Holiday WordPress is a gorgeous holiday theme for WordPress. With transparent backgrounds, it allows your main background to be seen through various parts of the design, which allows for the ultimate flexibility in changing the background to something that fits your style. Theme includes a featured post area with the option of adding a custom field image.

Прикольно. Вопрос только в том, как это будет выглядеть в будущем :)

Likeps. Would it hard to swap out the .gif site title for a dynamic blog title and strap line?

LikeHi Chris! Love this theme! The only thing it's missing is a search field... Do you have any plans for an updated release?

LikeChris -- Something is definitely wrong with this theme. When I clicked The categories, it's only showing one entry out of many post. Also when I clicked "Previous Entry", it's blank.

LikeHi, Chris
This theme has a little problem. If you choose any tag, not all entries will be displayed on the page.

LikeFor some reason the sidebar only loads correctly on the main page, but not on the single post or page templates. I can't see any reason why it is acting differently on the main page vs. the other pages.

LikeThank you for your wonderful theme. But it have some problems in IE7 and IE8: the head "featured" picture went down, the "continue reading" disapeared, the name of commenter left left side, and the archieves title slightly up. Expected for updating. thanks.

Like@Patricia there is an includes folder that contains a file called featured.php. That is where the code is for the featured post. The default is for the latest post to show up in the featured post section. Then you need to create a custom field on the post for "image" and it should show up in the right spot, as long as it exists and is the correct size.

LikeHi Chris
Thanks for making this them available. It's perfect!
I do have a quick question though, where do I go to change the Featured Post and set it to a particular post or category/tag? I recall seeing a section to stipulate a particular post when I first installed it, but can't seem to remember WHERE and I've been trying to search for it for hours!
Thanks for your help.

LikeIn IE7, the "Continue Reading" label in the featured section disappears. Otherwise, this looks like a solid theme.

LikeI've tried it with 4 or 5 other themes and the posts show up on the respective category pages. I believe its something within index.php stopping it as there is no category.php file so it reverts back? But im not 100% sure.

LikeI'm not sure if it is the template causing the issue or if it is your WordPress install. Try with another theme and see if you have the same issue. If it appears to be something wrong with the theme, please send me a link to it. I would really like to see it.

LikeHi Chris,
Thanks for the great template, i am currently using the template for my blog and i am having a problem with the categories. All posts made and put in categories show up on the homepage but when i click on the individual category in the sidebar or link directly to it in my address bar i just get a blank page instead of the categorized posts.
I wondered if you had encountered this problem before and know of a solution?
Many Thanks.

Likehi Chris,
very nice and clean theme.
i d like to know how to change the "featured" post that is on the top on the website
by default, it seems to be the latest post written. Is there a category or anything to set to change that ? thanks a lot

LikeDarren, technically, while this theme should work with the IE6, I can't guarantee it will. However, I did add a reference to IE8.js, which forces old versions of IE to act like a standards-compliant browser. I may look at the IE6 issues at some point to see if I can't get it working properly.

LikeI usually hate "christmas" or "holiday" inspired themes, because a lot of them just look cheesy with snowflakes and ornaments pasted everywhere. But this one is truly classy and easy on the eyes while still remaining "holiday" inspired. Gorgeous!
