Usage
How to edit the Intro on top of each page?
If you wish to edit the introduction on top of each page, go to Dashboard -> General and edit your ‘Tagline .
How to edit the About section in right sidebar?
If you wish to edit the about section in the sidebar on your right, go to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Editor and select sidebar.php. Edit text and replace the image by your own. Alternatively, you can also delete it completely then go to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Widgets and add a “text” widget to enter some information about yourself.
How to edit banners in right sidebar?
If you wish to add/delete banners in the sidebar on your right (under the section “Our Sponsors”), go to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Editor and select sidebar.php.
Note: you will have to upload your images to your server before editing the code.
How to edit the Logo? Do you have the original PSD file?
No, I can t give you the PSD file for a simple reason: I don t use Photoshop!
Divyun created a PSD file for your convenience:
This theme has been entirely designed in Fireworks 8. The original PNG logo file is included in the folder “LOGO - Original PNG File“. To edit the logo, visit their site and download their trial version.
When you are done with editing, export your logo as a jpg image to the folder wp-content/themes/oneroom/images and save it as logo.jpg. Click “Yes” when prompted to replace the image.
You are almost done! Now open header.php in a text editor (e.g. notepad) or browse to Appearance -> Editor from the WordPress dashboard and select header.php. Find this code (I have slightly changed it since then so it might look a bit different for you):
<div id="logo">
<!-- Your Logo image - max-width: 200px -->
<!-- USAGE:
1-create your own logo and save it as logo.jpg in the folder "images" in your theme folder.
2-uncomment code below:
<a class="logo" href="<?php bloginfo('home')?>/" title="Back Home"></a>
-->
<h1><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
Uncomment code to show your image and delete the line below (or comment it if you think you might want to use it later on.)
Note: The font used for this logo is Fontin and can be downloaded here
Else?
If there s anything else you would like to ask me, leave a comment below and I will try to do my best to answer you. Please, only ask question related to the theme itself. If it is a question related to the installation or configuration of a WP theme, consult the WordPress forum or the Codex.

Unfortunately, there s no easy way to do so. You must edit the background image first, resize the sidebars and then content (or main column as you call it)…

Is there a way to show a summary of posts followed by a “Read more…” on the home page rather than the entire post?
jeeremie

Sure. Just click the “Read more” button in the visual editor or write <!-more-> in the HTML editor.

Instead the sub-page shows up along the top of the pages just like a parent page.
Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, I know. This option was not supported in Oneroom but now we have added OneRoom to the WPSynergy project and we have already created a new ticket to support subcategories. cheers.

hey. after downloading your theme (1.0)the “trackback/pingbacks” functions still does not show, even in the “source code” that part remain blank..
the rest is great, now i m using a the newset version (1.0.1) translated ans with some modifications by me, and still the same “bug” with trackback !
jeeremie
17 May, 2010
Tracbacks/Pingbacks work just fine. Check at the bottom of this page. Are you sure you have enabled them in Settings > Discussions? You must check “Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.) “
serpa
19 May, 2010
Yes it is ENABLED! Every possible mistake I checked before I ask you.
I really don t know what is going on!
Here is the code that I m using for trackbacks/pingbacks:
__________________________________
functions.php
/* Custom Trackbacks/Pingbacks template */
function mytheme_trackbacks($comment, $args, $depth) {$GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment; ?><li id=”li-comment- ><?php printf(__(‘%s ), get_comment_author_link()) ?><li id=”li-comment- ><?php printf(__(‘%s ), get_comment_author_link()) ?><?php }
_______________________
comments.php
<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?><?php if ( ! empty($comments_by_type['pings']) ) : ?> <div class=”post”> <h3 style=”margin:0px;”>Trackbacks / Pingbacks</h3> <ul> </ul> </div><?php endif; ?> <?php else : // this is displayed if there are no comments so far ?> <?php if (‘open == $post->comment_status) : ?> <?php else : // this is displayed if there comments are closed ?> <!- If comments are closed -> <?php endif; ?><?php endif; ?>
___________________________________________________
Hope this can help you helping me

