All right guys! I am back again (still alive and kicking). This time, I bring for my lovely readers a brand new WordPress theme called “Nublu“.
This is a sleek blue colored theme that comes with a configurable slider, drop-down menus and Cufon-enabled headlines. The theme also sports a twitter bird that will sing out your latest tweet from your Twitter.com account. Nublu has automatic thumbnail generation, as long as you have a picture uploaded with your post. WordPress 3.0+ menu system is integrated into this theme for easy customization of your navigation menu.
Nublu Theme is totally free to download and has been tested with all the major browsers.
Instructions
The theme is mostly plug and play. You can configure your slider and the social icons from the Appearance -> Nublu options in the admin section of WordPress. For the 125×125 ads, just open up the file called sidebar.php and edit the code.
For the logo image, just replace the logo.png in the images folder with one of your own. Make sure that its a transparent PNG image.
Demo & Download
And if you like the theme or have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment!

Thanks
We are using the Nublu theme for our school website and the menu was delete, trying to recreate it but will not add back. Is code missing. Any help would be appreciated? Thanks!
How are you trying to add the menu?
On the admin edit screen we go to appearance then menu. The add an item feature is not working. All we can do is select a page already created and add those. Also will not let us drop and drag to change the order. All this stopped working when we updated WordPress. Thanks
This is very educational content and written well for a change. It’s nice to see that some people still understand how to write a quality post.!
Twitter feed at the top is stuck spinning again. Can you link to the new js file and instructions to update? Thanks very much!

Nice theme. Bookmark it for next blog use.

WordPress sounds easy to work with, and appears to have a lot of options. I may just have to start using it…
Nice theme looking for a theme like this from long time. 😀
Great looking theme, but crashes safari & chrome on iMac (2012) running Mt. Lion
I love this theme
Wow, so nice theme, it’s look so fresh, great job
Wow. This is a most excellent, and well thought out, designed and developed theme. I’ve been using another theme but it is not nearly as easy to use as Impero. Your documentation is so clear, and all the elements work as they should.
Please Help! My twitter bird is no longer working, just spins and spins. Was working perfectly until recently. Suggestions?
twitter bird problem.
Any luck? My twitter bird is no longer working, just spins and spins. Was working perfectly until recently. Suggestions?
Nublu is very nice wordpress theme! I have downloaded and installed the theme on my blog. Thanks to Author for this creative effort.
The theme is really cool. Thanks.
Just one question, the twitter bird aint singing no more and the only work around I found is what guys suggested here to comment out the /image/loader.gif which stopped the spinning. Thanks guys.
Anyone else with a workaround the make the bird sing again?
Love the theme, but the non-working twitter feed is disappointing. I commented out the images/loader.gif in the header.php just so I could stop looking at the spinning icon.
Are there any ideas on how to fix this issue? I’m assuming twitter changed something the broke the code…
Thanks
Hi there, I really like this templete, However I cant get the twitter colum to work, its just blank with this ico spining and it wont stop.
Even on your preview of the templete its doing the same thing?
Can anyone help me with this issue please. Thanks 🙂
I want to out 3 columns widgets at footer please help me with this??
Hi,
I love this theme. Since the branding of my logo is red I just wander if there is a way to change the color theme?
Cheers,
Stephan
This is such a perfect theme for my blog
Hi,
I am having the same issue with the tweets on a client website. Does anyone have a solution yet? I assume its down to the new system twitter are bringing in?
Thanks,
Sean
im using this theme in my blog, tweets are working fine.
What’s the link of your blog?
ive just installed, but i cant get the tweets to work, any ideas?
I run into the same problem, where I get a continuous spinner loader in the Twitter feed cloud regardless of having the Twitter ID field populated in the NuBlue Options. Can this function be successfully removed from the header.php?
yeah just find loader.gif in the header.php and delete that. Worked for me
Great theme, but I got the same loader.gif spinner problem, no tweets are shown. They did show a few weeks back, but somehow they stopped working. Any ideas guys?
The twitter worked with me first well, since a few weeks it will not work anymore. Anyone who uses this theme experiencing these problems. I have created a support ticket on this website, but have had no response.
sorry for my bad english, I’m a Dutchman;)
I’m running into the same problem. My twitter feed now just has a spinning wheel waiting for twitter to load. Would love a fix!
Same problem here with this, worked before but not now… How can we get it fixed??
The developers from this theme? How can we fix this problem??
WOW…nice
nice themes. thanks.
nice themes. thanks for share.

