  Hi,
  I am in the process of moving my blog to a new hosting service and updating to the latest wordpress release and decided to change theme. I discovered your Autumn Concept and really like its layout and colors.

  I am trying to add an html text widget to the right hand side but when I do, the image it displays, overlaps the calendar instead of just bumping the calendar down. ? Do you know if this is an issue with this theme?

  Is it possible with this theme to replace to image in the header. I’ve used a photo of Sunflower from my garden for a long time on my blog, although this photo on the theme is very nice.

  Thanks,
  Tony Lorenzen

  @Tony: the colours and header image are designed to be customised in this theme - not sure how much you know about css, but take a look at the first section of the css file and have a play - it should be pretty straight forward.

  As for the text-widget, just add this line to your css file:
  .textwidget {display: block; float: left; width: 100%;}

  Hello Ed,
  My client (link above) liked the look of your theme, so I’m customizing it. He’s very happy with the look in IE, but the header graphic is collapsing in FF. Right-clicking to “view background graphic” opens the image by itself in the window, so the link is correct. Image and JS settings in FF are default. Returning to the original stylesheet doesn’t fix the problem. I’m at a loss where to look for a solution. Hoped you might take a look.

  Hi Lynn, it seems a bit cheeky to remove the credit link in the footer and then ask for my help with the theme, but I’m feeling nice today…

  The image has collapsed because you’ve removed all content from <div class="cols03"> which dictates the width of the header.

  The fix is simply to remove the class from this div so it no longer floats left.

  Thank you, glad I caught you on a good day.

  My cheeks are ample, good guess. I haven’t removed the link, it’s simply commented out because I’m not putting my link there either, and I don’t want people contacting you for help with the site. I figure anyone with enough savvy to be interested in the theme will know to look at the source.

  with appreciation,
  Lynn

  PS: For the sake of anyone who has the same issue: the diagnosis was correct, but removing the div class didn’t quite work. I added some content to the , in the form of a non-breaking space. Yeah, a hack, but it looks good now. Love the way the header resizes to fit the window!

  I would like to put an adsense script into the sidebar area of the Autumn Concept theme. As a quick aside, I love the theme. I am new to modifying blog themes and may be making naive and foolish mistakes, so please forgive me. Is there a specific file I need to paste the java script into to apply the adsense? Thanks in advance.

  Hello Ed,

  I’m translating Autumn Concept to French. If you want, I can send it back to you when it’s done, so that other people can take benefit of it.

  I’ve done all text translation, but now, I’m stuck with the buttons translations. Which font did you use in the images ? Can you send it to me, if it’s a windows font ?

  And thank you for the great job. Your theme is just beautiful.

  I like the theme you created and I am planning on using it on my web site.

  I would like to know how to make the pull down menu (child of page) work on IE6. It works in IE7 and Firefox however.

  Also, where can I get instructions documentation?

  The Usage Instructions link on this page
  http://edmerritt.com/wordpress/?page_id=49
  returned an error.

  Regards,
  Luen

  Awesome theme, I love the relaxed feel it has.

  I was wondering though, with the latest releases of WP, is there any way to integrate the prepackaged widgets with the sidebar you put in? I love the drop down archive menu but there’s no way to keep it in the sidebar.

  Hi! I like your theme and would like to use it for a personal website. But I would like to use WordPress strictly as a CMS and not as a blog. How can I remove the top part? I don’t need anyone logging in. Also, I have tried to disable comments, but for some reason the “Comments” buttons won’t disappear completely - some parts of them would still remain visible. I have never used WordPress before and this is my first attempt to use it as a CMS. Thank you.

  Hi,

  Love the theme all in all!

  Having some trouble with images inserted in posts - text wraps around them no matter what I do, and images wrap around each other if they’re small enough. I thought it was my coppermine bridge, but the pics display correctly in the WP default theme, so I’m guessing its probably something in the way the content floats for the post text?

  I’m only learning to do CSS; any suggestions on quick edits that might stop the photo wrapping?

  Hi Ed

  I am a total novice to Wordpress but want to use your Autumn theme for a new look for my website. As it is customizable, I want to use one of the other pictures provided, or even my own for the head banner. Your link on usage instructions just take me to your web where I can not locate the instructions. Pleas help!
