[Paid] Multi-Level Tags in Sidebar

Aug 22, 2007 16:36

This code is almost identical to the tutorial found at s2expressive (which, in turn, was borrowed from s2flexisquares). That is because I blatantly stole it and adapted it slightly to work for Bloggish by changing the classes and one measly line of code.

As usual, you may change the stuff in green.

[Edit] Just when I thought I went and did something clever, I found out ( Read more... )

theme layers, tutorial:tags, tags, tutorial, modules:tags, modules

Oh, thank you. I really appreciate this... I don't want to be an ass but how do you get the numbers to stay on one side in a neat order and let me keep the scrollbar, I'm using this:

.module-categories ul{
height:150px;
overflow:auto;
}

It's separating the topics far from each other. See on my sidebar. I missing something small.

You have all
    's in the tags module set to be 150px high, including the "inner" one. You will want to specify that the second
      doesn't need to be that height:

      .module-categories ul ul{
      height:auto;
      }

Thanks for this. I was just thinking about how to add multi-level tags, as seen on the best custom CSS on LJ...I'll definately use this tutorial.

Love your new design for s2_bloggish, BTW, but are you done with it? I noticed the formatting for my post about the favicon tutorial was lost, and I did format it in HTML...is it supposed to be like that? I love your header, BTW...easily seen from across the room, my favorite kind...

I removed any margins that weren't defined in the layout. I am not finished with the design quite yet, though, but thanks for noticing it!

Aha! I didn't know there was one out there for Bloggish. I will alter this post a bit.

I just want to say thinks, Carrie...it was storming bad here all night so I stayed home, looked up your tutorials and did quite a few things with them...

1) added custom layers
2) added custom modules
3) rearranged modules
4) added multi-level tags
5) added a hits counter

There's other s2-bloggish sites out there, but yours is the only one that explains Bloggish in a way that makes sense to me. Keep up the good work!

This is a super-belated question, but how can I have »s in front of my category/solo tags like you have in that example pic? I can't figure out where to put it so that it doesn't show up on the subcategories.

Thank you, your posts have been so much help in setting up this new journal using the mysterious Bloggish. :)
