## Weaver II Snippets

Introduction

The previous Weaver had a fairly large Snippets document. Partly because there are so many new options, and certainly because of the CSS + option for any color option, the need for a lot of snippets has been reduced. Even so, there are some useful CSS tricks you can use to manually tweak your site. Here, in no particular order, are the current available snippets for Weaver II.

- Change Any Font Size

There are two ways to add styling. If the styling you want to modify goes with an element that has a color option, you can simply open the CSS+ button next to the color box. But a more common way might be to use the Advanced Options : <HEAD> Section : Custom CSS Rules box. These are added to the <HEAD> section of your site's HTML.

It is also possible to add specific CSS rules on a Per Page basis (follow the ? link from the Per Page options box for help), or for the Mobile View (Advanced Options:Mobile).

Change Any Font Size
  All the font sizes of various elements in Weaver are expressed as a percentage of a base font size. The default base font size is 12px, which can be changed on the Main Options:Font tab. But it is easy to change the font size of any element that has a color option (eigher color or BG color). Simply open the CSS+ option box next to the color picker. Then, in the box enter a new size for the text contained in that element:

      {font-size: 150%;}

Change the Comment Bubble
  Add a CSS rule:

      .entry-header .comments-link a {
      	background: transparent url(full-url-for-replacement) no-repeat;

  Size should be 28w x 27h, or modify height, width in the rule. Using a transparent .png is a good idea. See style.css for full example of how the comment bubble is defined. Note there is an alternate version used in the rtl.css file (right to left).
Change Margins of Footer Widget Areas
  Footer widget areas a automatically sized depending on how many footer widget areas actually have content. These rules may be modified to change the spacing of the footer widget areas.

      #sidebar_wrap_footer {
      	padding: 1em 3% 1em 3%;	/* top left bottom right */
      }

      /* One Footer Widget Area */
      #sidebar_wrap_footer.one .widget-in-footer {
      	margin-left:4%; /* give extra margins when just one */
      	margin-right:4%;
      }

      /* Two Footer Widget Areas */
      #sidebar_wrap_footer.two .widget-in-footer {
      	margin-right: 4%;
      	width: 48%;
      }

      /* Three Footer Widget Areas */
      #sidebar_wrap_footer.three .widget-in-footer {
      	margin-right: 4%;
      	width: 30.5%;
      }

      /* Four Footer Widget Areas */
      #sidebar_wrap_footer.four .widget-in-footer {
      	margin-right: 2%;
      	width: 23.5%;
      }

When you make the Footer (#colophon) Last
  When you check the "Footer <div> Last" option in the Main:Footer tab, the #colophon area will be logically placed after the #wrapper. You might be in for some surprises. First, the positioning of the #colophon area is no longer relative, so it ends up on the left. And if you change the width, the width of any footer widget areas will auto-adjust to fill the whole width. Same for the copyright/credit info. These three rules are likely to help you get what you want:

        /* make the footer sidebars the width you want, and centered.
      #sidebar_wrap_footer {max-width:800px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;}
        /* same for the copyright/credit stuff */
      #site-ig-wrap {max-width:900px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;}
        /* and if you make the Footer last, this will re-center it */
      #colophon {position:relative; margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;}

Hide Divider Lines on Vertical Menu
  You can hide the horizontal divider lines on the Vertical Menu Widget using this snippet:

      .menu-vertical, .menu-vertical li a, .menu-vertical ul ul a {
          border: none;
      }

Basic Styling for WordPress Custom Menu Widget
  This is a start on some very basic styling for the built in WordPress Custom Menu widget

      .widget_nav_menu {clear:both;;margin:0;width:100% !important;overflow:hidden !important;
          margin-bottom:10px;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul {margin: 0 !important; padding: 0 !important;
          list-style-type: none !important; list-style-image:none !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu a:hover{text-decoration: none !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul li { margin: 0 !important; }
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul a {display: block !important; padding: 0px 5px 0px 25px !important;
         text-decoration: none !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul a:hover {text-decoration: none !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul ul a {padding: 0px 5px 0px 35px !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul ul ul a {padding: 0px 5px 0px 45px !important;}
      .widget_nav_menu ul ul ul ul ul a {padding: 0px 5px 0px 55px !important;}

Post Information Line Icons
  You can specify your own icons images for the Post Info lines by adding the following CSS. Your icons should be about 20x20 px. You can add `padding-left` and `margin-left` to adjust how the icons are positioned.

      .entry-meta-icons .entry-date {
      	background: url(full-url/date.png) center left no-repeat;
      }
      .entry-meta-icons .by-author {
      	background: url(full-url/author.png) center left no-repeat;
      }
      .entry-meta-icons .cat-links {
      	background: url(full-url/category.png) center left no-repeat;
      }
      .entry-meta-icons .tag-links {
      	background: url(full-url/tag.png) center left no-repeat;
      }
      .entry-meta-icons .comments-link {
      	background: url(full-url/comment.png) center left no-repeat;
      }
      .entry-meta-icons .permalink-icon {
      	background: url(full-url/permalink.png) center left no-repeat;
      }

Alternate Menu Bar Gradient
  You can provide an alternate gradient for the menu bar using this snippet. This snippet overrides the background color. This version is a dark gray gradient. Change the color values for other colors.

      .menu_bar {
          background: -moz-linear-gradient(#383838, #272727);
          background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0% 0%, 0% 100%,
      	from(#383838), to(#272727)); /* older webkit syntax */
          background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#383838, #272727);
      }

Styling Menus
Weaver II uses standard CSS rules to style all of it drop-down, pop-left, or pop-right menus. This styling is quite complicated, but can be overridden. The code below shows the default styling use by Weaver II. The definitions that are subject to option settings are indicated with a "/*@" comment.
Note that '.menu_bar' is the default menu class. The two main menu bars (Primary and Secondary) are additionally styled with '#access" and "#access3" CSS ids. The Weaver II Pro pop-left and pop-right vertical menus use the basic '.menu_bar' styling, but are modified with '.weaveriip_vertical_menu', '.menu_pop_left', and '.menu_pop_right' classes.
If you want to modify how the menus look, you can do it in two ways. If you really want to override all menu, re-style the '.menu_bar' rules. If you want to override just a specific instance, you can use a leading class or id the same way '.weaveriip_vertical_menu' does.
Please note that the menu styling included here was copy/pasted directly from the main Weaver II style.css file. That file is subject to updating, and those changes won't always be updated here. For best results, you might want to start with the rules you copy yourself from the style.css file.

      .menu_bar {
      	font-size: 120%;	/*@ font size of menu items */
      }

      .weaveriip_vertical_menu .menu_bar {

      }

      	margin-bottom:0px !important;
