Altering Theme

(1/1)

babyxdeja:
What file should I be looking for if I'm wanting to tweak my theme a little?
On my forum the Hello *username* needs to be up a little bit. Same with the search box, it needs to be higher a little bit.

I have the Theme made by... Carbonize by, Crip

forum @ http://www.babyxdeja.com/forum

busterone:
The general rule of thumb would be in index.template.php and index.css. 
You may want to post in the support topic for that theme to get more precise answers.

ARG:
For the first part in index.css find

--- Code: ---#userarea {
    color: #8E8E8E;
    font-family: verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
    font-size: 0.98em;
    text-align: right;
}
--- End code ---

and try adding a margin such as below and make needed adjustments.

--- Code: ---margin-top: 10px;
--- End code ---

or

The 10px being top margin, then 0 (right), 0 (bottom) and 0 (left).

--- Code: ---margin: 10px 0 0 0;
--- End code ---


For the Search area you may need to make adjustments here to the (top: 14em;)

--- Code: ---#searcharea {
    background: url("../images/img/search_bg.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    clear: both;
    height: 31px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: absolute;
    right: 5.5em;
    top: 14em;
    width: 176px;
}
--- End code ---

and make margin adjustments here as well.


--- Code: ---#searcharea .inputbox {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    border: medium none;
    color: #727272;
    height: 15px;
    margin: 3px 0 0 10px;
    padding: 3px 3px 0;
    width: 145px;
}
--- End code ---

I don't have this theme to test it out but if this does not work let me know and I will install the theme and see what I can do.  ;)
