   How do I change the list style type option and color in the shortcodes?

   Hello,

   In order to create a "fancy list", you have to add the respective shortcode, and then create a regular unordered list inside that shortcode. Finally, you can specify the color by adding a "variation" attribute to the shortcode.

   For example:

   [fancy_list style="check_list" variation="green"]
   <ul>
       <li>Item #1</li>
       <li>Item #2</li>
   </ul>
   [/fancy_list]

   Here you can find a showcase of the different list styles available: http://themes.mysitemyway.com/infocus/shortcodes/fancy-lists-shortcodes/

   And here a guide on using the shortcodes color variations: http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php/Using_Shortcode_Colors

   Thank you - that's helpful. On this page http://northshorewebdesign.net/services/packages/ is there a way to get the blue box that has the word 'order' to stretch so it doesn't look so disproportionate?

   Hello kevinritt,

   Try this,

   <a style = 'padding-left: 50px; padding-right: 50px;' class="button_link hover_fade large_button aligncenter" href="#"><span>Get Started</span></a>

   And then play around with the left / right padding values until it looks good.

   Do you mean wider? taller? Increasing the padding like I suggested in my previous post should be making it bigger but if it's not what your wanting then take a screenshot and highlight how you want it to be bigger.

   Thank you - that did the trick. I didn't realize you could substitute html for the shortcode and have the same effect.
   Thanks for the help!

   Not sure what could be going on there. Perhaps just an Opera quirk. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5443974/opera-outline-rendering-bug

   Try navigating to Dashboard -> your theme -> General Settings -> Custom CSS and add this line,

   .post_grid_image img { border: 0px !important; outline: 0px !important; }

    I tried adding php in the sub footer text where the copyright is listed. It didn't show the current date. Is there a way to add the current date dynamically like: © Copyright 2008 - <?php echo date("Y") ?>

    You'll need to use a shortcode if you want to display it there. I'm sure there are bunches of plugins that offer this, http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=display+date&sort=.

    Or you can even create your own, http://www.doitwithwp.com/insert-the-current-datetime-in-posts-or-pages/, just copy that in /wp-content/themes/[your_theme]/framework.php at the very bottom.
