This theme was created for a contest run by Smashing Magazine who asked for a “simple, beautiful and user-friendly” template. It definetly maages to do that and its the same template that this blog uses.
Dilectio is the latin word for “love, solicitude, esteem”. The creator of the template states that it’s a rather atmospheric theme and to achieve this effect he started from scratch to make this template give a feeling, the rounded shape that is repeating randomly, creates a beautiful and original rhythm.
I really appreciate this template and it is by far one of the most beautiful templates I have seen for blogger. Although the blogger version seems to have a bug where the Author name does not appear.
The solution to the author problem is rather simple, go to the edit html settings of this template, expand widgets and search for the code highlighted below.
Once you find the code below change the post.Author to post.author and save the template. This should get this bug fixed, if you have a problem with the date not appearing then take a look at this post. I do hope you enjoyed this free blogger template, lots more coming soon.Download the Dilectio Blogger Template
it says:
We were unable to save your template
Please correct the error below, and submit your template again.
Your template is invalid because the tag 'b:section' appears inside of the tag 'head'.
hello Lekim,
Blogger has recently made some major update in their server settings.
This does not allow < div > tags in the < head > section of the template.
You will have to move the < div > in the body or perhaps above the head.
Blogger has not yet announced officially what the situation is.
So I hope you can wait for a while before you do so.

Clyde

Remove the < div > from the < head > section that should solve the problem

What makes you think you can use the Dilectio theme without linking back to DesignDisease?
Ahmed,
Its strange that you say that I have not linked back. When you post a comment on a page that has two links to DesignDisease.

Now what to do ???
hey Annonymous -
Its really quite simple, all you need to do is go to Edit Html and move the contents of the 'b:section' into the body part of your template. That's it!
