So the code can't look for <code>acamas-variant/</code> in the shared <code>wp-content/</code> directory.</p> <p>As a workaround, since in my setup I always copy any theme that I want to customize for one blog (so that the untouched original theme is still available for other blogs to select), I chose to make the code look for <code>acamas-variant/</code> inside the theme's directory itself.</p> <p>So I changed <code>acamas_variantcss()</code> to have:<br /> <pre><code>$variantcss_path = dirname( __FILE__ ) . &#39;/acamas-variant/variant.css&#39;; if (file_exists($variantcss_path)) { ?&gt; &lt;!-- Custom CSS --&gt; &lt;link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot; href=&quot;&lt;?php echo dirname( get_bloginfo(&#39;stylesheet_url&#39;) ) ?&gt;/acamas-variant/variant.css&quot; /&gt; &lt;?php }</code></pre> <p>By the way, in the original code for that function, I don't know the difference between checking for <code>variantcss_path</code> and <code>variantcss_url</code>: unless I can't read properly, the CSS link that is output is the same for both anyway. I don't know if that's intended or not. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/acamas-options#post-22041 Sun, 26 Jun 2011 13:52:37 +0000 huyz 22041@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>You may be suffering from the same problem I was.<br /> So check out <a href="http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/acamas-options-menu-is-missing" rel="nofollow">http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/acamas-options-menu-is-missing</a> </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/acamas-options-menu-is-missing#post-22040 Sun, 26 Jun 2011 13:51:45 +0000 huyz 22040@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>When I installed Acamas 1.0.2 on WordPress 3.0.5 running as a multisite, there was no "Acamas Options" menu to set the Featured Category.

When I upgraded the posts directly below the header disappeared. When I post new posts the title of my post no longer shows up below the header. The new post shows up in latest features and the older article moves to the archive section in the header, but directly below the header to the left of the primary aside and secondary aside there is just white space. If I write something very brief it shows up below, but all of my long articles no longer go to that area. I just did a Test Post with very little information and it ended up below the header. Is this a setting issue? Does anyone know why this changed with the update?</p> <p>update: So if I don't select a category the post goes below the header but not in the latest feature section. If I assign categories to my post it goes into the feature section but not below the latest feature header it did not do this before my upgrade to the latest version of Wordpress. I would like all of my posts to show up directly below the header like they did.
