Hello!

I realised that with DW layouts, the journal title does not appear as the page title. I was wondering if there is a way to make the journal title the title of the page as well?

Also, I tried adding a favicon to a community that is using Tabula Rasa and it doesn't work? It seems to be working for my other comm that is using an imported LJ style (Flexible Squares)... Is there a way around this?

Thank you!! :)

Can I see your code for the favicon for the community using Tabula Rasa?

[infini]

layerinfo "type" = "theme"; layerinfo "name" = "favicon"; function Page::print_custom_head() { """ <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://edelstine.webs.com/Morpho-Portis-Male-icon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> <link rel="icon" type="image/ico" href="http://edelstine.webs.com/Morpho-Portis-Male-icon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> """; }

Hmm, I tested out the code and it seems to be working fine on my end. What browser do you use?

[ex_awakened208]

I think it still ought to work though. Did you create a style and select this as your theme layer for that style?

[infini]

It's weird... I apply it as my theme layer, but then my layout is all gone - and vice versa. Hmm.

[ex_awakened208]

Are you using one of the layouts by Dreamwidth?

[infini]

Yes! Tabula Rasa

[ex_awakened208]

I meant like, one of the Dreamwidth specific themes.

For example, two of the Dreamwidth themes for Tabula Rasa are "Muted" and "Dazzle".

[infini]

Ohhh yes, I am using Plain.

I customised it using CSS too

[ex_awakened208]

Are you using both Plain's stylesheet and the custom CSS together?

[infini]

Ummm, I think so? I should be.

Ahh I'm sorry, I am not sure about this... I am not very good at coding. :(

[ex_awakened208]

It's okay! I'm just trying to figure what all is going on so I can help you out.

And when you apply the favicon theme layer, does it get rid of all your CSS?

[infini]

yep the changes made with the css is gone when i apply the favicon theme

[ex_awakened208]

It sounds like you haven't created a custom style. You can do that at the "Your Styles" area. When you decide on a name and hit "create", you'll be taken to a new page to edit the style you just created. Set the "Layout Layer" to "Tabula Rasa". Set "Theme" to your custom theme layer (the one you named "favicon"). Set "Wizard" to "Auto-generated Customizations". And then save. You'll be taken to the "Your Styles" area again and you'll see the style you just made. Hit the use button next to it and it should all work.

Ahhh oh my gosh, I feel so silly. This made a lot of sense hahaha! Thank you so much!! ♥

Also, you wouldn't happen to know how to add the journal title to the page title, would you? :)

[ex_awakened208]

Good! I was so worried that you'd already done all that and I wasn't being helpful. I'm glad it worked!

There is a way to set the page title as something. You can do that in the favicon layer by replacing it with this and changing the "CUSTOM TITLE TEXT HERE" to whatever you want.

layerinfo "type" = "theme"; layerinfo "name" = "favicon"; function Page::print_custom_head() { """ <title>CUSTOM TITLE TEXT HERE</title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://edelstine.webs.com/Morpho-Portis-Male-icon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> <link rel="icon" type="image/ico" href="http://edelstine.webs.com/Morpho-Portis-Male-icon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> """; }

I don't know how do it the Livejournal way where the journal's title is automatically the page title. And the above code will keep that text the same regardless what page you're going to on the journal. So it would stay the same when you're on the reading page too.

[infini]

Nooo you've been super helpful and patient!!!

That code works wonders! Thank you!! ♥♥♥

[ex_awakened208]

Glad I was able to help! ♥

[infini]

Hello, sorry to bother you but may I know what code you're using for your favicon? I am not sure why, but my code suddenly stopped working.

Thank you! :)

[ex_awakened208]

Not a bother! :)

Hmm, your favicon is still showing up when I go to it. Did you get it working again?

My code:
function Page::print_custom_head(){""" <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://shoenamedroxas.webs.com/redumbrella.ico" /> """;}
