
    PageMash only works for the sidebar menu.

  25. I noticed that also the links in the footer don’t work.
    How can I fix this problem? Any idea’s?

    I have this problem only in the header and the footer.

    I really want to use this theme so any help is welcome.

    Best regards,

    Thomas

  27. Hi Daniel,

    Great theme!

    I have a problem with the “Grab our Rss”-thing.
    I placed my feedburner url around the image like u said, updated but when I click, nothing happens.

    CODE:

    <img src=”/images/grabrss.gif” alt=”grab our rss feed”>

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanx for help!

    Best regards,

    Thomas

  29. Daniel,

    I just installed the blog (have a few problems to still fix with images, etc.) but my main concern is:

    I don’t like how the “Comment” shows up near the post title. How can I move the “Comment” down to below the post and additionally have all of the comments showing up below that post??

    Hope you can help.

    Thanks for a great template. One of my resolves for 2009 was to change my theme and this one fit the bill (with the exception of this comments issue).

  32. Another way to exclude pages from the tabs at the top of the page is to exclude sub-pages, you do this by only generating tabs for pages with no parent. All other pages must be sub-pages of one of the top pages.

    Change these lines in ‘header.php’ from:

    if ( ! $these_pages = wp_cache_get(‘these_pages’, ‘pages’) ) {
    $these_pages = $wpdb->get_results(‘select ID, post_title from ‘. $wpdb->posts .’ where post_status = “publish” and post_type = “page” order by ID’);
    }

    to

    if ( ! $these_pages = wp_cache_get(‘these_pages’, ‘pages’) ) {
    $these_pages = $wpdb->get_results(‘select ID, post_title from ‘. $wpdb->posts .’ where post_status = “publish” and post_type = “page” and post_parent = “0” order by ID’);
    }

    What I have done is to add ‘and post_parent = “0”‘ to the SQL-query so it only returns pages on the top-level, then you don’t have to edit ‘header.php’ every time you want to add another page-tab.

    I hope that helps somebody.

    But another problem is that the theme is totally messed up in Internet Explorer 7, I hadn’t checked that until I read it here, as I mainly use FireFox.

  34. Great Theme Daniel, I adopted it to my blog. Could you please send me the psd of grabrss.gif in SPANISH.

    Thanks in advance.

  35. Yes Mark, you’re absolutely right. It does the same with me in firefox as well.

    By the way, Daniel, is there possibly gonna be any update of this theme? Perhaps a quick fix as to how we can enable threaded comments which comes as part of WordPress 2.7?

  36. On Firefox, the feed button acts up.
    When you try to put your mouse over it, only certain parts of the button is clickable. Do any of you noticed that?

    Great tip! However, i think you mean that replace the XXX with the pages you want in your tabs since the code tells wp the ID of your shown pages. All other pages will be hidden.

    Am I right?

  42. Here’s a tip for all the people looking to remove some tabs from the top of the page:

    First, find out what the ID of the page that you want to remove is. The easiest way is going to the page editor and opening the relevant page; the URL will contain the parameter post=XXXX. Remember this number.

    Then, open the file header.php in your StudioPress theme directory. Find the line that starts with $these_pages = $wpdb->get_results. Near the end of this line, you’ll find this piece of code:

    and post_type = “page” order by ID

    Add the text ‘and ID XXXX’, substituting the page ID you want to hide for the XXXX. So for example, to hide page 689, the entire line would become:

    $these_pages = $wpdb->get_results(‘select ID, post_title from ‘. $wpdb->posts .’ where post_status = “publish” and post_type = “page” and ID 689 order by ID’);

    You can hide multiple pages by repeating the “and ID ” part.

  43. Hi!

    I just love the theme, however, i also have the issue with the tabs. I have tried some of the solutions in this post but i cant get it right.

    If I try to change the code in header.php I get an error. One suggestion was to “change the number 9” or something like that, well, if I have more than one page that I want to exlude, how do I do that (changing one page didnt work either…)?

    Has anyone found a good solution for this issue?

    I really hate to abandon this theme, but if all of my subpages are showing in the top menu tabs, im afraid I have to…

  45. Is there a way to remove the “Comments Off” on the home page?
    Where it has Date>> Category>> Comments Off
    over the individual posts list…

    Thanks!
