    Hi everyone,

    if one is graceful enough to have a look at my blog, will see a greenish line that separates one post from the following. It is a plain line slightly thick and I remember I enhanced it because I though it was good to show some graphic divide between each post.

    Now, after a few years, I would like to change this line but totally forgot how I did that, can’t find what I believe it is a JPG file and have no idea how to edit the page. Well I guess I have to upload a different line but HOW ?

    Thank you for your comprehension and understanding of my growing old, ugly and mindless.

  • The green line is showing according to a CSS class…

    .hentry {
    margin-bottom: 28px;
    padding-bottom: 40px;
    background: url(images/divide.jpg) center bottom no-repeat;
    }

    You just need to delete the last line from that class or change the class css in Custom code in your theme, like this …

    .hentry {
    margin-bottom: 28px;
    padding-bottom: 40px;
    background: none;
    }

    Thank you for your reply, divide.jpg is not the green line but a jpg that I use to separate different subjects in the same post, if I delete that I do not believe I reach for my target. I hoped that the green line was a JPG itself but I cannot find it anywhere. I hope what I am saying makes sense.

    Besides, I am not really familiar with the CSS coding, I think there is a WYSIWYG kind of instruction that displays the green line after each post, if I had to code a CSS I would not be able to do it.

    Sorry about that.

    Hi,

    You seem to have two different dividers on that page

    http://www.stefanome.it/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/divide_line3.jpg (the fancy design)

    http://www.stefanome.it/blog/wp-content/themes/twentytendot1/images/divide.jpg (the green line)

    Which other green line are you referring to?

    Hi,

    please let me be rudimentary in my explanations. I know I set up my blog but I removed from my memory all the steps I’ve made in 2012.

    OK; I am writing a new post. If I want to add a JPG that separates two subjects in the same post, I go to the library and search for “divide” and I have that grayish line I drew with fancy design. No green lines are shown. I add a block on my draft containing an image called divide_line3.jpg. Done.

    The green line you linked: http://www.stefanome.it/blog/wp-content/themes/twentytendot1/images/divide.jpg (the green line)

    is what I am looking for but cannot find it anywhere. It is NOT in my library otherwise it would show up when I key in “divide”. Where is it, how can I find it and edit it or change to a new JPG ? I drew this jpg and instructed that i wanted the green line between two posts and it does so, but how did I gave the instructions, I don’t know.

    I guess somewhere in the administrator menus there must be a section in which I am allowed to customize the appearance of my pages, specifically my line to separate two posts, but where is it ?

    Sal,

    suddenly all you said makes sense. The line is saved on my server as well as all sources and yes, I can code something. I have uploaded a new “divide” with filezilla, I still have to figure out which is the CSS file that contains the instruction about displaying the jpg file and the width assigned to it, but it’s a matter of a little patience and add some WD-40 to my synapses and the job will be done.
    Thank you for your help,
    Ste

    Good job. 🙂

    The divide.jpg file is in this CSS file, under the class .hentry

    Fascinating how I forgot everything and your suggestions at first were totally incomprehensible to me. Like you spoke a foreign language using an alien alphabet. 24 hours after I resolved I was hopeless and helplessly dumb, out of the blue one of my memory bank opened.
    Strange feeling, must be the result of one year of COVID.
    Now I can waste a lot of time trying to improve the look of my blog with absolutely poor results.
    Thank you again, hope you are or will be vaccinated soon.
    Ste.