Cool theme just what I need for wordpress
Hi,
Thanks for the awesome them, just what I need.
This post delighted my thoughts to get a new theme for my wordpress blog!
Great work on the theme. I am seriously thinking about trying out this theme for my blog.
Viry nice themes wordpress, thank
Love the template, but can’t get the slider to automatically slide through recent posts on the front page; you have to manually click on the numbers. Any suggestions?
This can be a great theme for an Sport/fitness blog!
nice theme!
thanks a lot
Love this theme. Only problem is I don#t have a photo in every post so lots of posts on the main page have a horrible “no image” icon beside them. is there an uncomplicated way to turn off the automatic thumbnail generation so that there are no thumbnails on the main page even if a post contains an image?
Hi,
Is this theme compatible with the latest WordPress?
Thanks
Hii can anyone show me how to customize the “bottomcontent”. At the widget section only have 1 sidebar.
You’ll have to edit the footer.php
Here the above themes are nice and wonderful.
Great theme, thanks!
Thanks for the great looking theme – I have just started building a new site, and I think it will look great with only a few modifications. I have only spent 10 minutes looking at the code to change things like the slider speed, cufon calls, etc – and the code is very nicely laid out and easy to find what you want.
Nice Job!!
Love the template, but can’t get the slider to automatically slide through recent posts on the front page; you have to manually click on the numbers. Any suggestions?
This is what I am looking for as well. Is there any option to make the featured posts auto slide?
Thanks for sharing your professional wordpress theme! Really love it! I also recommend a Google + button on your website!
Thank you for this nice theme. Good work. Two thumps up!
really great themes..I’ve got it for my site.thanks so much .Well done !
Thank’s for share, i just download this theme.
Hallo.. can you show the example that’s work in your blog? cause i have try to edit my blog, but i’m still don’t undestand
I’m curious to find out what blog system you happen to be utilizing? I’m experiencing some small security issues with my latest website and I’d like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any suggestions?
Unfortunately even with clean install, clean database, same script error.
Very good theme thanks 😉
I cannot find the logo.png file within the image folder. I found a logo.gif but it is not the image of “Nublu Theme’ in the top left corner. Any help on finding this file so I can change out the image?
Thanks in advance
Fantastic theme. I almost changed to a different theme as I was having problems customising the logo. Not sure if anybody will be interested in how to increase the height to accommodate a larger logo but it was more complex than i expected.
I increased the header and logo heights in the css file but this did not resolve my issue with the my logo. It turns out I also had to amend the top.png file and increase the canvas size at the top to allow the extra height to accommodate my logo.
Once you’ve done this, however, you will notice that your twitter feed text is no longer centred in the twitter cloud and appears well above it. Just increase your tweet top height in the css file so that the text is shifted down until you get it aligned correctly in the cloud.
Hope this might help someone who wishes to fit a larger logo into this theme.
Cheers
Paul
Hello!
I have a question.
¿can I remove or modify the credits from the theme?
I have researched if it is legal to modify the credits and I found that it is legal, because WordPress is under a GPL license and the themes are running in wordpress, but I want to know if you as the creator of the theme allow me to modify the credits.
I want to know it, because I must translate the theme to use it and I don’t want to waste the time
Hello there. Very pretty theme. I’ve tried to install it and it seems to work. However when I activate the theme, WP keeps hanging on a blanc screen. Any suggestions to make it work? Thanks.
very nice template and very cool, i agree with u friends
I finally found this one…. Great theme that it matches exactly with the current color combination I’m using… Will be using this for sure!
-Bert
Great work on the theme. I am seriously thinking about trying out this theme for my blog.

