 Okay I've been working on Transmogrified as other themes I had some major frustrations with. I think I've figure most things out but suddenly I realized there is a horizontal scrollbar when there shouldn't be.


You can see it at [personal profile] sireesanwar . I can not figure out why my journal is like 150% wide. Anyone see what I'm not?

EDIT: I and did a trial-and-error deleting spree of code sections lol. I was so convinced it was something in the footer, but it turns out the culprit was padding in the control strip.


I just started using this layout from [community profile] plainstyles on my community [community profile] sigaw.

On my desktop, I can see a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the page, despite not having any posts in the community yet.

Does anyone know what part of the CSS I need to tweak to get rid of it?

This is extremely obscure, but in case it's been bugging anyone else who uses their reading page to read RSS feeds of WordPress blogs and occasionally suddenly has a page that's 10 million miles wide:

Add this to the CSS definitions section of your custom style.

.wp-caption {
max-width: 600px !important;
}


Problem solved.

Hi all!

I just joined DW a few days ago, and I've managed to get my layout basically to how I want it to look. There are a few things I need help with, though:
  • I'd like to add a tiny one-pixel-wide border around my header, entries, modules, and entry comments, but am not sure what code to use.
  • I'd also like to put the titles of my entries and the headers of my modules in lower-case letters. I tried looking through the customization options, but there doesn't seem to be one for capitalization. :\
  • And lastly! I've noticed that the width of my header and layout are dynamic and change as I shrink the browser window. Is there any way to change both so that they are static?
I'd appreciate any help that anyone could offer me. :)

I'm working on two Tabula Rasa layouts -- one fixed, one fluid, with matching graphics -- and starting to hit the limit of what my understanding of CSS can handle. Help?

Here's the current state of the fixed-width layout, currently enabled at [community profile] punditfic:




And here's the fluid version, visible in action at [community profile] andthatstheword:




Issues in the fixed-width layout:

  • When the page isn't tall enough, module-content and module-powered show up in the middle of the sidebar. Avoided!

  • In the main entry view, how can I get usernames to display reliably under the userpic? The best I got (through messing with margins) was "it'll appear there, but entry text will overlap it." (Also a problem in the fluid version.) Solved in both!

  • New issue...when #primary is shorter than #secondary, the page only scrolls down as far as #primary.



  • Things in the fluid layout that I can't get to match the fixed-width layout:

  • On the calendar-by-month view, the entry information isn't indented with respect to the date. Prettied up!

  • Similarly, the bulleted list on the tags page isn't indented. Solved!

  • Information in the entries on the main page is all squished together (title overlapping with date/time, tags overlapping with entry tools). Solved!

  • Everything to do with comment display just isn't happening. The tools won't display inline, there's no space around comment-content, the header has no background... Solved!



  • Other issues with the fluid layout:

  • Can I make the #primary and #secondary divs extend to the bottom of the page (to extend the background) without covering the header?

  • Looks like I need to do something with module-content and module-powered here too. When the sidebar is on the left, they try to squeeze into the gap between #secondary and #primary. This isn't a problem when the sidebar is on the right (or at least, it hasn't been at my resolution). Solved!


  • Anyone who can point me in the right direction on any of these points would be greatly appreciated!

    Has anyone else had problems with Tabula Rasa recently?

    I logged on on Monday and the main content width had suddenly got wider. I wouldn't mind, but it's as wide as my screen and I'm using a three-column layout, so now I can't see the columns and the reading area at the same time.

    I'm not very good at explaining these things, so here's a link to a screenshot that might help.

    I haven't changed anything since I first made it, so I've no idea what to do to fix it. Please help!



    [Edit] Fixed, but I'd still like to know if anyone else has encountered anything like this, or if anyone has any ideas as to why it happened.
