Move Tab Names

[matthewmsexton]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me as I’m trying to move the tab name from the top of the content box to the left hand side but not sure how to do this? Additionally, is there a way to switch the names from text to icons, sort of how Google+ (see attached) has their left-hand navigation bar? Thanks in advance!

Hello Mathew,

I apologize, but these are pretty heavy customizations you’re asking for, and unfortunately, this is just isn’t part of the support that the staff offers.

Sorry to hear that … can you at least point me in the right direction? What file(s) house the styling/functionality of the tabs? Thanks.

These styles are in /assets/css/theme.css which is compressed to /assets/css/theme.min.css.

For CSS changes, it’s a good idea to use a tool like firebug or Google Chrome’s built-in developer tools to locate them and then put the edits either in your child theme or in the “Custom CSS” option on your theme options page.

Also, here’s a helpful tutorial on how to use Firebug – http://vimeo.com/20917974. The only thing I’d suggest not doing is actually making edits to the theme’s CSS files, as it shows at the end of that video. However, the video serves as a good introduction to Firebug and how it can be used to find what CSS is effecting certain areas of your site without ever digging around in any files.
