Hi

I get this as I’ve applied it to the header menu in my stylesheet, what I’m asking is
How do I get it to apply to the sidebar menu- what do I edit to the coding ?

Thanks in advance

Olivia

try decreasing the container – had the same problem!

mine was at 100% and took it to 95% although you might need to decrease further!

container can be found under ‘layout’

hi thanks for the reply.

where would i write the coding do you mean categories.php as opposed to sidebar.php?

ive attached the coding if this helps

hi josh

thanks for the reply, at i least i know where i stand ??

also would you be able to help me use buttons on my side menu- ive applied it to the main menu but im not sure how to do this to the side?

any suggestions Josh

olivia

thanks

hi david

yeah maybe too pink lol, although i really love pink hehe.

i love your site i took some inspiration from one of your tutorials as you can see,

calligraphycompany.com

i was wondering how i could apply the same to the vertical menu on the right, what do you think? and then move it to the left.

is this poss?

p.s. its going to be a long night for me

hi david

i deleted the coding and it done the trick, yet i still want to play with the branding img, must i paste this else where, obviously this took priority over the rest of my change but why?

olivia x

hi david

just when i thought it was going ever so well, its just turned tables on me!

#branding img {
border-top: 4px solid #000;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
display: block;
float: left;

so i copied this in to my child theme and whilst playing with the border-top, i noticed half my changes jumped to default setting again?? so the change we made on the wrapper background filled up with white again. yet it you check the code we put in it still says transparent. how can this be?

olivia

thanks ever so much david

im looking at your site now, your site is very informative and better than the other rubbish out there

olivia x

well well well

david you are a star, thanks ever so much for your time.

so to confirm something here, ive created a child theme, and copy and pasted that section from the parent to the child stylesheet. Is the correct method?

Also one more thing, if you dont know then thats fine but my idea was to have a colour like baby blue or pink at the top and fade it in to the white, i can get a colour at the top and a colour underneath, but will wordpress allow me to fade or must i find a image with the fade already made?
