CSS hacks

Has this theme been optimized for the search engines?

I can say - yes. Yes, because Wordpress is optimized for SEO.

If some people say: "My theme is optimized for SEO" - this usually means theme has hardcoded tricks - this is a wrong way for optimization...

Write original content - that's the right way...

For SEO use permalinks, install "all in one seo pack" plugin (or any another SEO plugin for changing metadata).

How do I change the size of the general text?

When I resize my browser, the contents of the sidebars and main post body automatically shift to the center. How can I fix the content to be anchored to the left side so the content doesn't move if the browser window is enlarged?

Hi, thanx for a great Theme! I have troubles with the header menu 1.i thinking to get rid of it completely - how? or at leastthe small dotted line at the beginning 2.is it possible to place widgets there? (links, text, skype plugin, etc...)

3.is it possible to get rid of the highlited area beneath the post title? thanks a lot!

I forgot - i noticed the customize section gives the option "show top menu", but it's not possible to unclick it...

@M.Vlachynsky,

below the "show top menu" option are two drop down menus. Inside those drop down menus I think you can disable the header menu (try disable pages, and disable categories).

hope that works for you.

I noticed, that my site has an empty <title> tag. Can this be related to the constructor theme? Of course it is set in the blog preferences. Any ideas?

I fixed it by including

<title><?php wp_title(''); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>

instead of the <title> tag in the header.php file. Maybe this should go into the plugin as a configurable option.

Hi,

Why does IE8 keep reporting "Done, but with errors on the page" ?

I tried removing all my widgets, HTML validates, I suspect it has to do with js/constructor.js?

Found the solution to my problem:

wp-content/plugins/wordpress-flickr-manager/js/wfm-lightbox.php?ver=2.8.4'

Bad js in some plugin that I now removed.

Great theme, looks even better without that ugly yellow triangle!

@bcracchi it doesn't work, because the frame itself remains. anyway i decided to leave it there, i would just like to fill it with different color... anyway thanks for help!

hi,

what is the difference between "homepage" and "index" in the config of the layout?

thank you!

I am attempting to remove the bubble image that is automatically placed at the bottom of each post on the Lime Constructor. Unfortunately, I cannot find it anywhere... Could you please tell me where I can find place to remove that image permanently? Thanks in advance.

How do you change HOME in the main menu?

How do I show the user name as a link for all posts/comments?

Здравствуйте, не могли бы подсказать, как поменять цвет отдельно бокового меню и верхнего меню (заголовок), нужна темная тема с синим заголовком и белым боковым меню, если если боковое меню и можно сделать поставив там фоном рисунок повторяющийся, то как быть с верхним меню (заголовком)?

Еще бы хотелось спросить, как вместо текстового заголовка поставить картинку, или если это не возможно, поменять цвет первой буквы заголовка?

gamerdaily.org

@Y.Lopanskiy Для картинки - вставьте картинку в шапку (в настройках темы), а в CSS пропишите: #header h1, #header h2 {text-indent:-99999px}

Для изменения цвета меню - так же стоит менять CSS темы, я просто не совсем понял что, менять - поэтому и не пишу CSS

@TMontague@MPAmedia.com For enable link to author page - open tab "Content" and check "Show author link"

Constructor using the_author_posts_link function for generate this is link.

@bcracchiola@yahoo.com What version of Constructor, what browser? Post link to your blog.

@M.Vlachynsky I added widget support in 0.6.3 version, please wait update

@petersen.victoria Open CSS tab and remove next code

.hentry .footer .line {
	height:64px;
	background: url(line.png) 50% top no-repeat
}

How can I delete the barbed wire at the end of each post on the Black Urban version? Thanks!

Also - I can't seem to link to an external web page. I enter the a href code, but it will not redirect to an outside page - only internal. Is this a problem that you can help with or is this a wordpress problem?

@leslimorris Remove next code from CSS (see CSS tab)

.hentry .footer .line {
   height:64px !important;
   border: 0;
   background: url(barbed-wire.jpg) 50% top no-repeat;
}

About links - send URL to your blog.

My URL is www.thestepfordchild.com

The post I have been testing is: Protected: URL test

You'll have to enter a password - which is: test

It is as though it won't redirect out of my website.

Thanks for the help!

The Link issue has been resolved. Apparently one of my plugins was causing the problem. Thanks!

The favicon doesn't seem to work. I see it when I open my WordPress? dashboard, but not when I view the actual blog site.

I can't get Blogroll to show up on Lime. How do I do that?

I'm sure there's a simple solution in the CSS but I don't want to mess it up - wondering how to shorten the width of the header so that my blog title drops onto two lines (two-word title) but that the header remains in line with the container (I have it on the left)?

How can I replace the Constructor logo image in the header?

how i can edit the theme without activating it? in the preview, cliking "settings page" i get the message "You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page." I am the only user on my blog...

I really wshed there is the possibility to customize this great theme before activating it :)

You can change theme options in wp-content/themes/constructor/THEME_NAME/config.php (if you have access)

Is it possible to change the Home/Index to a page and have the posts posted to a Blog page. Basically I want an intro page when someone first visits the site and for the blog posts to be selected via another page.

Антон, подскажи как поменять шрифт в горизонтальном меню. Весь СSS уже перелопатил и не могу найти где это делается. А то уж очень маленький шрифт получается

Hi. Non-CSS understander here. It's great that you list the instructions above (like removing the dotted underline in the post title), but I don't understand how to implement these changes in the CSS style sheet. Do I delete something, or just add these somewhere? Where?

Hi, thanks for a great theme! I've been looking for a way to increase the spacing between paragraphs. I found this code snippet: p {margin-bottom: XYpx;} and pasted it into the CSS area under "Customize Theme" but it doesn't work. Can anyone help me out?

@prosheprostogo Используй:

.sidebar {
    font-size:1.4em !important;
}

@stefanie.pepping Open CSS tab on Themes/Customize page and write code here...

@richard.topgaard Write following code on CSS tab:

.hentry .entry p {
    margin-bottom:8px !important;
}

Hi, Thanks for this GREAT theme in the first place. I would like to know how I can remove the border lines of the table. My tables are already set to border="0" but the Construtor theme still show border lines of the tables. Moreover, how could I change the settings (e.g. width and height) of the Navigation Menu? Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Anton, thank you very much for the work you've done. I deeply appreciate it.

I'd like to second what Bonnie asked because I have the same question...

Comment by bonnie.o.wong, Nov 03, 2009 Is it possible to change the Home/Index to a page and have the posts posted to a Blog page. Basically I want an intro page when someone first visits the site and for the blog posts to be selected via another page.

..I'm playing around trying to find a way to 'switch' the home page, but I've yet to find it. Any ideas? I assume it's in the CSS somewhere.

