Gridline Lite is a free minimalist theme for WordPress 2.8 and up with full sidebar and bottombar widget support that utilizes a CSS framework to help streamline development and customization. Gridline pulls in the most recent post, with five recently posted stories listed in offset backgrounds below to keep your readers attention.
Installation
- Unzip the downloaded file
- Upload the entire “Gridline Lite″ folder to your “/wp-content/themes/” folder
- Log in into your WordPress control panel
- Click the Presentation tab
- Select the “Gridline Lite” screenshot
Configuration
- GETTING STARTED: To change the number of main entries listed on your homepage, click Options > Reading in your WordPress interface.
- Photos posted within each entry’s post will should not exceed 590px wide, otherwise, the images will bleed into the sidebar and make you site look icky.
- YOUR AUTHORS PAGE: Gridline Lite comes packaged with an author archive (authors.php), which will display some author specific info pulled from the Users page in your WordPress installation. In order for the author’s image to show up, you’ll need to place a jpg of the author titled by the author’s last name in the wp-content/themes/gridline/images/authors/ folder. For instance, mine is Allender.jpg, sized at 75px X 75px. Here is an example author page.
- STYLES.CSS: Unlike most WordPress themes which plug all the css in one file called styles.css, Gridline utilizes the Blueprint CSS framework to help separate positioning, typography, forms and what I’ll refer to as custom or gridline specific styles. To edit all custom gridline specific styles, you’ll need to edit the file style.css in your wp/wp-content/themes/gridline/ directory.
Great theme. I love it!!!

@Stan S.
Just did it. Thanks for posting!
great theme! thanks a lot.
I’m having a problem – what do I need to change to make the images stand above the text and not to wrapped in the text?
thanks 🙂
Great Theme,
How do I modify the rss so that it only display the content and not the title?
very interesting.
i’m adding in RSS Reader
Hi,
Great them! Just wondering if you have instructions for working with the wide page theme. The one at http://gridline.thadallender.com/page-2/ looks great — how do I set it up to add boxes and other sections?
Thanks so much!
Gridline Light – another error: When you click the “comments” on the main index page, nothing happens, because the links points to “#comments”. Shouldn’t there be
<a href="#comments">
instead?Ooops. I meant: NOT just the #comments, but a link to the individual article’s page instead?
Where do I edit the text for the “About ” Box on the upper right of the screen?
Runs perfectly fine after some adjustments in German on my website.
Hey, I just cranked up your awesome theme. How I also have the same problem where images do not clear a line after. I have tried changing the style.css to clear the floats on img tags, but it is not working. I hate to ask you since I know this has to be an easy thing to fix. Can you help me on this? Thanks!
Also, the “Previously” section displays the same stories that are displayed on the front page, not the true previous stories.
Anyone know how to change the code so that you actually come to the comment, when clicking on “Comment” from a post on the start page?
many tanks

admin, I have trouble with this theme, when I post the images in the template deconfiguration me, please help me :S
@all:
Replace the following code:
comment_count > 0) {
echo ‘ | ‘;
if($post->comment_count > 1) {
echo ‘‘ . $post->comment_count . ‘ Comments‘;
} else {
echo ‘1 Comment‘;
}
}
edit_post_link(‘Edit’, ‘ | ‘, ”);
?>
with
|
It does the same, but now the link to the comments does his job…
greetings from Germany
I’m sorry. Go to http://gfnblog.de/gridline.html – there is the correct code…
I like this theme so much because it loads fast. No graphics galore, which is useless in a website.

I’m trying out this theme but have one wee problem – it sets itself into my browsing history (sorry I’m not that technical) so that whenever I make a design change ie: move widgets around etc… then I can’t see how it would display on my site. Help?

This is a lovely theme, which I am using for my blog now. Thanks very much! I have just 3 questions on customization:
1. Because I use a lot of italics, I want to modify it. Currently, italicized text shows in yellow background color. What is the CSS element I should change to modify this?
2. I also don’t want to display the ‘contributors” link on my sidebar. How do I get rid of it?
3. I also don’t want to display my blogroll on the right sidebar. How do I do knock it off?
Many thanks again! 🙂 I’ll be a regular visitor here.
thank you
cool ^_^
