@attempter
Good. I'm sure Staff will take care of this change for you. :)

OK, thanks, I'll ask at that link.

The all caps thing in the tag cloud in silver is the new black though is out of place. It needs to be fixed by staff. Not sure if that was the designer's brain fart, or staff's.

Yeah, I remember that one. My only reaction was, WTF?

@TT, if you find most everything you want in a theme and can live with what it gives you, then it is $15 you don't have to spend annually. I'll let both my CSS upgrades expire when they come due. I just don't blog here much anymore so there really isn't a need.

I'm also tired of those people, and I don't even ATTEMPT to answer their questions.

Remember the one who CSS'd his site so that all the text appeared about two inches to the right of the monitor?

I'm waiting to see is I really need it for eliminating unwanted features. I'm trying to keep onecoolsite as a basic wordpress.com blog so I can relate to and identify with the majority of my readers who don't have the CSS upgrade.

If you want some CSSin' done, just let me know.

Okay ... I'm bookmarking ..lol :)

I should clarify. If people are making an effort to learn CSS and how it relates to HTML (markup) and are having problems, I don't mind helping out, but there are those that buy the upgrade and can't even spell CSS.

"I bought the CSS upgrade and I don't know anything about it [followed by a list of 50 things they want to change]." Those are the ones I'm talking about.

You notice that they seem to gravitate toward "silver is the new black"?

When they were running around here in droves, I remember designing their entire sites for them one question at a time. Don't do that anymore - with anyone.

Well I just changed to the same theme in my test blog and put the Tag Cloud widget in the sidebar. I don't have tags that are SHOUTING! Mine are in lower case so you need to contact Staff. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

That should be an opt-in thing for penguin bloggers. They'd love it.

thesacredpath on "all caps in tag cloud"

thesacredpath — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 23:40:20 +0000

It would require the paid CSS upgrade and CSS editing experience.

My suggestion would be to contact staff and see if they will change it. It does look bad and they might very well agree and change it.

Hello,

Does my tag cloud have to appear in shouting capital letters? I'd prefer lower-case, but in poking around I couldn't see how to change it, if there is a way to do so.

Thanks.

husdal — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 13:36:49 +0000

As far as I am aware of there is no way to remove the boxes individually. Like it or not, it's the standard comment form that all blogs use. There may be other options for a self-hosted wordpress.org blog, but on wordpress.com, this is what you get, and cannot change.

Hi, I'm using Silver is the New Black theme. My blog is http://www.delaorden9.com and the question is how to configure the blog as not to show e-mail and user name box in comments. This really scares people from making comments. I have unchecked all the itens in discussion configuration page but it keeps showing the bloody box asking for name and e-mail. No matter if it is required or not but simply showing those boxes keep people away from comments (specially here in my country). Is there any way to erase those boxes from the theme or blog ?

What do you mean? If you want it removed, remove the Title in your main Settings page.

Heya,
How to disable header text on silver is the new black theme ?

thesacredpath — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 14:09:18 +0000

Do as I suggest. I tried the changes with Firebug on your site and it worked without messing up the sidebar.

By post title I meant #h2

thesacredpath on "Custom CSS causes sidebar title to be aligned to center"

thesacredpath — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 23:30:18 +0000

You want to center the post titles (the grey colored text)? The add text-align: center; to ".storytitle, #header, #menu form, #menu ul"

The above does not effect the widget titles.

If you also want the metadata below the title centered, then add text-align: center; to ".meta, .meta a"

toolbear2 — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 21:35:28 +0000

I centered my post title on Silver is the New black but the sidebar title is also centered. I want it to be aligned to the left. http://www.tooly228.wordpress.com

Thanks. But I just changed border-bottom:0px solid #FFF

vanillalounge on "Fix white box below sidebar on Silver is the New black"

vanillalounge — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 12:43:26 +0000

Yep, I oversaw something fishy:

You have:

#menu {
     ...
     border-bottom:30px solid #FFF;
     ...
}

Try:

#menu {
     ...
     border-bottom:30px solid #99ccff;
     ...
}

@vanillalounge

That does not work. And I do have Custom CSS.

vanillalounge on "Fix white box below sidebar on Silver is the New black"

vanillalounge — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 12:33:16 +0000

If you're using custom CSS, why don't you do a: #menu {background-color: #99ccff;} ?

toolbear2 on "Fix white box below sidebar on Silver is the New black"

toolbear2 — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 12:26:17 +0000

My site is http://www.tooly228.wordpress.com and at where my sidebar ends, I have a huge white box. How do I fix this so I may make that box to the background color (#99CCFF)

thesacredpath on "How to change the background color on Fadtastic theme?"

thesacredpath — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:48:15 +0000

As I said, it is under the #wrapper as a border. Look at #wrapper in the original CSS.

When you enter your modifications for #wrapper, you simply insert

border-left: none;
border-right: none;
