deandwyer 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2011 I want the slider to put right up against the page border. Right now it has a small gap on either side. how might do this? Please be specific...I'm new to the whole coding thing and only been with the platform for a few hours now :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate 3 Report post Posted March 7, 2011 Hey Dean - If I'm understanding you correctly, you're going to want to widen the feature slider. As I suggested in your other post, I would definitely install Firebug... I think it will be very helpful to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deandwyer 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2011 Hi Kate, Thanks for replying. I did download firebug but at this point it means nothing to me. Looked for a few tutorials online but most make too many assumptions about the reader to be useful for a beginner such as myself. My other problem is that even if I do understand firebug, I have no idea what to put in the custom style box which is really what I need to learn how to do. Got any specific tutorials you can point me to? DD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deandwyer 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2011 Oh and I am not sure about the slider. I suspect (probably incorrectly) that is the padding I need to change and not the size of the slider, but again that is just a guess at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deandwyer 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2011 Hey Tyler, Still playing around with the features, but I do want the slider and I would like it to butt up against the black outer page. Is is as Kate says, enlarge the slider or is it a padding issue. (note: I'm a bit of a blockhead with this stuff so specifics are great) http://www.gettingrealnow.com/ Cheers my friend, DD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deandwyer 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2011 Hey Bryan, I'm a CSS blockhead so here is how/where I pasted the code. Is that correct, because nothing happened if I did that right. http://www.gettingrealaboutabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/CSS-code-placement.jpg Cheers mate, DD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryan-hadaway 3 Report post Posted March 9, 2011 You want to paste it in: Custom Code > Custom CSS in your Theme Settings within the WP admin. CSS isn't as difficult as many think: http://www.pagelines.com/docs/changing-colors-fonts http://www.w3schools.com/css/ Thanks, Bryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
