New at DW and CSS and needing help *puppy eyes*

[denig37]

Layout: Halloween
by 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

I have a little time before I go to bed to help with a few of these. Add the following to your CSS page:

Problem 1:
#title,#subtitle,#pagetitle {display: none;}

Problem 2:
ul.entry-management-links a {color: #FFFFFF;}

Problem 4:
h3.entry-title {font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.2em; margin-left: 10px;}

Problem 5:
.topnav {display:none}
Problem 5: Part 2 - I forgot that taking out the entire top navigation section would also remove your YEAR DATES at the top of the page in your CALENDAR view, so here's another option that shouldn't do that. It doesn't remove the entire space, but that *could* be accomplished with margins.
.topnav li.page-back {display:none}

Problem 6:
.entry,.module {padding:10px;}

If any of these don't work for you, let me know and I'll take a better look tomorrow.

OMG YES!!! *squishes you*
They work perfectly! :-D THANK YOU!

Is it possible to make the entry management links white permanently (so they wouldn't change color when they were visited?


Now I only need to move the icon in entries a few px to the right, add main nav links under the header and figure out how to get rid of the white points next to tags, the profile info box and page summary.

Is it possible to make the entry management links white permanently (so they wouldn't change color when they were visited?

Yep!

ul.entry-management-links a:visited {
color: #fff;
}

add main nav links under the header and figure out how to get rid of the white points next to tags, the profile info box and page summary.

Would you try this?

.module-content ul {
list-style: none;
}

.module-navlinks {
left: 4%;
margin-left: 1.8%;
margin-right: 2.4%;
position: absolute;
right: 4%;
text-align: center;
top: 298px;
}

.module-navlinks ul {
display: inline;
width: 100%;
}

.module-navlinks li {
display: inline;
}

#header {
padding: 1.5em;
}

Oh, that's nifty :-D Can we make those permanently white too?

The "Reply" & "Link" won't get white *pouts*


If I was your boss you would defintely get a raise :-D You're really good at this :-D

[ninetydegrees]

Can we make those permanently white too?

Sure!

ul.entry-interaction-links a:visited {
color: #FFFFFF;
}

If I was your boss you would definitely get a raise :-D You're really good at this :-D

XD Thank you! I'm a civil servant so I get a raise when I'm supposed to and that's it (which is better than what some people have so I'm not complaining ). And that's more than what you wanted to know... *bg*

[denig37]

Works!
How do we color the main nav links?
And is it possible in some way to move the sidebar/module so it's in the same distance from the header as the entries? (so the blue lines are at the same level with each other)

That's true....but I can wish it for you at least :-D

[ninetydegrees]

How do we color the main nav links?

#secondary .module-navlinks a {
color: #fff;
}

And if you need it:

#secondary .module-navlinks a:visited {
color: #fff;
}

#secondary .module-navlinks a:hover {
color: #fff;
}

And is it possible in some way to move the sidebar/module so it's in the same distance from the header as the entries?

#secondary .inner:first-child {
padding-top: 0 !important;
}

#secondary .module:first-child {
margin-top: 0 !important;
}

THANK YOU!!! :-D

You're made of win!

I'm definitely going to friend you :-D

Wish I could do something for you too...Do you need maybe some icons? A banner for some fic or something like that?
Any fandom, I can google it if I'm not familiar with it :-D

[ninetydegrees]

You're welcome !

No, I'm good but thank you very much for the offer. I really appreciate it. :)

[denig37]

Offer is without deadlines, just let me know if you ever change your mind :-D

One of my new works will be Leverage ReverseBang ;-) Just waiting for my writers and for the posting date :-D
