Professional Magazine style Blogger Template 'FunkyZine'
Posted by kranthi on Saturday, July 12, 2008Download Excellent,Professional Magazine style Blogger Template 'FunkyZine':
FunkyZine is a magazine style with stylish background,3 column, widget ready Blogger Template.
This was originally a Wordpress theme designed by ChiQ of wpthemedesigner.com
and I converted it into Blogger xml format for you guys!
Template installation help:
If you are a newbie, first install the template using the instructions here.
After installing the template successfully, you have to do a few things..
1. A *psd file of the header logo is packed with the template download file, open it with Photoshop and edit the logo text to your Blog name.
Once you completed editing it, save the file as *jpeg format and upload the image to any image hosting service like photobucket and copy the direct link to that image.
Next, go to Template »» Edit html and find this url
and change this above url in the template code with the one you just copied.
2.Edit the top navigation links.
Find this code and change the anchor text (Home,About,Pictures,etc) and write the respective links by replacing the YOUR-LINK-HERE3.And the final thing to do is to edit the feedburner url's.

Find this code and enter the respective links.
and Save the Changes.
Hope you guys like the template!

hi Technodrop,
It was hidden as it spoils the look of the template.. if u want it.. simply remove this code from the template:
#blog-pager-older-link {
display: none;
}
and save the changes.
Is it possible to change the background to totally black?
Thanx!!problem solved

I would be very grateful, I tried to put a code to create the widget related posts, but it did not work!

Hi. Well, yeah, I know that.
I meant for this specific template. I noticed that most of the ones you have up only show the time. I've tried changing it like you mentioned already, and it doesn't change.

Never mind. I'm stupid.
Got it. When you're in south, south Texas, drinks are on me.
Man, I have been template hunting all night, and I think this is the one.
I love the user friendliness, and options for customization, too!
This is incredible!
Loving the template so far! One issue, though. I'm not getting the the ShareThis widget to appear for some reason. :(
Hi, what and how should I put ads codes below RSS subsribe link?

Hey kranthi, you should increase the height of you footer to fit well with Recent Comment widget. It is a bit ugly right now.

Hi Kranthi,
Great template. I have been working on getting everything right and ready to upload it to my blog, but noticed when I use widgets to display text or banner ads above and below the post area, the text only goes to the center and not all the way accros the post area, and I cannot get the banners to center using the html center command so they are all left justified. Any help would be wonderful.

Hi I have a question, how can I change the hyperlink color from blue to white. I was able to change the "home, about, contact, pictures...) but i need to change the color on the blog archive links,
Thank you
Hi I love this theme so much! I'm using it now for my blog. I'm new at this and so far it looks great on Firefox, but on IE, Safari and Netscape - there are some formatting problems. Do you know what i should do to fix these? One of them is the white content box is "behind" the logo reflection image (Safari). On IE, the content white box doesn't even show up. What should I do? Help! My blog address is dareyoutospeak.blogspot.com. Thanks so very much in advance!!!!!

Hi TrintyJolie, The past image dimensions and the current image dimensions aren't the same. You changed the logo url correctly,in the same line, you'll see width:760px; height:36px; . Change it to your image dimensitions..ie width:547px; height:39px;
thanks.
I changed it! Thanks! It looks better on Firefox, but IE (content box doesn't extend based on the length of text and the logo doesn't repeat underneath) :( Wow, you're really good at this stuff! Do you think it's just my IE and Safari setup that's messed up?
Hi Trinty, In that same line, you see no-repeat; tag, which is stopping it to repeat in IE. If you want to repeat it, remove that tag.
Wonderful Template. I love it. Thanks so much.
Hi Kranthi,
Great template!!! I have been using it for about a month but the html widget above and below the post text cannot be centered on the white text area. Any ideas I can try? I don't seem to know enough html to figure this one out myself. Thanks

