3. During this process a Dialog-Box will appear asking Whether you want to Delete or Keep Your Widgets. Its up to you to decide. After this the template is installed.
Configurable Features:
1.Navigation
2.Pagination
To change the number of posts to be shown on using pagination find the term postperpage ( Using CTRL+F ) ,There will be a script something like this
<script type='text/javascript'>
var home_page="/";
var urlactivepage=location.href;
var postperpage=3;
var numshowpage=6;
var upPageWord ='Previous';

</script>
You can change the number values as you like in the above code.
var postperpage=9; → Changes the no of posts that will show up on clicking any page number.
var numshowpage=3;→ Changes the number of linking to show in the widget
Note: Make sure that you also set the value of Number of Posts on Main Page (Go to Design > Page Elements , Click on Edit option of Blog Post and then Number of posts on main page: ) to same as that of the postperpage value.
3.Rounded Edges of Image
img {
-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
-webkit-border-radius:4px;
-moz-border-radius:4px;
border-radius:4px;
background-color: transparent;
}
img:hover {
cursor:pointer !important;
filter:alpha(opacity=50);
-moz-opacity: 0.80;
opacity:0.8;
}If you want you can delete it ,but if you want to use this selectively then I suggest add a .image attribute before img like this.
.image img {
-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
box-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
-webkit-border-radius:4px;
-moz-border-radius:4px;
border-radius:4px;
background-color: transparent;
}
.image img:hover {
cursor:pointer !important;
filter:alpha(opacity=50);
-moz-opacity: 0.80;
opacity:0.8;
}Now for applying this to any image just add class="image" into that image's HTML code4.Link Nudging
There is a CSS code present in the template for using simple link Nudging . If you want to apply it in blog, then just see the following code:
<div class="css3_nudge nudge">
<ul >
<li><a href="#" target="_blank" >BlogLovin</a></li>
<li><a href="#" target="_blank" >Bloggers</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
You can see the demo of Link Nudging in the Demo Blog's Sidebar.