Installed this theme, but having hard times configuring and set it.
I can’t see my featured post picture and also post picture? where should i save the picture and what name?
I’m having the same issue. I cannot see the link for featured image. So my slider does not show the image.
Great work on the theme. I am seriously thinking about trying out this theme for my blog.
Nice and very clean theme.Thanks for sharing it.
I really liked the look of this theme, but in the end found it very troublesome…….
1) no support at least showing on the public side
2) in the Linked In Id section, it would not allow me to place my id and keep it there after publishing
3) Kept opening up bloohblog facebook page………
SUGGESTION….those fields should be BLANK ….only allowing personal entries
4) Could not place my blog title where NUBLU header was…
so delete theme and start again…unless the bugs are worked out…I won’t be back
this blog are really nice attractive, unique
I have problem with the theme. i used this theme but the image in posts and thumb image not displayed. There is only noimage.gif appear.. i set image. but its not working.. i am using the latest version of wordpress.. please can anybody help me…

hi…i have fews question
how to edit the link for the partners? tq
Hey, this looks like a cool theme. I’ve searching for a theme for my new blog and this is the one! Many thanks.
Hey buddy nice sharing, these theme seems to be good, but want to ask that there is an option of 125 x 125 but if I want to place 160×600 in sidebar, then will it be possible
I’d like to remove the twitter update tab, and put ads in its place, how would i do this?
how to replace the ads picture on the sidebar?
Great blog bro,looks great, but i have one question: does it support localisation?
Nice WordPress Theme, I really like the colours and the 3 Tab Layout. Twitter integration is a must today and it works great. Thanks for this free template!
Everything works except for the blog title. I can’t seem to get cufon to to work. It just remains as NuBlu. I’ve installed WP-Cufon but still can’t get it to work. Is there something I need to do inparticular?
I should add that I’ve also copied the font the a fonts folder under
wp-content/plugins/fonts
I cannot get the twitter thing to work at the top right of the page in IE. The spinner loader just sits there. Works great in Chrome. Any one else having these issues? If so how did you fix it?
Nice theme, thanks for it.
For anyone getting the script error themes/nublu/js/jquery-1.4.1.js:449 that appears on forefox & now i notice ie9.
I have found possibly where the issue lies. If you open slidshow.php and remove this script from the top:
foreach ($options as $value) {
if (get_settings( $value[‘id’] ) === FALSE) { $$value[‘id’] = $value[‘std’]; } else { $$value[‘id’] = get_settings( $value[‘id’] ); } }
The error stops, so i suspect there is an error with one of the values.
I am now trying to find what the error is. If anyone can help me on this it would appreciate it.
Update: If you drop the code back in:
foreach ($options as $value) {
if (get_settings( $value[‘id’] ) === FALSE) { $$value[‘id’] = $value[‘std’]; } else { $$value[‘id’] = get_settings( $value[‘id’] ); } }
and keep the feature catergory as Uncatergorized the error does not show. It is only whne you add a catergory name that the error shows.
So, has the jquery problem been solved yet? I also created new categories and now my site won’t even show at all in Chrome due to the jquery error.
Please advise! Thanks.
I had the problem that the page hung when loading, and thanks to Danny OCal I think I’ve tracked it down to the Slideshow Category setting. This has to be valid, but has to be the category slug, not the category name. And the original problem was that it defaults to Uncategorized, a category that I don’t have.
I love this website! Thank you very much for providing it.
I do have a few questions, though.
It seems that I have to resize my images to fit properly in the post area. I had an image that was 300px wide and the text was overlapping on top of the picture. I edited the theme so that the image would stay 300px and the text would go on to the next line, but was wondering if there was a way that the theme could automatically resize my image to 155px wide (which was the original setting).
I also wonder if there is specific instructions for this theme. I’ve been using wordpress for a while but I always get into trouble with the more complex themes. I have only basic understanding of code. But this theme is so great that I really want to understand its dynamics so that I can use it and make it look good.
Thanks!
Beautiful website, thanks for making it free 🙂
this theme is beautiful eye candy but slow and the scripts take a long time to execute and is heavy.
I just discovered this beautiful theme and I love it.
You made my day, thanks!
Great theme!! and ready for WordPress 3.0, thank you for sharing it
Very nice WordPress theme.
I have used the theme on my site and yeah the slider does not work,will try to fix it and will inform here.
Any chance that you have fixed it by now?
Nevermind, I got the solution.
Awesome theme! Thanks for sharing..
great theme!
but how do i get the ‘read more’ function to appear after the front page excerpts?
I dont understand how to change the 125 ads with the code. Can you show me how to change it?
very nice one,
unfortunately i tried to use it but it doesnt work properly.
especially the slide section.
All things are messed around.
pity cause i really like it.
Hey nice theme, but I want to ask can I Place 160X600 advertisement in Right Sidebar, is there any problem?
they can write this highly provocative response to Phil Ivey in 24 hours but they can’t answer simple questions about where hundreds of millions of dollars are?

