New .newpost on 11-03-2016
This is my 11-03-2016 post to truly demonstrate that on today’s day of class my code is still working properly and applying the gray round cornered rule with yellow background color and a large red headline on the site while still under the 2012 theme.
.newpost
This post demonstrates the successful completion of adding new code within the post loop of the (book recommended) Twenty Twelve child theme index.php file; and hard coding the following CSS style rules into the Twenty Twelve child theme style.css file.
.newpost {
padding: 8px;
border: 2px solid darkgray;
border-radius: 10px;
background-color: lightyellow;
margin-bottom: 50px;
}
.newpost h1 a {
font-size: 2.5em;
color: red;
}

Delving into the Loop
This is was my first “newpost” after adding new code to the Twenty Sixteen child theme index.php file and then coding customized CSS styles to apply to the new class named .newpost. It was suppose to highlight the most recent news post on the page. (Classroom assignment to complete the exercise from the WordPress: The Missing Manual book.) As you can see from the image below I failed at getting it to work properly.
