    (2) For the ABOUT page in the top menu link:
    I just checked the NAVIGATION in V3 and can see the exact settings as seen on your screenshot. So, I toggled the DROPDOWN to ON and added the line:
    <li><a href=“/about> About </a></li>
    Nothing appeared on the page.
    Is this because of what you mentioned about V3 being different to V2?

    Be careful what you alter, as you’ve changed the behaviour of the categories page so now it does this

    The way this works is as below

    You drag the custom route to the navbar

    Select an icon

    Enable the dropdown, and add the code

    Save

    Reload the page, and you’ll see an additional menu created

    @phenomlab I shall go through this tomorrow and check what the issue on Categories is about, although I can’t see any issue at my end on Chrome and Safari.

    By the way, how do you upload a full-length image/photo onto a page like what you have on the ABOUT page?

    You won’t do now as I rectified it 🙂

    @phenomlab Oh wow! Thanks again, so much! I can see the page menu in the “down” arrow on the left navigation bar now.

    How do I get that one small tagline bar up at the top, perhaps next to the logo, as its a white blank space, since the menu is to the left now? I can create a JPG/PNG image of my statement which can be loaded there. If that’s a bad idea, then something I can type up there.

    @mventures I think I know what you’re after, but could you explain and clarify? Perhaps a mock-up sketch would help.

    @phenomlab Here is an example of what I meant:

    au header example.jpg

    Basically, having the tagline in the header, where the logo is.
    The tagline can be a JPEG banner that I can create and upload or it can be a text that can appear there.

    @mventures You could achieve this effect with a :psuedo CSS class. Let me have a look at this

    @mventures I forked this into it’s own topic as it deviates from the original thread.

    @mventures How’s this ?

    b7ecc749-3019-49cb-bd62-db573472c960-image.png

    To achieve this look

    1. Create a Brand Header widget

    d7e5bbca-0135-4967-983b-5c3bfe489723-image.png

    Save

    1. Go to admin/appearance/customise#custom-css
    2. Add the below CSS
    [data-widget-area="brand-header"] {
        display: contents;
    }
    .tagline {
        position: relative;
        margin-left: 10px;
        margin-top: 20px;
    }
    

    Save

    UPDATE: It worked 🙂 Thank you again. I added a few sentences and had to do a hard refresh for everything to appear and its exactly how I need it to be.
    Was that BRAND HEADER widget always there or did you create it just now??

    @mventures The brand widget is part of the Harmony theme, so it already exists.

    Also, I added another CSS class so that the tagline is hidden on mobiles. With all that text, it’ll wrap and take half of the mobile screen estate, which will look awful.

    @media (max-width: 576px) {
    .tagline {
        display: none;
    }
    }

    @phenomlab That’s a great idea! I didn’t think of that. Thank you.

    @phenomlab Sorry I am back on this one. I just noticed on the desktop a blue bar appears across the header region when you visit any of the categories. Does it have to do with your CSS class insertion? It doesn’t appear on the homepage but the channel pages only.

    UPDATE: That blue bar has now disappeared and I did nothing. Perhaps, you @phenomlab ?

    @Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them. More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons. I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.

    @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

    @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.

    @jac said in Forum customisation: @phenomlab said in Forum customisation: @jac 100%. Just setting up some free time. I’m on annual leave from work offer the coming 2 weeks so hopefully will have a bit more time then. Not a problem Mark, I don’t wish for you to use all your spare time doing that, just do it when you can, no issues I know you’re busy doing other things but when you get a chance mate I’m happy for this to go ahead along with the RSS script.
