Dilectio Template

Gorgeous template, very easy to install, however, I am having the same problem with the copyright popping to the tippy top when I added a header image. Without a header image, the copyright is in the right place at the bottom. I didn’t “mess with any code” at all to put the header image in, just used the page element header widget to upload an image, and still get this problem. Any suggestions for a workaround?

Hello there. I have been using this template for the past few months and have really enjoyed it. I recently needed a change and wanted to go back to something simpler so I have reverted to a standard blogger template and now my date won’t show on my postings. I’ve switched the timestamp back to what it was. Any ideas? I also had to delete all the search and rss page elements by hand as they weren’t working. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
Lindsay

Please disregard previous question about date. I reverted my widgets back to normal and then the date was able to be shown. Thanks again for a great template. I’m sure I’ll use it again in the future.

Cheers,
Lindsay

thanks to your template i like it 😈 😈 😈 😈 http://kurt-paragas.blogspot.com/

I really like this template. I use it on my blog with a few modifications. 🙂

Thanks for your template! But I can’t seem to set my picture aligned at the CENTER and have the words start at the bottom of the picture. Although it previews correctly in Blogger’s post-edit, after publishing the post, it always comes up with the text wrapped around the picture. Any workaround for this?

Thanks for your template, I love it! I’ve done some modification to the width of the main and sidebar. It looks fine on Firefox but not in IE. I’m not sure what’s wrong.

The download doesn’t work for me– it just says that the XML page can’t be displayed after I unzip the file. I’m using IE7. What’s the issue?

Hey David, thanks for sharing this template. I’ve tested many other templates but none suits me until I found this one.

By the way, how do I change the 435 pixels width post area to 468 pixels and remain the current pixels of white space padding on the left and right side of the post area? I need to insert some banners there and most of them are 468 x 60 which cannot fit into the post area.

Any of you guys have an idea on how to do this?

Will be very much appreciated!

Kevin, find the ‘main-wrapper’ section and try changing the ‘width’ from 435 to 468. Does it work?

Hi Kye, thanks for your idea. I’ve tried that before but when I set it to 468px, all my middle bars and sidebars are moved to bottom after the post and comment area. I think because when the post area is set to 468px, it overlaps the sidebars so they are moved. So how do I fix this?

Kevin, you’ll have to shrink the ‘sidebar-wrapper’ accordingly. i.e. +33px on main-wrapper, -33px on sidebar-wrapper. See if this works?

Hi again Kye. Thanks so much for helping. I tried to set the main-wrapper 468px and sidebar-wrapper from 500px reduced to 467px (which is -33px), but now the middle orange bar overlaps the right sidebar, and a few middle bar moved to bottom of the page.

Is there any other solutions? Maybe we should make the white background (the actual body) bigger than 1100px? The problem is, I cannot find the left and right margin of the post area. So I don’t know which tag to edit.

The actual body is called outer-wrapper I guess, which is 1010px. I’ll try to increase it by 33px to be 1043px.

Great! It’s solved now! I have 468px post-area now heh Thanks much Kye.

That’s great! Just curious, why do you want to change the width to 468px? Now, your page is wider than my browser, is that what you want?

Cool site by the way, any tips for my site to increase my ranking? 🙂

Thanks Kye. I changed the width because I need to get one of the most common banner size which is 468×60 to fit into my post area. It looks good now.

By the way, which ranking are you referring to? I’ve posted some articles regarding SEO and how do we get ranked on my blog if you’re interested.

I’ve seen your blog and posted a comment there. Nice Dilectio template you have there. Good job bro.

I am having a problem with the time/date stamp. The cool graphic shows up, but no date or time. How do I fix this?

Thank you!

Forgive me for my stupidity. I have read the directions and now have it working just fine.

sreehari,
all you need to do is…
#1 – download & save this template & unzip the folder.
#2 – login in to blogger, go to ‘Layout’ page.
#3 – At the Layout page, click on ‘Edit HTML’, and you’ll see this “Backup / Restore Template”.
#4 – Click on ‘Browse’ & search for the file you downloaded onto your hard drive earlier. Upload the file.

#5 – Confirm delete of all Widgets (Click ‘Confirm & Save’)

and… voila! new layout 😛

yenz!!! help plss

heyy… i’m not sure why it didn’t work for u 😕 it worked fine for my other website http://allthebestsites.blogspot.com

sorry… 🙁

i mean, http://alldebestsites.blogspot.com/ my other blog

i got it but date doesn’t come on the blue header!!

you just need to change the settings, as per the instructions… “If your individual blog post date stamp doesn’t show up, you’ll need to make one more change. Go into your Blogger’s “Settings” tab and then click on “Formatting”. Next, change the “Timestamp Format” (it’s the 4th one down) to this format => “Wednesday, February, 2008″. Make sure you change the “Timestamp Format” and NOT the “Date Header Format”. Many people in the past have told me it didn’t work only to find out they were changing the wrong field.”

Hope it helps 🙂

yeah! 😀 😀 😀 😀 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

it worked for me !! thnx!! and love u!

I created a test blog in order to perforn new templates. My blog successfully came as dilectio. But i did not follow this process.
I did the follow:
download and sane template and then i went to blogger , i deleted the previous html and i opened the fresh and just only coried and pasted the new code. Everything was gonna be fine. But it does not show the blogger’s name above from the header of my blog..

Georgeouuuus, for real man 😯

Hey!!I downloaded this excellent theme, but the only problem i have is about the HEADER TABS. While i can create the tabs ”about” (and automatically ”Home”), When i click on ”About” it does not show me anything. I see i put a url there but the problem is: How can i edit this ”about” area when i create it??(so as to show me sth)..I do not know a lot about that. Plz help me…

Also: the copyright area on Internet Explorer 7 is shown below the blog but with firefox (new version) is shown above next to the header image. But it does not matter at all.Just mention it 😀

hello really nice template, but i have a problem, in my blog i have just put the template, when i check the blog it still shows last template, i click on some post and it changes to delectio, but then if i click in delectio header it comes back to the blog with the older template….=(
any guess of what could it be??

Hi,

I’d really like to use your template for my blog, but when I’ve loaded it up, it’s altered the formatting of my pictures and headings.

When I’m posting in Blogger, the Blogger preview shows the formatting I want, but when I look at the site it’s all messed up!

Could you please have a quick look and see if you have any ideas what I can do?

Hope you get to this soon, I don’t want to have my blog live with these formatting errors for long.

Thank you!
