Fixing the Entry Title link format

Dec 05, 2008 21:22

If you're not using an Expressive/Mixit layout (Edit: or the default component layouts), chances are your entry titles no longer look quite right since Livejournal just changed the layouts to display entry titles as links.

This applies to my shared layouts too. So here's the CSS override needed to change the title link format in the layouts.

Huh, what's "not quite right"? Mine just look like they always do, except now they're links...

Component is one of the few which don't look different normally since the default link color for entry titles and entry title link are the same in the various themese (I think).

The one component layout I did though had a different color for Entry title links, so if people want the color changed back to the original on it, the code above wil do it :)

LMAO, I think people are bugged because some custom CSS layouts cause links in entries to be HUGE so the new link!titles are breaking their layouts and stuff >_>

I have NO idea what to do here. *sobs* I mean, I noticed my entry titles had turned into links, but...

I'm using, as you know, a layout from the fulcurm, and I'm terrified to fuss with it.

Go to this link:

You'll see the area you pasted all the codes from thefulcrum :)

I looked up the layout which is Bloggish and you just need to paste this code to the end of all that code:

.entry h3.entry-header a {
color: #379CB3 !important;
font-size: 1em !important;
}

That should be it!

Oh and if you want the underline gone, add the following line before the "}" closing curvy bracket:

text-decoration: none !important;

I'm rather glad they made the entry titles into links, but I think I'll be following what you mentioned to sansa1970 and get the underline removed. Thanks for the tip! ^^

Yeah, I just integrated the codes for bold and underline into the codes above too :3