@digitalbun Navigation menu don't has width and height settings - but you can change it with CSS:

#header-links {
    width:600px !important;
    height:25px !important;
}
#header-links ul, #header-links li {
    height:25px !important;
}
#header-links li a, #header-links li span{
    height:25px !important;
    line-height:25px !important;
}

For remove table borders:

tr, td {
   border-width:0 !important;
}

Hi Anton! I had a question earlier that I managed to figure out.. but I have another query - how do I change the colour of the drop-down navigation on the header menu? It's currently brown and highlights white, I'd just like it to be white. Could you tell me where to look for the code? www.sparksphotographers.com/blog

@lancemacmillan and @bonnie.o.wong I'm not sure I understand you, because I know feature WP -> Settings/Reading where you can set "Front page displays"

@therilesyouknow You should be change brown color to any other on "Color" tab - "Background Color", but I'm sure you want leave it for body background - use "CSS" tab:

body, a {
color:#5C4B43 !important;
}

How do i move my image down so it doesnt go into the navigation bar OR shorten the navigation bar? laineamp.com THANKS

@AntonShevchuk? - I do want to leave it for the body background ;) Not sure I know what to do with this code - do I drop it into the CSS file or replace the existing code?

Anton,

first of all, brilliant job on an excellent theme. I have a few queries though that you or others maybe able to help with.

1. How do you remove the grey box that surrounds the 'page title' that appears on a page above the text?

2. I can't get the slideshow to work despite filling in the value box. It works with Nextgen plugin but not on its own. Any ideas?

3. Is it possible to remove the 'date, edit, comments ' line at the bottom of every page and the 'comments are closed' line also at the bottom?

My knowledge of CSS is limited to knowing what it actually stands for! An explanation in real easy terms would be very, very useful.

Excellent work and well done,

thanks

ian

Okay so I'm still trying to work it all out but in the meantime. For Bonnie o Wong, check this out http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page

does the trick and I've got it working a treat.

Like'therilesyouknow' I too want to leave the background the same colour. Then the drop menus a different colour. Thats what I really need help with.

Rock a doodle doo, I've sussed it for the dropdowns.

Instead of monkeying with loads of code I don't understand. Just create a massive one coloured background image the same colour you would have used for the background colour.

Upload that in the images section of constructor and save as background image.

Then change the background image colour to what you want the drop menu to be... Voila...

Right then, only going to give this a few more plays then moving onto another theme. Only so much time to spend dabbling.

1. How do you remove the grey oblong box that is at the top of the pages around the titles?

2. Any ideas how to make the header text 'wider' so you can drop the text size down, but not make it jumbled?

cheers,

I am wondering how to change the title of the page from all caps to undercase.

Hi, first of all, thanks for a great theme that works brilliantly and removes the need for almost all back-end php coding.

I have just got everything working really well, and checked it on IE (I work in Chrome) only to find that the drop down menus in the header do not work properly in IE. They are all different sizes and you cannot choose any that are further down than the bottom of the header image. This is such a shame as it looks so great in Chrome. The fonts don't look as nice in IE either but that's a minor gripe. I hate Internet Explorer!!

Thanks again for any help you can offer on this issue as I do not want to have to use a different theme. x

Was wondering if there was a way to increase the width of widgets in the "footer" widget box. I don't want to change the width in the sidebars to the right or left of the post content. Thanks for any help!

Got it! It was a super easy CSS fix to

#footer div {
    width:200px;
    float:left;
    margin: 0 0 12px 0
}

where I changed the width from 200 to the size I needed.

I love that all I needed to do was copy the code to the CSS tab and change the #. Makes life a lot easier.

Thanks much for this super awesome, super flexible theme.

Does anyone know how to get ride of the grey boxes around the page / post title please?

Hi, Thanks for the awesome theme. I have a question, somehow I lost my comment section after each post. How do I get that back?

Thanks

Please, please , please guys and girls. Does anyone know how to remove the grey box border around the post and page titles???

thank you

Ha ha ha ha ha ha. I've sussed it again!!! Delete until found!!

good job! I use this fantastic theme for my site. But how can I do to exclude some pages from the top menu? In the header file I can't find "wp_list_pages" and in the widget section called "header" I'm not able to exclude, please any one help me??

to remove the grey box around post/page titles add this code to the CSS area

.hentry .title {
    border:0 !important;
}

How would I change the color of the Title so that it is different from the color of the overall site text & menu links?

Hi Anton,

Thanks for your last reply.

Now, I have the same problem raised by Annacepia on Dec 1. My friends (customers) are using IE 7 (or even 6) and they found that the dropdown menu is not working properly just as Annacepia descriped.

Me too, I found the Constructor theme awesome and don't wanna change to another theme. Please help. Thanks a million!!!

just wanted to drop in and let you know how much i love working with your theme. the options for customization are terrific, and you've helped a non-code-monkey to create a polished (i think) and unique site that does not appear "canned" or generic. THANK YOU!

Hey! Much respect for developing this theme! My problem:

How do I change the alignement of sidebar widgets? (I wish to align center)

How do I change the font size for sidebar Titles?

Thank You! You're the greatest!

Oh, many questions... @evestus:

.sidebar li {
    text-align:center;
}

.sidebar h3 {
    font-size:16px;
}

@digitalbun: drop-down menu fixed in last version

@RashellR1?: for change header title color use Customize function see Header tab, for change title color in posts use follow code:

.title h2 {
    color: red
}

People, please post URL to your blog on page http://code.google.com/p/wp-constructor/wiki/ConstructorExamples

Hi Anton, I've just upgrade to 0.6.8 but problem still exists in IE6. Whenever the mouse is over the sub-menu below the background image (or the title of the first post), the menu retreat immediately. Thanks anyway.

My site is www.hkibim.org

http://www.llamadreams.com

I'm trying to figure out how to make the fonts bigger in the header/navigation. What part of the CSS do I edit to make the font bigger?

Can I reduce the overall width of the pages so more people with small displays can see my blog? I've reduced the widths of the settings for container and sidebar sizes but don't see an option to reduce overall width.

First, GREAT THEME!!!!

Unfortunately I'm having some issue with the archive template: (http://www.innovativechanges.org/date/2009/ and other such date-based links)

The first issue was that if the original post had an image, it would appear in the archives page but at the very top left, so the title of the post was over the image, often making the title unreadable. I did a quick but not elegant fix for this by moving the image down 65 pixels (.title .thumbnail) in the CSS; this works when the post title takes up two lines of space. Is there a way I can make the image automatically appear below the title, regardless of how many lines the title takes up?

The second issue is that there is no content of the post on the archives page... is there a way to add this, so that the first paragraph or two of the posts appears in the archive page?

Thanks for any help. I have moderate knowledge of CSS and feel fine editing it. -Seth

I have enjoyed using Constructor for a new site I am working on. But I've run into a strange situation. I can't disable the top header menu with the search bar. I know where to do it, (customize theme>header>uncheck "show top menu"), but it won't save my change. I save, I navigate to somewhere else in the dashboard and then I come back to it and it's at the default setting (on) again. What could I possibly have setup wrong? Any ideas?

Hi, I love this Theme -- many thanks -- but haven't seen an answer as a) how to get the title to appear in upper and lower case, rather than block capital letters and b) how to make the font-size for regularly entries slightly larger (old eyes here).

(with a long domain name like mine, block caps make it look longer -- thank you!)

Awesome theme. One question. How can I get a little empty space between the box around a post title and the body of a post?

www.hardcoretetmusic.com

Hello first of all, thank you excellent theme. I have a querie though that you or others maybe able to help with.

