[1] I MADE A LAYOUT



❖ Mobile friendly!
❖ Stylized control strip
❖ Comment, icon, tag, archive pages
❖ Sidebar image OR custom text
❖ Navigation, links, tags
❖ Extending/color changing links on hover


code here!
temporary live-preview here!

❖ Go to Select a New Theme and select Tabula Rasa, the Plain version.

❖ Copy and paste the code into the Use embedded CSS field under Custom CSS.

❖ Under Choose Page Setup (at the bottom), select "1 Column (modules at top and bottom; no sidebar)," aka the second one.

❖ Make sure Use layout's stylesheet(s) is checked. In the Custom stylesheet URL field, paste in: https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Economica&family=Satisfy&display=swap

❖ Go to the Modules tab. Move Link List, Tags, and Custom Text to the "Secondary Module Section." Make sure Navigation stays in the "Main Module Section."

❖ Go to the Presentation tab. For the options Select whether user interaction links are printed as text or using the available icons, Select whether entry management links are printed as text or using the available icons, and Select whether comment management links are printed as text or using the available icons, have "text-only" selected for all three.




Sidebar Image OR Custom Text

❖ Both options are provided in the code. You'll find them under the MODULES section and at the bottom, the latter with instructions. Essentially, you use one or the other depending on what you want. The code is currently set on image.

❖ To input either custom text or an image, you'll go to the Text tab and input what you want into the Text for the 'Custom Text' box field.

❖ If you want an image instead, go to the Text tab and, in the Text for the 'Custom Text' box field, put in the code below. Replace URL with your image url. Your original image SHOULD be able to be any size.





Known Issues

Very much not mobile friendly. I mean, it'll work, but the header gets in the way and the sidebar is at the bottom, oof. Idk, man. I'm going to figure it out eventually. I figured it out!!

❖ No dates on anything. It's a Feature(TM) but, in reality, I couldn't really figure out how to put them in and make them look good.

❖ Little thing but it bothered me. On the Mass Action part in the comment pages, I couldn't figure out how to change the font on the input/selector bit. :\

❖ I never added a credit link to myself and don't really know how, rip. If you please, credit me somewhere. Thanks. ♥

❖ If you find any other problems (or need help with something), let me know!

I think I'm missing a step for how to make the sidebar image show up - I've followed everything here exactly, but no sidebar image loads? Shown here but like - I'm not sure what I'm messing up at all, my bad.
