Layout Lounge Help Desk

[sireesanwar.livejournal.com]

This community is to help me and others find ways to make their journals look how we want them too.

I wouldn't say I'm an expert at messing with layouts though I have figured out a lot about Flexible Squares. If you have a question please feel free to ask me by commenting below.

Couple Rules:

1. And example of your problem or what you want done to your journal.
2. Sometimes it can take me a little while to find the information asked for, so please be patient.
3. I don't do slash-y type things (ie headers). I can still provide you with a layout but then header would have to come from somewhere else.

LJ is dropping the ball a little and so community moderators aren't getting their comments. So if you don't hear back from me in a few days head over HERE to let me know if you need any help.

1. The Header Nav Bar.
You can remove these unwanted links by going to Customize Journal Style (http://www.livejournal.com/customize/options.bml). Go to the Menu options and mark both "Show Memories link on Menubar" and "Show Website link from Userinfo page on Menubar" to NO. This will take care of that header menu bar.

2. Date.
In you coding you will find this section:
.entryHeaderDate {
float:right;
color:#ffffff; <--- see white
font-size:8pt;
text-decoration:none;
}
The only way I could get the date to "disappear is to simply change the dates text color to match the background. Any other option requires a custom layer.

3. Sidebar Headers
In your coding you will find this:
.sideboxTitle {
width: 100px; <---- Added this line
background:#3d3d3d;
padding: 8px 6px 6px;
color:#fff;
font-size: 8pt;
font-face: arial;
text-align:justify;
letter-spacing: 2px;
text-transform:lowercase;
}
I added a width line in my test. This changed the width. Its default is 200px because that is the width of the sidebar. You can change it to your desired width.

4.Entry Linkbar
So far I've found no way of getting rid of your unwanted links that doesn't involve a Custom Layer. I'm going to keep working in hopes I will find the solution.

I am so glad that helped you. Now to figure out the last thing. That Entry Linkbar is a toughie.
