This is yet another theme site, created by Sadish Bala. Visit his WordPress blog at WordPress Rocks

on January 15th, 2005ShadedGrey - Another WP 1.5 Theme…

An Updated version of this theme, is now available at Shaded Grey Page.

This is also another most wanted theme, that I did for my personal blog at SimpleInside.Com .

Its called ‘ShadedGrey

Here is how it looks on the screen,
ShadedGrey ScreenShot

My customized version of this can be seen at playwith.wpthemes.info.

Ok…

Go Ahead and Dowload it from
http://wpthemes.info/themes/1.5/ShadedGrey.zip

As usual, it contains a readme.html as part of the zip, along with all that the GreenTrack has had already.

Update 1: on Jan 16 2005 6.00 pm
The Problem reported by Shadow
is corrected now.

It was because of a call to a plugin that i use it on my website. The solution is to remove the call to that plugin. I fixed it in the code and uploaded the new package.
please download the package again to get the fix.

Update 2 : 18 Jan 2005 04:00 pm
Added overflow:hidden to the content to fix the problem with IE not rendering properly when u have images in the content.

The Same Fix is applied to GreenTrack also.

Enjoy !

    I’m new in WP. That’s why I have some problems with this theme. I made first and second steps of instruction. Accordingly to step 3 i have to go to Presentation area, but i couldn’t find it in Admin’s menu. I use Wp 1.2.2.

    Dear n0xyl,

    These themes work only in WP 1.5 and above.

    If you need WP 1.2 Themes, click on WP 1.2 on the Categories on the sidebar of this site.

    and download from there, those will work for u.

    Thanks

    Shaded Grey Theme
    I just found a new Wordpress theme called ShadedGrey by Sadish Balasubramanian.

    It’s pretty cool looking … I think I’ll try it on for size a bit….

    Hi there, thanks for sharing your themes :)

    Shaded Grey is a very nice theme and I have it running as one of my themes at Organic Shadows but I have discovered a small problem. If nothing is found when doing a search the following error message is delivered…

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: optimal_title() in …./wp-content/themes/ShadedGrey/search.php on line 7

    Any ideas what may be happening or how to fix this?

    Thanks :)

    hi ..

    i have an error after installing this theme ,

    i get Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_header() in ….. <—

    help me pls

  8. Shadowon 17 Jan 2005 at 1:56 am 8

    Hi Sadish,

    Thank you for fixing the search problem. Would it be possible for you to tell me what you did to the code? I have hacked the site to pieces and do not want to have to do it all again.

    Also, I seem to keep getting this message at random as I load pages

    XML error: syntax error at line 1

    It will generally load again ok but it just goes to my a pagewith my body background colour and this message sitting right at the top.

    I am sorry - I am not ‘trying’ to find problems. I just would like to get it all working.

    Thanks :)

  9. ThemePorteron 17 Jan 2005 at 2:03 am 9

    Hi Shadow,

    that could be a problem with your hosting provider.
    may be we should take this discussion offline at my email reachme @ simpleinside.com.

    and kusaeni,
    it is most probably because they have changed something in the wordpress version that you use.
    if get_header is not working, then use <?php include("header.php"); ?> or <?php include("footer.php"); ?> instead of get_header() and get_footer() respectively

    Thanks.

    Dear friend thank you for you advice ;-)

  11. jnettyon 21 Jan 2005 at 3:26 pm 11

    with the Shaded grey theme
    I get a letter “e” after each post topic is that normal?

    thank you great theme.

  12. jnettyon 21 Jan 2005 at 4:19 pm 12

    Edit, please ignore my message above, i get the “e” when i view my page while log in, when i log out its gone.

  13. ThemePorteron 21 Jan 2005 at 8:00 pm 13

    Did you Click on that and see what happens ?

    are you taken to a place where you can ‘EDIT’ the post ?

    then thats what is intended with that !!! :)

    if you are a logged on user, and is the author of the post, then you get the capability to edit the post / comment when viewing the site.

    Only you will see that ‘e’ and all other visitors to the site will not see it.

    Enjoy.

    Made a “caffeine-induced” theme from Shaded Grey which I thought you might like Sadish :)

    Take a look at http://shadows.os42.com/index.php?wptheme=Caffeine

    Cheers |_P

  15. S.Kon 30 Jan 2005 at 9:49 am 15

    The info under this heading on the side bar has got to be hard-coded on the index template:-

    About Me:

    * Write about yourself here

    Instead could you please tell me if the profile of the admin can be called from the database through a php command as in the case of the description of the site which is called by this string:-

    < ?php bloginfo('description'); ?>

    Pl tell me how to do it.
    Thanks

    Regards,

    S.K

  16. ThemePorteron 31 Jan 2005 at 10:44 am 16

    we can only get to the admin email, and nothing else about the admin profile.

