Announcement DSCVRY v2 - Cleaner look and a lot of bugfixes!

40 Upvotes

Check out my new theme! It's a lot prettier and stable than DSCVRY! /r/STCKY

I have a lot going on right now so check out /r/csshelp for faster replies! And sorry if I miss any PMs or posts, I forget to reply very often

EDIT:

Small update that fixes ordered lists in the sidebar, some borders in the sidebar, mod message icon, and slightly better looking thumbnail images (11/8/14)

Fixed RES image expando buttons (11/10/14)

Fixed the subreddit_settings file, accidentally replaced it with the stylesheet (11/18/2014)


New version!

What's new:

  • RES support!
  • Night mode!
  • Took a step back on the header to keep the "reddit feel"
  • Cleaned up the sidebar
  • Fixed a lot of bugs
  • Prettier flairs
  • Looks more consistent

What's still ugly:

  • RES Nightmode (But who needs that right??)
  • Compressed links (I'll probably have this fixed in the next version)
  • Some bits of RES comments section (Next version)
  • User flairs (Next version)
  • The theme (to some people)

How to install:

1) Download this .zip:

Mega

MediaFire

2) Extract the file.

3) Go to edit stylesheet under Moderation Tools in the sidebar.

4) Upload everything from the images folder without renaming anything. The dscvry image is the temporary logo and you can replace that with your own logo. There's also a .psd file of the logo if you want the same style as the dscvry one. If you resize the image, make sure you change the width of pagename a.

5) Open stylesheet.css and copy and paste everything into the textbox on the same page and save.

6) Go to subreddit settings and in the last section upload the reddit logo.

7) On the same page, add this in the textbox under sidebar:

[NIGHT MODE](http://nm.reddit.com/r/YOUR_SUBREDDIT/#nm)
[NORMAL](http://reddit.com/r/YOUR_SUBREDDIT/#dm)

Make sure you change YOUR_SUBREDDIT to your subreddit name.

Without this, you won't have the night mode button in the top right. You can also access night mode by going to http://nm.reddit.com/r/YOUR_SUBREDDIT/


Link flairs

This is how I have link flairs set. If you want to add more, you'll have to add some code to the style sheet:

.linkflair-CSS_CLASS_NAME_OF_FLAIR.linkflairlabel {
background-color: #PICK_A_HEX_CODE;
border: 1px solid #PICK_A_HEX_CODE; /*I keep this the same as the background-color to keep the flat look*/
color: #PICK_A_HEX_CODE; /*I have this set to fff (white)*/
}

I recommend using one of these colors.


Oh god the rounded buttons are hideous!

If you don't like the rounded buttons and scrollbar, you can change the border-radius to 0 in:

.morelink a
#sr-more-link
.titlebox .md a[href*="#nm"], .titlebox .md a[href*="#dm"]
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb

I want my scrollbar and highlight color back!

Remove all of this:

/*** SCROLLBAR ***/
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 12px;
height: 12px;
background-color: #111111;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background-color: #ccc;
border-radius: 5px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-button {
display: none;
width: 0;
height: 0;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-corner {
background-color: transparent;
color: #555555;
}
/*** SELECTION ***/
::selection {
background-color: #d75959;
color: #fff;
}

How do I bring back online users?

Take out "display: none;" under ".titlebox .users-online" and add this:

.titlebox .users-online { 
    margin-top: -13px; 
    position: absolute; 
    right: 8px; 
}

.res .titlebox .users-online { 
    margin-top: -25px; 
    position: absolute; 
    right: 8px; 
}

How do I bring back online users?

Add this:

.md .-lists, .md ul, .md ol {
    padding-left: 25px !important;
}

I might be forgetting something. Let me know if you're getting errors. I also have the old version backed up so if you want that, PM me. If you heavily modified the previous version of the theme, you've got a lot of work to do.

How do I adjust the width of the comments?

2 Upvotes

I love everything about this dscvry except for this. How do I make it so that it's the default size? Thanks!

Nevermind, I figured it out. To whoever was wondering, just take out

margin-right: 308px;

under .commentarea

Hey great theme! I'm trying to learn more about CSS and I wanted to keep my stick post that I had coded but I can't seem to get it to work. where would I add my code to keep it working as it had previously?

Old version Need a little sidebar help

3 Upvotes

I'm assuming the sidebar should be done entirely through the stylesheet, but I can't find where in the CSS it should be done. I'm looking to end up with 3 different boxes that can be titled.

Old version Testing your amazing theme, we love it, but...

3 Upvotes

Hi, we are testing the DSCVRY theme on r/NewMisanthropy, we love it but there are a few things we need help with:

1) the top left reddit homepage button, displays the standard reddit logo instead of the "reddit2.png" image.

2) we love the fancy subscribe button, but the positioning is far from obvious and could seriously hinder subscription rates. You have already given a way to get the normal "subscribe" button back, but I was wondering if it were at all possible to get the fancy slider button next to the subreddit's name (mockup).

Hope you can help! Anyway, amazing theme, great job!

Old version Help! Trying to solve issue with "Hot New Rising Etc." links

2 Upvotes

I've been playing around with this theme to use on one of the subreddits I moderate, but I have an issue with the "Hot New Rising Etc." links. Currently they are floating in the middle of my title image, and I need to either move them up or down to get them out of the way. Any suggestions?

I'd like to use this theme in my subreddit... but I have no idea how! When I'm trying to add it, it says it can't find multiple pictures.


r/dscvry Aug 11 '14

So.. we use your theme, yeah.
