Moving the nav links in Basic Boxes

[sharpiefan]

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.

Assuming your community is anything_aos, would you try adding this to the 'Use embedded CSS ' box at http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=customcss (make sure you select your community in the Switch to menu at the top first):

.module-navlinks {
left: 1%;
position: absolute;
right: 1%;
text-align: center;
top: 180px;
}

.module-navlinks ul {
display: inline;
}

#header {
margin-bottom: 70px;
position: relative;
}

It worked well for me but...

I'm not going to ask how you knew that... :D

That's perfect! Thank you!

You're most welcome!

(I'll tell you anyway: I just looked at the list of communities you admin on your profile then found the one using Basic Boxes; it mattered in this case because it's got a header so it changed the value for the top positioning; I would have used my own journal otherwise :)

(That's pretty much what I thought - I'd've done the same! I don't like all my journals, comms etc using the same layout, not when there are so many fantastic options to choose from! :D)

Good thing I put the header up before asking... On the other hand, it looked OK where it was before I put the header up...

So, so happy to hear this! My little style dev's heart thanks you.

Oh get it now! That's because my journal doesn't have a subtitle so the #header is much smaller for me. I always forget about that.
