I've built the front-end HTML/CSS code for a site which now needs transferring onto Wordpress. I'm using the html5blank theme as this was recommended for such purposes. I've watched a tutorial by Chris Lam and it all seems quite straightforward.
However, I'm having quite a few issues with my stylesheets - some rules seem to be applying correctly and some don't which is very strange. As per the tutorial all I've done is delete the styling code in the style.css file and replace it with my own.
Why would some rules apply and not others? Do I need to add something to another file (function.php?) that will allow my styling rules to work?
By way of an example, here's how my header and top section looks in my front-end home page -
And here's the (horrific looking) Wordpress version -
I've re-set the background image to include the link for the Wordpress version -
section#home {
height: 400px;
background: url("http://localhost:8888/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/homepagemain.jpg") center center no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
background-position: center;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
But it doesn't seem to want to appear.
On the nav bar, I've had to replace the tags with the following code as per the requirements in the header.php file -
<nav>
<?php html5blank_nav(); ?>
</nav>
Just wrapping the php code within an tag has no effect.
I've read that some themes require child/parent themes but that this shouldn't apply to the HTML5blank theme as its effectively an empty shell.
The same code has been transferred across into the style.css file. Do I have to delete the normalise.css files also? I was using reset.css for the front-end version. Any assistance would be appreciated.

it happens when your style-sheet is not properly added to your homepage.
You are giving this path, but this is not including the stylesheet, because the path is not correct.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/reset.css" />
try to add this code before your css directory
<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory')?>
So, it will be like that
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory')?>/css/reset.css" />
It will gives the base url of the site, so this code becomes
www.xyz.com/css/"your css file"
Do this for all link attribute for css, and make sure that all css files put up in that css folder.

I am trying to build a simple webpage using Bootstrap and D3, but I do not know how to get rid of all the whitespace at the bottom. I would like to get rid of it.
I have tried setting the min-height of the body and html to 100%, but it hasn't done anything. My code is here: https://github.com/eelegiap/thesis-code/tree/main/search
body {
padding-left: 3vh;
padding-top: 3vh;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
#searchCol {
padding-left: 6vh
}
form {
width: 25%
}
#results {
padding-right: 10vh;
}
#resultsContainer {
max-height: 30%;
overflow-y: auto
}
.result {
padding-left: 4vh;
}
.poemResult {
cursor: pointer;
border-radius: 10px;
padding-left: 10px;
padding-top: 5px;
}
#poemContainer {
max-height: 30%;
overflow-y: auto;
}

padding-top: 10vh;
padding-left: 15vh;

You are using padding-bottom: 20px; in your body. It created the bottom padding or some spaces in the down side of your websites.
You have to remove it.
To be honest, idk why this works, but I changed the max-height variables to pixel heights instead, and this fixed the trailing whitespace problem.
I have a problem that I want to solve,the date icon when I set the alignment to the left does not move the icon tried all the ways and no benefit but work with me transform but it needs to reponsive on all screen and I must do it for all screens
.zsg-cp,
.zsg-datepicker-wrapper {
position: relative
}
.zsg-datepicker-wrapper .zsg-datepicker-link {
color: #006AFF;
font-size: 1.34em;
line-height: 1;
position: absolute;
left: 7px;
top: 5px
}
<div class="zsg-datepicker-wrapper">
<input name="dateField" type="text" value="" id="cal1DateField" min="2019-08-22" max="2020-08-22" class="zsg-datepicker">
<a id="wrapper" style="text-align:left;left:0;float:left;transform: translateX(50px);" href="" class="zsg-datepicker-link"><span class="zsg-icon-calendar"></span></a>
</div>
Try this with your own CSS classes
.input-container {
display: -ms-flexbox;
/* IE10 */
display: flex;
width: 100%;
margin-bottom: 15px;
}
.icon {
padding: 10px;
background: dodgerblue;
color: white;
min-width: 50px;
text-align: center;
}
.input-field {
width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
outline: none;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<form>
<div class="input-container">
<input class="input-field" type="text" placeholder="Date" name="dateField">
<i class="fa fa-calendar icon"></i>
</div>
</form>
I'm struggling to get a font-awesome icon alongside a heading and paragraph like in the picture below:
How can I achieve this?
You can do something like this:
HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,500' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<div id="contenedor">
<div class="left">
<h2>Nice Work</h2>
<p>We possess within us two</p>
<p>winds. So far I have written</p>
<p>only of the conscious mind.</p>
</div>
<div class="right">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#contenedor {
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
background: #FFF;
float: left;
display: block;
}
.left {
float: left;
margin-right: 20px;
text-align: right;
}
.left h2 {
font-weight: bold;
}
.left p {
line-height: 18px;
color:#BDC3C7;
}
.right {
padding-top: 20px;
}
.right i {
background: #1DCFD1;
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 30px;
color:#FFF;
}

I am trying to reproduce a layout similar to Youtube to practice some of the things I've learned just recently. How can I reposition an embedded Youtube video?
I tried making a parent div for the embedded video with display: relative, but it's not budging.

You had an extra space in your #videobox div. Changing it from #video box to #videobox allowed the div to position correctly in your jsfiddle. I'm not sure if this is your issue on your site, but since most copy and paste, I figured I'd throw it out there.
This will move your videobox div where ever you want on the screen. This will move it to the center.
#videobox {
display: block;
height: 100%;
left: 25%;
position: absolute;
top: 25%;
width: 100%;

I have a text-rollover where an address-block appears on rollover. The address-block itself has two independent rollover links.
Here it is (I isolated the relevant top menu for simplification reasons). Please roll over the "contact" menu to see what I mean:
here's the example page
The email link works fine but I can't figure out how to make the phone link independent from the email link so that if you rollover the email link it leeds you to your email browser and if you rollover the phone line it dials the respective phone number (with href="tel:917-650...." etc.). If I have both links within their respective paragraph tags the contact rollover doesn't work anymore. Looks like the link tag needs to be wrapped around the address-block for the contact-rollover work, and nested links won't be the solution either. How can I resolve that?
