Hey there all, I just transferred a theme from tumbler called 101 designed by jarredbishop. I tried on Posterous, and it worked just fine (great). now I wanted to put the Contributors section under the search column. I tried like the instruction told me (http://posterous.com...ck_Contributors) but it didn't work out. Can somebody help me?

This is the code I found on the sidebar that stating the title and search box

<body>
<div id="bg"></div>
<div id="border_overlay"></div>
<div id="loading"></div>
<div id="right">
<h1><a href="/" class="title">{Title}</a></h1>
<p class="description">{Description}</p>
<div class="panel" id="search">
<form action="/search" method="get">
<input type="text" name="q" value="Type and press enter to search." id="searchfield" />
</form>
</div>

<p class="colphon"><a href="/archive" id="archive_link">Archive</a> | <a href="{RSS}">RSS</a></p>
</div>


And this is my original blog at tumblr with the same theme
konde.tumblr.com

and this one on posterous
konde.posterous.com

Attached is the theme on tumblr I copy pasted on TXT

Hi ekadar, so you copied the entire Contributors block and it didn't work? What was the result? Can you redo it so I can take a look at your Posterous and see how it turned out? It may help in narrowing down the problem.

You might also try dropping the Contributors section inside {block:ListSidebar}{/block:ListSidebar}

Do you have {block:Contributor} just inside the ul and does is close just inside </ul>? I'm assuming so, but just making sure, because that part is a required repeater to show *all* contributors.

So it's either that or your friend hasn't actually been added as a contributor. =]