Is it possible to remove the 'date, edit, comments' line at the bottom of each page ( and the 'comments are closed' line also at the bottom?

In advance I thank you for your help. enzo

@enzogoo: You can hide it with CSS:

.hentry .footer .links{
    display:none;
}

Hello Anton, Thank you, I just tried and this do not work?

in the Constructor CSS, there is 2 x ".hentry .footer..." 1. is >>>> .hentry .footer {

clear:both

}

>>>>>> I tried twice, firt adding your code to the existant one = nothing seccond, addind your code at the place of the 2 originals = nothing? Thanks

@Anton: I tried puting the code at the end after the 2 other ".hentry .footer" and IT WORK! Thanks...

>>>But there is still one box there in the middle with "comments are closed" How can I remove this one??

Hi Anton!

Really appreciate the theme! Question:

Was wondering if there is a way to make the background of the Sidebar transparent so the logo in my header can show through. I would rather not resize the logo if at all possible.

Thanks! www.atelierdelmundo.com

Also, is there a way to replace the "Page" and "Category" headings in the sidebar with images?

Thanks!

I am trying to remove the orange dotted line under the title but cannot find the code you mentioned above in the style sheet. Has this changed? or am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks

Anton - Please advise an amateur how to edit the theme style sheet to change the font size of text posts and sidebar text (not headings). The Constructor FAQ page has several similar questions but no clear answer. Please help a new fan so I can launch a new blog. Thanks.

Anton - Great theme. Two questions:

1) I am trying to reduce the amount of space between the headings in the sidebar and the list underneath the header. For instance, if the header is "Links", I'm looking to reduce the amount of space between the word "Links" and the first link in the list. I've fooled around endlessly (but carefully) with the stylesheet, but can't seem to figure this one out.

2) I have Admin and Recent Posts widgets in my sidebar. They have randomly started to display with little dots next to them, in some sort of list format. Have no idea how this happened. Wondering how I would remove theses dots. Thanks.

To follow up on my second question. The dots and list format started to happen once I placed some ads in the sidebar, and it has only gotten worse. To recap, in my sidebar I have a Categories, Recent Posts, Admin, Calendar, and Archives widget. I have begun placing ads between these widgets. The ads display fine, but now the other widgets have dots next to either the header, underlying list, or both.

Wow. Sorry for the multiple posts. The moment after I posted my last comment, I played around with my problem a little bit more. The dots only appear when I add top padding to the ads I placed in the sidebar with the following code:

<div style="padding-top:20px; ">

When I take that away, the dots disappear. However, I would prefer to have the top padding on the ads, so I am hoping to find out how I can make it work. Thanks.

Hi Anton How do i completely remove the comments function? or at least make it invisible (ie not just closing for comments, but removing the option of making comments completely.

I'm using the default theme.

thanks v much

took some time to read above posts and found the answer!

jbock...@bockianlaw.com - I was able to do this by increasing the font-size value in style.css .hentry .entry {

font-size:1.4em; line-height:1.6em; padding:0 4px;

This is a great theme, thanks for the hard work. I am also looking for what has been asked by bonnie.o.wong and lancemacmillan. Is it possible to create a menu item with blog functionality apart from the home page?

Hi there, I love this theme, but I have multiple authors on my blog and would like to add a byline with the date and time onto each post on the main page...I figured out how to do it on a single post, but am lost beyond that. Any help is appreciated! www.realgirlswatchsports.com

I love the theme. However I am having difficulty utilizing multiple sidebars. I am using the 2 column layout. But I have created a static front page, then the regular blog. However I want the static front page to have a different sidebar than the blog page.

What is the best way to do this?

Love this theme - thanks so much for putting it together, Anton and making it so flexible. I have question about modifying the header image position. I'm using "center, right" positioning on the Image tab, but I'd like to also move the image down a bit so instead of the "background-position-y: 50%; " that gets set now via some code, I'd like to have "background-position-y: 80%;" instead. I don't see where in the css this is set, so I don't see where to change it. Currently, I'm padding the top of my image with some whitespace as a workaround, but I'd rather just change the background-position-y setting if possible. The header you can see on the site http://bbinbz.clfotonline.com/ is padded at the top; without the padding, the image is too high up and runs over the menu at the top. Thanks.

Great theme,

I have a question: what image types (.png, .jpg etc) are supported for the header images and background images? I'm trying to do an image with transparency in photoshop as the header image in a .tff or other format. www.mediatedmedia.com

Love the theme, thank you so much. How do you change the color of the links within a post?

and my URL is www.minimalexpertise.com

I love this theme, it gives great flexibility.

Can I ask how I can modify the CSS so that my title appear in lower case only?

Thanks!

Hi! Your theme is great, very usefull! I need a little help, I want to remove the little image in the footer, a little tractor that doesn't have really much relation with my site. How can I do that?

Thank you very much

@jghamilto: Support all images types, but for web using PNG, GIF, JPG is more preferable

@AKrizel: Use CSS: .hentry .entry a {

color:red;

@Sucar.Asociados Got to "Customize" page, open "Images" tab, scroll to "Footer Image", click clear and save

awesome theme. Thanks Anton!

one quick question about the slideshow that I haven't found an answer to...

I created a slideshow header for my site at http://www.30daygmat.com/3DGS_wp/ and it works great. I have another domain 30daygmatsuccess.com that's parked to 30daygmat.com. When I try to access the slideshow from this domain, it does not show up. (see http://www.30daygmatsuccess.com/3DGS_wp/) I tried changing the URL of thumb-slideshow to use this domain (30daygmatsuccess) but still didn't work.

Not sure how to fix this. Any help would be great! Thanks!

@Brandon.Wu.com I see strange JavaScript? code in your post, try to remove it...

Thank you for the quick response! Are you talking about the javascript related to NextGen??-Gallery? That's the only other plug-in I've added to this besides the theme.

Also I've found that if I change the URL of the site in the wordpress setting to 30daygmatsuccess.com than it works for 30daygmatsuccess.com but no longer working for 30daygmat.com. I can only get it to work for one of the domains but not both at the same time...

Thanks!

Thanks for your help. I have further questions: How do I get the links to open in a new tab, instead of the existing window? Also, how can I make the categories separate menu items in the header, not part of a drop down?

Great theme. I am also hoping to make the sidebar transparent or a different color, similar to iamlaurens above.

Thanks!

hello, very nice theme indeed, fully customable, except one thing i cant figure out , how can i center the #header-links elements in the top header menu, i have free space on the right, and none on the left, i guess it has something to do with : #header-links li {

float: left; position:relative;

but i've tried many things like sticking some "margin:0 auto!important" everywhere, can't find a way to align these elements. Thanks for the excellent work anyways

hello, very nice theme for building a website. There's one thing i want to do and i don't know how to...Just to display the categories in the header, and display the posts of each one of these as a dropdown menu...

I began to look in appearance>customization to try different things, but i think there's something to do in the main.php file between the 185 and 193 line. But i don't know how to "call" the posts in to make them appear as a dropdown menu.

Thx to anyone for your help !

I know how to hide all comments, but is there a way to hide the "no comments, comments are closed" thing only on posts that I've disabled comments for?

