Need some help :)

Permalink
I'm putting together a site for one of my projects - and am using a theme generously converted by the Concrete5-Japan guy here on the forums (the theme was made by Free CSS Templates).

Unfortunately the converted version produced by the Japan guy, from what I can see, doesn't work quite correctly.

Would someone be able to give me a hand getting it working properly?

http://new.fullflavour.co.nz is the new C5 install, with some dummy content and the theme activated

http://new.fullflavour.co.nz/stylized... is what the theme *should* look/act like...

Any help would be much appreciated !

Hey fullflavour,

It looks like this might be working fine. The only thing is that you may need to do some changes to your CSS.

In the second example, the content is set up using a few different kinds of CSS classes.

There's a DIV with the class "post", with an H1 inside with the class "title" and a DIV with the class "entry". I'm guessing that this is the key to what makes it look correct.

You'll need to use these same CSS classes the same way if you want it to look similar, unless you modify the CSS to work a different way. You might need to edit the HTML of your Content block, create a custom template, or create your own block, depending on what seems best.

The other thing about this theme is that it applies styles globally. If you look in the CSS you can see that it is applying styles to the whole body or to all H1 tags. This might create problems with Concrete5's menus. If you are having problems with the menus, then you can try to make the styles more specific. For example, instead of a style applying to "h1", you can use "div#page h1" to make it apply only to H1 tags which are located inside a div with the id of "page"

Hope this helps. Feel free to ask if you have more problems
