i like your themes. it’s very greats
Hi I really love your theme Channel
I am fairly new to WP. I have used Blogger for the last 2 yrs. Quick question if I want to download, upload, activate any of the items on the theme options panel I go to the next page that is completely blank except for “Security check” in the left upper corner? Can’t figure out how to activate these very needed snippets?
Thanks for the help and Merry XMAS
Jakolien
Do you have a live demo to show and let me check?
To install the theme properly, you need to deactivate all plugins(especialy the limit-post and flickr-rss plugin) first, then start upload/activate the theme package and the plugins that we included in the theme package.
Merry Christmas!
Hi Roy,
= http://www.sokrates-academy.com
that helped, 2 other things, my footer widget are doing strange stuff on the bottom and is there a way to get dropdown menu’s for this theme? I need the site for a biz in e-learning. Site (under construction
Thanks again!
Jakolien
And also on more thing (If I may
) How do I change the title and tagline. I have done so in WP but it is not showing. (I must say I kinda feel dumn again after mastering blogger quite well 
)
Hello Jakolien,
Your site looks good! Where did you get this slider? To change the title you need to change the logo image in the file
This is exactly what I’m looking for. Fantastic!
Thanks!
Happy New Year.
Hi, When i embed youtube video’s, I cant see thubnail on post in home page. its doesnt show thumbnail only the home page. but when i click post its ok. Any idea’s?
Lasantha
The Channel theme doesn’t support video thumbnails.
Is there a thumbnail tag that can be used to specify the thumbnail picture in the post box of the home page?
Hi Roy,
I was wondering if there was a way to specify the thumbnail picture in the postbox. Great theme by the way. I love the simple look.
The thumbnails are selected from the first image in the posts.
Hi Guys, I am kind of new to this FYI. I have been unable to get the Footer Widgets to show on my page as the Live Demo shows. I have the option check to “Display Widgets on the Footer” on the Theme Options page. I also clicked “no” one time to see what that would do, and know all the side widgets will not show up either. Please help if you can, I love the theme and want to get it working.

Hi.
When I click on the category name (in the category list menu) it only lists 10 posts of that category. Is it possible to have it paginate for the user to be able to view all of the posts under the category?
Thank you
I figured it out. I had to install page-Navi….Thanks
I am having a problem with the thumbnails where most of the time it does use the first image in the post. When I upload the first image, it will display that, but then when I upload the second image, the post box will change and display the second image.
I also have the same Problem.Could someone please help me to solve this..
Did you fix this?
I found out the “problem”. The theme does not look at the first picture in your post but the first picture in the your post’s gallery (which is somehow the last one that was uploaded)
İt’s Great!
I can’t seem to get the Thumbnails to work..
does the images need to be hosted in my space before thumbnails will show up?
Yes, the auto thumbnail function works for internal images only.
I cannot get thumbnails to work at all. I insert an image from a URL into the post but no thumb shows. Anyone, help?
Hi, the auto thumbnail function doesn’t support external images.

Yes.
Thank you for this great theme. I have one thing to ask how to get this theme localized in another language (arabic). thank you very much
Hi,
I have problems with the footer of the theme, this is positioned on the right side next to the widget, probe disabling plugins, even delete the page footer and not change anything. even modify the css sheet.
please help, thanks!
Thanks a TON for the awesome theme! I found it yesterday and have set up nearly my entire blog within just an hour or less worth of work. Pretty sweet.
Quick question: Is it possible to add a footer menu to the theme? Y’know – disclaimer, legal notices, advertising options, etc.
Thanks again!
Hi again. Don’t mean to be a bother but ditto to felipe’s footer issues. Anyone got a solution?
Please submit your questions to our forum, thanks.
How can reduce the number of articles with pictures that appear on the first page ?

Thanks
Hi this is a fantastic theme!
There is a way to see the posts as the default in wordpress like this website? http://www.anecdotario.net/ that uses this theme?
Thanks!

I have installed Channel Theme, but there is some problem when I have submitted more then 10 post blogs, but at the end of 10 post there is no view means more pages references like [Page 1 of 2] [1] [2] [...] [last>>] this not view, what should I do?
Regards…
You need to install and activate the WP-PageNavi plugin to have numeric pagination.
Thanks for this amazing theme. I’ll use.
Glad to see you like it.
why i couldn’t see the “threaded comments” when i am using this theme? do i need to install other plug-in for this?
NOPE. You just need to enable the “Threaded Comments” option at WP-Dashborad -> Settings -> Discussion
I transfer my blogger blog to WP, all images i have in picasa.com, please tell me what should i do in this theme to show external images.
please suggest something
Hi, sorry but the auto thumbnail function do not support for EXTERNAL images.
Hey,
nice theme!
I’m considering to use it for a school project where students of journalism would publish their articles.
I was just wondering if I can modify the this theme (design, code) to be more useful for our purposes. I didn’t find anywhere the license for this theme so I don’t know how far I can go.
Is this theme totally free so I can modify it how I need?
Sure, you are free to customize it.
Hi Roy,
When I uploaded the theme i couldn’t activate it because wordpress said the theme is broken because there is an error in functions.php.
Is there any solution for that?
Hi, please deactivate all plugins before install the theme, also submit the error message at our support forum, let me help you there.
Hello Roy
In home page, post thumb images will crop not resize, can you tell me, how can i resize the image not crop in home page.
Thanks
Thanks for this. Looks great!
Thank you for this wonderful theme which was so easy to customize.

Hi, thank you interested in the theme. Could you submit your issues on our support forum? We don’t handle theme issues here.
Very great theme!!!
Hi Roy, awesome theme!
I was wondering if there’s a chance to modify the size of the auto thumbnail for the posts. In the css i’ve modified it from 80px X80px to say 265 x 80. Works but it stretches the image that automatically is 150×150.
any clues?
Thanks heaps!