Hey there,
thanks for the great template and im just discovering XML coding, although i did manage to get some things done.
However it doesn't hurt to ask for help =p :
~ what needs to be done to imitate the main posting body just like the sidebar? im doing it for my videos and picture sections. ~
~ what code repeats the logo? it still repeats despite the "no-repeat" code. Im using firefox ~
~ how do you achieve navigation on the same webpage without having to create another same page for a specific section (i.e pictures, videos)
- just like jothiek here http://hmartech.blogspot.com -

I am using this great theme my blog. Just checking the code for the bug causing header image to repeat. I found an extra h1 code in the code. Remove it and its fine.
Try searching for " div id='header' ". Look at the code below this tag you will find double h1 tag surrounding the href='#'. remove the extra "h1" tag and you are done.
thanx for the lovely theme.

}
and save the changes.

Thank's..
I have this template installed and i cant add a lot of tools like Blog this or.... I like this template very much but i noticed that it does not have div id='post-footer..... but class...post footer.... i dont understand much but it is complicating the installation of some tools!
Would appreciate your help!
Thanksss
Great Theme.
I'm reconfiguring it a bit for use on my website. I hope you don't mind.
I'm leaving your site design credit at the bottom.
I have this template on my blog http://humortrip.blogspot.com ... but now everything is mess up because of the image hosts that you used doesn't want to show up the images and backgrounds from this templates. The only graphics that its shows are those that I modified before and hosted in my own photobucket account
Please help!
i have the same problem with frenchy.
it shows a pic saying "BANDWIDTH EXCEEDED". i tried copying the image files from the photobucket account of funkyzine-template to mine and replaced the files in the edit html page accordingly. but the white background fell short, it only shows half of the content background.
please help!
I have this template too and it´s happening the same problem with the images. If you still have them, please, help! I love this template and didn´t want to change now...
You need to add a step to the theme setup where the people using the theme change all the images to version their hosting themselves. The bandwidth is being exceeded and the only way to solve it is for everyone to use their own copies of the images on different servers.
@ piper, @ Dmitry,
Hi, sorry guys.. Due to the huge amount of template downloads the bandwidth exceeded..
For all those who are having problem... Please upload the pics to your own photobucket account and replace the image url's in template with the new ones you upload.
@ All guys who are experiencing problems with photobucket bandwidth problems.. read this
Thank you!
Very nice template. Good Job!
http://yourinternetcashmachine.blogspot.com/
How do we get the images to upload in our own host if this photobucket host of yours no longer show the images for this template? I don't know why I am being ignored here.. geez..

Good day! Can you explain me how to realize "Recent Posts" on main page using this template like in Live Demo? What i must do for this? Thank you!
to change the logo of this theme we must change "http://i42.tinypic.com/t9cz0n.jpg" in the html
with the .jpeg image made out of .psd by you.
Kranthi mistakenly entered
http://i529.photobucket.com/albums/dd338/funkyzine-template/logo.jpg
to be replaced...............
This is nice theme, thank's for share, i will try
great template thanks!
i'm using it for my blog: http://peachandfuzz.blogspot.com
have a problem with the title - it's being shown twice :oS anyone can help?
cheers
I like it a lot, but I tried to modify it a bit, to suit my blog better. And along came some questoins...
1) Is it possible to create another sidebar on the left side of the post-section? That would be really great, because it's kind of a mess with just the one on the right side.
I've followed several tutorials to try it out, but it was a complete mess.
2) Above my post-section I've placed a picture, a bit like a replacement-header. Above that picture, I want some buttons or some links like "home, about, contact, ...". How do I do that?
3) The date used to stand above my title, and now it's gone. Can I bring that back?
4) I know of some kind of "rate the post" system, where readers can give each post stars (up to five), to show if they like it or not.
But when I tried it, it just didn't show. Does this have to do anything with this template?
5) The corners of the post aren't round anymore, because the background is different. I can't photoshop them away (I've tried saving & uploading as a .jpg and a .gif file, but it didn't work). This question isn't as important as the other ones though.
I'm sorry to ask so much, but I've tried to figure it out myself, and I'd appreciate the help enormously. So if you've got the time and ideas/answers, it'd be super!
Thanks
