How to convert open source theme - lakechicago - 2013-05-09

{{{ OK, I"ve worked this out myself }}}

I've found a theme on freecsstemplates.org that I like. I've posted it online on my site at http://www.dondemaio.com/bfuu/doubtless/ for demonstration purposes.

I need help converting it to get-simple's format. If you can do this, please let me know what your fee would be.

Thanks. I know there are instructions for doing this but I'm too new to this to understand them all.

Don

Glad to hear you got it done.

That template was showing an annoying glitch which I often find in free templates and I don't know why. Open it in a browser window which is narrower than the page body, then scroll across and some of what should emerge from the hidden right hand side of the page just isn't there - the nav menu in this case.

If I knew how to fix it I would tell you.

Let me know where the problem is. Thanks.

[attachment=184]I open your site in a small sized browser window, then scroll across to the right, and the right hand end of the nav bar is missing, see attachment.

You may need to meditate long and hard on this one. It is something to do with overflow:hidden; in the css I think. The fault is in the original template and will make your site impossible to navigate on phones and some tablets. Sorry to tell you that - your site looks great.
