Borders on L and R, Around Blocks, and Changing Header Color
Permalink
Hi,
Client would like:
1. orange borders on left and right of page a different colored header
2. rounded edged rectangles around the blocks.
Currently using the deafult and the dark chocolate theme, and I don't see any setting to add any borders. I do see border and header change options in “green salad”.
But there is that grass footer. Would have to get rid of the "grass".
Regarding part 1:
Can I add a colored border in the dark chocolate or default theme, or how can I remove the “grass” and widen the viewable area in "green salad" (it makes it too narrow)?
Part 2:
No idea. Plug- in or do I need another theme for that?

Thanks*

1. I am running 5.5.1, and I don't see any Greek Yogurt. I see moldy yogurt, and the Green Salad ones only.
Is it somewhere else?
2. Will look more into that plug-in, thanks for suggesting it.

It's not there because you probably did an upgrade to 5.5 rather than starting from a fresh 5.5 install (where it would've been included by default).
See attachment for 'Greek Yogurt' options.
You'll need to download a copy of C5 and take the theme from there.
Download the latest stable version here- http://www.concrete5.org/developers/downloads/...
"Follow step-by-step instruction below:
1. Download theme from our or any other website.
2. Inside zip-archive you will find other ‘themes’ folder or a folder with theme name. You should extract and upload (if your concrete5 is hosted on remote server) the theme folder to ‘CONCRETE5/themes/’ directory, where CONCRETE5 means the root directory of your cms.
Attention: the ‘themes’ directory is empty by default. It shouldn’t confuse you. This folder is used mainly for custom themes and not for themes distributed in default concrete5 pack. There is ‘concrere/themes’ directory (this one not empty) with default concrete5 themes. You shouldn’t upload there anything unless you are going to make some changes to default theme.
Tip: most probably there would be a ‘README.txt’ file with the theme. Please check the archive for such a file, it might contain specific instructions for the theme you’re installing.
3. It’s strange, but you’re almost finished with the theme installation. Now open your dashboard and go to ‘Themes’ tab (since concrete 5.2.0 – “Themes and page types” )
If you do everything properly you will see the newly added theme in the bottom of the page. There should be an ‘Install’ button. Click it.
4. Once the theme is installed, you can choose its design for certain pages. For example, open a page, click ‘Edit this page’ and then click ‘Design’ button. You should see the theme thumbnail among available designs. If you don’t see it, the theme wasn’t installed correctly, or if there are several themes installed, you might need to scroll the selection (click the right arrow button). If you select the new design, this selection will be applied to the page.
You’ll have to select the design for each page unless you activate the theme. To activate it, you should click appropriate button in the ‘Themes’ section of the site dashboard. Note: this action will reset all previously set custom selections, i.e. all pages will be associated with the new design.
Just a reminder: Don’t forget to check ‘README.txt’ file of your theme before installing it."

Thank you again - I dl'ed it, got the G.Y. theme and put it with ton the server with the other themes, but it didn't show up in the list.
Found info @http://www.concrete5.org/index.php?cID=277949,... seems there is a link from there to here, so now there is one in return.
Followed the instructions as best I could there. Went into one of the two databases, ran the query, but it's kinda off as there is no header or slideshow, at least in the preview.
More notes at the link above and will keep scratching my head and try to figure this out.
I do miss WP as other parts were hard, but the theme installation was easier...
