Along with the standard Wordpress features, this theme has integrated the following functions into it:
This theme is a fixed layout with two columns.
The three widgets on the home page are housed in the All of the information within the main content area is nested within a div with an id of "primary" within the page.php file.
The sidebar's (column #2) content is within a div with an id of "secondary" within the page sidebar.php.The homepage information is hosted in home.php file and includes the div id "featured" content area which houses the slideshow and widget up top. The three widgets on the home page are housed in the sidebar-home.php file.
If you want to alter the css or style of the site you can modify the style.css document. It is advisable, owever, that you use the option to any css updates to the CSS input field in the Theme Options panel under Appearance.
The file style.csscontains all of the specific stylings for the page. The file is separated into sections using:
/* === Reset=== */ Many browser interpret the default behavior of html elements differently. By using some general reset CSS file, we can work around this. This file also contains some general styling, such as anchor tag colors, font-sizes, etc. Keep in mind, that these values might be overridden somewhere else in the file. /* === Global === */ Body text colour and style /* === Headings=== */ styles for h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 etc /* Text elements */ styles for body text and all other variations /* Links */ hyperlinks and url styles /* Menu */ main navigation styles /* Small menu */ for when the site shrinks down to mobile device sizes /* Content */ /* Asides */ /* Sharing */ includes settings for the twitter and facebook share options on each page. insert display: none to remove from site /* Media */ includes images /* Navigation */ navigation within pages style eg.next and previous post /* Footer */ /* Comments */ /* Functions */ /* Widgets */ includes styling for custom widgets /* Structure */ /* =Home Page */ /* Searchbox Style */ /*Responsiveness */ settings for responding to different device sizes /* Grouping */
If you would like to edit a specific section of the site, simply find the appropriate label in the CSS file, and then scroll down until you find the appropriate style that needs to be edited.
