Kubrick question

If you want to tweak a theme or learn how to design a theme – forget K. It’s a nightmare!
Start with Classic or something simple.
There are more than 400 themes: https://themes.wordpress.net

Hi moshu,

LOL – I arrived where I want to be, except for the darn sidebar…

But yes, I was astonished what kind of theme is delivered as default. It’s pretty… err… I’d better not be specific ??

I’m – as we speak – filching existing themes. But unfortunately most are not what I’m looking for, and short of downloading and installing I can’t exactly see whether they are what I need.

So I hope those among you who have a better insight:

I have a header img, a footer img and a container img which I need to keep using or it’ll be from scratch again. The theme should be right sidebar/two-colums, fixed width.

That’s why classic doesn’t help me any.

Sounds like a K-fan or K-clone… ??

Back to the OP. page_item and pagenav are generated by the Template_Tags/wp_list_pages;

Hi moshu,

actually I would have loved having the Laila skin of Nucleus ?? Love that one.

Well, I adapted Kubrick, so of course I used the same set of images.

My problem is, that I don’t find those classes. Maybe I have tomatoes currently where my eyeballs ought to be, but I’ve been looking for them and can’t find them.

Or do you mean to say I have to ADD them to Kubrick CSS to change the sidebar looks?

Yes, whatever doesn’t exist in the stylesheet – you may (or sometimes you have to) add.
That wp_list_pages tag even generates a “current_page_item” for the Pages when you are on them, so it can be used for highlighting.

I am sure you know this: look at the source code to see what is generated by the template tags and use those classes and ids to make your stylesheet more specific.

Hi moshu,

thanks, I’ll try. And nope, that wasn’t self evident to me, I checked the IDs via FF and saw there’s a class attached to the sidebar display – which usually means the class already exists ;-)))

So I can eat the tomatoes now :o)

Hi again,

worked it out now, but it was elsewhere altogether ?? Good I ate the tomatoes…

But thanks for the help, at least I now know how to style THAT stuff ??

Hi again,

ok – yet another Kubrick question…

With IE the sidebar links have no bullets, with FF they have a double arrow. Any idea how to remove that one?

Greetings

LHK

Edited* Sorry, for some reason those back slashes don’t show up in here.. you can just view my CSS File file once and locate that code and just comment it out…

//**.entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before {

content: “backslash 00BB backslash 0020”;

}**//

I have done it to mine over here:

I have one problem with Kubrick Theme also. In the IE everything is OK but in Firefox footer image is one or two pixels on the right on every WP Kubrick Blog.

Any idea how to correct this?

I have the “Fixed” files here, in a RAR archive:

I hope that helps..
