Triton Lite: Some questions

    Hi…
    I have just set up my blog (www.nikkigoeswalkabout.com) using Triton Lite and have some questions regarding some modifications. I do have the Custom Upgrade package.

    * The text on the Home Page (Recent Posts) runs to either four or five lines. How can I standardize this so that the posts are all horizontally aligned?

    * Can the photos on the Home Page (Recent Posts) re bright all the time, not just when you hover over them? Currently only the Sticky Post photo is bright all the time.

    * Can I remove the “# Comments” section when you hover over a photo on the Home Page?

    * The order of two of my Recent Posts keeps getting reversed (The Games and Au Revoir France) from the date of publication.

    * Can I remove the Category Tags from the Post pages?

    * Can I remove the Comments facility from the About Me section but keep it for Post pages?

    * Can any customization be done with the Gallery and Slideshow functionality? On the Post pages, I would like to click on the top left embedded photo and have it open into the slideshow that appears when you open insert a Gallery?

    * How can I change the Header tagline to Title Case rather than UPPER?

    Thanks so much for your help.

    Nikki

    I’ve tagged your thread to have it moved to the CSS Customization forum where you should be able to get some help from Staff.

    You would need to use excerpts and make sure they all generally use about the same amount of text.

    * Can the photos on the Home Page (Recent Posts) re bright all the time, not just when you hover over them? Currently only the Sticky Post photo is bright all the time.

    .lay1 > div .imgwrap {
    opacity: 1 !important;
}

    * Can I remove the “# Comments” section when you hover over a photo on the Home Page?

    .lay1 > div .block-comm a {
	display: none;
}

    * The order of two of my Recent Posts keeps getting reversed (The Games and Au Revoir France) from the date of publication.

    This might be a side effect of the masonry script that Triton Lite uses. What it does is takes all the differently sized post blocks and rearranges them to fit with the least white space between them possible. That means that sometimes the post order won’t be exact. There’s not a way for you to change that here at WordPress.com, but it’s something you could control if you wanted to setup your own hosting account and switch to WordPress.org (I wouldn’t recommend it just for this issue though).

    * Can I remove the Category Tags from the Post pages?

    .post-meta .post-cat {
	display: none;
}

    * Can I remove the Comments facility from the About Me section but keep it for Post pages?

    Yep. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/

    * Can any customization be done with the Gallery and Slideshow functionality? On the Post pages, I would like to click on the top left embedded photo and have it open into the slideshow that appears when you open insert a Gallery?

    You can’t change the code for an individual image to link to the full-screens slideshow, but you could try adding a single image as a gallery. I tested it and it worked in my test. The only downside is you might have to keep the image full-width or centered since I don’t think you would have the same spacing/wrapping options doing it this way compared to using an image that has left and right alignment options.

    * How can I change the Header tagline to Title Case rather than UPPER?

    #logo h1 a {
	text-transform: none;
}

    Aside: apologies for the delay, I’m reviewing old threads and spotted this didn’t have a CSS-related reply and couldn’t help but chime in!

    Also, wow! The photos are AMAZING, and I love the travel stories!
