Andreas01 Theme for Thingamablog

Screenshot of Andreas4TAMB-01

This theme is another port of one of Andreas Viklund’s open source templates called andreas01. Andreas4TAMB-01 is a simple 3 column theme that is made of valid XHTML 1.1 and CSS.

The theme only has 2 images - one for the background and another for the header image. The header image can be easily replaced with one of your own. As always full credit for the design goes to Andreas. I have kept this mostly faithful to the original with only minor additions and tweaks to the html and CSS where required to fit in with Thingamablog.

This theme is set to output the categories as keywords in the head. If you don’t want this then look for meta name=”keywords” tag on line 6 of the templates and either remove it or modify it as required.

If you like this theme, please visit Andreas’ site, where you will find a good selection of open sourced templates.

Installation instructions

  1. Unzip the andreas4tamb-01.zip file into a convenient location.
  2. Locate your Thingamablog database (it will have a numerical folder name i.e. “1118777427031″) and copy all the database files to a safe place as a backup so you can return to your original templates in case of problems.
  3. Open the “templates” folder and overwrite the template file with those in the Andreas4TAMB-01 archive.
  4. Next open the “web” folder and copy the “images” folder to it and overwrite the “styles-site.css” file with the one in the archive.
  5. Edit any parts of the templates that you want to, such as the right side bar for instance.
  6. Finally republish your entire blog. (Make sure that you choose to republish your entire blog.)

If everything went well you should now have the Andreas4TAMB-01 theme installed.
