In reply to: Arthemia Category ProblemsHallo FF0077 (O:
Might I suggest you upgrade to version 2, as the author/creator has updated to version 2.0 and has fixed many of the issues that were problematic.
Install the new updated theme, and then see what hasn’t been fixed. Be sure to make a back up of all of your current settings in CODA, in fact, I’d suggesting creating a duplicate site and putting a fresh install on your server in a separate folder.
See how you go (O: I hope that helps…

In reply to: Arthemia Category ProblemsHiya DustyALR and FF0077 (Neat colour by the by – I’m more of a C10003 fan myself…)
@dustyalr – I’m not sure what is going on there. I’m still poking my way around this new theme. That said, mine seems to wok fine, which doesn’t help you I know. I’ll have a bit more of a gander and get back to you if I think I can advance your cause.
@ff0077 – That index.php code of yours just seem plain wrong for an Arthemia one (O: There is no id, class or style for “container” in my version. No wonder you cannae fins it.
What version of the Arthemia theme have you chosen? That could be the issue. I’m using Arthemia v.2 – so maybe that could be the issue.
What text editor are you using (Notepad, Aptana, Coda?)?

In reply to: Arthemia Category ProblemsHiya (O:
If you go into Categories and place your mouse over the Category names you want to appear in ‘Browse Categories’, you will see their ID show up as the last four characters in the staus bar at the bottom of the browser, i.e., ID=13.
For example, my numbers are (11, 5, 26, 27, 13). The categories are assigned numbers automatically when you create them, so they are random numbers, and the Author of the template could probably make a few adjustments to his site to explain this.
Anyhoo, I hope that helps (O:

In reply to: arthemia featured postHiya (O:
What you are looking for is in the page marked index.php
You are looking for code that says this:
<?php
$page = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1;
query_posts(“cat=-28,-29&paged=$page&posts_per_page=12”); ?>Although your code will be slightly different to mine to due the three numbers in this section:
“cat=-28,-29&paged=$page&posts_per_page=12”cat=-28,-29 refers to the ‘ids’ that have the categories with the value “Headline” (-28) and “Featured” (-29) respectively. What it is saying is that the categories with ‘ids’ number -28 and -29 will be exclude from the main left-hand post lisitng.
These numbers will be different in your case as they are generated automatically and are done so in the order that you created them. The number ’12’ refers to the number of posts that will appear in that main left-hand column before the posts ‘wrap’ and head off to the next page.
Easist way to discover what the id numbers are is go to Categories> then hold your mouse over the name of the catergory Featured (etc) and look at the staus bar at the bottom of your browser. You will see the URL for the category.
The last four characters will be like this: ID=## or ID=3 – where ## will be the number. Mine for Featured is ID=29. Yours might be ID=9.
Once you have both sets of numbers for Headline and Featured, enter them into the source code, save, publish, and all should be right with the world (O:
