|
|
1. I have the "Blog Name" component set to show in the left hand column but it's not showing.
2. I created a category under the "Secure" section and now the secure folder and the one I created are both not showing on my page.
It should say
Main Page
> Secure
> Members Only
The url is http://lnjnw.blogharbor.com/blog
Help!
Thanks in advance,
Kellie |

On your particular blog Color Scheme, the blog name component is designed to be white, as it will typically sit in the header over a blue background.
Since you placed the component in the left sidebar which has a white background, it is not visible (white on white)...
Changing the colors for a specific object type is a little tricky, but there are instructions here which explain how to modify the articleTitle class in CSS, which allow you to change the font, size, color, etc. of the title of an article. Instead of the articleTitle, you will need to change the componentBlogname class:
Here's an example to get you started:
Code: | .componentBlogname {
color: blue;
}
div.componentBlogname a:link,
div.componentBlogname a:visited,
div.componentBlogname a:active
{
color: blue;
}
div.componentBlogname a:hover {
color: blue;
} |
A useful list of valid colors and names is here:

Hi John,
That explains why I can't see it! However, I do want it to show against the blue like it used to, so I would add the "blog name" component back to the header to achieve this? |

It doesn't seem to allow me to add that component to the header. |

Remove the one in your sidebar first. |
