Customizing Suburbia

    I am using the free version of Suburbia. I would like to customize it so that each “block” on the front page contains a larger portion of the full post, and so that the text that appears in a block is properly formatted (e.g., with paragraph breaks and links). Will an upgrade to the $30/year version of Suburbia do the trick? If it would require the editing of CSS, will help be available? I know nothing about CSS.

    What you are asking to amounts to edting templates and themes and that cannot be done. CSS editing can only be used to chnage appearance. It cannot be used to chnage the way any theme functions.

    This is a multiuser blogging platform. All blogs wearing the same theme are using the same underlying template and we cannot access the underlying files and edit templates or themes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/editing-themes/

    If you have CSS editing experience the upgrade will allow you to stylize the appearance of themes you find here > Appearance > Themes, but will not allow you to change the functionality, by editing the underlying template. It does not allow you to remove footer links to the theme designer or to WordPress.com. Also note that CSS is theme specific, so you cannot use the CSS stylesheets from other themes with the themes at WordPress.COM. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/custom-css/
