Hi Petehd,

Everything you can find it in the file http://www.homedesignsense.com/forum/bb-templates/kakumei/style.css

1) You can find in the 683 line of the css file (background-color)

2) Remove the background-color in the line 109

3) You can find it in the line 106

3.1) the sub-title in the line 89

You can ask me any other cuestions in my forum

Regards,

quicoto.

1. I am making some graphic changes to the Kakumei template. I am somwhat familiar with css but am not sure how to find the one that has the gray bars for “Topics – Add New” and “Main Theme”. I want to change the colors of the bars.

2. Also; I would like to remove the gray background box for the search bar. Can that be done? I am currently working on the header color in PS. The one that is there now was just a test and the next one will be solid and not gradated.

3. Where can I find the file to change the “Home Design Sense Interior Decorating & Design” to be able to change it’s color. It will need to be lighter to work with the new color.

The forum – http://www.homedesignsense.com/forum

Thanks

The last time I recall hearing about a permissions thing it was on a mac client as well. I remember the screenshot.

Why is there no style.css shown in the my-templates/businesslike/ directory?

Also, why is there a businesslike directory INSIDE the businesslike directory? Shouldn’t there just be one level under my-templates?

What is inside the directory my-templates/businesslike/businesslike/ ? Is that where your theme is? Is style.css present there?

Where did this header information come from:

Thanks for the reply, Chris. I’d be only too happy to disregard validation errors, except for two factors:

1. I’m still relatively new to all this html/css/php stuff, so I do learn from reading the validation reports.

2. I lean heavily on support from a variety of forums, some of which don’t share your casual attitude toward validation. I try to keep my code “clean” to appease them.

I looked at the second link you posted above. Does this plugin actually reside in the plugin library? I did a couple of searches and couldn’t find it. Or, do I just cut the code and put it in a file, and upload it as a plugin?

Thanks again.

Ok, so I noticed a small bug when posting this (because I went to edit and the edit link is tiny).

Line 99 of the stylesheet has “font-size:0.8em” (which seems accurate) but according to Firebug it thinks that the 960 reset is loaded afterwards as its loaded via 3 different @import commands (fyi – madness) because of how the browser handles loading of child stylesheets (it’s not concurrent). The 960 reset states that “font-size:100%” for everything.

So firebug, and chrome tools will all show that they’re applying “font-size:100%” which in essence they are, they’re just applying 100% of the 0.8em.

EDIT: ok, so a bit more investigation turns out that “em”s were decided to be used for some of the links and things on the left under the avatar, while “%”s were used elsewhere, and “px”s were specified for other text – so its really a bit of a mish mash that has high potential to look different on every system (especially as the css reset is loaded 3rd or 4th by the browser); compunded by a choice to use different looking fonts per system.

On line 103 of style.css we specify the font for the actual forum post text:

#bborg-discussion #thread div.post {

font-size:12px;

}

Now according to Firebug and chrome dev tools the font-size:12px is scored out (as if it’s being overwritten) because the reset is loaded after. But if you click on it in firebug to actually disable it, hey presto, the font actually grows to the default size.

Oh and more of an FYI as to why it’s hard to debug, after we apply our reset and our styles, we then have this added by the 960’s text stylesheet that will mess with the base units:

body{font:13px/1.5 Helvetica,Arial,’Liberation Sans’,FreeSans,sans-serif}

We basically play about with the font-sizes all over the shop in the stylesheets, and the fonts used too (i can see about 10 fonts listed).

[kevinjohngallagher]

Thanks for that Chris, v helpful.

Your text seems a tad bigger than mine but I think i might have found some of the issues.

1) The stylesheet specifies “Lucida Grande,Tahoma,’Bitstream Vera Sans’,Arial,sans-serif” and I’m not sure it was tested on all of those fonts.

There’s quite a large difference between the way Lucia Grande and Tahoma look on windows (and people with Safari on Windows can now have Lucia Grande; but its not there by default), and at 12px and above Tahoma and Arial start to look differently too…

2) In comparing what I can see on the forums and your screenshot, I’m getting 2extra words per line.

Either way, it’s a drop in text size of a considerable amount. And a drop in the amount of space that the text is given in comparison to the old theme (not that an increased avatar doesn’t help the conversation but…)

3) On the forum listing, since last week, some of the text has been of a bigger size than others. Specifically:

#bborg-discussions table td div {

font-size:14px;

}

Edit: I have no extrnal css stuff going on, which i put down to laziness

[free-russia-net]

Sorry, does anybody knows here how to settle such a problem. No pictures could be seen in my bbPress forum and the basic theme can not be changed, because no other theme works properly. For example, the is definitely a file on the server http://www.free-russia.net/bbpress/my-plugins/bbpress-polls/icon.png but .htaccess file of WordPress redirects to the 404 error page.

The .htaccess file is this one:

The blog is here: http://free-russia.net and the forum is here: http://free-russia.net/bbpress.

Could anybody say what should be added or changed to make the forum work properly?

[Kasparas]

How to resize avatar in topic view, i didnt find any size codes in style.css.

I want my forum look more like bbpress.org

[_ck_]

Oh and the font-size on the forum can be fixed by adding this to the end of the stylesheet.

body {font-size:100% !important;}

Everything scales because of the CSS reset and tests well in stylish for me as I can now read everything without squinting.

[kikko088]

I have a problem with this menu, http://www.endurodoc.net/forum/ if you go to “Officina” or “Varie” the sub page have a square in the right top, where is the problem for you?

also another problem, the apostrophe on the “Endurod” forum, the description of forum

kikko088

[kieranyo]

Take a look at the CSS, it’s all very basic stuff.

Firebug will show you.

[kieranyo]

#thread li.alt .threadauthor { float:right; }

http://katehumble.com/forum/my-templates/katehumble/style.css

Line: 476.

