Sidebox font sizes different

[brettw]

Hi All,

Im having a problem on my site where the fonts in the sidebox headings are different sizes.

Im hoping that this is controlled somewhere in the css file.

The site is http://www.eastcoasthobbies.com.au

Any help would be great.

Cheers

Br,
The problem you are having is that you have two stylesheet's fighting each other.

1. stylesheet.css
2. stylesheet_old.css
3. Use a program Winmerge or take time to have 1 stylesheet.css
4. What happens is the stylesheet_old.css is the last place Zen looks:
5. So if you edit stylesheet.css, and the same declaration is in stylesheet_old.css nothing happens.
6. Take time and consolidate to one sheet...
7. I know a pain, but well worth the effort for customization

Thanks for the reply haredo...

I have removed the _old.css file as it was not doing anything however still no joy in getting all the headings the same..

Excuse my ignorance here however should I also look into the individual sidebox php files for the sizes or does the css file take care of it?

Thanks for cleaning up the Css folders with one stylesheet.css

This will get you started:

includes/ templates/ ech/ css/ stylesheet.css

Find this:

1. .leftBoxHeading {
   margin: 0em;
   background-color: #db251f;
   padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
   }
2. Change to:
3. .leftBoxHeading, rightBoxHeading {
   margin: 0em;
   background-color: #db251f;
   padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
   }

Delete this:

1. .leftBoxHeading {
   margin: 0em;
   background-color: #db251f;
   padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
   }

having read this thread please can you tell me what "padding" means.

Am I right in assuming to change the colours of the various boxes to match my side colours and logo, would I follow the path ....includes/ templates/ ech/ css/ stylesheet.css.... or if not, could you point me in the right direction.

Also while I am in that area can I also bring the fonts sizes into uniformity.

Many thanks (smack me around the head for being dim, but with something that doesnt hurt !).

Very simple Padding means:

1. If you are standing in the middle of a Picture Frame
2. It is the space between you and the edge of the frame.
3. padding: 1 em 1em 1em 1em;
4. Means: top, right, bottom, left
5. Margin means: the spacing from one picture frame to another..

includes/templates/ech/css/stylesheet.css

1. use your ftp program to navigate and your editor to change the .css

Do you want the boxes on the right column the same as the left column???

[silverspring]

no, all my boxes are correctly placed, I just want to change their colours and sort out the fonts, but need a helping hand.

Also, can I edit whilst in the FTP or do I download those files, edit and then upload ?

what colors do you want the side boxes to be??

[silverspring]

at present they are are mauve/purple colour; I want them to be one colour and match up with the colour of my side panels; also the fonts on the boxes seem to be odd sizes - those need to be one size too
