Themes

The new BlogTactics Free WordPress Themes are here, AT LAST! :)

Thanks for your patience!

I’ll be posting the first few videos over the next few days, however I need to make some new ones to cover things like the banner options, as well as newversion of the widget videos as they are managed differently in the latest version of WordPress, so please bear with me on these.

In the mean time here are the 4 current themes for you to have a play with: -

1. BlogTactics BlueSimple Theme : Download Zip : [or Rar] : example site => MattGarrett.com

2. BlogTactics BOS Theme : Download Zip : [or Rar] : example site => OKAF.com

3. BlogTactics BYS Theme : Download Zip : [or Rar] : example site => Adz.Org

4. BlogTactics Vintage Theme : Download Zip : [or Rar] : example site => IMTesting.com

I will post links to the videos here once they’re posted to the blog.

If you have any questions, feedback or problems please leave a comment below and I will reply as soon as I have time. Thanks.

Good work! seeing some interesting recent posts; as a WP addict I will be checking them, many thanks-
just as a rant: has anyone been talked into another platform (or whatever it’s called) like Joomla, were never happy with it, and ended back with Wordpress? Stay with what works, right?

Hi Kim,
I tried Joomla for a while, I ended up with a network of around 250+ joomla sites, but they never did as well for me as my WP blogs.
there’s also far more good quality plugins and tools available for wordpress than anything else I’ve come across, which just makeslife easier..
cheers,
Matt

Downloaded all of them and happily playing around with one right now. These are brilliant. Way more versatile than other themes and I’ve tried literally hundreds over the past 2 years. :neutral: None would do exactly what I wanted till now. :grin: Very happy camper. All of your advice is helpful but this particular act of generosity has ensured a very loyal fan. :cool: Thanks so much.

Thanks for all the kind comments!
I’m going tohave to point out that it’s not 100% “altruistic” to give away the themes for free though, as each one has a couple of links back to this site and one of my other main sites, so there is a benefit for me… :wink:
this is pretty standard with WP Themes and is why you can get such good ones for free.
So I’d like to thank you all for using them! :)
cheers,
Matt Garrett

Hi Matt
Thanks for the themes. I like the video’s , and all of the training.
This is my first blog (I’m a newbie) - I am using Blue Simple 1.0 , and I am using wordpress version 2.6.2 - in the video you are using a different version of wordpress. My question is - I am not able to remove - Pages - Categories - Archives from Sidebar 1 and not able to remove - Recent Note - links - Meta from Sidebar 2 , I don’t even see the screen where I can drag and drop the widgets - the Sidebar Arrangement screen isn’t being displayed - help.

Re: BlogTactics BOS Theme
Hi Matt;
I really appreciate these new themes. While I know that it is difficult to provide support on an individual basis, I thought I would ask about a small issue that I am having.

On my blog with the BOS theme, my blog title in the header is black, making it very difficult to read when on the dark background. I have checke the css files and see that it should be white but that is not happening. I have even changed the FFFFFF to another setting without luck.

Any thoughts?

:shock:

Doh!! Sorry about that last post. I found the correct video to show me how to make the change. Very easy once you know how.

Thanks again
Phil
