Gm Roper Writes: Howdy… started using the heckerped wordpress theme and can’t tell you how much I love it.  I’ve done my own photoshopped headers (all of them) and have received multiple e-mails from my friends telling me how “neat” it is.
I have one question though.  I’d like to place some links (Technorati for one example) on the sidebar without  having to use one of the Textwidgets.  I’ve tried several places that I thought would work in both the sidebar editor and the CSS editor, none of which worked because either I’m not doing it right or not putting the info in the right place.  Can you tell me how/where to put those links?

GM, Hey Now.
They would go in the sidebar. I would look for a the line that looks like this:

/* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */

and above that you’ll see a UL ( un-ordered list ) start. Paste your supplied code on a line above that UL and it shouldn’t get any of the list formatting that a widget is going to give you.

If you can’t save that widget.php file from inside WP then it is a permissions problem, contact your hosting provider.

Cheers,

JTk

It has come to my attention that some people may be interested in licensing the Heckerped WordPress theme and removing the attribution link(s).

I have decided that for $35 per domain you can license Heckerped and remove all the links back to Doc5. Additionally everyone that licenses the Heckerped theme will receive priority updates.

Just contact us and tell us that you are interested in licensing it and we’ll send you a paypal invoice and then a doc5 free version of the theme when the invoice is paid.

You can download the original version of Heckerped WordPress theme here.

You can get a Photoshop file of the header here so that you can add your photos to the random photo header function.  Just upload your photos into the header directory.

Before I forget, I want to make sure that I credit:

Clearly Ambiguous’ photostream

For the photos that I am using for the rotating header. They are very nice indeed and this theme would not be nearly as cool without them. Scott Robinson takes some awesome photos, and you can use them in your projects too, you just have to make sure that you give him attribution.

I have been trying to clean this theme up since I decided to set it free and release the negative energy… It now features the following the features:

• Fully wigitized
• Tag support
• Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional
• Clean, readable CSS file
• Rotating header photo
• Smart title tags

As always, if you can help me improve this theme just leave a comment.

This is the heckerped WordPress theme. I created this theme for a client that skipped out on me with the development files and screwed me out of payment. I asked him to either stop using it or pay up. He chose to do neither.

I had a number of options, but instead of going all negative on him I decided to light a candle instead of cursing the darkness, cauze as you know Evelle here and l never go anywhere without there’s a purpose…

So my loss is your gain - here is the heckerped WordPress theme, named for the unnamed client that it was created for. I am setting it free. I am attempting to turn a negative situation into a positive one.

Install it - give it a try - send me your feedback - help me turn this into a World Class Free WordPress theme.
