It’s there now. Try emptying your browser cache and reloading the page.

I like it (took me a while to figure out what it was about, though–).

I created a similar background for my main site. I used a couple of different transparent black pngs to make some text more readable. You might want to try adding them as backgrounds to your widgets just to make them a bit more readable.

You can download them from here:

all single posts

If you want all links in all posts to all be the same color, you can use the code I gave you like this:

.entry-content a, .entry-content a:visited, .entry-content  a:hover, .entry-content  a:active {

style info;

}

I thought you meant that these:

sidebar background, main wrapper background, and the background in a blog post, I need to use a different color for links in each location.

were all going to be different (i.e., you were going to style each widget in each sidebar differently). If that’s not the case, ignore the targeting by ID information I gave you earlier and you can just go with I just posted here.

This thread:

has links to my style sheet. You can peek there and see if any of what I have done helps you figure some other things out.

In reply to: Disabling preview of blog showing on Slider

#22313

Okay, then try this in your custom CSS or child theme style sheet:

.slider_post_entry p, .slider_post_entry .block-button {display:none;}

That’s NOT tested, but it should work. (I’m not the slider expert around here.) Let us know how it goes.

the sliders do not show a preview of the blog in question?

The slider is designed to automatically show excerpts of blog posts. If you don’t want it to show those, what would you like to show?

I’m assuming I need to add new custom CSS values.

Yes, you do. But you need to target each section. See this link for how to target items by the unique ID number that WordPress gives to everything:

http://blog.kjodle.net/2011/12/05/fun-with-text-widgets-part-two/#Styling_Text_Widgets_by_Targeting_their_ID

That refers specifically to text widgets, but if you look closely, you’ll find that everything has the same numbering scheme applied to it.

The code you will need to use will differ a bit from what’s in that tutorial. Instead of this:

#text-7 {

text-align: center;

background:blue;

}

you would need to do this:

#text-7 a, #text-7 a:visited, #text-7 a:hover, #text-7 a:active {

text-align: center;

background:blue;

}

(Note: anchor links must be listed in that order, or the css will not work correctly.)

Cheers,

In reply to: Sharethis positioning

#22309

Keep in mind that most sharing buttons (unless you use their API, if they have one) will link to the page on which they are displayed, even if it is a page of excerpts–in which case the buttons from each excerpt will all link to that excerpt page, not to the individual posts from which they are excerpted.

In reply to: Color option problem.

#22287

I’m working on a tutorial about transparency, but I’m busy working on other….ummm….projects. Give me a few days (a week, maybe?) and I’ll explain how to do this.

In the meantime:

the header puts a black background behind it preventing view of the main background

Try adding background: none; to your custom CSS for this element, just before background: url(path); which should clear the background color and allow your image to show.

Your translation is incomplete. I am not sure what you are asking about.

Can you include a screen pic?

In reply to: Menu is where the pages with this many colors

#22261

The background for the header menu is being pulled from a sprite image.

You are seeing multiple colors because the the header menu is really intended only to be one line long. You have so many pages added to it that it is extending to multiple lines, and thus is pulling in the rest of the sprite image file.

You can read more about sprites here:

https://forum.graphene-theme.com/graphene-support/sprite-images

There are two (maybe three) options you could try:

1) Use a custom menu to include only the most important pages in the header menu, organizing some pages into submenus. (To be honest, too many page links at the top just doesn’t look good — it’s too much information all at once for most people.)

2) Make the header menu text smaller, although you won’t be able to make it small enough to include all these pages.

3) Create your own sprite image for the menu background, or just use a solid background color instead of a sprite image for the menu background.
