This post added with "If you want to use embed codes" fields: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/demo/stargate/knight-day.html
If you want to have a post like this one: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/demo/stargate/frozen.html, do not write anything in "File Urls" or "If you want to use embed codes" parts. Add the embed codes in Content part.
Logo
There is a logo folder in theme folder. You can find a logo.psd in this folder.
Edit it by Photoshop and save it as logo.png. Then replace the logo.png with this new logo.png
Of course, you can use your own logo.png, too.
Thumbnails(posters)
If your posters do not appear on homepage, make the chmod permission of cache folder in theme folder 775 or 777. Some servers use 775, some 777.
Licence
Do not delete or edit the links in footer. Theme is free because of that links.

I upload your file to my server: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/temasdewordpress/stargate-pelicula/
Gracias @edxad.
this is a superb theme. thx for the share. If i am right, i saw this a month back for some cost! but now u made it free… Can i knw the reason?
thanks. yes, it was a paid theme. i found a sponsor and now it’s free. free version includes some links in footer and as i told in Licence part, theme users can not delete these links.
I get no cover and images displayed in the slider .. help would be nice
first, select your featured category in theme options panel. then read the “How to Add Movie” part in this post.
I made everything what is writen up but have same problem I get no cover and images displayed in the slider and can’t put poster images
pictures must be on your server(do not use third party websites). pictures must be in jpg format. write http:// while you are adding the picture url. and make the chmod permissions of cache folder 775 or 777(some servers need 775, some need 777).
if you can not solve the problem, activate the theme and write here again.
Images from other image host not work, i`m must select images from my libery.
im testet imagehaks and 3 other image host…but extern images not working
images in third part websites will not work. images must be on your server.
alright so I spent the last 15 minutes looking for the same theme you’re using and cannot find it. Didn’t want to have to ask but really would like to use it for my blog, could you let me know? I’ll check back here soon for any replies. Thanks
i could not understand what you mean but if you want to use it “stargate movie theme”, download and use it.

Firebug say: g is undefined

do not delete the links in footer on any of my theme. then ask your questions.
I had the same problem here. images can not appear. I’ve tried to change the cache folder to 777 or 775, the image can log into the cache folder, but still the same.
this my web http://pino.uphero.com. You can see for yourself. if you can help please email me at *** @ gmail.com.
I will give user and pass if needed.
I really need this theme … thanks.!
i am not very sure but it can because of subdomain. please upload an image to main domain like uphero.com/images/image.jpg and add this image as thumbnail to one your posts. let’s see what will happen.
i use free domain.
i will try,, n will be back soon..!!
i cant,2 days! 2 days i tried to do all! i cant see the images,look, all the permissions are right,i did everything correct! but i cant see the thumbnail,,,
look
http://cinema-center.co.il/?p=23
this is the error when trying to get the image address from the post
http://cinema-center.co.il/wp-content/themes/stargate/timthumb.php?src=http://cinema-center.co.il/wp-content/themes/stargate/cache/sss.jpg&w=120&zc=1&q=176
pleasee,help mee
it can be because of your server settings. i am not sure about it sorry.
i think you found the solution yourself. do these:
- open index.php archive.php, search.php, single.php, sidebar.php and find:
< ***?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/timthumb.php?src=
and
&w=120&zc=1&q=176
then delete them. this code is for timthumb script. if you delete that codes, your theme will not create thumbnails but will use your images with the original sizes.
yeah.. great..!
i also change featured.php.
yea i already did that! but thanks
