I'm making a few changes to a site and want to change the width of the container to go across the whole page. I'm a bit of a noob so not sure if I've don't it correctly, but want the width to be 3000px. I have the option of container id and container class. So basically what CSS do I put in which box?
The theme I am using is Porto by Spyropress. But looking for some CSS help:)
Thank you very much!!
In the CSS style page (or code) where you have the container, you should write the following line:
width:3000px;
The most straightforward answer would be to use the style="width: 3000px;" definition instead of the id or the class (even if it is not a really clean choice).
If you have no chance to add a style and you have called a CSS, you can do it by id or by class, depends on how often you will have Elements with 3000px width (single time go for id, multiple times go for class). In general classes and id link the parts in your CSS with your html definitions (named-links). They do not serve you with direct CSS, this is done by the style="" Element.
Some Code:
#some_id {
width: 3000px;
}
.some_class {
width: 3000px;
}
And some additional info about general css (because it is much more than just id's and classes if I think about the cascading part): http://www.cssbasics.com/

How do you set the height of the Angular UI-Select widget when an item is selected. I have a custom template for the selected item that includes an image and stuff and it gets cut-off.
Is there an option somewhere? I feel like it should expand to fit the template.
I just fixed this by using the css like
.ui-select-choices .item {
height: auto !important
}
and using the !important css function because ui-select has a lot of inline styles and it gets very tedious to fix. If you are using your own template, try not to use the .item class and use something unique like .select-choice-item Next time you might want to provide the structure in the template you're using so we can answer you with a more specific solution.
Is there a way or operator in CSS to assign a new style to specific element? I don't want to change original style because it belongs to a plugin and changing it will change it on all my pages. However I want to change the position of the element on a specific web page.
I also can't call those styles in my html because that CSS file is used solely in jquery plugin, you only put class="slideshow" in html div and thats that. I can change that CSS file to suit my preferences, however I don't know how to change it for specific instances?
In order to make a specific styling on a specific instance of your plugin, you should assign a specific class or id to a parent container of that plugin for the instance you need customization.
Example : you can give the id="special" to a parent of the plugin in the page you want customization.
Then you can use that selector to style it independently from other instances of that same plugin.
example CSS:
#special .slideshow /*other selectors */ {
/*your specific style */
}
In your scenario CSS specificity Rule will be helpful for you.
For example in your plugin you are using RED Font Color in class slideshow. Then in your another CSS file you can create a more specific Rule.
Check the Demo what I've posted above on comments section. Here is the direct link.
div.slider .slideshow {color:green;}
You can refer to the element by name:
#htmlitemname{
color: green;
}
CSS is cascading, i.e. it will apply it top down - general, class and then the id.
You can add !important to your css if you wish it to override any inline styles. So long as you make a style sheet specifically for that page, this should work for what you need. Hope this helps :)
I have placed images on wordpress page templates without any inline style attribute but its seem wordpress automatically add style tag with width and height set to zero.
<img src="wp-content/themes/ecoblog/images/hiw-image-1.png" style="width: 0px; height: 0px;">
Sometimes height is set to its original dimentsions and sometimes after complete refresh its values are zero.
What is causing this?
Please help me out. Thanks in advance.
Maybe it is caused by incorrect CSS. Zero values should not have dimensions, like px or pt. Like this:
<img src="wp-content/themes/ecoblog/images/hiw-image-1.png" style="width:0; height:0;">
this is because of template CSS styles are override your image style properties ..,the easy way is to wrap your image content and give div id and put your style code in template CCS file
inside(style.css)
it works as:
.class{
width:20px !important;
height:20px !important;
}
or if you want to remove Inline CSS completely , This inline css may be in .php files or in.js files.
You can search style in whole project , it is easier to search if you are using netbeans code editor.
Hope it may resolve.
I have two css files:
A main file (main.css)
A specific page file (page5.css). My page.css contains main.css (#import url(main.css));)
My main.css has this as one part of it that sets the height of the page
#content {
background:url(../images/image.png) no-repeat;
width:154px;
height:356px;
clear:both;
}
This works fine for all the other pages, but at page 5, I need a little bit more height.
How would I go about doing it?
You don't even need a separate CSS file necessarily. You can add classes to your body for various purposes, identifying page or page type being one of them. So if you had:
<body class="page5">
Then in your CSS you could apply:
.page5 #content {
height: XXXpx;
}
And it would only apply to that page as long as it occurs after your main #content definition.
Just re-define it somewhere after your #import directive:
#content { height: 456px }
for identical CSS selectors, the latter rule overwrites the former.
In page5.css, simply re-define the height.
page5.css
#content {
height:400px;
}
The other answers did not help me on a more complex page.
Let's suppose you want something different on page X.
On your page X, create a class at the body tag (body class="myclass").
Open the Developer tools (I use chrome) and select the item to be modified. Let's say it's a link ( a.class - 'class' is your class name of your anchor, so change it accordingly). The browser will give something rather generic that works on the developer tool - but messes up in real life.
Check the parent of the modified field.
Add the HTML tag to your developer tool as testing
f your new CSS path does not grey out, you are good. If it greys out, your selected path still needs fixing.
Let's suppose that the parent is a div with a class 'parent'. Add this path "div.parent >" to the already chrome selected a.class
The symbol > means you are going up on the tree.
You can keep going backward on the DOM all the way to body.myclass, or you may not need. There is no need to add the classes for the parents, but you can add them if there are great similarities on your pages.
This works for me.
I use CMS for client and client doesn't know CSS he use WYSIWYG editor to put content in pages. Client adds Paragraphs, images, images in paragraph (left or right floated), ordered and unordered list, Tables. Problems comes when he want to add images in paragraph (left or right floated). and without adding css class it's not possible. And i don't want to add <div> in content because WYSIWYG editor can't manage div and client works in WYSIWYG mode.
How to style content of pages without using css class?
You will need your user to add a CSS class/style attribute to the image somehow - without adding something to the image to tell it to float right or left it won't float right or left.
If your question is how the client can add the class without having to manually edit the HTML I reckon the only way is to dive into the WYSIWYG editor's javascript and write something a bit like this towards the end of the image-adding process:
var alignment = prompt("Type l to align the picture to the left, and r to align the picture to the right","l").strToLower();
if(alignment == 'r')
{
//line of code to add class "right" to the image tag
} else {
//line of code to add class "left" to the image tag
}
What the code to add the classes should depend on how the WYSIWYG editor works
You can try using element selectors or ID selectors to add styles to HTML elements without referencing CSS class in them.
Element selector would add border to all images on the page:
img { border:1px; }
ID selector would do the same only to image with ID 'image1':
img #image1 { border:1px; }
Still you will need to reference the stylesheet from your page.
There are lots of different ways you can make CSS Selectors that don't require CSS classes. For example, to make a rule that applies to all img tags inside p tags, you could write this:
p img { float: left; }
But how are you hoping to determine which images need to be right-aligned and which images need to be left aligned? Does that data exist in the document in any machine readable format?
A WYSWYG should have "align" property for an image (at least those I have seen). You can then use CSS attribute selector img [align=left] { float:left; } or img [align=right] {float:right;} This wont work on IE 6,7 though, you can use JavaScript to mimic this for those browsers.
