Jason Theme: Layout Questions (CSS/sidebar/footer)

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello! I just switched to the Jason Theme and I have a couple questions how to further edit the theme to suit my newly launched blog >https://photoeast.net/<.

    1. Is it possible to make the sidebar static? I’d prefer to have it stay in one place while scrolling down the blog, rather than having a static bar at the top of the page. If that’s possible, is there a way of removing the navigation bar?

    2. How could I center the social media icons/widget on the sidebar?

    3. How could I decrease the white space in between the widgets in CSS?

    4. Is there a way of separating blog post date and category list? I’d love to have them in two lines, with the date at the top of categories. Would it be possible to center/justify them? Alternatively, it is possible to remove the category list from the top of the blog post, and leave just the tag list at the very bottom?

    *Lastly, a bit of a bonus question to confirm whether it’s possible to permanently “zoom out” the entire blog in CSS? I currently just use browser setting at zoom 67% and I’d love to have the blog appear as such at all times – not just for me.

    Thank you!

    Hello photoeastblog, visit the theme customizer > CSS.

    Here’s how to make the header static:

    .main-navigation--fixed {
    position: static;
    }
    
    #page {
    padding-top: 0;
    }

    Center the social icons in the sidebar:

    ul.jetpack-social-widget-list {
        text-align: center;
    }

    Adjust the space between the widgets:

    .widget {
        margin-bottom: 1.5rem;
    }

    Post date and categories postion and alignment:

    .posted-on {
    display: block;
    text-align: center;
    }
    .cat-links {
    text-align: center;
    width: 100%;
    }

    About the zoom out thing, actually, I was about to ask you to increase the body text size because it is too small for a regular visitor.

    It is possible to change the size of the overall structure, but the chances of messing up other things will also increase.

    Hope this helps and for any other questions, feel free to ask.
