Like many others, the first WordPress theme I used was the Blix theme. I liked its simplicity, especially the way its archives presented all articles by month. Many friends have been continuously improving and expanding Blix. You can check out the introduction on my beloved WaterCookedFish's website; he is a hardcore Blix fan. Since I started reading his blog, he has always been using it. SEO Dave released a Google AdSense version which can be downloaded for free. Before using it, you need to modify the $GoogleADID in adsense.php to your own ID. However, SEO Dave's 03 version will require payment. Additionally, some Blix fans have ported Blix to other blog systems, such as this Z-Blog Blix theme.
In the past few days, I've been studying the jQuery tab plugin, so I wanted to practice it on my blog theme. I chose the Blix Google AdSense version and added tab functionality to the sidebar. The tabs are implemented using the jQuery idTabs plugin. Another jQuery Tabs plugin called UI Tabs has powerful features, but the cost of these features is a large code size. On the other hand, idTabs only has 3K of code, and its functions are sufficient for my needs. However, I still chose the flora skin from UI Tabs and made simple modifications to the idTabs source code to adapt to the tab style requirements, which could be considered a combination of both. All statements related to Google AdSense have been commented out. Friends who need AdSense just need to remove the comment symbols.
