First of all, I would like to thank Broni for the great skinning guide for IPB 3, I have used it to help me finish off my first skin on V3.2.3 after the last time I skinned IPB was V2.?

However, I have a problem with the header on blogs.

My normal skin header is fine


But, my blog header has a clash of the navigation buttons over the top of the blog header


Can anybody help me out to solve this please?

[Broni]

I need a link to your site to take a look.

[Lefty]

http://www.toontask.com is the site, my blog shows the problem on http://www.toontask....-electrobrains/

It looks like I need temporary login.

[Lefty]

I have temporarily set it up so Guests can see blogs, if you still need a temporary log in, let me know

It looks normal to me:

Ah, the skin I have been working on wasnt available to guests, try now & chage the skin to DreamTask 2012

Hopefully, we will get there soon

Looks normal as well:

[Lefty]

there, it does, but once you look at a blog, it looks like the pic in my first post http://www.toontask....-electrobrains/
There is text under the buttons which is saying what the blog is called (You can just see it in between the first two navigation buttons

Also, the search bar is in the wrong place which makes the nav buttons go onto 2 lines

Change value in red:

}

I tried that in the ipb_skingen.css and didnt make a difference, what file should I be doing it in?

[Broni]

Oh, so you used skin generator to create a new skin.
I'm not really familiar with that feature.

Try to add this line:
min-height: 64px;
in ipb_syles.css (same section - "#branding {")

[Lefty]

I used the skin generator to start it off because I was playing around a bit, but since then, it has all been done manually and virtually everythign has been changed from the original generated skin.

What file should it have been in?

Oops, I missed that bit on your last post.

Thanks, I think it didnt show up before because the header image is 128 pixels high, so I changed it to 128px and it now works.

Thanks for the help, you can close this topic now.

Good news :)
