So, for no reason that I can divine, the AO3 feeds (and only the AO3 feeds) look wonky on my reading page, like so:
( mucked up links )

The links overlap each other and while it's possible to read them when there aren't a lot of tags, it does get a bit irritating. I figured I'd just slap in a tiny little fix in the Custom CSS to make the spacing better, but I poked around and couldn't get anything to work.

This is what I thought it should look like, but it didn't seem to do anything:
.page-read .entry-wrapper.poster-ao3_batman_allmedia_feed .entry-content {line-height: 2em; ]

Help, pretty please?

Hi, I've finally started messing around a bit with customizing my journal style, and I was wondering how I can remove the footer. I never use the link to Top of Page and it takes up a lot of space. I looked around this community but didn't see an answer, any help would be appreciated!

ETA: Solved. Thanks,

branchandroot!

I have received help here before to customize my page (thank you!!) but i have one more request. at the very bottom of my page there's a dark bar (footer?) that has a link to 'top of page', try as i might when going through my customize options, i cannot find where that is....i would LIKE it to be a link for the next 20 entries---navigation....there's no bottom navigation at all....

i have seen posts here requesting navigation at the bottom, but the custom CSS includes removing it from the top...i don't have it on the top, and i have custom CSS on the top of my page and i don't want to mess that up.....

i obviously have a severe case of dumbz here, but i'd rather ask before messing with the custom CSS someone graciously made for me!

ETA: SOLVED!!! :-)

myillusions

So I tried to do the color code change on the color for the nav. part of myillusions. I wanna get rid of that in the nav. part. Also how would I center the Navigation links. Is it also possible to center the comment links?
Thank you in advance

I hope this is the right place to ask about this--

I was wondering if there is a way to edit the "xpost" section to fit in line with the tags and mood/music/etc. on a layer that I'm using an LJ layout on? That, or stop it from displaying at all, if I have to.

dancing_serpent for ColorSide

Problem 1 : Header - I want to get rid of the journal title, subtitle and the "Recent" (or any nav title) SOLVED!
Problem 2 : Links at the bottom of entries (AKA edit entry, adit tags,...) - I want them to me white :-) SOLVED!
Problem 3 : Navi links - I want to move them under the header and centered. SOLVED!
Problem 4 : Subject of entries - is it possible to move them a few px to the right from the icon? And maybe making the font a bit bigger and in bold? SOLVED!
Problem 5 : I want to get rid of the "Previous 20/Next 20" links/bar at the top of the journal and only leaving the ones at the bottom. SOLVED!
Problem 6 : I would like to move everything (icon, subect, date, TEXT,...) a few px on BOTH sides from the border in the entries AND the module/sidebar. SOLVED!
Problem 7 : I would like to move the entries so when clicking on the "Reading/Friends" page (or any other for that matter) they would be at the same height as on the "Recent" page (AKA same distance from the header everywhere). SOLVED!

I'm totally new here and have no clue how to write CSS so if you managed to help me with these with some CSS coding or even just pointing me in the right direction and telling me what's possible and what not I would be super thankful and might possibly owe you my firstborn :-D
The DW confuses me and takes away my sleep :-( Please help! O.o

Hi. I'm modifying a transmorgified theme from here:

Titanic Layout

for a comm I am creating. I'd like to add a separate box/module directly under the nav strip (and above the entries) for the Links List. I can't seem to find the CSS snippet for the Links List, though?

Sorry, I know its a stupid question, but I'm another 88er getting used to DW coding and I can't find it in any of the CSS references for DW :(

valiha

Hi all, I'm trying to further customize a Transmogrified layout Open Skies made by

sailorptah. She's set the layout to fixed width, and I'd like to make it fluid so that it adapts both to my 22" widescreen monitor, and my 10" netbook.

I want to remove the background image so that I don't have to rely on it to separate main content from the sidebar. I thought that shouldn't be difficult with background color and borders, but I'm having trouble with the #wrap, which looks like a narrow strip behind #content and .module-section-two. I also want the footer to blend in. How do I achieve the look of the preview without images, and remove the space between #wrap and .module-section-one?

ETA there's also something strange going on here:

I'm trying to replace the funky circles in question with a different picture, preferably superimposed over the title banner the way that the circles are normally. The current testbed is the otherwise-blank

fursona community, which is being styled to emulate the best parts of

aliaspseudonym's Tumblr. I'm just running into two problems:

One, due to the complex way that the circles are coded into the layer (as referenced in this comment on this entry, I'm not even sure how to extract and replace them completely, at least not using CSS. This comment explains how to do a custom header image, and that seems to work, but we're not going for that style of header.

Two, even replacing the background-image URL in that CSS style doesn't actually replace the background image. Does it need to be a paid account for me to do that? I'm confused.

