I am using Firefox 21 and I see what you mean. It's strange and I have tagged this thread for Themes Staff attention.

Hi There,

Could someone please give me advice on how to prevent the titles of my blog entries from disappearing in the "Chunk" theme? If you rollover them, they reappear. But, I want them to stay on the page at all times.

Advice?

Thank you,
Kelsey

Hi, I'm trying to figure how to customize my links in the Chunk theme so I can change the color and so they aren't underlined, any help on how to do this universally?

This will do what you want, I think, but as you can see, it forces the main content container width to be 1150px in width and that means anyone with a monitor resolution less that about 1250px in width is going to have to scroll horizontally in order to see all of your page content, and for those people everything is going to appear as if it is mistakenly shifted to the right (comments will be along the right browser border with a huge amount of white space to the left of them.

.page-id-2 #container {
    width: 1150px;
}
.page-id-2 #contents {
    margin-left: 500px;
    width: 650px;
}

For the background image, do as I showed in the other thread on the background and content background except replace .archive with .page-id-2 (the about page).

Edit the body .home selector and make it body.category so that it will show only on the category pages as shown below. The second bit of code sets white for the content area. I'm assuming you will want the background image an white content background on the single post pages as well (after one clicks on a post title). I've used the "archive" body class so that it will show not only on the categories pages, but also on archive and tags pages.

body.archive, body.single {
background: url("http://imveryape.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/justice_in_concert-60.jpg") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
}

.archive #container, .single #container {
background: #FFFFFF;
}

imveryape — Thu, 16 May 2013 03:39:32 +0000

Hello all, I am looking to border my posts with an image. Very similar to how illogical computer does it http://illogicalcomputer.com. My posts only appear on the Best New Music, Hidden Gems, Best-of Lists and Thoughts page so those are the ones I am looking to border with an image. The actual background behind the posts I am trying to keep white.

Any CSS tips?

Thanks!

imveryape — Thu, 16 May 2013 03:31:07 +0000

Hi guys, looking to shift all of the content on my about page to the right. I want to keep it centred relative to itself (like the IMVERYAPE is still centred compared to the menu), but have it all shifted to the right, so that the turquoise "comments" ends up in the centre of the page.

I would also like to change my background image for the about page.

Any tips?

Thanks guys!

@gennynielson, since you are using a different theme, would you mind starting a new thread in the CSS forum on this so that it doesn't confuse people coming to this thread in the future. Thanks and I'll keep an eye out for your posting.

Hello everyone,
I am using the Book Lite template and I have the same issue, I would like to create a side bar starting at the top right just under the feature image to showcase the widgets.
Would it be a similar change to the CSS?
Thanks a lot for your help.

In my opinion you should make some other adjustments first: center the header and the footer, separate the right sidebar with a border, and increase the width of the main column (at the moment it's narrower than its actual contents - you're not seeing this because there's no border). Try the following:

Change this:

#header, #menu {
    width: 800px;
}

to:

#header, #menu, #footer {
    width: 103%;
}

Change this:

#contents {
    width: 590px;
}

to:

#contents {
    border-right: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
    width: 630px;
}

And add these:

#menu {
    text-align: center;
}
#menu li {
    display: inline;
    float: none;
}
.hentry .main {
    width: 600px;
}

I resolved the distortion! Thank you all for the help!

Last thing to fix now is the header image. I know I have to resize it, and then what?

Try clearing the floats for each individual widget. Here's an example:

#widgets .widget {
	clear: both;
	width: 100%;
}

thehuedawg — Sat, 11 May 2013 15:32:50 +0000

For some reason, that didn't seem to do the trick either! I don't know what is distorting it!

thesacredpath on "Create a sidebar for Chunk Theme?"

thesacredpath — Sat, 11 May 2013 03:22:23 +0000

Whoops! Sorry, I missed copying and pasting one new rule. Add this at the bottom of your CSS and it will fix the issue.

#widgets .widget {
width: 160px;
}

Again, sorry.

Thank you for the help! I applied the code and made a minor change (just changed background-image to "none" instead of linear-gradient) for personal preference. The only problem is that the sidebar seems to be distorted. Is there a way to alter that? I tried messing around with it, but the adjustments I tried didn't do the trick. If it helps, here are the codes I have already in place:

body {
background-image: none;
}
#site-description {
background: none;
background-image: none;
}
body {
background-image: none(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.22), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 80px);
}

#container {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
position: relative;
width: 990px;
}

#header, #menu {
width: 990px;
}

#contents {
width: 590px;
}

#widgets {
border-top: medium none;
float: right;
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 505px;
width: 160px;
}

And my blog is thehuepoint.com

Thank you!!

This thread wasn't about hiding categories on Chunk, it is about hiding something else. To hid categories in Chunk you have to use this:

.cat-links {
display: none;
}

Hi!
I'm having the same issue. I want to hide the "standard" category that is showing up on all of my posts.
I tried this:

.entry-format {
display: none;
}

But it's still there. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Oh, and this will also change the title of the posts on the single posts pages to black as well.

Add the following to your CSS. The titles on the pages have a slightly different selector.

.entry-title {
color: #000000;
}

troublecomesrunning — Thu, 09 May 2013 00:56:21 +0000

So I've changed the CSS of my main page to make the titles of my posts black, but when I head to my "about" or "contact" pages, the title of those posts are in the default grey color. Is there a way to change the color on these pages?

I deleted the title of these pages thinking it would just remove the title from the page, but it also deleted the link in the menu bar, too.

thesacredpath on "Create a sidebar for Chunk Theme?"

thesacredpath — Wed, 08 May 2013 23:32:28 +0000

Chunk is a little bit of a challenge. The sidebar can be moved to the right side, but it ends up making the site fairly wide to accommodate the added width for a sidebar, and it can mean that some people using narrower monitors may have to scroll horizontally to be able to view the sidebar. Also, it means making a new header image that is wider than the existing and inserting it through CSS too. Give this a try and see what you think. You will need to create a 990px wide x 170px high header image and upload it to your media library. When you get that done, post back here and we can help get that inserted into the header area for you.

Make sure and click around on all your pages and some of your posts to make sure that there isn't anything else that blows up with the following changes.

body {
    background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.22), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 80px);
}

#container {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    padding-left: 0;
    padding-right: 0;
    position: relative;
    width: 990px;
}

#header, #menu {
    width: 990px;
}

#contents {
    width: 590px;
}

#widgets {
    border-top: medium none;
    float: right;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0;
    top: 505px;
    width: 160px;
}

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to create a sidebar for the Chunk theme. I don't like making readers scroll all the way to the bottom to search, follow, etc. I have CSS customization, just still figuring out how it works! Thanks!

To remove the shading behind the tagline in the Chunk theme, add this to your Appearance → Themes → Customize → CSS panel:

#site-description {
	background: none;
	background-image: none;
}

To remove the gradient from the top of the Chunk theme if you have not used custom colors:

body {
	background-image: none;
}
