There is a featured content section below the header link. This feature is built in using the Featured Content Gallery (FCG) plugin. Please download the latest version and follow the instruction found in “Readme.txt” to do the setup.
If you do not want to show this feature, just don’t install the plugin.
Blog Title and Description
The demo is showing a special font as below:
By default, after you install the theme, the blog title and description are showing the Arial font.
You can change the font style by following this instruction:
Part 1: Modifying Font Style
– Download this PSD zip file (also include the font that I use that is available free from fonts4free.net.)
– Extract and open the PSD file in the Photoshop/ImageReady/Gimp/PaintShop program
– Change the title and description using your desired font (you are free to modify the header image if you want)
– Save the image using this name: bg_header.jpg
– Upload the image to your server in the “/styles/custom/” folder
Part 2: Activating the Style
– Login to your WP admin
– Go to the options page of the Wooden Wall theme under “Appearance -> Wooden Wall”
– Find “Theme Style” under “Layout Setting”
– In the pull-down menu, select “custom.css”
– Save the setting and go to your site to see the changes.
