WordPress Theme: Desk Mess Mirrored

Posted by Edward Caissie on May 30, 2009 in News |

Desk Mess MirroredWe are now featuring our newest theme, Desk Mess Mirrored, which we activated May 30, 2009. This theme is a re-work and update of the Desk Mess theme version 1.4 by geekwithlaptop.com we were using before. We have adjusted some of the general layout of the theme. The header graphics were entirely re-designed and created by our graphics people. The underlying code was reviewed and updated to the current standards (WordPress version 2.7 as of this writing). We have also corrected a few minor issues and extended the widgetized sidebar to include an upper half and a lower half.

We will be releasing this theme to the general public in the near future.

    I would like to move the blog title and tag line an inch or more down from its default location on Desk Mess Mirrored since my logo image cannot be seen with the letters in the way.

    How do I move them both or remove them completely, but still have the search engine still find the name and description. Thanks.

    • The Desk Mess Mirrored theme is better suited to have a graphic logo on the left or right side of the center card image.

      Your other option is to modify the header.php file and wrap the lines inside the logo div with their own class(es), then use CSS properties of { visibility: hidden; } on each div. This will make the text not appear on the page but still be readable in the source, therefore visible to search engines.

      All of these edits will need to be done after every update.

        Ed, I apologize, but a newbie at this.

        Modify Header.php: Not sure what you mean by “wrap the lines inside the logo div with their own classes”

        CSS Properties: Which Div?

        Could you post in example of the code please so I could insert it?

        This would help me exponentially and possibly others too.

        Thanks.

        • @JC – The “CSS Properties” would be for the new <div> that I suggested creating.

          As to posting an “example of the code” that is essentially a custom modification you are looking for and I would suggest reading the our WordPress Services page on our main site. I would be more than happy to review you specific requirements.

    I have version: 1.4.4.1 template.

    When I post, paragraphs are not separated. I can add 10 carriage returns, but it does not create a space between the paragraphs.

    I even tried the HTML option to create spaces between the paragraphs, but this also does not work.

    Thanks.

    • The WordPress editor and its related functions “strip” tags such as “carriage returns” and other related key strokes. Although this can be frustrating it is also a common occurrence.

      The current version of the theme that you are using (v1.4.4.1) does have a CSS property that creates a 10px space between paragraphs, if you wish to have a larger space between your paragraphs you will need to edit that property value (look at line 126 in the style.css file).


      PS: My apologies for not replying sooner. This blog is used more for working examples of my themes and as such I did not have comment notifications turned on … they are now. EAC
