    for wordpress its most likely that you use 1 style sheet for 3 pages right? ( index, page, single ) is it still posible with 1 stylesheet to make post entries on the pages a different position?

    the only thing i could think of was copy all the classes 2 times and them then all an extra – with the name of the page behind it (for example : .post-page, .post-singel, .post-index ) would that work or is there a better way to do this ?

  • The body will already have different classes under different cases, assuming your theme uses body_class, in which case it’s a matter of tailoring your CSS.

    1 css sheet is fine….. That’s all I ever do

    There is a variety of ways to locate posts in different positions depending on what effect you are going for

    but essentially, just using unique classes/IDs on single.php, page.php and single.php and then referencing those in your css will work….

    you can use specificity in your css if your theme is set up well for that.

    for instance my entire page.php is wrapped in a div called page, single.php is wrapped in a div called single, etc. My loop is always in a class called content

    so in my style.css
    #page .content and #single .content are 2 different things…..

    and then there is the advice given above my reply….which is quite sound and probably answers your question better upon rereading your question

    You don’t necessarily need to use different classes across those files, if the body class changes between those cases, that is sufficient enough to effectively target your elements without giving them unique classes/ids. Not saying there’s anything wrong with the suggestion, just saying it’s not totally necessary…. ??

    I suppose it really depends how much control you need and how easy you want to make it, just use what suits you best… ??

    all i want is that i can change position in divs of classes on the page index and single file without having to know alot of php cause i dont know alot php :$

    in these 2 links i have most classes/divs in different positions (title, entrie,date,)

    index
    single

    is it also possible to choose what widgets u want on wat page? like all the widget u normally choose on index and on single only a widget of “related posts” ?

    sorry if i ask to much but im just curious and i wanna know how to fix this so i can do or help people in the future with it.

    I’m not quite sure what it is you’re asking, if you want to style/position the elements differently between the index and the single post view, either give them differing classes(as RVoodoo suggested – and style appropriately), or use the body class, and style the appropriate selectors. The two links i’ve given you show you ways to variate the class with little effort on your part(all you need do is style the classes that are output by the function).

    Beyond that you’ll need to break it down and be a little more specific with your question(s), as i believe the two links i’ve given you provide you with exactly what you’re asking.

    Regarding widgets, see if information in either of these threads help.