I'd really appreciate the help, I'm going crazy trying to figure it out :P

Great theme, thank you Anton! Just one question - How do I change the size of the font in the header menu?

Hi there, my question has to do with something that seems fairly simple. In the default theme, I would like to make it so that page and post text has a larger font and is full-justified. I already saw, above, how to take out the auto-indent feature. Any suggestions? I can't find in the 3 css files (in the theme customizer and in the editor (css.php and style.css).

I am trying to get multiple widgitized sidebars within the theme. I have done everything the online forums have asked of me. However the get_sidebar command for the theme is throwing everything off. Why is constructor in the get_sidebar command?

<?php get_constructor_sidebar('home'); ?>

When I remove the constructor from the template the side bar disappears. And just adding 'home' to call the sidebar-home.php file does not work. I have to use the INCLUDE command. Which calls the correct sidebar, however the sidebar shows up in the footer.

Any ideas on how I can get the sidebar to show in the correct location?

I posted a more detailed description on the wordpress support forums. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/375617?replies=3

@MiaSalen? Open file single.php (for posts) or page.php (for pages) and change line

<?php comments_popup_link(__('No Comments &#187;', 'constructor'), __('1 Comment &#187;', 'constructor'), __('% Comments &#187;', 'constructor'), '', __('Comments Closed', 'constructor') ); ?>

To next (change only last option - text for closed)

<?php comments_popup_link(__('No Comments &#187;', 'constructor'), __('1 Comment &#187;', 'constructor'), __('% Comments &#187;', 'constructor'), '', '' ); ?>

@susan_bonnici

#header-links a {
    font-size: 10px !important; /* 10px is default */
}

@danaparkinson

/*all posts and pages*/
#posts {
    font-size:1.2em
}
/*sidebars*/
.sidebar {
    font-size:1.2em
}

@D4m4ge You should be have fixed size of header menu and write next CSS rule:

#header-links {
    width:600px !important;
    margin: 0 auto !important;
}

Thought there might be an easier way to to do it... Just deleted all the code regarding comments on page.php That worked of course... Thanks, Constructor rocks!

When creating a new template file, is there a way we can get it to show up under the Customize Layout screen to have it show up along with Homepage, archive, search, etc. I am trying to create an additional page using the tile layout, however the rest of the site utilizes the list or default layout? Or how would I get my new template file to display tiles?

I've added the above code for removing the dotted line under the title, but it still appears.

@jlloyd Oh, i do it in new version please wait, docs already done - see here http://code.google.com/p/wp-constructor/wiki/ConstructorLayouts

@scottinhawaii Pls, post link to your blog

Hi there. Thanks for the great theme, Anton. This is my first time with Wordpress or anything like it. May I ask, how do I remove the image of the bricks on the right side of the header in the default theme?

Thanks for your help! dave

@daveplatter Open images tab on customize page and click to "clear" for Background image, and save changes

Thanks a lot for this gem! I'm happy I donated for this effort.

I have a problem saving a theme. When I click "save theme" it changes theme folder permissions to 666 and therefore cannot write additional files (images, ...), I lost MANY trials on this one! A clue?

@Manzono - please read my answer on issue http://code.google.com/p/wp-constructor/issues/detail?id=71

How can I centre the header pages?

I'm sorry, I'm being very dim, but these just don't seem to work for me. I add the relevant code to the CSS tab, and save it, and nothing at all changes?

(I've been trying the dotted-line removals listed.)

Anton, thanks for your answer. That was very helpful.

Anton, I also just wanted to say that I've donated to support your work. Thanks again.

As an update, the dotted-line removal code worked when I deleted the "# change to small black line", line.

The code to remove the border from photos doesn't seem to be doing much. .hentry .entry img {

border-style: none !important;

Any ideas?

Thank you so much for all your work.

I tried using the below CSS fix so that my menu fixes to the right and not to the left... What do I need to change below to create a menu that sticks to the right side?

@D4m4ge You should be have fixed size of header menu and write next CSS rule:

#header-links {

width:600px !important; margin: 0 auto !important;

little bit of futzing and found that this works: #header-links {

padding-left:370px !important;

@ Anton

The date overlaps with post headings, as seen here: http://ukcpsychedelics.co.uk/. Any ideas how to solve this? Many thanks.

Hi, I've followed your examples to remove the borders

#container {

border:0 !important;

and

#wrapper {

border:0 !important;

I've also tried putting the bracketed code in various other places, but still there are borders around the post, and the (sidebars+container) area... any suggestions?

www.cerebralfootballer.com

Got rid of the one around the post by adding a separate hentry .title{ border: 0 !important}...

Still the main one to get rid of...

Thanks for the theme too!

davidking.marketing,

adjust the "top field" to move date higher? list .date {

position:absolute; top:10px; / reduce to make higher / right:12px;

font-size:1.2em; font-weight:600;

davidking.marketing,

or adjust the right margin of the title post:

.list .title {

padding:8px 0 8px 12px; margin-right: 100px !important; / added - might need to be more than 100p/ margin:0

First of al, wonderful theme! I've got one problem with the header menu though. I don't want the background of the header menu to have opacity but be a solid color instead. But I can't find the opacity code anywhere! Does anybody know how to fix this?

@ wspicer

Cheers for the help, the former method worked out fine.

2. how can I delete the date, edit and 'comments closed' fields in the posts

Thanks

Hi, when I add facebook fanpage widget to the sidebar, it did not show the fanpage window,but only text word: http://internationalfriendly.com on Facebook

What a carefully put together theme. Thank you. If I can solve one larger issue, I will keep it and make a donation.

Under customize it's possible to change color schemes and fonts, but is there a way to turn this off, so I could handle it myself via css? I use the Typekit plugin, and there's no way for me to access those fonts via your customization panel.

It would be much simpler if all the css were together in one css file. Any way to do this? And thanks again.

Hi Anton, great theme. Two questins. Is the a way to make the images on the attachment pages larger? 2,- My site works in firefox and safari. When i went to check it in I.E. the menu bar is not the same and art work in the header wrapper is not there. any clue?

Уважаемый AntonShevchuk? подскажите пожалуйста как поменять размер шрифта в горизонтальном меню?

Is it possible to add a border around the widgets in the side bar?

Ok, I migrated my wordpress install from one location on my server to another. The only thing that is not working correctly is that my header image is not showing. Where in the code is this located so I can re-path if necessary? My website is www.symhome.net

hi Anton, the dates for all of my posts aren't appearing and i'm wondering if it's possible for it to appear together with the time below each post. my site is here at http://closetdaydreamer.com/ do let me know :) thanks in advance!

I love your theme, but I have a problem, the text in the header menu is too small. I have found in the style.css very carefully, but there is no sentence to limit the font-size there.

How can I do?

Best Regards.

How can I add a rather tall image to the "Extrabar", it seems to crop the height of the image to near 200px.

I didn't manage to remove the grey transparent box around the post. I tried adding the FAQ suggested code in CSS tab, so it looks like exactly like this:

} .hentry .title {

border:0 !important;

Is there something wrong? I would apreciate very much if you help me to get it fixed.

And thank you very much, I loved this theme.

I mean, the POST TITLE

When adjusting the theme, how do I save as I go?

