Side Bar v1.3.3

[Nieth]

Hey, we're back again and I've just updated the site to v1.3.3. I've been messing around to try and get our old layout working on the new update since I'd made it by hand.

I was wondering if there is any way to alter the content in the Side Bar? I've tried editing the HTML content in the Class_Page.php like I did with the previous version but it doesn't seem to have an effect on what shows up in the Side Bar.

Any ideas?

The links in the sidebar are stored in your database. c: They're located in the table "(your prefix)_links".

Thanks, I wasn't wondering about altering the links though, I was more interested in getting rid of the bullet points in front of the links in the side bar.

Before I could go into class_page and edit the HTML for the sidebar in there, but when I edit that information now it does absolutely nothing.

I'm just trying to get rid of these bullet points.



Editing the Class_Page.php doesn't seem to change those anymore like it did in v.1.3.2.


And I would also like to change the color of the upper bar of the online list.
I know how to change the lower bar, where the users show up, but I can't seem to find where you change the upper bar.




Thanks for the help.

Hmm... for the bullet points, try adding this into the CSS file for your theme? c:

.sidebar li {
         list-style-type: none;   
}

To edit the top part of the online list, go to /lang/lang_online.php, and it should be there. c:

That's pretty awesome. Both issues solved.

One more if you'd be so kind?
In that picture with the bullet points that I showed you. Would you know how to move the links a little bit to the left?

[pachoofoosh]

Glad I could help! ^^

Try adding this below the ".sidebar li {}" section of your CSS? c:
If it moves the text too far to the left, try reducing the margin size a bit until it fits well.

.sidebar li a { 
         margin-right: 25px;  
}

Thanks a bunch, works great.
Editing the CSS didn't work for me in v1.3.2, so I hadn't thought to try it for this version.

Would you by chance happen to know why that huge gap is between 'Clessidra's' and 'Control'?



You're my new favorite member on here, by the way.
I'm trying to get a website up for my girlfriend with basically no coding knowledge whatsoever, and you can probably tell how it's going.

Neverminddd, it's some kind of length error. I'm just going to use a shorter term. THanks for all the help! Her site is pretty much finished and she's pretty happy right now.

To move the links left you'll need to play with margin and padding:

PHP Code:

margin: auto (top), auto (right), auto (bottom), -xx (left); 


Same with the padding. ;3

Also to edit the width of the text, try changing the size or the text-align property in the css file.
