Tips & Tricks
The top menu bar is not centralised. How?
Go to WP Admin > Presentation > Internet Sharing Tab
Enter the number of tabs that you have.

How to add Gravatar?
Look for the following line in the comments.php
<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
and add the following line below it
<div style="float:right"><?php if (function_exists(’gravatar’)) { gravatar_image_link(); } ?></div>
Final product should be
<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<div style="float:right"><?php if (function_exists(’gravatar’)) { gravatar_image_link(); } ?></div>
The top tabs is in alphabetical order. How can I change the order?
Edit the wp_list_pages() function in header.php. More info on the function here

BEAUTIFUL theme.
I came!
I saw!
I installed!
Thanks…
i love your theme! i tryed to install the theme in the next couple of weeks! its possible to change the sidebar funktion??? for example: the archivlist is in the right sidebar, not down under…?
This is a really fantastic theme, and I’d use and recommend it irrespective of whether the site in question needs a big search box or not.
However, I wish the home page would show the number of comments.
I’ve likes this template since Solucija release it. I was hoping someone would convert it. Now to see how it works. Thanks for the effort.
Jared: Should be pretty easy. Just replace or copy the function to the sidebar.
Gurdit: Right now, it shows the no. of comments when you mouseover it. I didn’t put in the numbers cause it breaks the image. May work on it when i have more time.
sorry but in which file can i find this function???
where is the function “recent post”?
What a treat! Thanks for this gift. Installed and tweaked it right away. – Haven’t found the edit button on individual posts yet, though. – Very promising!
Matthias Heil: I din add in the Edit button. You can add < ?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ? > to the index.php if you want
Jared: The recent post funtion is the chunk of code under the Recent Posts: heading in index.php. You may want to use wp_get_archives (see http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_get_archives)
The archive list is in the sidebar.php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’);
its my first time with html and php and i must thank you! i found the function with your help… thank you very much!
your theme is very amazing… what do you thinking about my homepage???
sorry for my bad english!
nicely done, especially the neat footer menus
Is this theme widget compatible?
Currently no. Version 1.1 perhaps
Hi,
just to let you know that I changed the feed icon that you use by default on single posts to one with rounded corners. Feel free to come take it (saving it from my page). It is a free image…
I’ve also modified your “Digg This” code so that it submits the url and post title. (Can you tell what I’m busy with today?
)
Anyway, hopefully this html works here, otherwise feel free to mail me and I’ll send you the code (unless you did it like you have it on purpose):
<a href="http://www.digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=<?php the_permalink(); ?>&title=<?php echo(the_title()); ?>" target="_new">Digg This</a>
Thanks James, shall implement them in version 1.1
Thanks for an excellent theme. Its exactly what i was looking for. But i have an issue with installation.
After installation, when i try to access the theme files from theme editor, i get the following error message.
==quote==
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\internetsharing\functions.php:20) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 69
==unquote==
wordpress codex gives a solution here
FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_do_I_solve_the_Headers_already_sent_warning_problem
but that doesnt work. Seems there is some problem with functions.php file . Could you please rectify and upload it again?
Hi prakash, thanks for pointing out the error. I have fixed the bug. Only the functions.php file is modified so you need to re-upload only that file
Genkisan , thank you very much. The issue is resolved now
Hello,
I use you port of the template at http://audioblog.fr
And I’m pretty happy with it.
Congratulations
Glad you like it, Luc
hm i have a big problem! i change my theme “internet sharing” to german und work in the themefiles! i can’t download the version 1.1 and install this! it crash my hole theme and than its all in english
can you explain me what can i do? i want do change my theme for wp 2.1…
Jared, you got my mail?
Hi. Me again
Another request is for “previous page” “next page” links at the bottom of each single article page. I’ve done it on my version, using the post title as the link text, (good for SEO?).
