Repairing my Blix Theme...

Post by lordcoffee »

Hi everyone!

Before I'll start some new themes I thought it would be better to repair to old ones first ;-)
So as you can see on postscriptfreunde.de
There are some problems with the sidebar Categories ("Meine Themen") and the Syndicate this Blog ("Blog abonnieren"). The "Meine Themen" dosn't accept the padding-left like the other sidebar plugins and the syndication "Field" shows a seperate row for the "RSS" image. Can someone help?

Thanks, Lordcoffee!

Hi!

Your HTML output of the "Meine Theme" contains:

Code: Select all

<ul id="serendipity_categories_list" style="list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px">
So either you need to edit the plugin_categories.tpl template and adjust that, or you need to explictly add the padding to each of the ULs:

Code: Select all

.container_serendipity_categories_plugin  #serendipity_categories_list li {
  padding: 5px;
}
[code]

(or something like that)

Your syndication field though looks fine to me (Firefox, Windows)...

Thanks!

Now it looks quite cool but only in firefox (1.5). In IE 6 (Win) it looks still "dorschenanner". The gap between the links is to large and the categories container still isn't whats its supposed to be.

hi lordcoffee,

i've been playing with blix myself recently, just having fun, nothing serious, mostly because I love the WP entry footer and the search box, and wanted to use them in another template, do you want me to send my version to you so you can have some fun, maybe see if any of my changes are worth putting into your version?

Cheers

Carl
