It Worked!! Thanks so much. As I said, I am learning a lot but it is slow. I decided to try out RW as I am changing the structure of a couple of my sites and wanted more flexibility (and possibly a shopping cart). I kind of dove into it while trying not to fall into the black hole of Facebook. (I realized that could really take up lots of my time if I let it.)

I can’t wait to get these pages done and posted, I think you will like the way they look.

Doh! When did you sneak into the RW camp? I didn’t even see that :-0

Yes you can change the font for the quote. Open style.css and find the line that reads #gradientBox td {

Add the font-family property as show below:

#gradientBox td {
height: 100px;
vertical-align: center;
border: 0;
padding: 0 50px;
font-style: italic;
font-family: arial, verdana, sans-serif;
}

If you have trouble figuring out the font names, let me know. Font names with two words have to be in quotes like this:

font-family: ‘times new roman’, ‘lucida grande’, arial, sans-serif;

Suzanne, I was able to edit the quote in the index.html. Now I want to know if I can change the font… Is that possible? (I am learning so much in the change from iWeb to RapidWeaver – but it is fun!)

Thanks Suzanne. The fix worked well. Also good to learn how I can edit code in RW.

Hi Ken, good question – someone else asked me about that today too. Because that functionality has to be “in the code”, to change it, you have to open the theme up and edit the quote in the file index.html.

I wish there were an easier way to make that box, but the way RapidWeaver is structured, at least for now, the only way I could get the box in there was to embed it into the page structure itself. That means you have to edit index.html to change the quote or remove it.

To open up the theme and reveal the files, in RapidWeaver, first show the theme selection window. Right click on the Aerolite theme and then select Reveal Theme Contents in Finder… That will open a Finder window showing the theme’s contents folder. Open that folder and you’ll find everything else, including index.html.

For your other item, you can already move the parent menu left, center and right. You have to use the options inspector to do that. Click the little triangle on the Parent Navigation Menu Structure line or whatever it says. The alignment options are always under the structure menus.

Hi Suzanne,

Aerolite for Rapidweaver is simply beautiful. One question and one suggestion.
Question: How do you remove the quote from nery ford to add my own.

Suggestion: can you add ability to move horizontal menu left, right and center.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks
Ken

Jamie I found the IE 7 issue. I forgot IE will only read so many linked files so I had to remove one option :-/ This was Aerolite only. This fix will be in the download later today. You can build your pages all you want, but you’ll want to update your version of the theme later.