When adjusting the theme, how do I save as I go?

I have created a website utilizing the default theme. So I have a static front page, and then a blog page for all my posts. Since I have installed version 0.97, the sidebar widgets to not show up on my blog page. However they still show up when view a single post.

I know this is not because of the Dynamic Widgets plug-in to manage my widgets that I am using because I deactivated it and all the widgets showed up on ever page with the exception of the blog page. Any suggestions on how I can fix this. My website is http://www.symhome.net

Hi Anton, thanks for the theme, love it! I am a total noob and have my blog set up as a sub-director www.mywebsite.com/blog I really want to put a link on the header back to my home page and have tried looking on forums. Is there an easy fix I am missing? Any way you could walk me through it? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

my blog is http://strommentutoring.com/Language_blog/ and the domain I want a button to link to is http://strommentutoring.com/ Just for clarification, I would like to make a PAGE link/button a link to the root folder http://strommentutoring.com/ rather than to something after http://strommentutoring.com/Language_blog/ is that possible?

My husband and I are both using this theme for our sites. It's the best one we've come across yet!

I am having the same trouble as encender from May 3, 2010. My dates are not showing up at the bottom of my posts; only the time is. Is this something I can fix in the code somewhere?

And, also, we noticed that hyperlinks in this theme (I'm using the default theme, and my husband is using lime) use a dotted line under the text. We both would like to use the standard blue font and underlined version instead. Can you point us to where we can change that? Thank you!

Hi, when i create a new page, how do i centre the heading at the top of the new page?

Thank you for your time.

@elissadcruz Hi, for change time to date you should be change main wordpress options. For use standart links you should be use next CSS rules:

.hentry .entry a {
   color:#3333ff !important;
   text-decoration:underline !important;
   border:0 !important;
}
.hentry .entry a:hover {
   color:#ff3333 !important;
   border:0 !important;
}

Hi Anton, regarding my post of may 13th I am assuming there is no way to link back to my home page?

Hi, you want create custom link in top menu? In new version of constructor is possible - you should be change header.php file, read more on wiki page (http://code.google.com/p/wp-constructor/wiki/ConstructorMenu)

Hi Anton, i've tried out your advice for elissadcruz and played around with the wordpress options to try to make the date appear at the bottom of my posts. However, only the time appears no matter what i choose. I'm using the Lime version of the theme right now and did not have this problem with the original constructor theme :( would really appreciate your help. thanks Anton! :)

Hey!

I just upgraded to the new version of Constructor and pretty much messed up my whole page... I've been able to fix fost stuff back to the way I had it, just having a few problems.. http://www.evestus.net/music/

1. the background (body) image just wont stay "fixed"!

2. I'd like to change the size of the font in header links.

-Other than all that, I can see the progress that you are making with this theme and it is getting more and more user-friendly! It was entirely my own fault that I didn't make a back-up of all the CSS I had changed before updating the theme!

All the Best!

-Evestus-

1. Oh, i found bug in my code, fixed (wait version 1.0.4) 2. Use CSS: #menu li a, #menu li span{

font-size:1.2.em;

Tried using the auto update on wordpress and now my theme is all kinds of weird! Can't get it to 3 column anymore. http://www.herebegeeks.com/

I have tried all the Wordpress options, and I do have the date and time option marked, but like encender I am still only seeing the time listed. The date is not showing up no matter what I do.

Is there some coding issue I'm not aware of that would override the Wordpress option? (I should mention I'm a total newb with the back end of things, so please explain in plain English, please.)

I'm working on a site (GreenLivingRoadshow?.com) and would like to increase space between lines. They seem very close together currently.

Also, is seems like html doesn't work in the text widgets. Any ideas?

Thanks for the great theme!!!!

In addition to the above comment, I'm also trying to figure out a way to clean up the menu at http://www.creativespaceorganizing.com/ where I have two problems: 1. I'm not sure the buttons will all fit. How can I resize them? 2. Many of the menu buttons are showing up twice. How do I fix that?

@JoshSauberman? Twice - because you use WP menu and some options from Constructor Menu. For change size - use CSS: #menu li {

height:32px;

font-size:1.2em; height:32px;

@JoshSauberman? For change space between lines - use CSS rule line-height: .hentry .entry { line-height:2em; }

Hi Anton. The constructor theme is brilliant. Nice work. Quick question for you. I can't seem to insert a picture gallery into a page without the thumbnails all over lapping and merging. Also, for some reason the comments box is not showing, even though I've ticked the 'show comments' box in the edit page section. Could this be affecting the spacing of the thumbnails? I'd really appreciate your advice.

Many thanks,

Howard

Looking to change the font color in the footer. I've tried everything I can find within the previous comments but can't figure out what to change. My site is www.goldeneaglescoaching.com

Hi anton - awesome job.

How do I manage to change the menu font colors on hover - I've tried to do it with CSS, but it changes everything on hover. I'm pretty sure I need to change the style link for the menu fonts, then create a new CSS item line, then change it's colour for hover, but I have no idea how to do that.

Essentially, i've got it so that the background of each menu item changes from white to black on rollover, but the font currently stays black - and can't be seen. Not great.

Any help would be much appreciated. Great theme!

Hi Anton, I'm back with one BIG problem since I upgraded to 1.0.3. After landing to my homepage : http://esecretsonline.com both sidebars are blank and the search log-in and subscribe boxes are moved from right sidebar top to somewhere left (extra): After logging in, page looks normal, both sidebars are showing:

Please advise, and thanks for great Theme - it is an Art!

Regards L.T.

Hello, I'm really impressed with your theme!

I'm trying to do 2 things and need some help:

1) Makes pages look more static so I'm trying to remove the <a> tag so the title isn't a link( as it just links to itself anyway ?! ). Also I'm trying to remove the date/time.

I found the page.php in the layouts directory and I removed the <a> but it hasn't worked it also only has the <?php the_title(); ?> so please help me remove the time/date on pages.

2) I'd like a welcome message above the posts in on the front page. Can this be achieved by making a static page and then manually writing the WP loop in the code ?

Your help would be much appropriated. Bradley

Has anyone tried to implement the Google font api (http://code.google.com/webfonts) into their Constructor theme?

I have a decent splash page (ernestoramirez.org), but want to use the same font for a few things within the theme such as the blog title and post titles.

Thanks.

Love the theme. How do i get rid of the "categories" that ends up in my menu of pages? http://singlettrader.com/

Hi, Thank you for a great theme. I have some problems with the top menu(header meny), my menu show all of my pages and I can't figure at how to get rid of these. I have chosen disable pages on the header tab and I don't have any widgets in the top menu. Do anybody have the same problem? Running wordpress 3.0 and the latest constructor theme.

I am having the same problem. I am running the latest constructor theme with Wordpress 3.0 and my menu shows up twice along with all the pages in my site instead of drop downs. http://www.symhome.net

Same problem as mads.berg and jlsymhome...even after disabling the "pages" and "category" tabs the header shows up with everything there. It was working fine until I upgraded to wp 3.0, but I also disabled the menu/nav in wordpress options and it still won't save my constructor settings of "pages disabled" and "categories disabled".

