This customization is for the GENERATOR style.

Go to:

http://www.deadjournal.com/styles/edit.bml

Select the style ID you would like to customize.

Go down to the LASTN_CURRENT box and remove all the code.

Paste this in instead:

<tr>
<td class="meta" align="left"><span class="a%%lc:what%%" >[<b>YOUR 
MOOD</b> | %%value%%]</span> <span 
class="%%lc:what%%">[<b>YOUR MUSIC</b> | %%value%%]</td> 
</tr>

Change YOUR MOOD and YOUR MUSIC to say what you would like.

It will give you the nice brackets [ ] and | divider you have in your style, whereas the FAQ will not. Also feel free to change the dividers and brackets however you wish

Ex: replace [ with .: , | with : , and ] with :. for a nice effect.

You if you don't already have it, go down to LASTN_PAGE and put:

.mood, .amusic {
display: none;
}

within your < style > < /style > tags.

The finished result will look like this. Please note that I rarely input current music. To try it out on your entries, click on the link and replace where it says my username in the URL with your own.

A tip for alignment: you can get the dividers to align by adding spaces. To do that, type in &nbsp; after the shorter current name as many times as you need.

how do you put dividers between each entry?

Hope someone can help. thanks!

On my DJ Friends page, I'm having issues trying to get the background to show up. It's not a code error (I *think*). I'll use the CSS to tell it to show the image, fixed on the page. But when I look at it, the picture doesn't show.

However, if I look at the picture in a seperate window first, then look at the page again it works just fine. This has happened me with two background images now... Hmph. Any ideas?

Everyone should add howto to their friends list, as it contains tutorials on overrides. Any questions about the tutorials should be asked here. So far, we have a merging GLOBAL_HEAD overrides tutorial, and one for div layers (a box with a separate scrollbar)....