Firebug is your best friend people.

[kevinjohngallagher]

by default the forum includes an alternating “class” for each reply, all I did was use CSS to “float:right” instead of using the default “float:left” on each one.

[kieranyo]

Thanks everyone!

bforeste: it was very easy to do. Without sounding too technical, by default the forum includes an alternating “class” for each reply, all I did was use CSS to “float:right” instead of using the default “float:left” on each one. The existing html and css caters for this very well.

[gerikg]

@cNc What specifically did not work?

That thread you refer to is a mess. The WP Theme and the bbP Theme you sent me does NOT pull the style.css in the bbP theme folder at all. You might call the global variables but never this line <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bb_stylesheet_uri(); ?>” type=”text/css” />

If you did pull the style.css, it would look like this:

http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/654/carforum2.jpg

Notice the Green and white background and other changes.

But you don’t pull the style.css from the bbP theme that is why it looks like this:

@mr_pelle I couldn’t get it to work on the test site, email me?

[cnc]

@ chrishajer… topic has been resolved… My problem has gone..

==================================================

@ gerikg reply regaring your email

Because you was using the wordpress header you wasn’t using the style.css file in the theme. I left it so it’s not used but adjusted the other files.

…:: Yes I’m using my bbpress style sheet into wp style sheet…

I tried your files but they did not work…

Its was a matter of global variable ..

I’ve learned it from this post

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/seemless-wordpress-integration

<?php if ($forumpage == TRUE) {

bb_title();

echo ” :.: AKN&I”;

} else …

to add the forum feed:

<?php if ($forumpage == TRUE) bb_feed_head(); ?>

in my case I call global variables..

anyway thanks for your help..

============================================

@ pelle .. really sorry dude your plugin did not work for my forums.. I hope it will work for others..

and I hope you’ll make it better and simple..

all the best….

Hi gerikg,

i saw your post about your problems with the integration of the BuddyBar in bbPress – (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/buddypress-default-theme-for-bbpress). I found it after a short research in Google – because I’ve the same problems yesterday.

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'bp_core_admin_bar_css' was given in /homepages/0/00/htdocs/wpbpbbp/wordpress/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 339

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid call

But … I think I have an “hack” for you – I changed a few lines of code in my installation and now it seems to work.

These was “myWay”:

1. Deep Integration between WordPress and bbPress

2. Plugins on bbPress: buddybar-in-bbpress

3. Edit bp_buddybar.php – I only comment out the following lines

/* add_action( 'bb_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );

add_action( 'bb_head', 'bp_core_add_js', 1 );

add_action( 'bb_admin_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );

add_action( 'bb_admin_head', 'bp_core_add_js', 1); */

4. Edit bp-core-adminbar.php

Here I’ve a error code because auf “$wpdb” – so I commet out:

/* $blog_prefix = $wpdb->get_blog_prefix( $current_blog->id );*/

5. header.php in my theme

I put the Stylesheet-Link to my header.php file.

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://www.mysteria3000.de/wp/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css&#8221; type=”text/css” />

…

No the best solution – but it works for me.

[PokerForum]

Zaerl – thank you so much from your help! Two minutes of your time saved my a whole afternoon!

After deleting the hottags section, I changed the style.css slighlty in order to gain more space for the forum:

#front-page #hottags -> changed width from 170px to 0px

#front-page #discussions -> changed margin-left to 0px and width to 760px

Everything is perfect now, thanks again!

[Positics]

Thanks for the tip Zaerl, I will try editing the header.php as the css / background route was ruled out because the logo is where the reflexologist wants the link to be connected to or be fired up from.

I am new to this forum, so am finding my way round.

Thanks once again.

[zaerl]

Modify #header and eliminate the background property. Then on bb-templates/kakumei/header.php put your code at line 30. If you don’t want that h1 points to the forum change <?php bb_uri(); ?> with your link.

This is a HTML/CSS question and not a bbPress one.

[Positics]

I have a similar challenge to the earlier topic “Linking back to main website”. It is for a site I have configured for someone, who has asked for the same ability for their logo to have a link associated to it, that will take the user back to the home page of site that pointed them to the blog / forum.

I have installed bbpress 1.02

You suggested the following;

in header.php where the body tag starts.

===========================

<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>

<div id=”wrapper”>

How do I locate this logo in the top right hand corner of the header where the default bb_emblem was located?

“<a’x’ href=”http://www.reflexology-uk.net/site”><img src=”images/iior.jpg” alt=”ITEC” /><‘x’/a>”

===Note===== ‘x’ === added in string above to break code so it will print =====

At presentI have a logo situated in the CSS file as a background, which you suggest is not the right way to go about achieving this.

Any pointers will be useful. Thanks.

[chrishajer]

The home page link should not be to http://oakleafmeadowshoa.net/phpBB/default.html

but should link to http://oakleafmeadowshoa.net/ right? What do you mean by “Home”? Home of the website? What URL?

If you really want to link Home to http://oakleafmeadowshoa.net/phpBB/default.html then you will need to adjust the path to your CSS and images. I can’t figure out why you want that default.html in the forum folder though. Please explain further what you’re trying to do.

[juboe]

Okay, I did get the link to work going back to the home page. I added a copy of the default.html in the bb-templates folder. The problem is that it does not bring along the css styling. The website is password protected but I have created a temporary user and password so that someone can take a look at this and tell me if there is a way to bring along the css styling with my default page so that when users link back to the home page, it will look like it originally looks.

user: tempuser

pass: GNN*Xup*OrD, (don’t forget the comma)

oakleafmeadowshoa.net

Just go to Bulletin Board page and link to the forum. I put the home page link at the top left in the header.

Thanks,

juboe
