INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS

From the main LJ navigation bar:
Go to the LJ Customization Page. Make sure your journal has a SUBTITLE.

Under "2. Select a New Theme":
Enter "Smooth Sailing" in the search box and click the button. From the results, choose any Smooth Sailing theme.

Under "3. Choose a Page Setup":
Find "2 Column (sidebar on right) and click "Apply Layout." Click the "Customize Selected Theme" button on the bottom right.

Under "Display":
  • Under Presentation > Basic Options: Set "Userinfo Position in Entries" to "Right side of the entry."
  • Under Presentation > Additional Options: Set "Userinfo Position in Comments" to "Left side of the entry."
  • Click "Save Changes."


  • Under "Sidebar":
    • Choose no more than 3 sidebar options/boxes to display at the bottom of your layout. Make sure everything else is set to "hide." (Note: Less than 3 boxes are okay, but the layout doesn't look as polished.)
    • Click "Save Changes."

      • Use layout's stylesheet(s) when including custom external stylesheet = No

        CUSTOMIZATION & TERMS OF USE

        How to use custom colors:
        Open the "Superstar" stylesheet in Notepad or similar text editor and do a find and replace for any or all of the colors listed below:

        Blue (header): #193d49
        Pink (footer/sidebar): #ff2b6b
        Dark Blue (links): #00041a

        Make sure that any "word wrap" feature is turned off in your text editor before you copy and paste your CSS into LJ's Customization area.

        Regarding additional customization:
        If you know what you're doing, you're welcome to further customize this layout. Please give proper credit to circa77.

        Crediting:
        CREDIT IS REQUIRED FOR USE. It is the polite thing to do to let other people know where you got your layout. Acceptable crediting would be linking circa77 in your userinfo, or someplace obvious on your sidebar.

        Regarding Support:
        While I am happy to answer general questions/be reminded about things I might have missed, I DO NOT OFFER SUPPORT FOR MY LAYOUTS. Try s2smoothsailing if you need help, they have a very active, friendly community.

        Comments are greatly appreciated!
