Template Improvements

Published by

on

As promised, I keep trying to improve the new template. Here is what I’ve done so far:

1. I have expanded the list of recent comments to 40.
2. I have added the number of comments on each post. I confess that it does look a little clunky, and I will keep trying to improve it, but at least there is a number of comments right now.
4. I have changed the font away from the atrocious sans serif.

I’m slowly figuring out how to introduce at least some changes to this template. Please let me know what else needs to be done.

    It’s really nice to be able to see the number of comments so thanks for that 😊

      If there are other things people want me to change, I’m open to requests. I’ve had to use AI to guide me through the process of making these changes. It used to be a very simple and intuitive system, but now it’s become veritable torture.

          Great! Now I have to change the photo. I plastered it on there because the template comes with a photo of a strange, chirpy-looking woman, and I wanted to change that as fast as possible. This was the only photo of myself that I had on that computer. I had made it to illustrate my deep annoyance with my colleagues to a friend. It was supposed to be a joke. But it does look kind of weird on the landing page of the blog.

            I thought it must be your Serious Author photo!

              You can now imagine the joy of our Dean, who doesn’t have to see this facial expression across the table from him for two hours every other week. 😂😂

    Only the font of post titles is changed, rest of it is still sans serif.

    Inclusion of number of comments feature to each post is very useful.

      Ok, thank you for letting me know. I have now changed to a font called Bricolage Grotesque. Is anybody seeing the difference?

        There were supposed to be 40 recent comments in the right-hand panel, but the stupid template went and changed it back on me.

        The fight continues.

        Sorry, I meant Libre Badkerville.

        I’m going nuts here.

          It worked, and looks good!

          Thanks for trying to tame this into submission, and for being cognizant of preferences of your readers.
