On pages, i.e. http://attractinterestdesireaction.com/aida/?page_id=2 , the blog title is left-aligned

however on the rest of the site, the blog title is central.

how can I change it to be left-aligned throughout the whole site?

Have looked in the CSS but I’m not too experienced!

Thanks.

I’m using this beautiful, beautiful theme and I was wonder how do I put a summary for the post in the main page, cause I would like more… more than the title of the post. How can I do that? Can you help me? Thanks… Priscila

Hi Ashley, you may already be aware of this but I was coming back for some older theme love and notice the 'preview the demo' for Takimata is linking through to the Moleskin demo. (intentional?).

Wonderful theme. Not fond of the colors but the layout is amazing!

Robert,

How are you? I’m using Takimata (great theme!) at StartupComedyU.com, and I want to add a 2nd column to the blog sidebar. Have been hacking it for a while, but the results have been mixed (e.g., overlaps). So I was wondering: maybe you have thought through some of these issues, and can furnish some quick pointers? Thanks kindly for any attention. And by all means, feel free to point me to the virtual tip jar :-)

Best,

Frank Ruscica

They shouldn't disappear when you refresh the page. But if you don't want the links, delete this from single.php:


				< ?php previous_post_link('%link', '« %title') ?>
				< ?php next_post_link('%link', '%title »') ?>

Ah, that makes sense. I can change back the width of the posts to prevent them from overlapping, but do you know why they disappear when you refresh the page? If not, how would I go about removing that area (the links on the right)?

Thanks a lot for your help.

That’s very strange. No, they are supposed to be there so if you have a long post there’s navigation top and bottom. But they shouldn’t overlap the post.

By: Orien

Orien — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 23:13:21 +0000

Oh, haha. I think we weren’t talking about the same thing. :)

I was unaware that the links should show up on the right side and below, because when I refreshed the page, the links on the right went away.

I don’t see a problem in the screenshot. Are we talking about the same thing? You should have next/previous post links on the right side and below the post, but they shouldn’t overlap the post. On your blog, I saw that the sidebar links overlapped your post, but you have the width set wider than the layout allows. Am I missing something? :)

I’m not seeing it. Which posts?

By: Orien

Orien — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 22:56:02 +0000

I just cycled through the posts on the demo and I’m seeing the same thing happen on random posts.

By: Upstart Blogger

Upstart Blogger — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 22:47:58 +0000

I'm not seeing this problem in the demo, so it's likely you've changed something.

By: Orien

Orien — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 22:42:54 +0000

Hm, the thing is that it was doing this even before changing any width parameters.

By: Upstart Blogger

Upstart Blogger — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 22:30:02 +0000

As far as I know, there’s no problem with the theme, but changing the width would definitely throw things off.

By: Orien

Orien — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 21:12:08 +0000

Hi,

The only things that I changed were the colors and the width of the individual posts. However, this bug was showing up even before changing the width. I downloaded the theme from the Sandbox Competition website if that makes a difference.

Thanks again.

@Orien: I’m seeing this in Safari, too. Did you change anything in your style.css file? Something is definitely off.
