I think there is a few modules that can accomplish that. Have you tried any? Dave |

Thanks for your kind gesture. As per the installation this is the procedure I followed. I downloaded it. 2. Use fireftp to upload it to the module directory in the server. But when I navigate like this: login>admin>module to check the code_block module I could not find it enlisted among the modules there. What else should I do? Thanks a lot.

Concerning the header, I simply want to have an image spread on it, if possible to remove the "HOME" navigating button. The image contains the name and logo of the gallery I'm designing. Possibly I'll so much appreciate if you can provide me with the html code to do that, and which directory should I upload the image to? Thanks for your tireless help. |

Couldn't figure out what you mean by the "/" of the directory after code_block. This is my procedure: |

@ Dave, words can't well express how much I appreciate your kind support. The no_home_block module worked like a miracle. Much thanks. Please, how do I change the position of the sidebar to left and customize the links. Is there any other module I can use apart from code_block? |

So you got the code_block module to work? If you got the no home link module to work then you should have no trouble with the code block module. Dave |

Yes. Thanks. The next thing I want to do now is to customize the links in the code_block. The link color should be in red and the vlink color to be pink instead of the default blue, and to move the sidebar to the left. Thanks a lot! |

You should be able to customize the links with some css. As for moving the sidebar to the other side, I would try a different theme that has that option. I think the grey dragon theme has settings for left right top and bottom for sidebar info. Dave |
