  • @phenomlab I totally agree with you. If you take it exactly you should actually write a new css file with only what you really need.

    But and that’s the hack, you are definitely right, assuming you can do it 🙂

    I am definitely not a designer, I love php and c # but design is not my world at all and has never really dealt with it

    @riekmedia Yes, it wouldn’t be too difficult, but I’d need access to the site of course.

    On the nodeBB design. I’d be interested to see how you managed to do this? I’ve been thinking of doing something similar with my forum.

    @jac I simply integrated my website design into the forum with the header HTML and the footer as a widget

    phenomlab then helped me to eliminate the errors because I had a few difficulties with the footer

    @phenomlab Do you know when you can find time for it? I have to honestly say I can’t do it. Have tried it all the time but with the forum I have real problems to implement it. If only because I can’t access the <html> tag that makes my boxed design. Ne change to div did not bring any real success. I even find that it is much worse and more difficult in the forum software than with Nodebb

    @riekmedia I’ll try and have a look over the weekend. However, I’m not entirely conversant with discourse and it’s templating style, so would need to understand that first before we can make any changes.

    @phenomlab Everything is fine, if something breaks is not bad, it’s a bare installation.

    @phenomlab okay, I assume that this was done then, since nothing else happened. I will turn it off now

    @riekmedia Sorry, but owing to other commitments, I’ve not had any free time to look into this. Happy to do so - I just don’t know when at the the moment.

    @cagatay You’d target the body tag and use the below line of CSS background: url(/assets/customcss/backgrounds/default/default.png) no-repeat center center fixed; Obviously, you need to change the path to suit where your image is being stored. More info around the background property can be found here https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background.php

    @DownPW yes, that does make sense actually. I forgot to mention the layout of Sudonix is custom so that would have an impact on the positioning. Good spot

    @DownPW We just have to change the cycles automatically according to each period ? Yes, this is by far the safest I think it is possible to achieve the goal, I have already seen this kind of thing on a site without any perf problems. It’s certainly possible, but not without issues or impact to performance (in my view)

    @DownPW the ‘js’ code for the banner takes the time from the client, so what it displays really depends on the regional settings for the operating system. I’ve not seen this issue myself but would like to see some examples of screenshots if possible.

    @riekmedia I’ve applied some new CSS to your site. Can you reload the page and try again ? For the record, this is what I added #footer { background: #2d343e; border-top: 4px solid #2d343e; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 70px; padding: 80px 0 0; position: relative; clear: both; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; z-index: 1000; margin-left: -15px; margin-right: -338px; } The /categories page seems a bit messed up, so looking at that currently EDIT - issued some override CSS in the CATEGORIES widget <!--- CSS fix for overspill on /categories page - DO NOT DELETE --> <style> #footer { margin-right: -45px; } </style> That should resolve the /categories issue.
