How to Change size, move navigation bar, increase video size.

  • Morning,

    I hope someone can help me with a couple of things I’m stuck with… https://www.dianejessiemiller.co.uk is my site and the theme is Child Theme Omega.

    I would like some help resizing. I removed the RSS feed column from my page (not sure how I did it), but I would like the column that is there and to the left to fill that space, i.e. increasing the width.

    I would like to move the navigation bar to the centre.

    I would also like to make the video on “Showreel” larger.

    I’m fairly new to WordPress but I’ve looked through the CSS code and all elements of the Dashboard and can’t work out how to do it.

    Help would be greatly received…

    Thanks Diane

  • To center your nav, add:

    .nav-primary {
    text-align: center;
}

    The content is set at ~67% so you would want to set that to your desired width (ie: 100%):

    .content {
    width: 100%;
}

    Your showreel video size is something that can be shifted depending on how you embedded it from YouTube (within the code there is a width=”560″ height=”315″ setting which is how you would increase it). Be careful of the ratio so it doesn’t skew oddly.

    Thank you so much allisonplus!!

    All worked perfectly….

    One other question if I may? How do I move the youtube video to the centre?

    There’s some padding on the right of your content. This will “reset” that:

    .content {
    padding-right:0;
}

    This will then center your Showreel:

    iframe {
    display: block;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

    If this doesn’t work, let me know & we can troubleshoot more!

    Allisonplus, I wondered if I could ask you one more quick thing… How do I change footer text?

    It would probably depend on the particulars of your child theme. Sometimes there will be a place to adjust it within your Dashboard (check the widget area!) but sometimes you would have to adjust the footer.php file.
