Flynn's Paws: My Thoughts, My Gripes

Tag: custom css

  • 20090808-Editing Blog

    I’ve been editing my paid CSS Stylesheet upgrade to the current (but free) WordPress.com theme:

    Unsleepable by Ben Gray

    A simple two-column theme that appeals to the monochrome amongst us

    Tags: two-columns, fixed-width, right-sidebar, white, light, widgets, sticky-post, rtl-language-support

    For hovering over links with pink background and white font:

    `text-decoration:underline!important;
    background:#0D78B6;
    color:#fff!important;`

    Here are key areas for making the `width `work well. You may need to adjust the `.primary` (left stuff) and the` ul.secondary` (right stuff) to suit your preference:

    `#page {
    width:760px;
    }`

    `#header{
    width:760px;
    }`

    `.primary {
    width:580px;
    }`

    `ul.secondary {
    width:165px;
    }`

    Expect to press the `Preview` and `Save Stylesheet` buttons frequently! Good luck!

  • 20090730-Four Colors

    Discovered listed (li), unlisted (ul), and ordered list (ol) can have colors! Behold red, blue, green and purple on these `bullet` details on pages, posts and sidebars, too!

  • 20090722-Fixed Meta

    To make the appearance of the `#noticias small` code to `float right` here:

    • set margin-top to -23px,
    • set padding-right to 5px and
    • set padding to 5px for the `noticias h3` code (for it to work via Internet Explorer browser).

  • 20090721-Smaller Noticias

    To hide all the `meta` instead of the time/date stamp to the Theme: Pool by Borja Fernandez: locate the `#noticias small` code in your paid CSS stylesheet and set:

    • border to 1px solid #000;
    • display to block;
    • float to none;
    • height to 15px;
    • overflow to auto and
    • width to 150px.

  • 20090721-Removed Meta

    Removed time/date stamp, categories, tags, leave a comment, edit post information from view by editing CSS of `#noticias small` to `display: block`. At least the yyyymmdd format appears in front of the post entry titles as reference.

  • 20090717-Editing Weblog

    Added 1px solid #000 borders to the ‘body’, content’, ‘sidebar’ and ‘entrada’. Set ‘white’ background to ‘content’ for frame appearance. Entered my ‘Epitaph’ into the post title. Matched h2 codes for both ‘sticky’ and ‘noticias’. Changed header color to blue of blog title, to match blue skies of background image and blue background hovers.

  • 20090717-Background Color

    Hah! I switched the dusky blue color (formerly the background color to the body) with the muted purple color (formerly for the wp-caption text and flickr_badge_wrapper).

  • 20090710-Editing Weblog

    For ease of viewing the sidebar header: aligned to right and set to lowercase. Added `Link Category`: travel. Nothing like annoying readers w/ constant changes.

  • 20090710-Editing Weblog

    Played with paid CSS upgrade. Edited .sidebar h3 w/ lowercase to match blogroll links. To stretch border at the bottom of H4 sidebar title, set display to block.

  • 20090707-Auto Height

    Tweaked #globalnav and .innerheader w/ auto height. Gaps on above header and below blog description. Works nicely when using `View > Zoom` of internet browser..

  • 20090407-Auto Scroll

    Tweaked .entry-content w/ auto overflow, 400px max-height, 60px min-height. Works nicely for ‘Pages’ but not for Static `Posts page` showing more than one page.

  • 20090706-Auto Height

    Read about overflow: and instead of `scroll` used `auto` w/ height of 40px for the .entry-meta. Set left and right margins of posts, pages and contents to 90px.
