It's been a long time since I posted an article on this blog because I was working on the highly SEO optimized thesis theme exactly similar to that of Shoutmeloud blog. Many people wanted the widgetized version of the thesis footer and the complete theme too. To all those who eagerly waited - here we are, with the basic version of the Shoutmeloud thesis theme!!!
The template which I have designed is exactly similar to the shoutmeloud theme except for few areas. The comments section and the ads below each post are the areas where the coding has to be worked out. I will launch an updated version for this theme in a few weeks time. In fact, the step by step customization for each portion of this theme will follow up in the upcoming weeks - includes the coding for the sidebar widgets (subscription box, banner ads, etc..) as well.
You may have a look at the following two pictures for a complete screen-shot of the home page and the post page. Hit the demo link above to check out a live demo of the thesis theme now.
Since the features for this template are many in number, I plan to publish articles about each feature in the upcoming weeks. So, don't forget to subscribe to my blog - Subscribe Via RSS. Else, you will lose track of the customization. However, I will list out the features of this template here.
FEATURES OF THIS TEMPLATE:
1. TOP NAVIGATION BAR - Added | For Customization - CLICK HERE
2. HEADER WITH 468x60 BANNER AD - Added
3. SUB NAVIGATION BAR - Added | For Customization - CLICK HERE
4. GOOGLE ADSENSE LINK UNIT (728x15) - Added | Replace with your ID
5. ADSENSE UNIT BELOW POST TITLE (300x250) - Added | Replace with your ID
6. READ MORE AND OPINION BUTTONS - Added
7. RELATED POSTS - Added
8. MULTIPLE AUTHOR WIDGETS - Added | For Customization - CLICK HERE.
9. RETWEET AND FACEBOOK SHARE BUTTONS - Added
10. SOCIAL BOOKMARKING BUTTONS BELOW POST TITLE - Added
11. SEARCH BAR - Added
12. SIDEBAR SUBSCRIPTION WIDGET - CLICK HERE
13. NEWER/OLDER POSTS/HOME BUTTONS - Added
14. FOOTER (For Blog Categories and Logo) - CLICK HERE
15. BACK TO TOP BUTTON - Added
All those which carry the text coding will be posted soon or article coming soon mean the articles are yet to be published. Once I publish the article for customization, I will be updating the list here. You can also send me suggestions via comments about various other features which you wish to have on this theme - for example, a featured content or an ad unit at the end of the post that will facilitate 125x125 ad banners, etc..
Moreover, if you feel some portion of the template is little bit different from that of the original shoutmeloud thesis theme, you may leave your opinions via comments. I will answer to all your queries. So, share your thoughts via comments!!! We would love to hear from you!!!

REPLYOne of the nice posts seen in you site, keep up the work dude ;)
REPLY@Vamsi@HoverPcHacks: Thanks for the comment buddy! I'm glad that you liked this post. Wait for the updates!!!
REPLYThanks for sharing this but why you didn't add the slider in the template.
REPLY@vikash shankar: Thanks for the comment! I'm working on it! I will soon be adding those added features in this template. This is the basic version. Further customizations will follow this basic version!
REPLYWaiting for thesis footer launch
REPLY@Jasi: Footer launch? You mean the addition of blog categories and the logo. Right? I will soon post about them. Mean while, you can try playing with the basic version of this template. Anyway, Thanks for the comment buddy!
REPLY@Mukund I'm eagerly waiting for the widget footer launch... because i need to add random post widget in footer...!!
REPLY@Jasi: Hey Jasi! This is the widgetized version buddy! You can add your random posts widget straight away. Just download the template and proceed with it!
REPLYI loved the template and domnloaded it but the read more hack is not working right and the footer is not well coded. What should i do cos am new to all these html stuff and want to learn them.
REPLY@kene ohiaeri: Please let me know what problem you faced with the read more buttons. Only when you explain the bugs, I can post an update on this blog. I'm about to finish an update with footer now. So, I'm sure your issue will be addressed in it!
REPLY@share tips: Thanks for the comment buddy! Yeah! I'm about to complete the customization for the footer. Will soon publish it!
REPLYI just found out that its a manual read more hack. Can you please post the automatic one so that one can at least choose which one he prefers. Thanks
REPLY@Kene ohiaeri: Yeah! Manual read more posts are better when compared to the automated ones. Well, I will consider this issue. Will find out the coding for that and let you know once I find it!