hi, how can i add thumnails to it? and why does it freeze on googlechrome and the spiner on the twitter update freezes? thanks great theme!
for translation into Spanish can be? how I can do? thanks
I like this theme because it is clear .
Hey, is anyone else facing an issue where the twitter loading wheel just keeps spinning to infinity? I loaded the demo site here and I faced the same issue! Is there an update for this .js i am missing or is it something else?
How do I change where it says “Nublu Theme” in the header to my blog’s title?
This is the logo image in the images folder of the theme. Just replace the image with one of your own.
where are you finding the “images folder” in the nublu theme?
I admit, I have not been on this web page in a long time… however it was another joy to see It is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues.
Same here, love it, good job, will probably use it, thanks for sharing!
BOB, this is the best free theme ever. Thank you for sharing, it`s so beautiful.
I will use it on one of my projects.
hello. i have one question:
how to remove “Subscribe to Newsletter”and “Partners” from header and put my own text?
do i need to remove it “manually” direct in code? or?
thank you for your answer 🙂
I have the same question. I’m guessing we’ll have to edit the code to take it out. I’m not sure what to replace it with, though…
I like this theme because it is clear I will try it out thanks for sharing
very nice theme well done……..

The Featured item only shows the title of the image and the story but doesn’t show an actual image. How can I change this, is it a permission issue?
I have the same problem. Any solution? Uploaded images will show in post list but not in the slideshow, maybe the thumb-marker isnt working!?
I’m having the same problem as well. Has there been any updates release regarding to this issue??
I have bookmarked your blog, the articles are way better than other similar blogs.. thanks for a great blog!
nice wordpress themes! i will try on my new blog
Since last couple of months I have visited your site numerous times hoping to see an update and today when I saw this beautiful update, I was mesmerized! This is such a wonderful looking WordPress theme!!
I really can’t imagine giving out such a gorgeous theme for free, thank you a ton!
Just one question: The titles aren’t text, they are images. Is there a way to edit/change them back to text?
Thanks for this free premium wordpress theme, this has to be one of the best free themes of 2011!
Hi,
The theme uses Cufon Font replacement script for the titles. So, just go to header.php and remove the cufon calls.
nice theme
Hey,
This is such a nice theme! I’m planning on using it for my personal resume website.
However, I have a problem. I’m a Frenchman and my website will be written in French. The problem is that the accents (eg. in ‘Catégories’) won’t display (the accented character simply won’t appear, ‘Catégories’ become ‘Catgories’). I suppose the problem come from a PHP function.
Can somebody please help me ?
If I succeed in implementing it on my website, I’ll donate to the author.
Thanks
Superb theme. Professional with Blue color. Love it 🙂
Nice theme. Bookmark it for next blog use.
I solve the problem. I didn’t have a default category, this was the problem. I config a category in the Slideshow Category and the problem was solved. Thanks for this theme, is very beatiful.
Love the Theme but had to install my old template because of the same problem, the slider just crashes the whole blog, Anyway! too bad!! nice template if it didnt have this bug.
I’m planning on using NuBlu for one of my upcoming sites, it looks good. thanks a lot! I’ll also try and donate something.
looks great, but i have one question: does it support localisation?
I really like this template and have set it up locally and it’s looking great. The place I need to host it is set up as a multi-site wordpress install. So the thumbs/timthumb page isn’t working. I’ve seen several solutions for getting timthumb to work with a multisite install, but I’m not sure how to edit the theme since it searches for the images in the posts.
Any ideas?
thanks very much for this great post! i had a lot of interesting thoughts while reading this which i might just put into action right away. thanks
I guess I am not the only one having all the enjoyment here keep up the good work
Really, this is one of best theme, thank you for the information.