Finally just turned off the header menu in constructor all together, but that means my header widget won't be seen and I'd really like it to be visible.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Problem fixed! Just upgraded to the new constructor version and it all works great now, thanks so much!!!

Hi Anton, thank you for this great Theme. I´m running Constructor 1.0.4 in Wordpress 2.9.2 i have a problem on my site http://appartement-stubaital.com/?page_id=15 the table i created with wp_table plugin does not leftalign with the text. it seems to be aligned to the "permalink-field" "Sommerpreise 2010". maybe you or anyone other have a Hint for, me how i can fix this. Any help would be much appreciated! thanks!

Hi anton, im fairly new to wordpress but i really enjoyed your theme. however it was just brought to my attention that my site www.fresnopartyrentalsdirectory.com is having issues with the sidebars and widgets not showing up on the page in IE or other browsers. Its only been working on my firefox, i'm not sure what is going on, any help would be much appreciate. thank you for your time.

p.s. on other web browsers, the widgets and tag clouds which are usually on the sidebar are now found on the bottom of the page. thanks

I want to align post/page in center of the page. How can I do this?

how to move the previous post and next post to top of a post title? Thanks a lot!!

Tried several times to remove box around page & post title with css code listed at top of this page ... To no avail. Any suggestions.... http://dawggeek.com/handyman1/

Hello Anton, I'm using the default Constructor theme - it's the first time I've ever had my own website so am a complete beginner. I have managed to change a few things using the css I have seen written in this faq but I would like to know how you make the header menu shorter, so that it looks thinner. Thank you.

Hi Anton! I am using the Default constructor theme and I have placed two widgets in my footer and each of them are showing with a small black dot reminiscent of a list indicator to the left of them. How can I remove this? Here is a link to my site. Thanks in advance. I really like this theme! http://whiskers.oohshiny.info/

thanks for the great theme. it's been the easiest to use and customize for me that i've found so far since i'm new to wordpress. however, i'm having the same problem that bcracchi had posted in the earlier comments but i didn't see a solution.

basically i want the whole page to be fixed so it resizes with the browser window. as of now it is not fixed and on other computers it looks all screwed up. i'm using Constructor 0.9.7 (anonymous version).

Is it possible to have the categories across the top in the header area? Not the pages.

@melijohnson

#footer { list-style-type: none; }

@mayyc1

Go to Customize>Header

Check "Show Top Menu" Under Pages, choose "Disable Pages" Under Categories, make sure "Group categories in one menu item" is unchecked

Greetings,

I'm trying to post a table on one of the pages, the table cells form together to create an image. Unfortunately when I do that, the pieces all appear to be separated by varying amounts of space even though all the table borders are set to 0. I tried...

.hentry .entry img {

border-style: none !important;

...which did succeed in removing the borders from around each piece, however they're all still quite far apart. Any ideas?

Simple question, how do I put content into the center of the front page????? I have a single cell table which carries an image library with built-in magnifier which I want to insert into the central content area. Presently as html code block in an index page. Is this possible? Suggest you add this explanation as a how-to in the download, because I have been coding for years, and can't work out how to do this with any of these themes, so lots of people must be giving up on wordpress as a web design tool because of this simple detail missing. Cheers.

I recently updated to the most recent update (and also the latest version of Wordpress) and everything has changed! My header, background and footer images have disappeared, my colour scheme and style has changed (and colours seem unalterable in the customise menu), fonts have changed, widgets have defaulted... Any idea why this is?

Also, all CSS additions have been wiped, and several now seem to have no effect.

I want the footer to be 300 px high. How do I do that?

How do I change the color of the links within a post? They are all appearing underlined (in black color). I would like to change the linked text or the underline color to blue. Please help!

Hello Anton, I am using the search widget with your theme and the results page is blank if nothing matches the search term. No matter what layout page I choose for 'search' the results are completely blank. Any idea what I may have done to cause this?

Hi , i m using the theme at my blog trouwkledij . be. Do you now how I can delete the yellow background behind images and the rounded borner around it? I don't find this in the CSS.

hi anton, i'm using your theme and i love it. I've got a couple of cufon plugins working but on the static pages i.e. the blog and hoome pages the cufon fonts don't show. Someone on another site said

"It was the absence of <?php wp_head() ?> in the static page templates. The Cufón WP plugin is working fine on the static pages now. "

here is my site http://www.mishmash.com.au

Any ideas how to do this? thank jerel

Hello!! I am trying to edit the caption, using .wp-caption, but without success. Maybe I have to comment out other parts of the original CSS? Thanks for any help! Jaqueline

ops, nevermind! I've just realized that the captions appear weird when I use the gallery? tag... if I insert the images one by one, the captions are exactly like I edited.

http://www.lapans.com/blog.php

Help! I've been messing with settings to no avail. I've get it almost all dialed in the way I want but I get these white bars at the top and bottom and then when you go to the about page it grows... What CSS settings in what file do I need to look for to cut it out.

Thanks!!! I'm really new to WP and editing themes but so far it's worked out pretty well.

Can somebody please tell me how to get rid of line feeds that are being inserted into my html? My website test page is http://www.theslipcoverplace.com/test and the Price Quantity and the next 2 boxes are supposed to be on the same line. It looks right in the editor, but then line breaks are added when I look at it on the web page. I am really frustrated because the "helpdesk" I am using says it can't be done which can't be true.

I have noticed that Anton has not added any comments to this site since May 30th. I have read everything on this site and have been searching other forums and I don't see my issue anywhere. I am new to creating web pages and I have learned so much. Does anybody have any ideas about why my form on my test page does not display properly? Why are extra breaks included? See my previous post.

Any help will be appreciated! This is actually getting to be fun though I have been spending way too much time on it.

@marykaye.rios: hi, open your post in plain HTML editor (not WYSIWYG) and remove <br/> after "Quantity:<br/>"

@aaron.robertson: hi, open admin page -> customize -> images tab -> set "repeat vertically" for body image

Anton, I have a very silly questio, I think, but I will make it anyway: I edited a lot some files like "tile.php" and "header.php", for example. How can I protect them from upgrades? Would be a pitty to loose all the changes! =) Thanks!

Anton. Thanks for responding. I removed the <br/> using the HTML editor in word press, but when I look at it on the website using View Source with Internet Explorer, the <br/> is still there. The HTML editor shows this: <td><form action="https://www.securepay.com/easyshop/addprod.asp?mMerch_ID=68813" accept-charset="UNKNOWN" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" method="post"><input name="fproductid" type="hidden" value="17" /> <strong>Price: $ 39.00</strong> Quantity: <input class="mytext" maxlength="4" name="fquantity" size="4" type="text" value="1" /> <input name="fReturnURL" type="hidden" value="http://www.theslipcoverplace.com" /> <input class="mybutton" name="ORDER" type="submit" value="Add to Cart" /> </form></td>

And the source on the web page shows this: <form action="https://www.securepay.com/easyshop/addprod.asp?mMerch_ID=68813" accept-charset="UNKNOWN" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" method="post"> <input name="fproductid" type="hidden" value="17" /> <strong>Price: $ 39.00</strong> Quantity:<br /> <input class="mytext" maxlength="4" name="fquantity" size="4" type="text" value="1" /> <input name="fReturnURL" type="hidden" value="http://www.theslipcoverplace.com" /> <input class="mybutton" name="ORDER" type="submit" value="Add to Cart" /> </form>

How do I get rid of the <br>? I went back to my helpdesk and they told me to get a new theme. I have put so much into this one, I hate to give it up now...

