    Hello, I’m trying to convert this theme (http://designdisease.com/preview/evidens-dark) form my webpage and I want to mimic the function.

    There are many ways to do that. One that I use is a combination of CSS and url_segment variables. It’s a common usage in EE. This Link may help get you started.

    Or you can use embed variables with embedded templates—I’ve covered this approach in a tutorial.

    Thank you very much for the reply, I decided to use the segment approachment, I think is more easy.

    Now I have a problem with the archives page, I don’t know how to make the page to show the month I click on the sidebar, here’s the code for my archives page.

    Also, if you want to visit the page to see the progress here’s the link http://www.lagrann.com/prueba

    Looks good. Clean.

    The home page image hangs off to the right and covers the links on the right, in both Mac Firefox and Safari.

    It looks fine with a 1280 resolution, I don’t check it with the 1024 resolution we put and advert on the site to low resolutions, anyone has any idea to solve this problem, to put the slideshow in automatic width, it’s possible?.

    Thanks a lot.
