Effercio Blue
Well, the time is here. As promised yesterday, I’m releasing Effercio Blue into the wild. You can snag it here:
A demo of the site can be found here.
Obviously, I’m expecting there to be issues. If you happen to find any that make the theme unusable for you, please let me know.
The theme includes:
- Support for Wordpress Tags (a new feature in Wordpress 2.3)
- Support for Dynamic Sidebar and Widgets
- Custom Link and Archive Page Styles
- Inline Asides*
If you’re wondering what the rationale behind the name is… effercio is Latin for “stuff”, and that’s what my site’s all about… Anyway, I hope you enjoy the theme! Let me know what you think!
Addendum
- (10.05.07) - Added Effercio Blue to FreeWordpressThemes.com
- (10.03.07) - Released 1.0.1. Fixed issue in
header.phpwhere Home link was not working properly. - (10.02.07) - Effercio Blue was featured on Weblog Tools Collection.
- (09.05.07) - Inline Asides can be enabled by creating a category called ‘Asides’. The logic’s already in place on index.php to handle the special formatting for it. If you do add it, you’ll simply need to make one (OPTIONAL) modification to your sidebar.php file. (It hides Asides from the category list.) I use Asides to post links that I wouldn’t normally do a full post on.
<?php wp_list_categories('title_li=&show_count=0&exclude=ASIDECATEGORYID'); ?>
Enjoy!

Sweet….this tempts me to switch my theme. Now you’ll have to come up with another one for yourself b/c you’ll see this one everywhere.
Awesome! Thanks for releasing this into the wild, Chris! I’ll be playing with it this weekend and let you know if I find any issues.
Can you do me a huge favor and tell me what plugins you use for your own site? If not, I understand… I just like some of the things you have here. Thanks!!
Hi Chris,
I’ve implemented it at my site http://www.christhis.com and have a few issues so far.
header.php line 42
replaced with “/” since the link was
http://www.christhis.com/ChrisTHIS!
instead of
http://www.christhis.com/
that one is fixed
Still working on this one… is there a plugin I’m missing?
archive page
http://www.christhis.com/archives/124/every-kid-should-have-an-apple-iic
Get:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_tags() in
wp-content/themes/effercio-blue/single.php on line 25
That’s actually a call to a function that’s available in Wordpress 2.3. (It’s currently still in Beta.) Removing it should solve the problem if you’re using an older version.
As for which plugins do I use … I don’t mind answering that. I’ll actually write a post on it…
Thanks! I commented it out, but I am going to go ahead and upgrade to the latest version while I’m at it.
WOW! Thanks Chris… I’ve implemented your template, upgarded to the 2.3 beta and all is well. I still have a lot of tweaking to do but I’m off to a great start. Thanks so much for making your template available. It is sooooo much better than what I had before.
Found another odd one… in single.php I found this:
<script src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/cdharrison?i=” type=”text/javascript” charset=”utf-8″>
Not sure what it does, but I replaced cdharrison with “thischris” which is my own feedburner
Ah, I missed that script call… I’ll remove it from the uploaded files. It’s for the Feedburner blog stats stuff…
im gonna try this out on new blog: somuchcrap.com
The background looks like toilet tiles.
In general, it is the most beautiful theme I’ve ever seen.
Thanks?

I downloaded the theme but it said the zip file was corrupt.
@Paul B. It extracts just fine for me. What are you using to try and extract the files?
Winrar 3.71
I downloaded it on my other computer and it worked. Thanks.
