Is the color scheme shown in the demo the only color?

Correct, Newsworthy has one default color scheme which is the one in the demo. Changes to the colors in this theme requires the Custom Design upgrade noted above.

I ask because I currently use "modern news" and I dont remember it saying there were other colors, but there were. Before I switch themes (and possibly lose my layout) I'm curious. I'm fond of orange.

I like the look of the Newsworthy theme, and would like to use it. However, the date format on the posts shows mm/dd/yy, when I would like it to show DD/MM/YY. The theme does not appear to be affected by the date format I have set up in Settings.

Does anyone know whether the date format can be changed on this theme?

It was a work around to get the time into datelines for my posts. Except that it fails because it causes the time to be duplicated in the comments.

I'm wondering if there is a way with CSS to add the time to the default dateline for posts. I don't know enough CSS to figure it out for myself.

The Date Format should represent items such as the day - month - year while the Time Format should contain the time section.

Please correct me if I am wrong but it sounds like you are using both values in the Date Format. In The Morning After both the date and time format values are "glued" together to create the datetime that prints with each comment. Unfortunately there is no way to hide one independent of the other.

Yes, under Settings > General I can set a custom dateline -- F j, Y, g:i a T -- and get what I want: April 6, 2012, 2:57 pm MDT. But doing so inevitably causes the dateline in the accompanying comments to repeat the time: April 6, 2012, 2:57 pm MDT 2:57 pm MDT, since comment datelines already include the time by default. I have the CSS upgrade. Is there a way to use CSS to add the time to the post datelines only? I'm using The Morning After theme.

Create a new post in the "themes" forum and tell staff about the date not changing. I'm pretty sure they will fix that so that the date format put in at settings > general will control. It really should be that way.

The theme team do monitor the "themes" forum, but there is no telling when they will be around or when they will fix this.

.hentry .entry-meta .date a {
color: #000000;
}

And then this if you wish to change the hover color of the date only.

.hentry .entry-meta .date a:hover {
color: #AF1E3F;
}

Edit the colors as desired.

Neither of the above are in the original CSS (the colors are inherited from "a" and "a:hover") so I've included additional classes to specifically target the date.

Some of them are set in the theme PHP script files. If that is the case, then there isn't anyway to change the format.

Before we can address the color issue, we need a link to the site. CSS is theme specific so we have to see your site.

I've had good luck with everything except for the date corresponding to each post. I seem unable to change 1) the color nor 2) the date format.

.hentry .entry-meta .date {<br /> color:#999999;<br /> font-family:Oswald, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;<br /> font-size:18px;<br /> font-weight:normal;<br /> line-height:24px;<br /> }

In the Settings>General menu, I've set the format to the desired "01.30.12" format (m.d.y) but the page still displays the default "Jan 30, 2012."

Any thoughts? Any help would be much appreciated!

You set "5.21.2011" so every post had that date.

Custom date formats can't contain a specific date. You need to use format characters that will apply to all dates. In this case, you would want to set your custom date format as:

d.m.y

I went ahead and changed the format and it corrected the issue. You can learn more about custom date formats at http://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time and more about your General Settings at http://support.wordpress.com/settings/general-settings/.

My posting date always says "5.21.2011" no matter what I do to try and change it. I have checked each post and they are all labeled with the correct post date (including the Publish section of the edit page on each post) but it still shows up as that same date on my blog page.

I'm sure that this is a mundane problem, but I have tried all that you guys have said to do and it hasn't fixed it...Would appreciate a little help!

Thank you!

Do note that there are a few themes here that do not grab the date format from the wordpress core, but have it coded into the PHP script files, which we cannot change.
