Reply page in Core 1 layout

[rozarka]

I've copied my LJ style to DW using a Core 1 layout layer (Flexible Squares) and a custom css stylesheet (by circa77 on LJ, modified by me) in the customization wizard. It works fine on DW with one exception that I can see: the entry text isn't right on the reply page (?mode=reply). It does work in the entry view (the one you get to by following a cut or a direct link) and even the 'read comments' view, and it's not a problem on LJ, so the issue seems to be DW-specific. It seems to affect only the entry and date/subject text, too — the entry background colour and all other parts of the page are fine.

I've tried to tweak it using .lj-view-reply .entry or .entry_text, which hasn't made a difference in any variation I've tried. If anyone has any idea of how to fix this, I'd be most grateful to know. :)

Yeah, try this:

.datesubject {padding: 0; margin-right:20px; margin-left:20px; background:transparent;}
.date, .replytoposter {color:#bbb; border-bottom:1px dashed #ccc; padding-top: 2px; padding-bottom: 2px; font-size:9px; text-transform:uppercase;margin-top: -20px;}
.subject,.replytosubject {display:block; position: static; color:#db5c83; padding: 6px 0px; font-family:verdana, sans-serif; font-size:18px; line-height:15px; letter-spacing: 2px; font-weight:normal;}
.subject a, .subject a:link, .subject a:visited {color:#db5c83; font-weight:normal;}
.subject a:hover {color:#db5c83; background:transparent;}

.entry {border:0; background:transparent; margin:0 10px; font-size: 13px; font-family:verdana, sans-serif; color:#000;}

It's not absolutely perfect but it's pretty close. Any more questions please feel free to ask.

It's not, btw, a "formatting problem" per se...it's that the view-reply or reply-mode pages (same thing) use different markup than view-recent in your particular style. On top of that, the view-reply/reply mode pages don't have body class markup to allow you to target their different and/or missing classes directly. This is quite a common issue with LJ and DW styles. :)

Hey, that's close enough to perfect that I'm more than happy. :D

Thank you so much, I truly appreciate all your help! :)