Hi.. How can i add acordion sidebar menu in this theme? like: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/slashdot.htm

Anton brilliant project - way way best of about 7 themes I tried.

www.firstcollege.co.uk/go

Font on the menu bar to make it bigger. I have tried putting bits of code in style.css but no result. I tried Firebug but not much help. I cannot find matching code.

Like other users here I'm using WP for a static site, just using Pages. So I do not want the page titles (in Page textarea/ content) to be a link - but of course it needs to be a link in the sidebar + top menu.

Also how to change that title's color? No luck editing style.css though I got the correct part to change size. I don't understand why no color commands.

Finally I would really like to code a small picture next to this title, to appear\with the title on each Page. I tried putting the url in the Page title box - YES but it caused a lot of mess!

Will happily donate but I would like to get6 fixed up first. Will it mess up Constructor if I install a mod for collapsible sidebar links?

I have the answer to one of my questions, to help anyone else. PAGE TITLE EDIT (this is the title of the page which appears top left of the content area) TO REMOVE LINK + COLOR EDIT In admin, Appearance/ Editor - on the left. Click Page Template (page.php)- on the right.

Go down to <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf(__('Permanent Link to %s', 'constructor'), the_title_attribute('echo=0')); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

Replace with <h1> <img src="http://www.firstcollege.co.uk/art/1redrosegifmarker.gif" alt="rosebud marker" /> <span style="color: #33cc33;"> <?php the_title(); ?></span> </h1>

I also placed a small graphic by the title. <h1> <img src="http://www.mysite/art/art-item.gif" alt="name-of-art-item" /> <span style="color: #33cc33;"> <?php the_title(); ?></span> </h1>

although the alt does not show up. Enjoy.

Hi!

How i can add image outside of the template area? I want to add few images around the template, is there a way to do this? What files should i edit to complete this task ?

Hi! I have just upgraded constructor form previous version. Almost everything changed back to the default. I lost my header picture, the custom css block cleared. Is there any way to save my changes?

Hi Anton,

I've just started using Constructor - thanks for such a fabulous theme! I'm using the Extrabar for my "Pages" and "Recent posts" wigets. How do I get rid of these headings so I'm just left with a list of my pages and my recent comments?

Thanks for any help!

Hi Anton,

I've worked out how to 'hide' the headings, but I've now got another query. My website will have lots of sub-pages. How do I make them invisible until their parent page has been clicked on? Would it simply be a case of downloading a plugin or will I have to meddle with the template?

Thanks

Hey,

Thank you for this theme, it is totally awesome. I've set the background color a dark blue, and now the background of all my forms, and sub-menus are blue. I want them to stay white. What do I change?

Hi, Anton As everybody else, I love this theme, and Im using it in a lot of webs I had to do. So, thank you for your work. Now I actualized to the new version, and there is one thing that changed that I miss: in Categories layout options, before, when i choosed the second choice, one of the images of the post could be seen on the left of any post's extract (the part before the <!--more-->) Now, that image is gone. How can I put it again? I'm sorry if I'm not that clear, my english isn't very good. What I want is to have an image on the left of any post when I click on a category.

Thank you!!

This theme is amazing!

Does anyone know how to get rid of the page titles? I've looked through this FAQ page and it seems that there are several people asking, but no answer so far.

How do I hide the "posted by" text?

BTW thank you very much...you're great :)

@Ben144 - All you need to do is put a space where you'd normally type in the page title

@hisforhome.com

Thanks for the help. That works ok, except that I have a bunch of different pages and if I do that all my pages don't have titles and if I have to edit them it's really confusing. Any other options you know of?

Anyone figure this out yet?

@Ben144 - I've used the space trick in the widget bar rather than individual pages so it removes the page headings rather than the title. i.e. to hide "posts" "pages" "categories". Was this what you were referring to?

Was this ever answered? I need to know...Comment by tytythompson, Feb 02, 2010 Hi there, I love this theme, but I have multiple authors on my blog and would like to add a byline with the date and time onto each post on the main page.

How can I add white padding around/behind my header image so that the area is even with the content area? Here is the blog: http://jenvenegas.com/blog/ Here is an idea of what I am talking about: http://jenvenegas.com

Thanks!

@gibmirdeinehand: You can create white padding on image - it's more easy way

@dwollin: Open "Content" tab and check "Show author link" or create custom layout/template (http://code.google.com/p/wp-constructor/wiki/ConstructorLayouts) and use function the_author_posts_link()

@Ben144: For hide page title you can use CSS: .hentry .title, .pagetitle { display:none }

Or create custom layout/template without title and use it.

@LGJoyas: Choose "List" for "Categories"; this layout use post thumbnail for show image (my English not good too ;)

@Yorman.Nunez Use CSS for change background color, I will create new color option for forms in next version

Anton - thank you. I've been trying to do that, I'm just not sure where to locate the code for the header image and what exactly to put, particularly in regards to specifying the color. any help would be appreciated.

- How can I set the dotted separation line in the top-Menu to solid/white/transparent? - The Menu appears in alphabetical order. Can this be changed? - How the background image can be set to 1280px, without repeating it?

My testsite is: http://platformart.eu/wp

Hi, Love your constructor theme. One question, though. I want to delete the 'Search for:' above the search form in the sidebar. I cannot find where it is generated and consequently I do not know where to change or delete the text. Thanks in advance.

@AntonShevchuk? Thanks! That worked great

I read your comment on how to remove page title from static page. I would like to remove the page title/link from all pages. how can I do this?

Anton, great Theme!! I have an problem or add-on that I need and wondered if you could help. I would like to be able to have click-able slides. Using the nextgen slide and when someone clicks on the slide it links to one of my pages. A lot of slider themes do this, I wondered if you could help me with it? I know I can do this with posts, but I need to be able to do it with nextgen slides and pages. Thanks Anton! I will definitely donate if you can help.

Can anyone please help me with the above post?

I would like to keep the Search Bar (in the Menu) from resizing every time I hover on it, and the little animation doesn't seem to be generated from the CSS. Where can I disable this?

Anton, I changed the css in constructor 1.4.3 menu, pressed "save changes" and got "changes saved". Later checked the css, and it didn't saved. Same as before.

I tried to change it again and again, but no result. The theme say: changes saved, but nothing saved. It worked many times, I don't know what happened. Any idea?

cybourg,

You can find this animation in the JS folder, open ready.js, delete the entire section marked "Header Search Menu".

Thanks a lot for the help, James! :)

Hi, I have used the image tab to insert an image in the content on the left hand side of the design, I also want to insert an image on the bottom right, also in the content. Could you help me with the CSS coding I will need for this.

Thankyou Michelle

Hi, I am getting the H1 tag twice in my home page with this theme. This only happens when I choose the option "Front page displays a static page".

I am also using PlatinumSEO and when it is set up like this it does not recognise the home page properly. eg home title is not used.

