npf polls (all thms) + sodium + boron + future updates

TLDR: NPF polls update for all themes to match the styling better, sodium updates, boron bug fix, and a rambly list of things I'm working on.

As usual, to update your theme, please re-visit the link sent to you when you first purchased the theme from my ko-fi. The same link should have been sent to the email you registered with too.

NPF polls update (all themes)

NPF polls have been updated across all current releases (with the exception of magnesium) so the styling matches the theme better.

Sodium [v1.01] updates

New "Main font size" option: Choose between 12px or 14px body text font size

New "Navigation section username" option: Choose to hide or show your username + Additional fix to truncate long usernames

Fix for incorrect asker link colour in answer posts

Boron [v1.09] updates

Fix for mismatched tag background and font colours

What's Next

A quick list of things I would like to work on in the coming weeks, in no particular order:

Revamps (v2.00!) of a couple of my earlier themes; namely Hydrogen and Helium. These are the most in need of updating and refining... My latest magnesium theme actually started out as a revamp of Hydrogen, but it digressed far enough in style that it became its own thing.

An "Interphase" remake. Yep. I'm still proud of some of my older yukoki designs and am considering revamping some of them... I've actually gotten started on this remake but halfway through I got second thoughts about the direction it was going. Here's a sneak peek of what I've got so far:

New layout for xuethms, which also means a public release of my current theme!

Another big gaming database-related Notion template. This one's been in the works for many months, but I haven't had the energy to polish it up for final release. My motivation to work on this fluctuates with my interest in the game -- and (hint) now it's summer, which is a great time to get back into the thick of things and make big bells off of beetles...

A couple of pages. I wanted to try my hand at some uncommon page types, such as media review pages. I'm open to funky suggestions too, shoot away in the comments or in my inbox!

What's Next... but irl

If you've made it to the far end of this post, thank you for your time! 💕 For sticking it to the end, I'll treat you to a non-coding related life update: I'll be starting grad school in September, studying bugs (the non-programming kind) ! I expect things will get pretty busy in the next couple of months as I move my entire life overseas and settle into my new position. I'm nervous about the big changes, but excited all the same too. :) Fingers crossed everything goes well, and I won't end up abandoning my coding hobby in the chaos... T_T

I should really be oxygen because I'm always friendly and outgoing like seriously I'm the weirdest most awkwardest person you'll ever meet. I'm like always telling everyone my awkward stories, I have like over eleventy seven awkward stories. eleventy seven isn't even a number I really need to stop typing. Like now. Yep okay bye.

HI! OMG--your oxygen theme is GORGEOUS. the fact that you included the option to use hiragana makes me so happy bc I'm using it for my Japanese blog. It may take me a bit to figure out how to edit stuff bc I'm not that great with computers, but I just wanted to thank you. (Also, sidenote: is it possible for me to change one of the social media options on the theme? or is that set in stone?)

Hello!! Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy it (and the list style options) !!

You can add links to your social media by filling in the text options at the very bottom of the theme options. You only need to fill in your username for each respective social media. These are supported: tumblr (sideblog), instagram, twitter, kofi, spotify, etsy, twitch.

If you would like to add more links, follow the instructions under the cut.

Step one: Look for this code in the theme HTML. You can try using ctrl+f to search for "up-socials". If you have not edited your code, it's from line 2633 of the original code.

Step two: Add the following code before <*/div><!--socials-->.

<a href="URL" title="hover title"><div class="up-smi"><i class="cp cp-tumblr"></i></div></a>

Note: You may have to re-type the quotation marks. They should be the default double quotation marks (") you get when you type it on your keyboard.

The final code should look like this:

Step three: Replace the following texts in the copied code:

URL -> The website you would like to link to; doesn't have to be a social media website

hover title -> What the little popup will say when you hover over the icon

cp-tumblr -> Reference suiomi's Cappuccicons icon font and pick the icon you want to use, type its icon name here

That's all! You can add as many links as you'd like this way. Hope this is clear. :)

is there any way to get the "random" nav button on your oxygen theme to link to something else?

Hello! Thank you for your suggestion, I probably should've added this at launch. ^^; Please reinstall the theme as users can now edit the link and its title.

[xuethms]

Hello! So sorry to bother you again- I'm using your Oxygen theme and am currently trying to figure out if there's a way to move the menu buttons. I've looked at all the content and feature breakdown you linked to this theme but haven't gotten any lead, and looking the code doesn't help me much either as I only know a little bit of what I'm doing XD is there a way to move the buttons and, if so, how?

Hi there, and yes it's possible! Search for this code in the CSS by using ctrl+f to search for ".controlside {" or you can skip to line 559:

That highlighted 350px value is the key. Increasing it (e.g, to 400px) shifts it further to the left, while decreasing it shifts it closer to the right.
