Redesigning My.Opera space, blog and photo gallery in X easy steps [Part 5]

, ,

[Repeating the usual stuff]

Important: All tweaks and changes here are made on default template. Should work ok with any other, but will work 100% ok with default theme.
Definitions: All definitions used here are from W3schools CSS guide
Examples: All I show here is there just to represent variety of possible options. It is not intended to look good, just too look as different from the other ones as possible.

Where do I start?

1. Go to Preferences (http://my.opera.com/Username/account/)
2. Then go to Web page layout (http://my.opera.com/Username/account/layout.dml)
3. Then go to custom style sheet (http://my.opera.com/Username/account/usercss.dml)

Ok, I'm there... Now?

In Enter CSS: field enter some of the values I will explain below, and make sure you select Use my custom style sheet together with the current theme before clicking Save

[Repeating ends here]

Few last bits and pieces

Is it possible to add a search box (eg. blog search) into my top menu?

If not, could you please add a blog search box (Google Blog Search) into top menu? I think it is useful to us bloggers.

Greatly appreciate!

It's not possible... You can't add elements, just modify the way current look sad

王志军wangzhijun Tuesday, March 7, 2006 9:33:26 AM

Thank SerbianFighter for your quick reply.

I am wondering if you guys can add this feature into Opera blog.


Here is the code I have employed in my post. Hope it will help. The "USER_NAME" should be replaced to the specific username.
<form ACTION="http://search.blogger.com" METHOD="GET">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="white" id="smallsearch" class="search" style="width:auto; ">
  <tr valign="top" align="left">
    <th width="60"><div id="flabl" style="display:none;align=left;">Find</div></th>
    <td><input type="text" name="q" id="q" size="40" maxlength="256" title="Search" tabindex="1"></td>
    <td width="15"><input type="submit" id="btnG" name="btnG" value="Search My Blog" tabindex="2"></td>
    <td style="vertical-align: middle;font-size:82%" nowrap><a href="http://search.blogger.com/advanced_blog_search?q=&bl_fpy=t&bl_name=http%3A%2F%2Fmy.opera.com%2FUSER_NAME%2F&ie=UTF-8&ui=blg">Advanced Search</a></td>
  <input type=hidden id="hl" name="hl" value="en">
  <input type=hidden name="bl_fpy" value="t" />
  <input type=hidden name="bl_name" value="http://my.opera.com/USER_NAME/" />
  <input type=hidden name="ie" value="UTF-8" />
  <input type=hidden name="ui" value="blg" /></tr>
</table>
</form>

I'm not My.Opera developer, I just like this place smile
My suggestion would be to make a topic about it in this forum.

hi all.

Can give some one of you the CSS for chanching the Top menu color?

I cant find it.

Tjeerd

Benlapisdragon Sunday, March 26, 2006 12:01:36 PM

@peelen:
Yeah, it's
#topbar{
background:
}


if you want to change anything else up there,

#topbar a.toplink{}
will controll the links, their individual colors

#topbar a.toplink.hover{}
will controll the links when you hover the mouse over them

#topbar a{}
will controll the link for the comunity with the globe in it

#topbar p{}
will controll the p element that all of the links are encased in.

Hi all,

Can anyone give the code to change the page background to black. Not the content of the blog itself, but the actual page bacgkground behind the blog and the sidebars?

Thanks
