Announcement: Breathe Version 2.1

I have just released Breathe version 2.1 which includes a lot of changes under the hood.  The most exciting thing is that there is a Breathe Option page located under the Appearance tab.  The options page will enable admin change the site more easily without having to know CSS and PHP.  Have a play around an see if you like it.

If you are a Google Adsense affiliate you can add you adsense code straight into the Options page boxes.  You also have the option of showing ads at the top and the bottom or only ads at the top and not bottom or vice versa. Get it very versatile…

If you need help are get stuck I have whipped up a Help Forum so take look or add a question to get help.

The Style-2.css page is to make changes to your CSS if you want without altering the original code. Neat stuff…just find the CSS that you want to change in the original stylesheet then copy it and paste it into the style-2.css.  Make the changes, delete the things that stay the same and viola the change has been made but can be undone as easily as deleting the style in the Style-2.css.  I have an example already where I make the ads at the top of my page centered.  Delete the top ads text align:center; and it will be positioned left.  Give it a go it is awesome….

What else can I tell you! Just get your hands dirty and give it a go see how it goes for you.

Enjoy the theme  and let me know what you think.  I love positive feedback…

    Hey man,

    I’m messing around with Breathe, great theme, but I’m curious… how would I make the post preview show more than two lines?

    Thanks.

    By default the_excerpt is used in the index.php so it will show the first 55 words of the article on the front page. If you want to show more words you can modify the default by reading this codex article http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_excerpt alternatively you can install the Advanced Excerpt plugin and nominate more words through the plugin. Option 2 is the easiest and the one I recommend.

    Hey,
    I love your theme, but am having trouble getting text to wrap around photos in posts. Any experience with this?

    No I have not had this problem. I have checked out your site and it seems to be wrapping around images fine.

    Hi Paul,

    Great theme! I’m having one issue though.

    For some reason the author box at the bottom of every blog post is skewed to the right and overlapping the sidebar.

    Any idea how I can fix it?

    Also, is there any way to set the blog page to display the entire post as opposed to an excerpt?

    Thanks!

    I love your theme. I’ve been using it on my site. Is there any way to close the space between the paragraphs a bit? It just seems like a lot of white space from one paragraph to the next.

    Thanks,

    Sorc

    Perfect theme! Thanks very much. Very useful features in the backend (design options/Google Ads integration), just working on adapting it for my new blog http://thefandroid.com. Thanks again for the nice work!
    Cheers

    Are you saying they won’t scroll down? Anyway to reduce the header height do this. Appearance>Editor>Styles.css . Find
    #header {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    width: 950px;
    height: 245px;
    clear: both;
    background: url( images/header.jpg) left 45px no-repeat;
    }

    Copy and paste into style-2.css
    Change height:245px; to height:100px; or whatever height you want.
    Save the changes. Refresh the browser F5 to view the changes. That is all. Hope it helps.
