Requirements

Agneka Simple has been tested with WordPress 2.3 but should work with all versions which support widgets. Looks lovely also in IE6 and all standards aware browsers.

Installation

Unzip the file you downloaded.
Upload it to your themes folder wp-content/themes/
Enable Agneka Simple theme under Presentation > Themes in your Wordpress administration panel.
Put the widgets into appropriate sidebar fragments, go to Presentation > Widgets. Each panel has different visibility and suggested use (view an example of widget placement):
- sidebar-page: visible only in pages. Displayed under the secondary navigation.
- sidebar-default: visible almost everywhere, useful for a text widget with information about yourself. Displayed on the top of the sidebar in home page, archive index; under post navigation in single entry page.
- sidebar-postnav: for a list of categories (Categories widget) and the monthly archive (Archives widget). Displayed under sidebar-default and to the left from sidebar-links. Visible on the home page, single entry page, category and monthly archive pages. Suggested for placing also RSS feed links.
- sidebar-postrelated: for post related widgets, such as Recent Posts or Recent Comments. Displayed on home page, single entry pages and archive index.
- sidebar-links: for any content, for example, blogroll (Observer widget) or flickr photo feed. Displayed next to sidebar-postnav and under sidebar-default. Visible on the same pages as sidebar-postnav.
- sidebar-bottom: for any content. Displayed at the bottom of sidebar. Visible on all pages.
Save your widget placement.
Thats all, now take a look at your new design.

Optional Configuration

How to change the main theme color?

Go to Presentation > Theme Editor. Select Stylesheet from the column on the right. Now you are able to edit the main theme file style.css. Just under the theme information segment you will find /* Theme color */ color:#C71585;. To change the color, you should change #C71585 part which is a hexdecimal representation of the theme color. Good places where to look for colour hex values are html-color-codes.com, colorschemer.com/online.html, colourlovers.com and Google

Simple and solid design emphasizes your content and encourages readers to explore and comment your work.

Built from scratch (both HTML and CSS) using Konstruktors CSS snippets, hands and Ubuntu.

Screenshots and Features

Active items in the main navigation

The active menu item is clearly marked. Even if you change the main colour, it will still look good, because dark grey fits to all colours.

Secondary Navigation

Each page can have unlimited number of children or sub-pages. Only children pages of the selected main navigation item are displayed.

Sidebar for individual entries

Stripped down sidebar for individual articles displays information that is only related to the blog posts. At the top is the blog entry navigation with clearly marked time directions. This encourages people to subscribe to your feed and view other entries.

Category and archive sections

Title of the selected category or month is clearly marked using the main theme colour, when browsing the archives.

Very simple archive index

Notice how the sidebar on the archive's index page displays only the relevant information.
