I've read through all the posts and can't find a solution to this problem I am having with Amazin Grace (fabulous btw) . Which bit of code in the css relates to the main header text? I've been through and altered everything I think it might be but nothing seems to alter it? Also I have created a subpage for one of my main pages and it doesn't show up? Could this because the third colum is not showing for some reason? If that is the case, what might be the reason that doesn't show. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Denise,

The main header text isn't in the css or any other file…. it is the name of your blog on 'Settings – General' page in the admin area.

Third column not showing????? Oooops, what have you done? Probably something in the sidebar too wide and it has knocked the bars down…. or have you adjusted the font size at all?

Please put in a link for further help.

Hi Brian or Vladimir, I have perused this forum for about an hour simply looking for a way to change the header text from the scripty italic font to something else, like Trebuchet for instance. I am not familiar with the code and am apprehensive to touch any code without knowing exacly what I need to change. Can someone out there in code land please help me out. I see a lot of folks asking how to chage the styles but have not yet received the answer I am looking for.

Thanks much!
Sonya

Hi Brian, sorry should have been clearer, like Sonya it's the size or possibly font of the text that is an issue http://www.nyhe.co.uk

The sidebars appear to be on top of each other in the Amazing Grace theme, I also note this is the case on your sites Brian, I have changed to the Blue Grace Theme and the sidebars appear correctly. I found the answer to the subpage problem in another post that Brian made so thanks for that.

Denise – yes, I can see where your issues is problematic. I did manage to tweak the font a tad, BUT I would rather like to place my corporate logo, or use Trebuchet as the styled font.

see it here:

I hope that code gods reply soon :o)

Thanks Sonya, have solved my problem by altering the width of the images, so that will have to do for now, need to change the colours next but would still be interested in the answer to this problem.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this helps but …
The css element relating to the main title can be found in the stylesheet for the theme.
It is a class called btitle.

It is possible to change the font etc. by modifying this element.

I prefer to leave the original css intact and comment out the existing code for this element e.g.
/* This is a comment and is ignored by the browser */

It is also possible to substitute an image – though it needs to be in roughly the right proportions.
With the original css commented out and an image called my_logo.jpg and with corrected image sizes it is possible to use something like the following code. The first part just moves the existing text a foot to the left where your browser won't display it.

.btitle
{
text-indent: -100em;
}

.btitle a
{
display: block;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-image:url(./images/my_logo.jpg);
height:77px;
width: 348px;
}

I hope this doesn't cause too much confusion.

A PROBLEM ….. ON ONE OF MY SITES……. THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!

I live, eat, sleep, breath, etc… wordpress.

Denise, which site and what browser are you viewing it with?

Hmmmm, damn gremlins! I've probably put a large image in there showing off my adventures and it's given the sidebars the nudge.

Also Denise, I have had a quick look at your site. Play with the area of the style sheet Peter mentioned but be careful… you have already deleted the blog description and it's caused a knock on affect on the rest of the theme hasn't it? I have only learnt all this by trial and error myself, take it slowly and only change one area/number at a time so you know what is affecting what.

Peter, thanks for that… you saved me a heap of typing.

You all take care,

Brian

Thanks for your help, font size is now sorted, just images to do. Sorry Brian, I cannot find the post where you listed a few sites, but the sites usuing the Amazing Grace theme has the two columns on the right hand side on top of each other.
