Formatting with tinymce will lead to very inconsistent design. This is the whole reason for Wordpress and CSS - you keep formatting apart from content. Not sure how, or why you would do this.

I am using it for our church, namechurch.org Love it, very versatile and clean beautiful job. I do have one question I loaded the tinymce advanced however due to the nature of the css the fonts do not change in posts or pages. I thought I would check to with you on how to allow format changes in the posts. Thanks again for great work. Jay Hey Great template! I am using it for our church, namechurch.org

This is my first wordpress site http://oasissundayschool.com. I do have a question though. I have enabled rss feeds on the right column from our local paper. I would really rather have the rss on the left column. I've looked at the code for both columns but I'm not sure what I should remove from the right and add to the left. I appreciate any help!

Have you also upgraded WordPress in the process. Removed or changed plugins? Are your other themes OK? I’m not sure how PHP5 would mess up a theme. Have you also upgraded WordPress in the process.

I have upgraded my PHP to 5 and now the DELTA theme is all messed up in IE 6.5 and 7. It did not do this until i upgraded to php 5. I just wondered if this theme has problems with php 5? Hey Tim!

This lmits it to the first 55 words. But it depends how long the words are! So for me the only sure way is to use the MORE tag when writing your posts. Melanie,

i’m still looking into how i could make the main post to a limited number of words. i had it set to where i only want 1 post but wanted it to remain in same size regardless of how long and short the messages are in the post.

blessings to you and thanks for all your hard work!

And if I click a post in the Archives it's not opening to the post it just stays in the archives page. and.. i wanted to have just the excerpts of posts on the front page so i can limit exactly how many words i'd like there. how do i do that? any help is appreciated, thanks! hi tim - i just wanted to show you a project that i am working on for our church using this theme.. it is not done yet, im basically still playing around with it before i get it live and in its own domain.. here’s the link: http://www.westdecrepito.com/project
