That's about it....Oh yes, one more thing:
If you find the position of Newer/Older post awkward (I do), you can switch their places easily. Making Newer posts appear on the RIGHT side, and Older posts on the LEFT side (like a book). To do this, go to LAYOUT ► EDIT HTML, and find the following part in code (CSS style):
#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: $startSide;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float: $endSide;
}
...just switch the float style, so it will look like this:
#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: $endSide;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float: $startSide;
}
...Ok, this is really it now....be creative, you can do whatever you imagine...
If you need help, or have some ideas, ask, share...
Smile!
