About Simple Round
Simple Round is, as the name implies a simple theme designed to load fast and take advantage of CSS3 properties. Because it takes advantage of the CSS3 border-radius property, it only uses 2 images. Furthermore Both images are optional. One is used to create a titled background for the page, & the other is used as a banner. While the theme won’t look pixel perfect across every browser & operating system combination, it will fail gracefully on the browsers that fall short of the CSS standards.
Features
- The theme uses a two column layout.
- It is centered on the page.
- It Can be fluid, or fixed width.

I am not able to edit this theme. In the WP editor, it says that I need to make the file writable before I can save my changes, but the permissions are set already set at 777.
Leslie,
what file are you trying to edit, and does the directory that file is contained in have the proper permissions?
Hi Dan
I hope to use your theme on grinde.dk (test at grinde.dk/new).
Do you have any suggestions on how to remove the automatically generated “Home” in the top menu. In Danish “Forside” = Home.
All the best
Morten
Ohh Sorry I found out by myself. In header.php I just deleted:
<a href="/” title=”Home”>Home
All the best
Morten
Morten, I’m glad you Found it. At some point, I’m planing to write an admin screen, that will let people control the stuff I currently have hard coded into the Theme.

I am trying to change the widgets in the sidebar and it is not working. How do I change them? I drag and drop, but the blog stays the same with the default ones you had in there. Please help! (love the design overall)
Thanks.

Hi Lori,
What version of WordPress are you running? Are your running a caching plugin? Have you cleared out your browser cache?
Somehow I lost the footer. I didn’t take out the code in the footer:
Or the code out of the index.php, page.php or single.php
What other reasons would make the footer not show up?
Carol
I found the problem:
IN index.php, page.php & single.php copy and delete everything under get footer tag.
Then paste it into the footer and delete wp_footer tag. Then footer comes back and everything works.
Carol
I’m glad you figured it out Carol.
Nice Theme!!
we use it in our local Time bank!
Thanks Dan!