    Also in some cases, the admin may not be the main author of the website. we should also make a note of that.

    here is what you can do with bloginfo.

    Thanks.

    I installed this theme and really like it. I’m having one slight problem, though.

    I added this code to the menu for links to show up but the font size and color os so small it is hard to read.

    < ?php _e('Links:'); ?>

      < ?php get_links_list('order',hide_if_empty); ?>

    What have I done wrong?

    New design - WordPress themes
    I was looking into WordPress themes today and I found a few interesting sites with freely downloadable themes for WordPress 1.5.

    I found one called ShadedGrey that I liked so I downloaded it and made it active. I had a couple of issues with its set…

  19. Tonyon 10 Feb 2005 at 7:23 pm 19

    Love your theme, but I have a question. Why is the actual header info in the main index and not in the header template?

    Neuron
    Well, I’ve come up with a name for this lovely creation: Neuron. It takes some design and engineering queues from Shaded Grey and the Kubrick Default for Wordpress 1.5. I’m still working on making the templates for the sidebar, but I’ll post it he…

  21. Blipson 15 Feb 2005 at 12:20 am 21

    Hi Sadish
    The ShadedGrey theme for WP 1.5 looks very very good so
    I downloaded this theme a few days ago and implemented it on my blog. The only thin I do not see are the shaded boxes on top of every post and in the sidebar. I looked in the CSS and i can see the post-title there but see no other call in the theme. I have installed WP in a custom directory. Please advise how I can get this visible. I’m a newbie to CSS and PHP but could achief some changes with tryal and error.

  22. Blipson 15 Feb 2005 at 12:27 am 22

    oops uploaded the images again and now it works like a charm.

    Thanks for this great theme.

  23. Trishon 19 Feb 2005 at 6:12 pm 23

    Hi Sadish,
    I really liked Shaded Gray so I downloaded and started making changes. This is my first foray into CSS and I can’t seem to find the code to change the white background.

    It’s driving me a little mad. :)

    Could you take a look? I changed the other parts to shades of grey just to differentiate the white area I want to change.

    http://www.greenfreak.net/greenblog

    Thanks man. :)

  24. Trishon 20 Feb 2005 at 12:42 am 24

    Thanks anyway but I got pointed in the right direction at the WP forums. It was the #rip tag I had to alter. I didn’t realize you put an image in the background to make it white.

    I’ve changed just about everything except the layout, but that comes next. Thanks for my starter theme. :)

    just curious, How hard would it be to turn this into a 3-column layout? My site has the standard links and catagories on the right column, which normally is all I need. But I want the 3rd column for a list of seperate pages (calendars, actually) for users to click on. i really wanted to keep them at the top, along with the Links, Categories and weather plug-in.

    Any thoughts?

    I’m just writting this comment for telling you that I’m using your ShadedGrey WP 1.5 Theme on my site.

    Thank you for sharing your theme!!! It’s great!

  38. Brett Pattersonon 05 Jul 2005 at 12:53 am 38

    Hey guys. I’m having a little bit of trouble finishing a small modification to this theme. I went ahead and added a page.php, sidebar.php and a “Pages:” block to the sidebar. Didn’t take me long. Now, what would seem to be easy, I can’t get. Here’s what I’m trying to do:

    I want to have the initial page display only the excerpts from my posts, and not the full post. I have looked through the source and can’t find anything to help me out. Any ideas?

    Other than that, it’s a great theme, absolutely love it.

    For some reason, I can not add it as my site’s theme because when I go to the “Presentation” section of Admin, it tells me that there is no stylesheet. Thus, I cannot choose it as one of my themes.

  53. gjon 22 Feb 2006 at 2:23 am 53

    Hi Sadish,

    You make great themes!

    I tried some of yours but I have a little problem. I would like to inverse blog name with the wp_title in the title tag.

    I do that without problem with de default WP theme but it does not work with yours.

    Do you have an advice ?

    Thanks

  54. [...] As you can tell, we have a new theme going based on the “ShadedGrey” theme. It’s a tad bland at the moment, but it’s better then our horrible old one. I bought Photoshop Elements the other day, so I’m going to try and get some more LEGO-oriented graphics whipped up and on the site, to give it a brick-ish feel. The theme may change on occasion, but this is generally it for now. Also, what do you think about reopening the forums? Either email me at biochron@gmail.com or comment to let your voice be heard!
