In your template, just before the </style> occurs (the end tag), place the couple of lines below (which you can change to your colors or fonts). This will just be an example you can start with as a test. This paragraph demonstrates what the code below causes.
#birdlist {margin:0px;padding:0px;background:navy;color:lightblue;font: 1.1em "Times New Roman","Trebuchet MS",Trebuchet,Verdana,Sans-Serif; font-weight:none; }
</style>
After that is established in the template, any time that in your post you place <p id=birdlist> at the beginning and </p> at the end of that text, you will create the font color and background color that you want. You might change navy to white and lightblue to black, depending on what you want. If you don't invoke the paragraph id in your post, it will just write in black over your current background (if any).
Don't be tripped up by the list of fonts; the computers in the world will choose the first one they come to that they possess. So if you choose a really new and esoteric font, you may be the only reader who sees it in just that font. But they will see it in the second, third, or fourth font listed.

| The main difference here is that you don't make the addition in the same place. When you open the template, you need to search for the Style items that you know, though they are not called that! Search for "Body" and other style (CSS) listings that you might already be familiar with. You might see something like this: body { background:oldlace; url("http://www.blogblog.com/harbor/rocks.jpg") no-repeat right bottom; background-attachment:fixed; margin:0; padding:0; font:x-small Georgia, Serif; color:$textcolor; font-size/* */:/**/small; font-size: /**/small; } Put the additional (birdlist) lines after the above, but BEFORE the closing } bracket. There are other places that would be correct, and I'm just pointing out one. This #ID is not limited to paragraphs; it could also be applied to a <div>, etc. |
THE END.
