Thanks. I sent a request for assistance on your website.
pixeldroidMemberI'm not sure how, but you are loading a css file called ggpro-custom-1.css.
The hover colors are controlled in there in lines 262 and 276.
I found this by using Firefox/Web Developer Tools/CSS/Display Style Information (Alt-Shift-Y).pixeldroidMemberI tested various Widget/'More Tag' settings and figured it out.
For the record, here's what I learned:Results of Featured Post Widget - 'Content Type'/with 'More' tag in post:
Show Content – Show excerpt and 'Read More' link. Else show whole post.
Show Excerpt – Show excerpt, no 'Read More' link. Else, not sure how it determines excerpt length, no 'Read More' link.
Show Content Limit - Show excerpt and 'Read More' link. Else, obey 'Limit content to # characters' and show 'Read More' link. # Chars is approximate and appears to include the 'Read More' text.
No Content - Only show what is set in widget – e.g. Post Title, Featured Image.pixeldroidMemberLooking at the same page, can you see why I’m not getting the “Read More” text in my home page widgets? It does show in the archive pages (see the posts on http://thepixelfarm.com/mmob01/category/breastfeeding/patient-education/).
pixeldroidMemberThanks a lot for that. I see that the classes assigned to body can be very useful in customizing the styles in a number of situations. That is great.
When embedded in a widget, a post includes all of its classes, so without modifying the php, I don't think there would be any way to to decouple the widget and post classes.
pixeldroidMemberGlad you found it. If you are going to do a lot of CSS editing, I'd recommend reading a tutorial on using Chrome's Developer Tools.
Being able to identify and tweak properties in real time is invaluable. As you learn, you can alway lookup the CSS properties on the web.pixeldroidMemberThese sound like padding/margin issues. Do you know how to use the 'Developer Tools' in Chrome (or Firebug in Firefox)? You can use them to identify and tweak the padding and margins in real time. They will show you which styles are controlling these properties and where they are in your css (by line number).
pixeldroidMemberThanks for the reply.
Looking at the home pages of the theme demos, if I were to create something that has content laid out like Magazine Pro, but the styling of Enterprise Pro, which would be easier to start with?pixeldroidMemberGreat Thanks.