Any help would be appreciated, even if it involves going into S2 (I've done a little of that before).

awakened

1) Is there a way I can remove the links from the date on Transmogrified?

2) I would also like to know how to remove "(no subject)" from entries and comments that do not have a subject by editing layers. (I know there is a way to do it through CSS, but I don't like the slight space it leaves behind.)

Hello,

I recently switched to Paletteable. I enabled custom reading page colours, but I'd like the custom colours to form a slightly thicker border around the userpic, particularly the "background" colour. (It's hard for me to distinguish some of my colours when the lines are this thin, particularly since I always use black as the "foreground" colour for individual users.)

I've tried to figure out on my own what I should do, but I don't even know where to start.

Thanks in advance!

I'm styling the pink Skittlish Dreams some more, and I decided I wanted to move the NSFW and friends-locked tags to the left of the date and time below each entry's title, as opposed to taking up a whole line between them. (You can see an example on this post, which is mildly NSFW and hence has the icon.)

Applying float: left; to .restrictions and .access-filter > img put it on the same line, but it isn't aligned with the date and time part. And I've been trying to use padding to get it to look right, but a) I feel like there should be a more elegant way to make it inline, and b) the padding won't apply no matter what. Not even adding !important does the trick.

What am I missing here, and is the better solution to just create a custom S2 layer and rearrange the placement of elements? If so, how would I go about that (and I get the feeling I'd need to do more CSS styling anyways)?

Okay, so I've looked through the wiki and through the style comms I've found, and I haven't managed to find a nice clear set of guidelines for this. I'm interested in getting started on designing some new styles for submission as official ones, but before I get too deep into CSS, I want to make sure the layout conforms to the basic standards for official styles. So far I've discovered that 1) it has to have 1em as the base font size and 2) must be fluid-width. Are there any others? I'm probably mostly going to be working off of Tabula Rasa and it's descendants, if it matters.

I'm using Skittlish Dreams, and I had the idea that I could get rid of the "top" part of a sidebar widget (the header and background) to put Custom Text right below my Profile, and make it look like the text is part of the profile. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to make that part disappear for just the Custom Text module.

.module-section-two .module {
     background: none;
}

makes it vanish for all of them, and I haven't been able to make it any more specific. Can anyone help? I tried putting .module-tags_list in there too and it didn't work.

Edit: Never mind, the following code works (replace module-calendar with any other module):

div.module-calendar { background:none !important; }

It's the !important that overwrites the rule handed down from higher up. Many thanks to

niya for her assistance.

I really, really like the layout I have now, with one tiny little problem; I would really like to fix my background image so it didn't scroll and repeat, because, frankly, it sucks at tiling height-wise.

I found this: http://style-system.dreamwidth.org/22713.html, which unfortunately removes my header, but I can't find anything else.

Is it even possible? Or do I need to get creative and smush both background and header together into one massive picture and then make that one fixed?

Hi,

I'm trying to get a header onto Brittle over at

slashing_jane. I tried it using the #canvas tag(?) but when it was centered it was out of alignment with the body and when I put it to the left I couldn't work out how to move it in until it lined up. Also I want a background image for the page but I'm not sure how to do both.

I know nothing about CSS so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Sayra.

(Ironic, I know, given the previous post!!)

I'm using Practicality for my personal journal, and have inserted a header banner using this code:

#canvas {
background-image: url(http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c139/Sharpiefan/Sharpebanner1.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
padding-top: 250px;
}

I want to introduce a small margin (of about 10px) at the top and bottom of my banner, to give a bit of space between the banner and the nav bar, at the top, and the header box (or whatever it's called) underneath.

How can I do this? Or can't I?

Trying to increase the padding number to 270 just moves the header box down, without shifting the banner itself down as well.

I'm using Underworld for Crossroads, and the header is cooking my noodle. I would love to reduce the height of the header to... pretty much what's needed for the navigational elements, now I've figured out how to insert an image as title. I've checked the page source, but... either it's been way too long since I worked with CSS last, or the header elements are on an external style-sheet somewhere.

Can I do this at all, or do I need to make my very own style from scratch?

Also... I think I might like to move the navigation module to the left down just a smidgen. Anybody got pointers to that effect?

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to ask.

I have a bunch of feed accounts on my friend page ... but they don't show any icons, it shouldn't be annoying, but it is for me. I would like to know if there's an override bit of code permitting to get a default icon showing up, or if there's a possibility on your end, to set up a default icon for the feed accounts? that would show up on the reading page.

Thanks in advance.

Sam.

Help!!

I've just set up a mirror community for one on LJ, and I want to move the nav links (recent entries/member posts/archive/profile) to the centre, under the header box.

Is there any way of doing that? And if so, could someone talk me through it - I'm not that confident with coding-type stuff.
