The border/frame around long blog entries on the main blog page seems to disappear a little ways after the entry starts, then reappears towards the bottom. This only happens with long entries.

Teasers use a sliding door techinque for the border images, they support teaser up to around 950px in height. If you require more than that you can replace the background images with longer images and modify the css (if needed) to accommodate the longer images.

The idea was to keep the images a reasonable size to support most users and uses, for example they are large enough to show a full size youtube video and some text, the title, submitted and links, but to not go overboard - I want to keep the file sizes as small as possible.

I think my original choices have born out to be pretty much on the money, since you are the first user to ask about this and the theme is in use on many websites. In any case it easy enough to customize for your own use:

You need to replace these two images;

There are two other images for the top left and top right, you can extend those also if your teaser will always be over around 120px in height.

Use firebug to drill down on a node teaser and see where each of images is applied.

That makes sense. I'll take a look at the images and make them longer to satisfy my needs.

Thanks again!

Hi,

Sorry I believe I have this issue too. I attached a picture of my problem. As you can see the blog view shows the blogs in little boxes and the the sidebars are squished below it.

Is there any way you can go into more detail on how to fix this? Sorry I am new to this.

Thanks,

Mike Wildermuth

This is not the same issue, and you've posted it again in #521884: When looking at the blog view, the side blocks disappear to the bottom of the screen. I'm marking this closed again since the OP's question was resolved.
