my-photo-blog templates and their secrets

At header.php (html header) you will find all what you need to have a search enginee friendly theme, if you using the custom field “headmeta” for all your posts (photo articles and text articles) and if you are using “category description” to describe a category. Administration Panel==>Manage==>Categories==>Description

header-menu.php da kann man das obere Menü individuell gestalten. Näheres weiter unten bei “Sidebar left navigation- ohne Widgets”

header-menu.php for customize your menu please read also Sidebar left navigation- without using widgets

There are three places for adsense or whatever else you would like to use to earn money: After head menu (adsense-head-menu.php), above sidebar (adsense-above-sidebar.php) and only for text articles left to the content (adsense-content-article.php).

My -photo-blog sidebar (sidebar.php) has three columns. All are widget ready.

Sidebar left navigation- without using Widgets

• At single view you will see the article meta. Like: time, posted in category, the post tags and RSS feed button, the trackback URI with button.
• And under the headline “News” the titles of 5 articles without the last three.
• At homepage you will see RSS Feed button.
• Categories and pages are all over the world
• header-menu.php and pages-sidebar.php there you can customize Codex

Sidebar middle column-wihtout using Widgets

• At homepage(custom-field-article-sidebar.php): the last text articles with title and excerpt.
• At archive (tag, category, author, search view too) your tag cloud.
• At single view the comments and trackbacks separately

Sidebar right sidebar -wihtout using Widgets

• about-sidebar.php for one or two sentences about you.
• The search field.
• Blogroll
• Single and home view your tag cloud.

Archives

archive.php, tag.php, category.php

This archives show all photos first and then all text articles. That’s why a photo blog has never enough text and so you need all photos or articles on one page to avoid “double content”. But if you would like to change this open this files with a texteditor (never ever with word or dreamweaver or something else) and at top of each file you’ll find this:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php
$categoryvariable=$archive; // assign the variable as current category
$query= 'archive=' . $categoryvariable. '&showposts=-1'; // concatenate the query
query_posts($query); // run the query
?>

showposts=50 will show 50 articles, showposts=80 will show 80 articles and so on.

This files have no *paginate* code, because this is wether user nor search enginee friendly.