REPLYThanks for sharing this but why you didn't add the slider in the template.
REPLY@MukundThanks. I really appreciate it.
REPLYHey Mukund,
REPLYNice template. Thanks for share. I really like this template.
@Rajib Kumar: Thanks for the comment buddy! I hope you enjoy the upcoming customizations with this template!
REPLYThe read more hack is not working .
REPLYThe whole post is displayed which makes it look ugly.
Hope to see it get fixed soon.
n yea thanks a lot for the template.
The Read More button is not working . .I want to use this template for my blog,but without read more the template is lame.
REPLYPls fix it
Good theme for bloggers.
REPLYthis looks cool and prof. but the full post is displayed . the read more hack isn't working.
I have 1 more question in mind.
When the read more hack is enabled where will the images appear ? LHS or RHS ?
Coz On the Shoutmeloud website the image thumbnails are on the RHS.
Can we customize this ?
Can we change it to manual and increase the image size displayed and no. of words which appear before read more Hack ?
please fix the template.
Thanks a lot for the share !
@Sagar: Thanks for the comment Sagar! The read more hack will work provided you use the jump break in your post editor on blog. Just hit the jump break where ever you want to and it will work perfectly fine!
REPLY@Mukund
REPLYaww ! thanks for d info .
I'm definitely gonna try this template on my blog. :)
@Vikash and Sam: Guys!! Please follow these instructions to make the read more hack working.
REPLY1. Ensure that you have updated your blog editor. If not do that by going to the settings tab and update the post editor.
2. Now, write an article on your blog. Look out for the jump break icon. Hit the icon and check out your home page. You will find the read more hack working.
@Sagar
REPLYThe read more hack is working bro with the jump-break but the size of the image displayed is very large n its not on the right or left side.
can u figure out this ?
check it here : http://testblog-newssavvy.blogspot.com/
@Sagar: That is because you did not fix the dimensions for your image. Click on the picture in your post editor and select size as "small" and alignment as "left". You will see that image moves to the left and it will be smaller in size. Hope you understood what I meant!
REPLY@Mukund
REPLYYea dude....I figured it out & now its working like a charm..
thanks a lot for the share n help :)
I appreciate it!
@Sagar: Yup! You can contact me via email for any help you need related to blogging! Enjoy the theme!
REPLYSuperb man!!! you have designed it to perfection!!! I just revieved the template and the temp is very good for seo. But one question, why did'nt you optimise the CSS for more readability?
REPLY@Amit: Thanks for the comment buddy! I do know there are few issues here and there but I'm pretty sure that this template would get a par score when compared to the original thesis theme on shoutmeloud! The reason why I did not compress the CSS is for more readability!!!
REPLYhey mukund.. The facebook share button isn't configured properly on the homepage. when the post is shared from the homepage, it doesnt share the post , instead the blog's homepage is shared.
REPLYI've updated my template to thesis check it @ http://latestnewssavvy.blogspot.com
@Sagar: Yeah! You are right! I will fix the issue and post an update about this issue. Thanks for identifying the bug buddy!
REPLYReally nice template!
REPLYI'm totally in love with the layout!
Great job!
i"m using this template! but why the full post is displayed and the read more hack isn't working. How can I set it to automatic without hiitting ythe jump break when I create an article? And chow can I have something like your subscribe to my blog widget? thanks!!!!
REPLY@Calai: I have designed the template to have read more hack with the jump break because it gives more control to the user. For automatic read more hacks, you can refer my blog. You will have a post that explains to install the automatic read more hack. As far as the subscribe icon is concerned, just wait for another day or so, I will post an article about it!!!
REPLYI am using this template can you tell me how do I enable background color for Links on my blog ? Like you can see the links on www.shoutmeloud.com, have blue background color on mouse hover ?
REPLY@Sam: I have already enabled the same for the links. If you wish to have them some where specifically, then let me know. I will help you out Sam!!
REPLYI just want the background color for links in my post content, I don't want it to appear for links on my sidebar, header etc. How do I enable this ?
REPLY@Sam: Remove the attribute in the CSS part that simply defines for links on places. Change the color as you wish. When you define the post content CSS, enable the blue color. I hope you understand. If not contact me via email and I will help you out!
REPLYThanks a lot for your work bro...
REPLY@Ashik Nesin: Yup!! Thanks a lot for your comment buddy! Enjoy the customization series that comes with this theme!