Any ideas?

I have never, ever created a blog or website before and am doing well making custom changes. www.hopefilledlamentations BUT...I have read about people getting rid of the gray box, but I have a white box and the code you gave them is not working: .hentry .title {

border:0 !important;

How do i change the favicon? i hate this little plant icon :(

Hello, I want to remove the 'Comments are closed' from the bottom of my posts... this is my web page www.animadostudios.com

I've tried adding the css code above, but could not get it to work.

Here's my code... any ideas.. many thanks... still excellent template!

/ Theme Name: Lime Theme URI: Description: Lime Constructor Theme Version: 1.0.1 Author: Anton Shevchuk Author URI: http://anton.shevchuk.name/ /

.navigation .alignleft a, .navigation .alignright a{

text-indent:-9999%; display:block; width:64px; height:40px; margin:0 20px

body.page .hentry .title a { text-align:center; }

how can i place another menu at the bottom of my site using the same CSS as the top menu but using a different custom menu that i have built? When i use the custom menu widget it provides a very simple vertical list but i wish for another horizontal menu like the top menu. thanks jerel

How can I completely override the "Show top menu" styles? I want to start with a clean slate, and write my own menu.

Hello Anton,

Your Constructor (Ukraine) theme is by far the best I've found so far (in terms of customization options) to help me meet my design/layout objectives.

I just have 2 questions/problems...and I'm hoping you can help me with answering/resolving them:

By the way, I'm brand, spanking new to Wordpress, so please be gentle with me...this is my very first post....check it out here: http://www.synergyintegration.com/blog/ first, to better understand my questions/problems.

1. How do I have the comments form to show-up by default below each post (without visitors having to click on the title of the post in order to post their comments)?

2. Currently, I see a date that's also being displayed/superimposed over the title of the post (which kinda partially obscures the title text). How do I re(move) that date from there?

3. How/where can I go to change/remove the footer text?

I might have other questions/problems as I go about using and further customizing the theme to suit my requirements...but for new these are the most pressing issues.

Thanks for your help and generosity. Keep up the good work!!!

Cyril

Hi Anton,

I guess I have another question (yes, already)!

I would like to update/change the image/badge that I have towards the left side but I'm not sure where/how to do it, and where the graphic image must be saved to.

Appreciate your help in this regard as well.

Much thanks again,

Cyril

Hi I'm using the Constructor theme and I want to remove little navigation link at the bottom of every page as I'm using static pages to make a website.

On each static page at the bottom appears a link like: « Contact This links refers to the next page id number.

Thanks Monique

Hey, I just updated the Constructor theme and now my header and background images aren't showing up? Can you please tell me how to fix this? Thanks Melodie

Hi, Anton. Got same problem as Melodie's. http://yatsenko.org

Beautiful theme but I'd love to customize the header image by changing it's height and bring the body up. Right now if I change the image, I get a lot of white space between the image and the navigation. I want to bring the entire theme up at least 100px. Can you help? Thanks in advance!

Hey Anton, Melodie here again. Still having the same problem. Just tried to upload new pic but it isn't working. Can't get it to put an image at all on the header or Background. Hopefully there will be an easy fix. :) Look forward to hearing from you.

@enci: pls post URL to your site

@melodies: check permission for wp-content/uploads - you can see trouble by link http://yatsenko.org/wp-content/uploads/constructor/cache/style.css?ver=3.1

Hi, thanks for the great theme! I have the same question as johany.d...@gmail.com, Apr 12, 2010

"Is it possible to only see the excerpt instead of the entire content? The general option isn't working. Is there a file to edit? Thank you :)"

I didn't see this question answered but I understand that there are just too many questions for one person to answer so I am posting it again.

Thank you!

Anton, the site is http://freetunisia.org/FreeTunisia and we'd like a thin banner instead of the 320 height.

Thanks in advance!

How can I display posts on categories as excerpts, I only want to show a few lines of every post on the category page. None of the templates provided with the theme seem to do this.

подскажите как прижать подвал к низу странице/браузера если на странице мало контента?

Great tool for Wordpress. Thank you. I have a few minor problems, but the one I am working on now is that the slideshow timings do not change anything at all. I have tried 0ms and 600ms and nothing. 150ms and 6000ms, nothing. 1000ms and 3000ms does nothing either. No matter what numbers I insert the slideshow executes the same value after I refresh the page.

THe slideshow isn't useless, it's a nice default. The settings for slideshow timing in the customize seem useless though. Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks for a great theme!!

How do I change the font of the navigation menu to a specific font? Which .php file do I update and how will the code look? (Font I want is Syncopate).

Thanks!!!!!

How do you slow down the sub-menu speed. I have sub-menus of my header menu and if you don't hit the first sub-menu item the whole thing disappears.

Hi Anton, Thanks for a great theme. I read the notes above and still cannot figure out how to increase the height of the footer to include an image of 300pix in height. Please advise.

Hi Anton, you've made a great theme! I'm pretty new to customizing Wordpress themes and have the following question:

How can I add a sidebar to the homepage when I choose the three column layout? It uses the full width now, but I'd like three column + a sidebar.

Thanks in advance for your help and keep up the good work!

Hi Anton,

I've recently updated to Wordpress 3.2 and I've noticed that my homepage will no longer tile even though I have tried to reset the homepage template in the "customise theme" section. Any idea what the problem is? The web address is www.can.uk.com/newsite

Also, I'm having problems with layout in IE 8. Looks nothing like it looks in Firefox - how do I go about fixing it?

Thanks, Adelle

Love this theme, by far the most configurable I've tried out of hundreds. This will be the one I use. I have one question, I have got Nextgen working with 10 test images as a slideshow in the content section, also using the simplest layout -no sidebars. How do I get this slideshow to horizontal centre of contents rather than appear at leftmost of content section? I can't locate an option for that. Thanks.

These are really useful but when I include them nothing happend:

I've tried editing style.css nothing happens I've also tried editing the RTL.css and theme/customize/css page. Should I be editing css.php ??

Hello! Anton, is it possible to add "google +" to the social icons? Thanks!!!

Hi Anton, great theme...I love it.

I want to be able to drag widgets to the footer. The theme is currently set up to build the footer in the customize screen. I figure this is the reason why the footer widget area is locked in the widget dashboard menu.

Ive taken a look at the footer.php file, but can't seem to get disable the constructor_footer option.

Thanks in advance,

Raymon

Hi,

I like the latest version of this theme - excellent work Anton.

Like many themes - there is an author link to the constructor site in the footer. Very happy to leave it there - however, I do not want my visitors leaving my site through this link. All I wish to do is change the link to open in a new window using target="blank" - I have found were the link is in the code - unfortunately adding the 'target' seems to break the theme and stops it loading.

Any suggestions, please.

I would love to use the theme, but will not if links take visitors away, obviously.

Many thanks.

Mike

Pity, some feedback would be nice.

After I have changed the navigation dropdown height, the second menu or dropdown contains gap when i mouseover.

I managed to solve it by adding this code:

#menu ul ul {

top:30px; //same header height

I can't set a background image for the navigation dropdown menu. I am using this code but it doesn't work:

#menu li a, #menu li span{

background-image: url('images/social.png');
