Wordpress Theme: Deliciously Blue
Post Info Thursday, May 10th, 2007 5:36 am by J David Print Print this page Share This


WordpressI have finally done it! For a long time now, I have been meaning to take my “Deliciously Blue” XHTML template and convert it into a Wordpress theme. Not only was it my favorite template, but it has had well over 20,000 downloads, so some other people must have liked it as well. So at long last, I have made a Deliciously Blue Wordpress theme. I chose to use the theme framework from the Glossy Blue theme which was made by N. Design Studio. It is incredibly extensible and has ton’s of great built in usability.

Features:

  • Built in Recent Comments
  • Built in style for Top Commentators (just download and activate; no coding necessary)
  • Supports Wordpress widgets
  • A print stylesheet

Instructions:

  • Unzip the file locally (like into your Documents).
  • Upload the “deliciously_blue” directory (the whole folder) into the themes directory of your site [/wp-content/themes/]
  • Activate and smile :)

Download the Deliciously Blue Theme now! Believe me when I tell you that you won’t regret it!

  2. Walter

    looks good!

  3. J David

    Thanks guys!

  4. TOMAS

    The theme looks great! BTW, you might want to update your ‘Templates’ page with this theme and your Simpla Remix theme if you haven’t done so already!

  5. J David

    Thanks Tomas. I actually am working on updating it, and separating my old XHTML themes from the new wordpress ones.

  6. BONTB

    Oh i love the template, if I would of seen it before i would use it on my new blog but instead i am using the same one you got :) well similar http://www.mrbrooks.info i just start it yestarday.
    So who knows i might give a try ?

  7. J David

    Well, all of those themes are built on the same basic template. Deliciously Blue just look the most different.

  8. Jaypee

    That’s one fine looking Wordpress theme you got there! Great job man! I’ll definitely feature this theme ASAP! :D
    Btw, just a suggestion. Maybe you could provide a preview page for your themes so we can check it out before downloading. :)

  20. weirdoux

    what a damn good template my friend!!!!
    I love it!!!!!!

    congrats!!!!!!

  21. Garth

    I like the theme and have installed it. The post column is pretty narrow. Is it possible to make it wider?

    Thanks for the great theme! Check out how it looks on my page.

  22. Jaypee | Blogging News & Reviews

    @Garth - Just like with most themes, I’m sure you can by editing the code in the style sheet.

  23. J David

    Thanks Jaypee. So Garth, you would have to look at the stylesheet, like he said, and make it wider. Keep in mind that you would also have to make the whole content wrapper wider too. Otherwise, the numbers wouldn’t add up.

  24. Chad

    Hi,

    I just wanted to say thanks for the theme, I like it quite a bit. You can see it in action here - http://chadmoore.net.

    Cheers,
    Chad

  25. J David

    Looks great Chad!

  30. J David

    Thanks! Glad you like it!

  31. Garth

    Thanks for the advice. This will be a good chance for me to work on my nascent coding skills. I will let you know if/when I am successfu. Thanks again for the great looking theme. It has made an attractive, simplistic look that my site was needing.

  32. Miguel

    Good theme!!

  33. SriSri

    Clean and wonderful theme.

    Can you suggest the CSS tweak to make it fullpage theme with relative positioning of content and sidebar instead of fixed widths.

  38. Theme: Deliciously Maple | Another Opinion Among Many

    […] I was originally going to try coding this one from scratch, which is why I didn’t have anything up months ago.  If you want to know the inspiration for this theme, you should visit the site of J David Macor, who is the theme author that ported Deliciously Blue from Glossy Blue.  I replaced the icons with the excellent free Drunky Love ones by Kevin Wetzels.  I’ve left footer links so that you can go and visit their sites for yourself.  This theme is sponsored by no one.

  40. Mehdi

    hey david i was wondering if it was possible for you to update the theme to allow a custom header option that would sit behind the text at the top and the about me home icons… or if anyonw knows how to code how to do that, i loveeee this setup but i would really like to put a header image.

  41. Andy

    j, I love this template! Seriously the best one for Wordpress around! My only problem (knowing just super basics to attempt style sheet hack) I can’t get your cool icons to show up. I figured that i needed to add the host server file location for the wordpress template icon imagesm and cut and past into the style sheet code where there were “url” entries. Just a dumb guess, but didnt work. Can you help me fix blog.ideacity.com? Thanks!
