===== 1. MINIMAHL INTRO =====

Minimahl is a project from Ahlera, a small web design and development studio.

It is essentially a two-column WordPress theme, but is ready for a third column in case the user wishes to add advertisements or other sections.

This theme is provided free of charge to anyone who wishes to use it and can also be freely distributed through all mediums.  The only thing we ask in return is that you leave the link to Ahlera in the footer untouched.

We hope you enjoy Minimahl!



===== 2. SUPPORTED WORDPRESS VERSIONS =====

Minimahl has been tested and proven to work 100% correctly on a standard installation of the following versions of WordPress:

1.5.2
2.0
2.3.3
2.6.5
2.7
2.7.1



===== 3. INSTALLATION =====

Minimahl can be installed by following these steps:

1) Upload the folder "Minimahl" to .../wp-content/themes
2) Go to your WordPress admin panel and click Appearance
3) Click on Minimahl's thumbnail
4) Click "Activate Minimahl"



===== 4. ENABLING / MODIFYING THE AD =====

By default, Minimahl comes with the ad column turned off. If you want to turn it on and add your ad code, simply edit the file sidebar.php, included with this pack.

Find this:

<!-- Remove this comment to enable advertisements. -->
<!--     
    <a href="#">
      <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/ad.jpg" alt="ad" />
    </a>
-->    
<!-- Remove this comment to enable advertisements. --> 


Replace with this:

<a href="#">
      <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/ad.jpg" alt="ad" />
    </a>

Then, you have to insert the ad link. To do this, simply replace the # for the full URL of the ad link. You should also change ad.jpg for the graphic you want to use.



If you'd like to use Adsense do the following steps:

Find this:

<div id="right-wrapper">
<!-- Remove this comment to enable advertisements. -->
<!--     
    <a href="#">
      <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/ad.jpg" alt="ad" />
    </a>
-->    
<!-- Remove this comment to enable advertisements. -->   
</div>


Replace with this:

<div id="right-wrapper">

ADSENSE CODE HERE
   
</div>



You may also use this column for any other purpose.
