Small Web September Check-In 4: Troubleshooting
It's time for Small Web September Check-In 4!
The loose theme of this check-in is troubleshooting! Have you run into any unexpected problems accomplishing something that you'd like to do with your project? Maybe you have a feature that you want to implement, but have no idea what you'd need to look up in order to do that. Or are there any questions that you have about the small web (maybe terms you find confusing) that you'd like to ask?
Whatever it is, add it to the comments! There's no obligation to take part in the theme, of course - you can just add a progress update for your SWS project, or share anything you want to discuss. The sky's the limit \o/
A bonus discussion-starter (optional, so no pressure to include this!): What was something you didn't know how to do when you started out on your small web project(s) that you've since learned?
(This doesn't have to be during the challenge - it can be anything you've learned while doing small web stuff).
As a reminder, this is the fourth of five ‘check-in’/comment points that will be published during the event – you can check out the schedule and dates for these posts in the event intro post. There’s no cut-off point for leaving comments on these, so you can add something at any time – you also don’t need to comment on every one or do them in order! The themes are a loose guide, but any discussion is welcome.
Also, a heads up that the date of our next check-in will be the 30th September (the last day of the challenge) - so whereas these normally go up on a Sunday/later on Saturday depending on your timezone, the last check-in will go up on Monday or late Sunday. So don't be alarmed if it hasn't arrived at the normal time!
For our last check-in with 'halfway point' goals and discussions, go here: Small Web September Check-In 3: Halfway Point

Also added my OC splash page and the first OC page for my WoL, but back on the struggle bus once again with making the splash page mobile compatible, cos atm it overlaps my damn navbar. So I think mobile compatibility and the music player thing are my main stumbling blocks at this point.
I did manage it for the shrines splash page so I guess I need to just poke that html and see if I can transfer some over. HMM.
EDIT: okay so after spending the whole afternoon in the coding mines, I've now come up with a style for my fic pages, put it into a stylesheet and successfully linked the damn thing to a test fic here! Also decided to do away with the navbar completely in favour of bottom navigation buttons, so I'll be adding those onto my other pages as well at some point, as well as sorting the CSS for all the fics I've got uploaded so far! I also want to add the same sort of < details > box to the bottom for fics with endnotes, so that'll be fun as well!

The fic styling looks super neat, really easy to read! I love the bottom nav bar idea, and the images you used for the buttons. I've been struggling with my own fic page design, but it's really smart to have only a bottom nav so that there's not a bunch of buttons on top competing with the fic AND fic information.

I definitely recommend the bottom nav, for that at least. I'm really preferring it over the sidebar, even if only cos it's a lot less of a hassle lol.
