Hi, Ivan.

But your community has JS 4 look... your current template has something to say here :) As it styles it so look is a bit different than our demo e.g tabs.

Also frontpage image seems to be fine: prntscr.com/7k94vb
The same image is set here: prntscr.com/7k952b
May I change it to see if this feature works?

- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

Hi Michal,

sorry had had a chance to put more info as my laptop was dying.

I thing there is a conflict of the two versions, cos if you take a look here: traw.therockandwall.com it has the right look. This has been upgraded ro JS4 and than had incremental upgrades.

On the live site it went straight to JS4.07

I had to fiddle with overrides.php and change some css code, also for the landing image. I had to rename it as it kept overriding JS4's image. You ry to change the image within JomSocial, it will work because the default stock image of JS3 is renamed.

Please let me know if you need further information.

Regards

Ivan

Hi, Ivan.

I'm sorry but I can't compare both your sites as I get 500 error on your dev site: prntscr.com/7kap7r

Your frontpage cover issue is strange... but it seems to be caused by your current template. Do a simple test: switch your current template with Joomla! default one - Protostar. Then disable gk_msocial template. Next try to upload new front cover. Image will change. Also if you switch your current template with Protostar without disapling it. Front cover will change after CTRL + F5 (that is clearing browser cache).

Please, test it.

Hi, Ivan.

Hmmm, I don't see any significant differences... could you pint them out by marking them on printscreen? It will be very helpfull.
Please, upload printscreen here: prnt.sc/

Elephant comes from my changes. you mentioned that you can't change frontpage cover. I responded here: www.jomsocial.com/forum/installation/275...ng-to-js-4-07#134730