Here’s the code if you like:
<div class="prev_next_nav">
<span class="prev_post_link"><?php previous_post_link(‘« « <strong>%link</strong>’); ?></span>
<span class="next_post_link"><?php next_post_link(‘<strong>%link</strong> » »’); ?></span>
</div>
I forgot to say, I think you can use your design skill to make it look good. I’ve just got it there to HAVE it there, but it doesn’t look that good right now.
Thanks again
Seen any fancy ones around? Most of the ones I seen are the standard text link type.
hi eric! yeah i got your mail and i think its better for me to wait with the upgrade to WP 2.1!
THANKS for your lovely support und your help
Hi, can u add Gravatar function in this theme?
Nice themes
I try not to use plugins for the themes so that it work out of box.
However you can easily add gravatar by looking for the following line in the comments.php
<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
and add the following line below it
<div style="float:right"><?php if (function_exists(‘gravatar’)) { gravatar_image_link(); } ?></div>
Final product should be
<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<div style="float:right"><?php if (function_exists(‘gravatar’)) { gravatar_image_link(); } ?></div>
I like it! Its jut what I was looking for to make it easier to hunt down audio tours in my blog.
But…I have one problem. Whenever I add any widget to the right menu, I lose the nice box that encloses the sidebar. Can you help me figure out what is happening?
The site is http://www.oggtours.com/blogtours
Thanks!
hey there great blog! the search button looks awesome, but is it possible to add in a live-search plugin? do you know how dude?
Jay: Thanks for pointing out the issue. You can download the new theme file. Or just changed the functions.php (only line 6 has been modified)
centerpide: you can try out the Wp plugins at http://wp-plugins.net/?filter=live+search
hi genkisan
whats about dropdown archives and dropdown categories in the footer? i think its better and looks smarter
ähm its ok if i share my translated theme with other people? i support especially plugins and hacks (like simple tagging, gravatar etc.)
big greetz from germany
Jared
Well I guess the Creative Commons license allows you to do so
Just be prepared to provide support for the theme
Work not WP2.1.
http://forum.wordpress-deutschland.org/installation/19326-problem-mit-internet-sharing-theme.html
Works in WP 2.1. this Version
http://www.gfxedit.com/themes/wordpress/ported-themes/internet-sharing-2-column-wordpress-theme.html
Why?
Sorry, an old bug crawled its way back into the zip file. And for some reason, my server appears to be caching the old zip file even though I uploaded the new version. For now, you can download the updated file from http://themes.wordpress.net/columns/2-columns/2084/internet-sharing-111/. Only the functions.php is modified.
Eric,
Thanks! It is working fine in Firefox, but now I am getting an error in IE7 and the sidebar appears directly below the posts. I am not sure if this problem is related to the new functions.php or if it is something else in my blog.
I overwrote the old functions.php so I cannot test it out. Any insight?
http://www.oggtours.com/blogtours
I don’t have IE7 installed so unable to test it out. Perhaps I will install over the weekend.
Meantime you can download the old functions.php at http://www.divshare.com/download/307003-08f . See if the problem still persist. Thx.
Alright, I figured it out, and it was a problem on my end. Sorry for the false alarm, its working fine now. Thanks for your quick response and support.
that’s great
Wow, what a great theme. But then, I wish to see a three column version of this theme (content-bar-bar) + the bottom bar in just 1 widget(?) like BloggingPro 3 column widget ready theme.[http://www.bloggingpro.com/archives/2007/03/23/widget-ready-blogging-pro-theme/]
I was making some of the themes into 3 columns but unfortunately, Internet Sharing not one of them. I can’t get it to look nice. Perhaps you want to try mashing Internet Center’s sidebar (without the borders)
Brilliant theme. I’ve decided to use your theme on my blog, but I have a few questions.
1. How do you make it so that the sidebar is always there on the right hand side, even when you’re on other pages on your blog like the About page.
2. How do you get it to display the normal sidebar on the right when you’re viewing a post rather than the “Post Meta”.
3. How do you add pictures to the sidebar?
Thanks for your time.
