Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

This one in your default.css is causing that

.widgetcontainer li a:hover    { border-bottom: 10px dotted #635957; }

It's a bit big dot wink

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

Hi,

I am using this theme on my site www.indiawilds.com/diary. Like the rest of the site i have to add a menu bar in the header of the page. I am able to add the menu bar, but i am not able to change the colour of the background. Presently it is whitish and the table structure of the menu is seen. I tried lot of settings and played around the default.css and also in the header.php. But still it is not accepting the colour.

It would be really helpful, if you could let me know what can be done.

Thanks.

If I have a picture that does not fully meet the dimensions for the slide show, they show my image and black background. How do I change the background color of the slide show?

Extatix - the guide is great for changing colors, but could you explain how you can change certain parts fonts?

For example what do I need to insert to specify that the widget title is say Lucida Grande and the Feature stories title in Ariel (just for example)

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

.widgettitle { font: 12px Lucida Grande ; }
.posts-default .entry-title    { font: 14px Arial; }

presumably that all goes before the color coding thats present in the css?

Thanks again.

You can make seperate rules, or combine them/

.widgettitle { color: #000; background: #fff; font: 12px Lucida Grande; }

This will give you a 12px black widgetitle in Lucida Grande against a white background.

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

My apologies for this question up front.  I am using Arras Theme 1.4.2. I have reviewed the color change tutorial, which states "If you want to make a change do it to the user.css." I see the code to change colors in headers, etc., but exactly where do I place that code to change color?  Thanks for the help in advance!

In the user.css smile

It's best to keep the default.css how it is and put the things you want to change in the user.css

Let's say you have this line in your default.css (just an example):

.widgettitle            { color: #333; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0; padding: 6px 10px; background: url(../../images/feed-title-white.jpg) repeat-x top #EFEFEF; border: 1px solid #CCC; }

You only want to change to the color of the title (the letters). You put this in your user.css

.widgettitle { color: #fff; }

The only that's changed right now is the color, the rest of the line still applies.

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

You can set that background in the custom background part of the theme options.

Can anyone help?

I either want to remove, resize, or change the colour of the space situated between my logo and the navigation bar.

I've tried following the steps in post one but I'm obviously missing something.


The following code is everything that is in my User.css file.

/* To update primary sidebar width */
#main                    { padding: 10px 10px 0; background: #000000; border: 1px solid #d3d1c7; width: 980px !important; }
.sidebar .xoxo            { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 1px -20px; width: 320px;  }

/* To update Header properties */
#header    { height:110px; }
.logo                    { height: 110px; }
define('HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', 980);
define('HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', 110);
#branding { height: 110px; }
#branding { padding: none; }

/* To update colour scheme - header background*/
#header                    { background: #000000; }

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

I have a question about the colour of the header of my site. My url is www.ablogabroad.com, and when I put the custom header on, I noticed it was much darker than the original photo. Is there any reason why the picture darkens up so much when it's a header? It looks like there's a transparent layer of black on it, but I don't know CSS coding at all and wouldn't know where to check. Thanks!
