Posted on August 6, 2007 | Category: Theme Hack
You might like to give Estranged a more minimal look, or (if you’re a Stripped user), you might decide you want a more conventional sidebar for a particular project. This is a WordpressTheme.Me hack that converts Estranged into a look more like Stripped. Or, if you prefer, it gives Stripped a more conventional sidebar and navigation, like Estranged. I won’t post a screenshot because basically it looks just like Stripped, with the structure of Estranged.
I’m basically posting my altered Estranged style.css for you to paste into your copy to try.
Upload Estranged, and change the name for all the image files, in the Themes>Estranged>Images folder. (This effectively comments them out, leading to an all-white background when the theme can’t find them).
Open up the stylesheet file (style.css) within your blog, by going to the Design > Theme Editor section.
Highlight all of the code in this file (you can copy/paste it somewhere - if you want a backup of the old version).
Highlight all of the code after the —-Code Start—- section on this page, and copy/ paste it over the old style.css content.
Press save, and that’s it. (It is very minor changes like font size and color, but it’s easier to give you the whole file than 30 little bits to do.)
You might also like to tweak and “comment out” sections of the sidebar, single post, and page template files, to your liking.
Good luck!
Please leave any comments or queries at the end of this page.