Q1.
In index.php, grab the chunk of code between the <div id="right"> </div> tags. Open page.php and insert it before the <?php get_footer(); ?>. Also, look for <div class=”left_page”> and replace it with <div class=”left_page”>.
Q2.
As in Q1, grab the same code from index.php. Open single.php and replace the existing code. The 2 files are pretty similiar, so compare and you should be able to find where to paste it in.
Q3.
Something like this should do.
<div class="boxtop"></div>
<div class="box">
<img src="mypic.gif" />
</div>
Thanks for the info. Regarding my third question, on which page do I add the code to add pictures to the sidebar?
Oh.. if you are not using widgets, you have to edit 3 files: index.php, single.php, page.php
Happy editing
Is there any particular location I need to add the code in the 3 files?
The sidebar code are contained in the <div id=”right”> </div>, once you figured out Q1 and Q2 you should be able to modify the sidebar as you like
Thanks for your help mate.
Got another another question, how would I add the picture to my sidebar if I was using widgets. Thanks.
Sorry to bother you again, but when I add the picture to the sidebar how would I also give it the same border as the other widgets on my sidebar? Thanks.
Use the Text widget and insert your <img /> tag into it. The border will show up too.
If you’re not using the Text widget, then your code should look like this for the border to show up:
<div class=”boxtop”></div>
<div class=”box”>
<img src=”mypic.gif” />
</div>
Thanks so much. Keep up the good work with the themes.
Is there a way to remove the bottom sidebar? I don’t like it at the bottom. Thanks.
Remove <?php get_sidebar() ?> from footer.php
Hi again, I would like to place an image in the sidebar without the border that the other widgets have. Is that possible? When I place it in using the text widget there is a blank space at the top where the heading is supposed to be. Thanks.
Unfortunately no. That’s one of the disadvantage of widgets, their appearance are more or less standardized, changing one will affect all widgets.
Is it possible to place it in the sidebar without the gap at the top left for the heading? Thanks.
Insert the image tag just below the <div id=”right”> tag.
Thanks for all your help so far. Unfortunately the search bar in your template doesn’t seem to work for me. I keep getting an error that the requested url could not be found. Do you have any ideas? Thanks.
Sorry to bother you with my previous question, but the search bar works fine now.
However I have another query, how do you get your template to display properly in Internet Explorer? In IE the tabs at the top don’t show properly. Thanks.
It was tested ok on IE6/7. Also, it’s difficult to troubleshoot w/o seeing your blog.
Hi again, thanks for all the help so far. How do I add a Home tab to the tabs at the top? Thanks.
I’ve figured it out. If anyone else is interested I added >/”>Home under in header.php. Thanks anyway.
I’m still having trouble viewing the site in IE. The borders on the widgets in the sidebar are being chopped up in certain parts and the credits at the bottom are appearing below in the sidebar on the right. In firefox everything displays fine.
Erm.. tigerstew, i think you need to pay a pro to help you fix things up.
Btw I’m available for hire
I am needing to organize the tabbed menu bar, i think that its default it set to alphabetical. could someone help me.

February 2007 – Employee Retention
Cool!.. Nice work….
I must say = I do like this theme a lot! Simple, but not boring! Graphics and flow are nice together!
Thanks for this great theme, I’m trying to adapt it for my website http://mundo-anime.animerlz.net/ I just translated to spanish, it works really well under WP 2.7, I’m wondering if i can add a header logo or maybe a flash image rotator (aprox 960×150) just some pixels above the “tabs” i don’t mind if i have to delete the title and description of the site.
Sure. Just put your code inside <div id=”header”></div> (header.php)
Thanks Genkisan, I tweaked it a little and now the header is taking shape at last. Lots of people are very happy with the new layout of the site (was using redoable 2.0 theme) Again thank you for releasing this great, clean and simple to tweak theme.
nice thing,thx for sharing
Nice & Clean Theme
Thanks for share
