Umm. Something pretty drastic happened to my heavily-modified Negatives layout. It formerly looked a lot like my lj,

vanessagalore. It seems like the text module (in the sidebar) has moved to the left, underneath my entries--it's a long vertical image; and the entries width is smaller than it was, and offset to the right. It's probably my fault, I don't really understand padding, etc., and fussed with the spacing by trial and error until I got it to look right, and I probably broke some CSS rule I shouldn't have.

I'm sort of busy right now and hoping I don't have to spend hours futzing with this. But like I said, it's probably an issue with my custom CSS, so I'll deal with it if it is my error.

I have a suspicion this is related to the new one-column option for Negatives (Bug 1798), but I can't currently see the custom text module to check. Can you check if you have one-column or two-column selected on the select style page, please?

Looks like it's two-columns. Wasn't that the only option when this layout first started? I've had basically this layout unchanged for maybe 4 months?? started working on it in May....just a couple tweaks as I noticed small changes due to code pushes.

There's also something wonky with my navigation at the top of the page.

**sobs**

Hmm, okay, what happened was, that we had to add more specific rules for the #primary and #secondary column positioning, and that is causing the default Negatives CSS to now override yours.

To fix it, in your CSS, replace:
#primary with .two-columns-right #primary
#secondary with .two-columns-right #secondary

The sidebar overlaps the entry area somehow, but it is at least properly to the side now.

What is up with the navigation at the top of the page? What should it look like?

That column positioning redefinition was easy enough to fix. Thank you very much.

The navigation links are fine; I accidentally had the page magnified last night when I was looking at it and it screwed with the padding, forcing the last link to the next when I was hovering.

Thanks very much for the help! It's so refreshing to get such speedy and useful assistance.

Oh awesome. Glad to hear it's all worked out!

I have the same problem, my module containing tags, page summary etc. has moved. In my original setting, the page got 'wider', forcing me to use the sliding left/right bar at the bottom (sorry, no native english...). So I changed my negative into another pre-made style (negative again) and the problem was fixed. But each time I open a cut in my journal, the module moves to the bottom of the post. That does not look nice. And I have absolutely no idea about coding or whatever, I use the wizard. So I cannot use your solution to mentioned later in this post. Can anyone help?

I looked at your journal and I'm not seeing a problem right now, but if you still need help, you should probably post your question at

stylesystem or

gettingstarted, or perhaps pm

afuna directly, who seems to be very knowledgeable about the Negatives layout (see above reply). I am just a user like you, with only limited experience, and you need to get your question to the people who can help you.

Thank you for pointing me into the right direction, I'll follow your advise. And you do not see the problem because I changed the layer / style after I could not fix it.
