Don’t know what Flexibility is? Watch the video!

Here’s a video that demonstrates a few of the theme functions and shows how quickly the theme can be customized. It’s my first video ever created, so cut me some slack on the jumpiness. I’m trying to get more efficient at Camtasia Studio.
I actually recorded the video at 640×480 and have another version hosted at Screencast.com, but I wanted to play with YouTube a little bit. I’m amazed how much YouTube reduces the quality of the video, but not surprised. If anyone knows of a video plugin that can display video in a lightbox, let me know. I’m still looking.
I found many methods that work, some better than others,from a g00gle search for WP video lightbox.
The simplest cleanest method seems to be an opensource one. Hope this helps

This does look ideal for all my sites, but only if the backgrounds can use any color too.
I only saw a gray or black background. Does this let you change the BG to any color?
The video is not jumpy, but YouTube have made text blurry. Is it possible to have the Screencast url please?
Thanks

Here’s the Screencast.com link: http://www.screencast.com/t/wWqZMejFKkn
As far as the background goes, it can be any color you want simply by choosing a new color via the color picker in the options page.
Check out the pb-embedFlash plugin for WordPress. I’ve had great success with it. Though I haven’t used the lightbox feature, it is supposed to be lightbox capable.
Your theme is amazing and have to say thanks for adding your link only to the home page.
Thanks for your quick reply. I am very impressed with the Flexibility Theme.
You say:
“You can easily edit the top feature links in the feature.php file, and the footer links in the footer.php file or just activate widgets and replace all the content.”
The top affiliate links take up a lot of space, so does the above quote mean I CAN replace it all without buying a licence? Even with my own affiliate links, it takes up too much space (nearly the whole screen on the text size I use).
The reason I ask is, I’ve seen other ppl using it with no affiliate links, yet still have your home page link at the bottom (indicating they have the free version).
Secondly, I don’t know what I did wrong, but I have no CSS nor template. Thank you.
You can completely remove the top feature links if you want. Those are there for example primarily. It’s the footer links that you need a license to remove.
There is no real style.css file, as the CSS is served through the style.php file dynamically with each page.
What I meant was there is no theme. My text is on a white background, with no columns – nothing!
Hey,
Good video!! Now maybe put some ’sound on it’.

It was kind of a practice run with Camtasia Studio. I’ll redo it and add some more (with sound) when I get time, hopefully soon!
Deleted the whole folder and installed again – it worked this time!
Thank you! This design is not only amazing, but you understand that not everyone has the time to learn HTML. After I installed the download, I had a polished looking blog that I was extremely happy with in about an hour. And it is easy to customize if I decide to add or change anything later. I wish more templates came with this type of simple to use design!
hi,
Thanks for your flexible theme, i love it!
btw, can i know how to edit the header? edit the product promoted in the header
thank you
You can edit the content in the feature.php file included in the theme. Just use the included HTML as a guideline and it should be easy to change.
Hey,
Great Theme. I am still exploring all the features. Incredible. I haven’t been able to get the adsense option to work though. I have put in my pub-number and I see where the theme is making space for the ad. However, the ads aren’t displaying. What am I missing?
Thx.
There are a couple things that you need to be aware of with Adsense. First, you need to make sure your site complies with the Adsense guidelines. If Google sees something on your page that falls outside their guidelines or even is questionable, the ads won’t display. Also, it could take a little time for ads to start appearing on your site. As long as you entered your pub-ID correctly, the script is installed and working.
