Hi everyone

I've tried and tried and now I need help. I'm updating my site and ran into some complications.

This is my site: http://kristiannorhave.com/

What I would like to do is in to be able to control the text in the Post-Nav box, so that it is not as big and bold as the headlines in the menubar.

And in the menubar I have expanding menu, with three expanding categories, well kinda four with the Information menu - which for some reason does not expand. But that's okay, because I would like to have Info, Links, Blog and Contact (which are in the Information menu) to be shown at all time and to be as big and bold as the expanding menu headlines.

I hope it makes sense.

I am not super good good at all this html and css, but with luck from the internet, a lot of things can be done the way one wants it. So thanks in advanced for any help.

Hejsa Kreller, first up it seems like you have a whole lot of inline styles that you´ve added, these will always overpower the stylesheet, I would suggest you remove all styling you have added inline and use the stylesheet.

At the moment you have this:

1. body {
2. ¬†¬†¬†¬†font-size: 14px;
3. ¬†¬†¬†¬†font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
4. ¬†¬†¬†¬†background: #FFFFFF;
5. }

As body affects all the text on your site the first step would be to define it as your "normal" or body copy text, say 12px, and then edit /create some rules to target the menu and anywhere else you want the text bigger/bolder, fx the menu:

1. #menu {
2. width: 240px;
3. top: 10px;
4. left: 80px;
5. position: absolute;
6. height: 100%;
7. background-color: #FFFFF;
8.     
9. }
10. #menu ul {
11. list-style: none outside none;
12. margin: 0 0 2px 0;
13. }
14. #menu ul li.section-title {
15. font-weight: 900;
16. font-size: 14px;
17. color: #333
18. }

Hi Blameme

Of cause, thank you so much. Perfect.

Now that's fixed, then I "only" need to figure out how to make Info, Links, Blog and Contact to be bigger and bold - I can turn off the headline "Information", but that doesn' t really change the fact.

Is there a way to "control" each menu section and it's links?

Hello,
No but you can make your Info, Links, Blog and Contact links manually via the post-nav box (in "settings") and add style to them.

Hi Mathieu

So I type Links, Blog, Info and Contact in the post-nav box and then how do I make it links? I've tried before to places html codes on text, but that doesn't work.

I've just tried to write Link, Blog Info and Contact in the Pos-nav Box and then placed

< a href=http://kristiannorhave.com/index.php?/info/links/>Links< /a >

on the Links text. That worked well, but then when I published it off, but then it just goes back to the front page.

Ok, let's learn how to properly make a link. First off, what's wrong with this?

1. <a href=http://kristiannorhave.com/index.php?/info/links/>Link</a>

Do you see it? You should...

1. <a href='http://kristiannorhave.com/index.php?/info/links/'>Link</a>

Ah, now there is a link that will work. Watch the little things with your html and all will be good.

;)

Hi Vaska

Thanks man, I see the difference.
Unfortunately it still doesn't work - it does work if go into Exhibits and down to Information and in Links press Publish 'on'. But then the link (named Links) in the Information menu i shown, so now it's there twice.

And how do add style to text in the post-nav box?

Kristian, I don't understand what you are trying to do.

Why do you need to add the "Blog" link twice for instance? Why are you adding links this way in the Post-Nav?

Hi Vaska

Sorry for my absence.

What I was trying to do is to instead of having a links (the Links, Blog, Contact and Info) in a "menu" (the Information menu) in the menubar, then having links directly in the menubar.

And then my question was, how can I make a link look like the menu headline, but act like a link?

So when you enter the site, you'll see in the menubar:

When we all live in the city
Oh home sweet home
Something something stuff

Contact
Info
Blog
Links

but when you press on e.g. When we all live in the city, it will look like this:

When we all live in the city
Bussing and Bike Grass
Oh home sweet home
Something something stuff
