Laundry list of problems

It works fine but I have a problem with it and I am still waiting for frumph to make a way to make landing pages for the individual comics, unless he already gave a way to do that and my idiot brain couldnt handle it…

he ssaid he was going to modify the template… so I am just waiting for that, slowly setting up my site so it will be ready, and learning other wordpress stuff so I have no right to complain about other stuff.

actually, i’m waiting for someone ELSE to help me with it since it’s above me, but having the /comic/<chaptername>/ be the landing page

this is going to make me sound like a crazy person… but I am almost 20% sure that I have an idea of what to do. I discovered through rampant experimentation… that I can make blogs appear on a page of my choice.

I have a feeling, if I knew where the “blog” template was stored in the file labyrinth of wordpress, that I would be able to figure out how to make the comics I desire to appear on the page… actually appear.

I am not sure in any sense though, I am experimenting, and am likely going to make a mistake… is there a way I can make it, so that this page only displays blogs from a specific category by the way?

I feel like that part should be easy :/

I have decided… that this must be done the hard way, with a seperate wordpress install for every single comic on the site ??

it will be tedius, but its the only means I have available too make the website function how I desire.

That’s your choice, but I told you how to make an easy link landing page by using /?latest=# #= chapter number

It will work out for the best, since there are multiple contributors too my site… all good friends, but some of them… well I wouldnt want them messing around with the home page too much.

there is a couple of other things I need to know though… just to get it looking rihgt.

How do I remove the white background in the content area, and the grey background on the menu…

the one most similiar too what I want is “high society” but it has an even more intrusive yellow and fancy thing behind the menu…. and for some reason, a white background behind the blog (ugh)

The high society theme, that yellow is an image in the images/ directory, you can just replace it with this line:

body.scheme-high #page-wrap {
	background: url('images/background-high-page-wrap.jpg') top repeat-x;
}

Just replace the url(‘ with whatever URL your own image is, you can grab that image from the directory and modify it as you wish but don’t put it back into the same directory, put it someplace else so that when the theme updates you don’t lose it.

the background for the menubar you have right now is:

body.scheme-ceasel #menubar-wrapper {
	margin: 5px auto;
	width: 98.2%;
	background: #5e5e5e; /* Old browsers */
	background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #8a8a8a 0%, #707070 49%, #5e5e5e 51%, #777777 100%); /* FF3.6+ */
	background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#8a8a8a), color-stop(49%,#707070), color-stop(51%,#5e5e5e), color-stop(100%,#777777)); /* Chrome,Safari4+ */
	background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #8a8a8a 0%,#707070 49%,#5e5e5e 51%,#777777 100%); /* Chrome10+,Safari5.1+ */
	background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #8a8a8a 0%,#707070 49%,#5e5e5e 51%,#777777 100%); /* Opera11.10+ */
	background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #8a8a8a 0%,#707070 49%,#5e5e5e 51%,#777777 100%); /* IE10+ */
	-moz-border-radius: 4px;
	-khtml-border-radius: 4px;
	-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
	border-radius: 4px;
	color: #fff;
	text-decoration: none;
	text-shadow: -1px -1px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.15);
	overflow: visible;
	-moz-box-shadow: 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) inset;
	-webkit-box-shadow: 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) inset;
	box-shadow: 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 1px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) inset;
	-webkit-appearance: none;
	padding: 6px 5px 5px;
	border: solid 1px #666;
}

Notice the plethora of webkite gradients up there, but, if you use the edit-css module from jetpack you can just override it with:

body.scheme-ceasel #menubar-wrapper {
     background-color: Transparent;
}

Or find a guide online to doing css gradients there’s some tools that will give you the code to replace it whenever you want.

There’s also a border: in there and such you can set to none; or 0

Also have you seen?

How they do all of their comics? Tons of em, right sidebar.

And note, you can give all of those ‘friends’ “Editor” access and not admin access and they can’t screw with stuff, just post and edit posts really.

thank you for all of your help ?? I really appreciate it.

I literally only have two more problems I need to resolve…

https://www.future-bound-entertainment.com/dans-voyage/

why is there a white box behind the comics blog? and how do I change all the links colors, I tried to change link colors in thhe customization thing, but it isnt working :/

because you set a white background behind .narrowcolumn in the customizer?

finallly found it after two hours of searching (WHY DO I SUCK SO BAD *EYE TWITCHING*)

now all that is left is to change everything that is yellow, to a proper color for the comic. Then to mirror these changes to all the individual comic pages…. ugh.

for some reason I cant get the links to not be yellow. and its unfuriating.

Hello Frumph and bhagen111,

I have a similar project. I just want to run a second comic strip parallel with my main strip. It would not appear on the front page, only on its own page. I’m afraid I don’t understand the various instructions you’ve given to ralok. Can you summarize, please?