I don t know what s going on either. As I said, it works in WP 2.7+. In your code I see two things that are missing but maybe that is just WordPress that removes it from your comment
In functions.php, it is not <li id=”li-comment-”> but <li id=”li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>”> :
<?php }
/* Custom Trackbacks/Pingbacks template */
function mytheme_trackbacks($comment, $args, $depth) {
$GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment; ?>
<li id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<?php printf(__('<b>%s</b>'), get_comment_author_link()) ?>
<?php comment_date('j M, Y') ?>
<?php edit_comment_link('edit','[ ',' ]'); ?>
<!-- Trackbacks/Pingbacks description is disabled by default. Uncomment it if you want to use this feature.
<br /><small class="grey"><?php comment_text() ?></small>-->
<?php }
And in comments.php:
<!-- Trackbacks/Pingbacks -->
<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>
<?php if ( ! empty($comments_by_type['pings']) ) : ?>
<div class="post">
<h3 style="margin:0px;">Trackbacks / Pingbacks</h3>
<ul>
<!-- To theme Trackbacks/Pingbacks, open function.php -->
<?php wp_list_comments('type=pings&callback=mytheme_trackbacks'); ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
I am sorry to ask that, but have you also enabled “Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page” when you edit a page or post?
Serpa
20 May, 2010
yes sure I have.. the 1st thing you mentioned was there… was because my php code generator for plain text.
I tried EVERYTHING !!!
my wp version is 2.9.2 EN… really dont know! does not even show the h3 tag with the title :O

About your screenshot, I understood you enabled it under Settings > Discussions but I was wondering if you did for your posts and pages because you can set it individually when you edit a post or create a new one. Under the visual/html editor, there is a panel called “discussion” with two fields:
- Allow Comments.
- Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page.
Is the latter checked? I guess you did but we d better make sure. When something is not working it is very often because of a little thing we forgot to configure.
If it is not that, then I really have no idea what can be wrong. Have you tried to install OneRoom on a different or new WordPress install?
serpa
20 May, 2010
well I REALLY find this strange! the pingbacks are working but the trackbacks are not! I tested with the default theme of WP, and the pingback is showing as comment, although when I use your Theme (even WITHOUT modifications) it does not show anywhere !
Even a new WP Installion didn t work out! i tried every fix that I could remember and found on the Internet, nothing so far!
I m about to give up on this :S

11 Jun, 2010
You have to open sidebar.php to add the links to your ads. Please note that if you add any widget to your sidebar they will disappear. Something I will have to fix later.

This feature is not built-in. If you want to enable it, in archive.php change (line 48):
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<a class="more" href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">More »</a>
… for:
<?php the_content('<span class="more">More »</span>'); ?>

Hi Jeeremie,
Love the theme and have enjoyed installing it on my blog and ‘tweaking bits.
Please can you help me with the sidebar widgets?
I ve installed some plugins and have added them to the sidebar. However, not all seem to get added or work properly (e.g. NextGen slideshow). Also, the other sidebar segments remain in place. Do they have to be deleted from the code to remove them? There is also mention in the code of needing dynamic_sidebar pluging installed. Can you help with this?
Thanks very much - great theme and brilliant that you provide support too!

Content that you add manually to sidebar.php will disappear if you add a widget under appearance > widgets.
DaveB
8 Jul, 2010
Thanks for the prompt reply Jeeremie,
So if I want to just use appearance>widgets to manage all the content on the sidebar, please can you tell me what I need to do to sidebar.php?
Thanks again for your help.
jeeremie
11 Jul, 2010
To add widgets from dashboard, an if statement must be added to sidebar.php (if you open this sidebar.php, you will see it):
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
[...content here...]
<?php endif; ?>
Any content that is within this function (eg. “[...content here...]“) will disappear as soon as you add a widget under appearance -> widgets. If you don t want it to disappear then move your content before or after this function:
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?><?php endif; ?>
[...content here...]
DaveB
12 Jul, 2010
Thanks Jeeremie - I will try that.
On another note, please could you help me toreplace the logo? I m a bit of a novice so when I triedto ‘uncomment the code it totally changed the alignement of the header. I ve saved my new logo as suggesed, but need help with the following:
<!- USAGE:
1-create your own logo and save it as logo.jpg in the folder "images" in your theme folder.
2-uncomment code below:
<a class="logo" href="/” title=”Back Home”>
->
<a href="/”>
Uncomment code to show your image and delete the line below (or comment it if you think you might want to use it later on.)
How do I uncomment exactly? I ve tried deleting -> and the line below but no luck!Could you paste the new replaced code?
Thanks again for your help!

Hello Jeeremie,
First of all, I d like to say: Thanks for the great theme. It s the best one i ve found in free and paid themes. I ve been using it for a long time for all three of my blogs.
My Question: Is it possible to remove the sidebars on the pages (page.php)? I need the whole content area (left sidebar, center content section, and right sidebar) to be my content “playground”. I know how to customize the background image to make it look like one area, but can t figure out how to make the content stretch from edge to edge. Is this controlled in the styles.css file?
To Summarize: How can I remove the sidebars and widen the content area to where the sidebars were?
Your help is much appreciated.
William @ AnglerWise

yes, you will have to edit style.css. There is no easy solution.
