    Hello every one.

    I have worked for a while now with wordpress, but this theme kills me “branford magazine” and I want to master it. The problem is that the categories in the frontpage do not show up. I have done many websites before, but this one scapes me. I figure that once I post a post, this one should in theory show up automatically in the front. Should it not happen like this? If some one has a step by step setting up for this Theme please let me know.

    Thanks,

    I just went to download the Branford Magazine theme only to have my browser freeze, my AVG antivirus to kick in, and my browser to then close.

    Interestingly enough, the Branford Magazine site (the one I went to anyways) had a ‘Gambling’ link on one of its tabs.

    … If you have another better link from where I can download the theme, please post it, otherwise I’m not touching that theme with a 10 foot virtual pole.

    You have to go into the main index template (click on Appearance/Editor and then index.php on the right) and, where it says “array,” fill in the ID numbers of the categories you want to display.

    By default, it displays categories 3, 4, 5, and 6 (as you can see from the code below). So change those numbers. 

    // enter the IDs of which categories you want to display
$display_categories = array(3,4,5,6);
foreach ($display_categories as $category) { ?>
    <div class="clearfloat">
      <?php query_posts("showposts=1&cat=$category");
	    $wp_query->is_category = false;
		$wp_query->is_archive = false;
		$wp_query->is_home = true;
		 ?>

    You can find a category’s ID number if you click on categories and then click on the one in question and look at the URL, which should end in a number — that’s the ID.
