Modern
Download: Modern.zip 0.9
Modern | WordPress Theme | version 0.9
Modern is a light, simple and modern theme for WordPress 1.5 or above. Page links in Modern are layed out horizontally at the top—rather than in the sidebar—creating a clearer distinction between permanent and updated content. For this reason, it is not recommended to use a great number of pages with this theme. Currently, only top-level pages are displayed in the top section—making it possible to exclude pages from appearing there.
Modern uses one slightly less common type-face—if present, the blog title is type set in Galliard (if not it downgrades gracefully). Only two image-files are used. The theme strives to use as semantic markup as possible and should validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS 2.1. Modern has been tested in Opera 9.0 beta, Firefox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6.0.
Features
- Fast and light
- Easy to use: well-structured css-file, no plug-ins required
- Page and Archive pages included
- Supports theme preview in WordPress 2.0
- Careful typography and use of whitespace
Installation
After you download Modern, unzip it and upload it to your <WP_INSTALL>/wp-content/themes/ directory. Then log into WordPress and activate the theme from within your presentation panel.

I fix a little problem on sidebar.php i change
<form method=”get” id=”searchform1″ I add a 1
<input type=”text” value=”” name=”s” id=”s1″ I add 1 on $s1 and on id=”s1″ also add 1
and on searchform.php

<input type=”text” value=”<?php echo wp_specialchars($s1,
on http://validator.w3.org/
it fix
Line 95, Column 27: ID ”searchform” already defined .

An ”id” is a unique identifier. Each time this attribute is used in a document it must have a different value. If you are using this attribute as a hook for style sheets it may be more appropriate to use classes (which group elements) than id (which are used to identify exactly one element).
Line 46, Column 25: ID ”searchform” first defined here .

Hi Ulf, I really love this theme.
I only want my blog to display one post on the post pages so i set it to 1 in the reading settings.
But how i can get my blog to display all the posts in a particular category when I have 30 posts. Same goes with search. If someone is searching for the term ”love” on my blog i want multiple posts to show. How can i make this happen?
currently my blog only shows 1 post when i do a search or view a category with multiple posts.
Thanks

Thank you for the time you spent for creating this theme and for giving it away so that people like me (read not into design and coding) can use it, too.
Tack så mycket.

My website is using Modern, and is widgetized- I downloaded a patch from the Internet somewhere. I will try and look for it.
januari 28th, 2009 at 19:23
First of all: Excellent theme! After searching hundreds and trying tens of different themes, I believe I have found the one I have been seeking in Modern.
Of course, I want to modify it a bit for my own use. Could anyone help me with how I can show the blog description either in the space that the title is in, below the page nav tabs, or at the top right of the pages (just below the title)?
Hope someone can help, and I thank you in advance for your assistance.

So elegant in its simplicity – refreshing as a fresh snowfall!
I do not have the exact quote, but Sir Isaac Stern had commented that the great violinists would know that the harder challenge is not the virtuoso fire and storm, but in the single sustained note.
Thank you very much for gifting everyone with the Modern theme, Ulf.
