XML Sitemap Generator Problem
Hello,
i’ve just installed this theme onto my blog. So far looks very nice. But i’ve got a problem on my xml sitemap generator. It said that those 2 files (xml & gz) can’t be accessed. I’m not sure why because on my other blog that plugin works just fine. Do you have the answer for this problem?
anyway, thx for the design. It really looks nice :)

How to Add Images to WordPress Posts
Hi Linda,
Unless I’m missing something you can put images on any post no matter what WordPress theme you use. Adding images is part of WordPress not the theme.
Will say you need to think through a little where to put your images since there’s a ad block at the top of the content on all my AdSense themes which can look a little weird if the first thing on a post is a wide image. Sometimes there isn’t enough space to fit the image and the ad unit, so one has to go down the page leaving a blank space.
I try to add some text before my first image so this doesn’t happen since it doesn’t look very good.
Another way around it is to make sure your first image isn’t too wide, my wife uses one of my themes on her picture blog, you can see an example here
The image and the ad unit just fit side by side, if the image was a little wider it would drop below the ad unit leaving a big blank space. I hate it when that happens :)
You could also edit the AdSense settings within the adsense.php file and make that ad unit a lot thinner, but this will impact on earnings since the square ad unit at the top has a high CTR. I’d rather think my posts out as I make then than loose revenue.

Have you got an answer regards the Adsense channel options?
Looking at all comments here & Dave replies – seems to ignore it…
Your advice please.
Tnx!
WordPress Themes with Google AdSense Ad Channel Support
Google AdSense Ad Channel is not supported with this AdSense theme. This version of Blix with AdSense is quite old now and bits don’t work correctly in WordPress 3.* and I have no plans to fix it.
You are to a degree correct about not answering comments here (I answer the odd one now and again). I’ll reiterate earlier comments, this theme is no longer supported/updated, you are going to run into problems if you use it and I have no plans to update it. If I responded to the comments it would be with something like “this version of Blix is old and no longer works correctly in WordPress 3.*”.
If you are looking for an all singing, all dancing SEO/AdSense theme you’ll need to buy my Talian 5 theme (it’s running on this site and is by far the best WordPress SEO/AdSense them online today, been working on the code for almost 4 years, helps make me around £1,000 a month from AdSense) . Talian 05 does come with full AdSense channel support and lots of other features.
Oh, I also have a couple of free AdSense themes on the above site and since I’m phasing out some of the less popular version 03 AdSense/SEO themes there will be more free ones (that I currently charge for) in the future.

Blix WordPress Theme Bug?
I just wanted to let you know I am using your template on my new blog. I have replaced most of the Google ads with other ads. I’ve pretty much got it set up how I want now (except I might lose the rest of the Google ads later) and it’s working fine.
The only problem I’ve had was the very bottom of the blog title was cut off in the header and it didn’t display the tagline (not sure if it was supposed to). Anyway, I made the header shorter so it kind of looks like the text is supposed to be cut off where it is. It was just the bottoms of the rounded letters that were cut off.
I have noticed that when I view a single post or view a category, my sidebar doesn’t display properly. Instead of the normal sidebar, all that shows up is the recent blog posts and links. Everything else is gone.

WordPress Blix Theme Bug Fix
Hi Beth
Glad yo like the theme.
The title header problem was solved in the latest update when I added WordPress 2.5 compatibility (only free AdSense theme I updated on this site BTW, should work fine with WordPress 2.6.3 as well).
The Sidebar issue, I’d guess you’ve edited either the functions.php file or sidebar.php file and made a mistake (very easy to do).
Try uploading the original functions and sidebar files to see if it fixes the issue.

How to Add WordPress Navigation Links?
Hi,a few questions I hope you can help me with:
1)My blog is on a page within a website that has other non-blog pages. How do I add a link on the Blix horizontal navigation to link back to my website’s home page (in addition to the blog home link that is already in the Blix theme)?
2)How do I add a rotating banner image in place of the aqua default banner?
Thanks.
