for @fractalkiss's anon who asked about ren's dreamwidth theme - i'm the creator and here's how to install it :) feel free to message me if you run into problems setting it up or if there's something you need help with etc. this theme is free for everyone to use btw
1. APPLY BASE THEME
Go to your theme customization page, and search for the "Tabula Rasa" theme. Apply the Plain version, and "2 Column (sidebar on the left)" for the Page Setup.
2. SET UP MODULES
Go to the modules page, and uncheck all the modules except for the following:
[1] Profile
[2] Custom Text
Make sure the numbers match as well so everything displays in the correct order.
[5] Link List
3 COPY & PASTE CUSTOM CSS
The most important part: adding the actual custom layout to modify Tabula Rasa.
Go to the Custom CSS section, and paste the code below into the Custom Stylesheet URL box.
In the Use embedded CSS box, copy and paste the entire code HERE.
4. EDIT TEXT SETTINGS
If you check your theme, you'll notice some glaring errors. Go to the text section, and input anything you want in the Text for the 'Custom Text' box for it to be displayed on your blog sidebar.
To fix the icons, make sure the settings under the Entry section match the image below.
5. ADD YOUR LINK LIST
In order to add the navigation links to your sidebar, go to Link List and fill out the link details like so: (recommended to have max 4)
# HOW DO I CHANGE THE COLOR SCHEME?
In the theme code, under :root, you can change the hex code for the folllowing variables:
--background
-- entry
--dark
--darker
--darkest
--font-color
--accent
--darker-accent
that's pretty much it! again, if there's something you need help with when setting this up, do send me a message. note that this theme is for dreamwidth and dreamwidth only, and will not work on livejournal. enjoy anons and friends!
