100+ Custom Emptiness
Five months since v0.1 was released, Emptiness Theme has been downloaded 5,867 times and given 4/5 stars average rating. Not bad. Even though it’s not as popular as other themes with fancy graphic design, I think Emptiness has its own target audience with it’s simplistic style.
I’m particularly happy to find (via Google search) more than 100 blogs using Emptiness Theme with customised header image and some with customised css. Check them out on my Picasa Web album.
I used Nautilus Image Converter to resize all images via a simple select all, right click, and resize. If only it also has an auto image quality compression then it would be perfect.

It’s probably because your blog is using WordPress 2.1.3 . Emptiness Theme requires WordPress 2.3 or later.
Nice theme, i’m going to try… :)
Thanks! ;)
Hi Cliffano
Thanks for this awesome theme! It matches my needs perfectly.
I’m trying to remove the “Feed” & “Log out” links on the left of the picture, as I will not be using them.
Also, I’m looking how to remove the info left to the posts (like in this post’s case, this info is “25 Oct 2008, 1:40am Projects: bitpress emptiness themes wordpress by Cliffano Subagio”).
Can you give me a hint on where I must do this?
Thanks!
Ben,
To remove “Feed” & “Log out”, you can remove / comment out the lines from emptiness/header.php . Find the word “Feed” and “loginout()” and delete them.
To remove the post info, have a look at emptiness/index.php. Find the word “the_author_posts_link()” and you can delete the lines that you don’t need.
HTH.
Yes!
For the Feed & Log out, it did the trick, and I’m pretty sure I did it correctly.
For the post info, I’ll see when I’ll be posting, I’ve still much work to do.
BTW, your theme is excellent, I love it, thanks for sharing this work!
Thanks also for your extremely fast support.
I am trying to change the photo in the header (trees and leaves) to my own photo – I am very new to this and am pretty lost..can you help? Great theme – looking forward to going live with it after I change the image!
Laurie, please follow the instruction on the FAQ http://code.google.com/p/bitpress/wiki/Emptiness#FAQ
Hello!
Can you inform me how to remove the posted by box inbetween the left sidebars. This would be a big help.
merci.
Matthew
Thank you for your direction – I wasn’t able to do it but a friend helped me out and it looks great – it’s up and running and I love the way it looks and works… thanks for a great theme – it’s just what I was looking for (with a few small changes…)!
Matthew, I’ve added your question to the FAQ since it is commonly asked. http://code.google.com/p/bitpress/wiki/Emptiness#FAQ
Thanks a lot. Nice ‘customer’ service.
peace

I worked out how to take it all out, with out an error page occuring..
I love the design. I have been using it on my blog for the last few months. Thanks so much.
One question: I want to change the Log-in link to lowercase but can’t find the place to do it in the CSS stuff. Can you help me?
Cheers,
c
Chris, you can set the lowercase style in CSS for div#header div.side left a . If you only want to change only the Log-in link, then have a look at header.php file, find ‘wp_loginout()’ function call and apply the lowercase style to the <li> tag that wraps the call.
good theme. just what i needed. thanks for sharing
