Awsome, Just one question. How do i get the photoshop templates to work? Thanks and nice theme
You don’t really need the Photoshop templates to just use the style. If you want to customize the header background, you would open up page layout.psd in Photoshop, make modifications as you see fit. Select File » Save For Web, and specify a destination. In your destination, the following files will be generated: header_bg.jpg, content_top.jpg, content_bottom.jpg, page_bg.jpg and footer_bg.jpg. Just upload them to trueblue’s images folder, replacing the originals.
I love the layout but You could make comments look a lot sleeker.
Thanks. I like the way it is. Nice and simple.
Too bad stock K2 doesn’t support alternating comments.
how can u add the alret message?
and if i install this new version, will my old settings be lost,
you see i already installed true blue a few days ago, and i am a newbie so it was a lot of work customizing it a bit.
thanks
I’ve got this installed on my site at http://www.joycedarrell.com/ but for some vague reason, my text are all really spaced out, some ideas/help would be invaluable
Im still waiting for you steveo. When you answer to my question about localizating True Blue-theme? I need help, becouse it didnt work with version 1.3. Few days are gone… But dont worry, I can still wait for you!
Just my 2 bits, but wouldn’t localization be done in k2 itself?
You had on your blog side notes a while back. Does this new realease support that and how would I make it work
Kaye: By default, k2 justifies the text. To turn that off, open up trueblue.css and add this line of code:
@#page #primary .item .itemtext { text-align: left; }@
Yazeez: for alerts, just give a paragraph or div the class “alert”, for example:
@<p class=“alert”>this is an alert</p>@
Junttura: It’s a style now. Just download the latest k2 svn and follow the instructions in the K2 Forums.
blue42richman: They’re called Asides in K2 Options. Select Sidebar Asides and pick a category for them. The ones that I’m using are enabled through the plugin: K2 Rolling Asides.
