Hello, I was hoping you'd be able to help me customize this layout further since the layout maker wasn't able to help. Once it's done, the layout will be changed significantly. I'm having trouble figuring some things out.
- There's a blank space to the right of the entries and I can't find out what's causing it. I changed the body background color so that it can be seen better.
- I originally thought I would need to change the width of the entries, and the maker suggested changing the following piece of code:
#content {
margin: 0 0;
position: relative;
width: 80%;
float: right;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
from 80% to 100%, but that pushes the entries to the right and sidebar down. Entries are also narrower on the comment pages and I would like to at least reduce the size of the comments. I'm viewing this on my laptop and 1280x768 resolution, but would like the layout to work on a 1024x768 and 1289x1024 resolutions as well.
- The original css has even and odd entry and comment wrapper etc; are these necessary or redundant??
- I'd like to be able to style the multilevel tags which are not styled in the css, but was unable to find the proper ids/classes; it might be I just don't know where to search.
- Userpics don't look quite as intended in the original, which doesn't have Previous/Next links; since I do, they overlap and I had to lower them down. They really bother me, especially in the comments! I'd much rather have them inside the upper right corner.
- And I'd like to remove the underline for entry management links, as well as tags (both in entries and sidebar, but have a dotted underline for links in actual entries.

And you're probably thinking, Demanding, isn't she?

Date: 2010-06-06 04:40 pm (UTC)Okay, I think this should catch it:
var string position = ($*entry_metadata_position == "top") ? " top-metadata" : " bottom-metadata";
Then look for somewhere where it says "metadata$position" and change that to just "metadata".

You guys aren't going anywhere, right?
