For the page, doing a quick glimpse the only real change it seems it made was to remove the sidebar, but not actually adjust the sizes so I’m guessing that’s where the problem lies.

Hmm, I don’t believe any of them change the CSS beyond the one that just adds the background. Playing around with them didn’t yield any results either.

-So essentially I need to play with the pages and see which has the column ones?

Right now, I have it (on the entry pages anyway) that every page except for the Exploration Log Page is listed as a “Full Width Page”–Exploration Log Page is kept as default.

-They are the right color now and both the comments and edit links are fixed as well ?? Thank you so much!

I think the only things left now are the page alignment thing. And the weirdness when reading a direct link to an entry pushes the sidebar down as the alignment shouldn’t change from the post view beyond no other entries following it and being able to see all the comments.

It’s a very modified version of the child theme I did from the Passionate theme.

-I went through each content page so far and the only one that had something like that was the search page (which I do want to keep as excerpts)–I did test it and it did only effect the post length when searching so I changed it back. Still continuing through all the other files to see if I can find the one for the entries on the page normally. I’ll edit this if I find it, but just wanted to give an update real quick.

Edit: It ended up being a weird fix (it wasn’t so much just switching it as I had to replace an entire line of code from the archive that had the matching text in the home.php section), but the entries show in full now! Thank you!

-Is there any way to change that width/column alignment with a page template? So I can leave it alone for the blog page and viewing blog entries in full, but keep the rest on a different one.

-Text boxes on the Contact Form, the category bar (drop down below archives), and the search boxes themselves.

-The CSS for the Search bar color worked! Thank you! Now just the Contact Form text boxes and the category drop down menu to fix the background colors on.

-Just added the Categories to the test post–forgot Uncatergorized doesn’t show up. The problem is that it strings together towards the end… There is no space between the last Tag and Leave a Comment or a space between Leave a Comment and Edit. (And if there are no tags, there is no space between Leave a Comment and Categories either).

Yes, they said the first two were bugs and that updating would fix it (and I did update), but it did not fix either one. They consider it fixed though (so I don’t know why it isn’t fixed then on my end) so I don’t think any further fixes will happen in that direction.

In general, when I say CSS, I just mean anything that needs to be modified through the Editor/Coding.

Collections page will eventually look better when I get the image borders set up x__x just wanted to save that for last. Hoping to have each one look like this: https://i.imgur.com/rm3BDWD.png

And this is what they told me on their support forum:
“I already mentioned you that for free theme you need to hire some ccs guy to customize as per your requirements.”

Then linked me to some basic google pages. Essentially, unless you pay them for “pro support”, they won’t tell you what parts of the code to fix for the few issues I’m still having :/

They said the issue with viewing a single entry of a post centering itself and pushing the sidebar down and the last thing about the lack of spaces, but their update fixed neither so :/ And I know I’ve fixed these kinds of things in the past with other themes–just can’t find where to do so in this one.

Their support forum is only for bug fixes–not for helping with CSS coding :/

Pictures of the issues I mentioned above:

As for the search bar, I’m looking to change the icon, the text color, the textbox color, pretty much all of it. I want to make the background color a very dark translucent blue (like how the sidebar is) with the button to be Black or Dark Blue. The drop down menu for categories also needs its background color changed along with whatever indicates it is a drop-down menu.

Finally found something I am mostly able to work with. (Passionate theme) Very few issues are left so just looking for some suggestions for those…

-Page with the blog entries only shows excerpts. They should all shown full.
-When viewing a single entry of a post, it centers itself for some reason which pushes the sidebar down below it.
-Static Homepage page will not center the entry. The actual text in the entry is centered, but the overall body is towards the left like the post system tends to be.
-Some issues with CSS… Text boxes remain white despite trying to change the colors multiple times
-Can’t seem to change Search bar colors
-Issues with text under blog entries… More or less, it’s not spacing properly. It essentially goes:
Posted In Category, Category A, Category B Tagged Tag, Tag, Tag, TagLeave A CommentEdit

I’m not sure why there is no spaces between the tags and leaving a comment and the Edit button…

Issue with sticky header is it seems to just want an image–doesn’t let me do anything with navigation or transparency.

Sticky Footer also seems to want me to specify all these things when it just should be everywhere. ??

I’ll try switching to a different theme (feel free to suggest any) and give those a try ??

Here is one quick example from a quick google search: https://andrewdyke.me/spacetheme/

I had tried, but received no responses there.

Plus, as mentioned, I’ve been trying various themes and am up to trying different ones too if people think they work better. It’s just the one I’ve tried most recently/have gotten the closest with.

Right now I am playing around with Agama.

I’ve tried a few different ones though.

Well, the good news is that it partially worked for the main homepage which means that it now DOES show up in the middle.

The problem now is that the website is still scrolling down further than it should (Essentially making the page itself longer rather than being fixed like it’s supposed to where scrolling would just cause the body of the page to scroll with the header and footer not moving at all) and for some reason, the page for the actual blog posts is just… incredibly broken and the Plugins do not seem to work at all for it.

I’ll take a look through those! It looks like they could help me with the WordPress Elements more.
