i love this theme and ive spent some time tweaking it to be useful for what im trying to do with my site.

However I have one major issue and i really wish i could fix it. Can i put the menu on the side bar, or near the header?

The links being at the bottom are often missed completely, and i want to direct users to different sections of my site, as its not a blog, but a gallery of various work in different categories : video, photo, bio, etc.

any help would be appreciated! lanquiddity (AT) gmail.com

hi would love to know how to stop ub_swiss posts lining up in each column on the home page?
The theme is great but if your posts are uneven because of images, then you end up with whopping great spaces between posts in both columns.
Would love to resolve this one if you can?
Thanks

Ashley,

I was bowled over by this swiss design, after looking at your themes, my resolve to host my wordpress blog on a dedicated webhost multiplied…and finally I did.

There is a hidden charm to the way you design and code themes, Bravo!! Great work!!

I will try to tweak it a little and also wanted thumbnails to display in my post…let’s see..

Anyone know how to display images on main page? Such as you would see in a css gallery?

Thanks

@Roger:

Open your css file and find this code:

#nav-below {

Start a new line below and add this:

display: block;

That made the Older Posts and Newer Posts links appear for me.

Hey,
I want to use this for a Photoblog, but would rather have a single column layout on the home screen, is there a quick way to do this, if not, what’s the best way??

Thanks,
Jeremy

Thanks for this wonderful clean theme. For me and other german users i translated your theme in german language and changed some details like the hover links and something more. Maybe it’s interesting for some of your vistors. They can download it here: http://www.kickasslog.com

Got a quick question: does the Swiss theme support images on the main page? I’ve been playing with the theme and images don’t show on the posts on the main page, but when you go to the individual post page then you see an image.

Is the Swiss theme made this way? Is there a way for me to make the images show up on the main page? Thank you for any guidance.

Hi Ashley, great theme ! I’m trying to use this theme in my blog, I’m showing 30 posts on front page but at the end I can’t see any link to visit the older posts…it’s the theme or I need to activate or change something ? I would like to know if I can show an image in the excerpt of the posts…

Thank you very much !

Love it! Have used it as a ‘gallery’ type portfolio with only minor modifications. Thanks for putting it out and being quick to answer my questions!

Magazine WordPress Theme Upstart Blogger Swiss…

Swiss is a minimalist magazine style WordPress theme. The front page layout follows a clear and concise two column layout with post excerpts running from left to right, top to bottom. Individual post and content pages are single column for maximum read…

Very nice Ashley. Neat and clean, and oh so Swiss. Somewhat reminiscent of Takimata in it's simplicity and approach.

You have a small typo ” Click heret to download the file.”. Otherwise, thanks for the great theme.

I think the footer needs some work. It just feels all lumped together.

But I don’t like überminimalized layouts anyway (it’s not bad at all, just not my style). For me, a layout must at least have some color.

Very clean. Very clean and very Swiss. Great work!
